• And so we sat beside one another, untill the day was upon us and the sun was rising. From there we went to seperate tree's to sleep the day off, awaiting darkness once more. He fell to sleep instantly, and I watched his peaceful form for a while. He looked happy, sleeping quite deeply and soundly.
    I took the necklace I wore in my thumb and forefinger, watching the sunlight reflect the moon and sun marked itno the pendant.
    Making a necklace this complex and magical was long. I should know. I made this necklace.
    But the hours of work and magic I had put in it! It took over a year to make a necklace that could protect a Vampyre from the sun entirely, and make it so in a way that only I could weild it. If you looked closely, you could see the magical essence of all five elements - fire, earth, wind, water and darkness, of which so far I was the only vamp in history to control all five. There were only five, and yet they could produce some serious damage.
    The moonlight shone through the tree's, the sun having set about five minutes ago. I got up and walked to David.
    I took one look, and smiled.
    He was sleeping so soundly. I would not wake him up.
    Instead I climbed the tree he slept near, watching the view and dangling my feet in the air.
    I had to fumble a bit, though. The black jeans I wore were not climbing material. My sleeveless red shirt was falling, and my black needle high heeled boots were aching my ankles as I climbed. But I managed, and I watched the fine view before me.


    He stirred around ten pm, while my feet were dangling in the air, and I smiled, watching him get up and look around.
    "Fayne?" He asked.
    "Up here."
    He looked up towards me, then had to look once more and rub his eyes, as if he wasnt sure I really was there.
    "What the hell are you doing up there? And why didn't you wake me up?"
    "Simple. I'm sitting on a treebranch, watching the moonlight view. I didn't wake you up because you looked so peaceful in your sleep."
    He smiled. "Want to come down, or I go up?"
    "I don't know."
    "Okay. I'm coming up."
    He croutched on all fours a moment, and shot up in the air like a cannonball.
    Good idea. I should have thought of that instead of climbing.
    He landed on the branch above me a moment later.
    "Missed the branch."
    "No big deal." I stood up on the branch, and reached up to the one he sat at. I pulled myself up, the wind whistling through my ears as I sat back down. I smiled, watching the moonlit view from a slightly different perspective.
    "We will have to move fast to make up for the lost time."
    "We have a long time for that. The vortex is fresh, so it will take about a month to be strong enough to swallow the Village Of Night. and if we do come across too late, we won't be engulfed by it."
    "True." He looked at me, and I closed my eyes, dreamily enjoying the calm moment.
    He kissed my lips for the shortest of moments, for hell knows why, but then jumped down the tree.
    "Come down now. I'll catch you."
    I jumped down the branch, the wind soaring around me and the tree's passing by me in a blur.
    Then he caught me ever so carefully in his arms.
    "Thanks." As a small little thank you, I returned his kiss briefly, and he looked at me and smiled.
    He let me down off the grip of his arms around my waist, and took my hand, walking with me to the road.


    We walked on, untill near dawn without a word. Yet we didn't have to speak.
    He led us to a smaller version of our previous resting spot, and we sat under a tree, watching the sun rise out of the ground.
    And then he fell asleep, his arms around my waist. I joined him in the day's rest, interlocked.
