Floating Away

Shade regained conciousness. He looked around.

Akira giggled a little.

Shade remembered Akira was still there. His eyes turned red again.

She stopped looking at the river and looked back at Shade. She noticed that his eyes were red again. "Shade? Your eyes again.." She said in a low voice.

Shade clenched them shut again, and opened his eyes. They were black, but they were seemingly sparkly.

"Shade." She said with a serious face. "I want to know why that thing happens with your eyes." She said, really anxious to know.

"I'll tell you some other time." Shade said, avoiding the subject.

"Okay.." She said, a bit disappointed.

Shade's eyes turned red again, but then back to black. He sighed.

Akira looked at the big, full moon, trying to to be so curious.

Shade picked up a flower.

Akira still looked up at the moon. Lunar climbed onto her lap.

Moonlight was going to go up to Shade, but saw Lunar. He approached with caution.

The flower that Shade was holding turned red. So did his eyes. He blushed.

Akira looked at the appearing stars. Her hair flowed in the breeze.

Akira's hair lightly brushed against Shade's arm.

Akira smiled, still staring at the moon and stars in awe.

Shade smiled because Akira smiled. He sighed, then looked at her, then back at the lake.

Akira shivered. "It's getting cold." She said in a quiet voice, looking at Shade.

Shade nodded. "Yeah..." He agreed.

Lunar meowed to Moonlight. Akira shifted her self a bit closer to Shade.

Shade attempted to put his arm around Akira, trying to keep her warm. Moonlight meowed, his red eyes flashed.

Akira blushed and looked down at the floor. Lunar let out an amused purr.

Moonlight did the same. Shade's eyes turned red again.

Akira leaned against Shade and smiled.

Shade smiled too. His eyes a soft red.
