Rose was quite comfortable with Henry having an imaginary friend. After all, she had one when she was little but Henry wasn't so little anymore.

Mallory Walker was always fascinated by stars. She was entertained at the fact that something so lifeless, could gleam so brilliantly. She never understood the way you could look into the sky and see something that once lived 10 millennia ago. She was enchanted by it. Maybe, just maybe, she was up there too.

"You can see me." She repeated to herself.
"Yes I can see you" The boy huffed. "I'm Henry, and you are?"

"No silly. That is my name, what is yours?"
"M-Mallory."
"Nice to meet you M-Mallory." The boy giggled.All Rights Reserved
