Floating Away

"Oh.." She said, embarrassed now. She looked at the river, then to the ground, and finally up to Shade's face.

Shade's eyes were red again.

"Huh?" She said in a low voice, staring into Shade's red eyes.

"What?" Shade asked, wondering why he was being looked at differently.

Akira shook her head, and then looked into his deep, red eyes once again.

Shade noticed why he was being stared at and clenched his eyes. He opened them and they were black again.

"There back to normal.." She said in a low voice, as if she were to say it to her self.

Shade did nothing about the comment.

Akira looked at Shade's eyes once more, and looked at the river. I know that it wasn't my imagination! Just what is it exactly? She thought.

Strange thoughts raced through Shade's head. His eyes kept trying to go red again, but Shade tried his best to not let them. His eyes seemed to flicker for a while, until they settled at black.

"Um... Shade.." She mumbled, still looking away.

"Yes..." Shade replied, looking out at the lake.

"What's with your eyes?" She asked in a low voice. "Y-You don't have to answer if you don't want to!" She stuttered, her voice more hear-able now.

Shade looked at the ground. He didn't reply.

Akira looked at Shade, and then she looked away. "S-Sorry for asking." She murmured.

"Don't be." Shade muttered, his smile came back.

Akira looked at Shade's smile, and smiled back. She loved him, and his smile.

Shade yawned, and lied on his back.

Akira looked at Shade, then at the rising moon. It was getting pretty late and dark. Her white hair shined in the moonlight.

Shade's black hair looked shiny against the moonlight.

She looked at Shade's glimmering black hair in awe.

Shade was looking at the sky, but felt Akira watching him.

Akira blushed a little as she kept staring at him.

Shade started to doze off into sleep.

Akira watched as he slowly started to sleep, and then at the glimmering river.
