"What is this?"

I was sitting on a cloth, under a shade of the tree, nibbling on a piece of loaf. Across from me was the man that called himself Everett.

I look down at my attire and I realized that I was still wearing the same yellow dress with paper flowers in it.

"Temper, you're droning off again love," I turn to look at Everett and I met his eyes. Sea green with a hint of sapphire blue, so alluring. "Everett?" My voice sounded high and girly so I cleared my throat.

Everett grinned at me and offered me a piece of meat, "Open your mouth love, let me feed you," he said and I opened my mouth, following what he said without even thinking.

I chewed silently and avoided his gaze. I turn to look at my surroundings and it took my breath away. I saw mountains and a vast ocean. Flowers were everywhere. I smiled, "It's so beautiful,"

"Yes, I know,"

I turn to look at Everett and found him staring at me. Heat rush up to my cheeks and I duck my head, embarrassed.

We stayed like that, in silence and enjoying the view. I already finished the piece of loaf I was nibbling on and I lied down on the ground, enjoying the way the grass tickled my bare skin. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, allowing the sweet scent of flowers to invade my senses.

A warm hand suddenly wrapped around mine and I peel my eyes open and glanced at Everett. He was lying down beside me, the basket between us was on his other side, giving us a large space in between. His eyes were closed and a smile was playing on his lips.

My heart thudded in my chest.

He was perfect in every angle. Something stirred in me, the same feeling that I got before I was beheaded, before my head was separated from my body, my eyes found someone hiding in the shadows, looking at me with eyes like Everett's.

I stopped smiling and stared at Everett, "Who are you?" I whispered. The wind must have carried my voice towards him because he opened his eyes and turn his head towards me.

"Remember,"
