Aiden sat in his bed. It was late and night and the cold winds could be heard from outside the window. Every noise woke him up in the night, which was why he never slept for very long. Aiden got dressed into his usual band t-shirt with a black and white striped hoodie and jeans. He quietly walked down into the empty common room and sat down on the couch. He sat there and stared into the fire while everyone slept, or so he thought.
Stacey was standing in the shadows. She watched silently as Aiden sat down.
Aiden blinked and decided he would at least try to get a little sleep at least. He stretched and lied down on the couch. He closed his eyes but was unable to fall asleep. Aiden continued to lie there with his eyes closed. He thought to himself.
Stacey watched, her eyes a primary blue. She watched him, knowing he wasn`t alseep.
Aiden smiled slightly but remained quiet for a few minutes longer. "I know someones there" he called out, without moving an inch.
Stacey smiled but didn`t reveal herself. She forced the window open with her powers. The open window let in a cool breeze.
Aiden leaned up on the couch and looked at the window. He chuckled and glanced around the room as the wind blew everywhere. It blew out the fire, making the room dark.
Stacey smiled, the room was dark, but the window let in moonlight. She inched closer to the corner she was in.
Aiden snapped his fingers and a small flame appeared over his hand. He looked around the room and saw two feet in a corner. He smiled and slowly walked up to them and kneeled down in front of Stacey. "I found you" Aiden said, not knowing who was there because it was dark.
Stacey had to stifle a giggle. She made herself invisable and inched past him, into another corner. She blew a fire butterfly into the room.
Aiden smiled as he recognized the voice of who giggled. He opened his fist and pointed to the fireplace, making it light up again. "Ah so your hiding I see" he called out.
Stacey made herself visable. "Duh, if I was someone that wanted to kill you I would have." She said as she sank into the couch.
Aiden looked at the now visible Stacey. "Well remind me to be more careful." He leaned over the other end of the couch. "What are you doing up so late?" He mused.
Stacey looked at Aiden with a sideways glance. "Why do you think?"
"Probably waiting to scare random people...or just looking for me" Aiden joked as he smiled.
Stacey smiled and hugged her legs. "I think the second guess is closer." She said.
"Good, thats what I hoped you'd say" Aiden replied with a grin. He jumped over the edge of the couch and landed cleanly on it, sitting beside her.
Stacey leaned against the arm of the chair, and grinned. "Yea, whatever." She said sarcastically.
"Well at least you didn't deny it" Aiden said winking. He glanced down at the fire. "Are you not tired?"
Stacey`s face fell into a yawn. "Nope."
"I can tell" Aiden said with playful edge of sarcasm in his tone. He paused and shifted his shoulders toward her. "Want me to let you go to sleep?"
"What do you mean 'Let me go to sleep?'" Stacey asked.
"Incase your tired" Aiden told her.
"I`m not tired." She lied.
Aiden looked at her and tilted his head. "Are you sure? I would feel bad keeping you awake if your really tired"
Stacey nodded. "I`m sure. I`d rather stay up with you anyway." She said, this time, she told the truth.
Aiden smiled "Okay. I was hoping you'd say that" he said. He took one arm and wrapped it around her shoulder and held her close to him.
Stacey leaned into him and stared at the fire.
Aiden held Stacey next to him. His breathing gradually slowed as he stared into the fire as well. He flicked his wrist and made the fire slightly brighter, eluminating the room more.
Stacey smiled and leaned her head against his shoulder. "You know, a few years ago, I would sit here with Niles, and stare at the fire. I couldn`t control fire then. I didn`t even know I could."
Aiden glanced down at her out of the corner of his eye. "Whatever happened to Niles?" He asked, curiously. He ran one hand through Stacey's light brown hair.
Stacey`s smile faltered. "He moved to Romania." She said coldly and quietly. She glared at the ring on her right hand, the one very similar to the one Niles gave her.
Aiden followed her gaze to the ring. "Are you alright?" he asked.
"I`m fine." She said, twisting the ring around her finger. This one was plain, it wasn`t engraved like the one Niles gave her. "Just some bad memories."
Aiden caught her hand. He ran his fingers over the ring she twisted in her hand. "Sorry" he said after a moment, it was all he could think of to say.
"It`s okay." She said quietly. then she looked at him. "Where`s your ring?"
Aiden held up his other hand and showed it to her. "Right here" He pointed out.
Stacey smiled and took that hand. Their rings touched, both warm from their own body heat. "Good." She said.
He looked down at their rings. "I don't think I've taken it off yet" Aiden pointed out.
"I haven`t either." Stacey replied, liking the fact that he hadn`t taken it off.
"Good. I would've felt weird being the only one" Aiden said, smiling.
Stacey smiled and squeezed his hand for a moment. "I apreciate that you wear it." She said, resting her head on his shoulder. "Most guys wouldn`t have."
"I don't mind one bit" Aiden said, turning it around the finger he wore it on. He looked into the fire.
Stacey tangled her fingers in his. "Tell me about your romantic past." She said, not trying to bring back bad memories or anything.
Aiden thought back at home. He sighed "I've had a few real serious girlfriends. Most of the time they all ended very badly though. But since I'm still new here, I haven't dated anyone at Hogwarts yet."
Stacey smiled slightly. "'Cept me!"
Aiden laughed. "Exactly. Besides you." He looked at Stacey and smiled. "How about you?" he asked.
Stacey sighed; her dating history was a little longer than his. "When I went to a Muggle school, I had a boyfriend, Bobby was his name. We broke up when I left to come here. Then I came here and met Niles. He graduated and moved to Romania. The I met you." She took a deep breath after talking fast.
Aiden listened to her quietly. "So how long did you and Niles date?" He asked casually.
Stacey pursed her lips together for a while. "Over two years." She said quietly.
Aiden nodded. "I had some for around that long when I lived in my muggle town. But like I said, they all ended up badly" He paused "I'm hoping to start out new here"
Stacey blinked a few times. "I hope you have."
"Of course. Home wasn't too good so I want to leave that all behind me" He said.
Stacey reatched across the table and took his hand. "You have more power than you think."
Aiden took her hand and held it on both of his. He looked at Stacey "Not without you" he whispered.
Stacey shook her head. "No. You have power in you, you just hold it in."
He tilted his head. "What makes you think that?" Aiden asked, wondering if he actually does.
Stacey shrugged. "You`ve held things in over a long period of time, you just underestimate yorself, so you don`t actually improve much."
Aiden looked at her for a long moment, thinking. "I never noticed I did that" he mumbed finally. He looked at the ground.
Stacey took his hand and rubbed it softly. "It`s okay." She said softly. "Everyone holds some things in."
Aiden looked at Stacey and shrugged. "I guess your right." He glanced around him. "So what do you wanna do?" Aiden asked, suddenly feeling hyper.
Stacey grinned mischeviously. "I dunno." She said.
Aiden grinned. "Lets go walk around, I doubt anyone else is awake" he said. He suddenly stood up and picked Stacey up over his shoulders. "Ready?" Aiden laughed.
?
Stacey laughed along with Aiden. "I`m ready."
Aiden looked at her as he held Stacey in his arms. "Tell me if this bothers you" he said, still laughing. He began to walk outside.
((Uh, I`m confuzzed. How is he carrying her?))
(Hes holding her in his arms lol I cant really explain how)
Stacey wrapped her arms around Aiden`s neck. "Nope. Not at all." She replied.
Aiden smiled once more and held her tighter. "Good." He carried Stcaey outside and walked around. They eventually came to a large rock and he sat down, still holding her. "Your actually quite light." Aiden noted aloud.
Stacey grinned. "Like I would know that."
Aiden laughed. "Good. But just incase..." He stood back up and spun her around. Aiden then stopped suddenly and smiled. "Light as a feather" he murmered.
Stacey wrapped her arms around Aiden`s shoulders. "That, or you`re just strong."
Aiden smiled. "Well, that too..." He agreed. He squeezed her tightly in his arms.
Stacey kept her smile and rested her head on his shoulder. "See, I`m right."
Aiden smiled and sat down against the rock. He looked down at her and put his hand under Stacey's chin and lifted her head. He kissed her softly. "Of course. But there is an exception, I tried to be stronger when I'm with you, so I can protect you." Aiden whispered after a moment.
Stacey gently kissed him when he said that. "And you did a very good job of that." She said quietly.
Aiden flashed a smile. "Its a full time job. But I just want you to know that I will never, ever let anything happen to you." He stared deep into her eyes.
Stacey gently touched his cheek and kissed him. "I know." She said quietly. Her eyes turned a brilliant gold.
((Have you read Twilight?))
Aiden's breathing slowed and his eyes turned a gold color, almost mimicking hers. He kissed her back slowly. "I'm glad you understand."
Stacey smiled and kissed him again. "Perfectly."
Aiden ran one hand threw her hair, still holding her gacefully. "I love you" he whispered.
(Oh yeah I have by the way)
((lol))
"I love you more than life itself." She said.
Aiden smiled and kissed her. "Same for me" he said.
Stacey smiled and her eyes turned a dusty shade. She looked down at her hands. She didn`t really know what to say, she just wanted to feel him being close to her for a while.
Aiden continued to hold Stacey. He adjusted his arms so he was holding her closer to him. He leaned back against the rock. Aiden flipped his dark black hair out of his eyes and looked down at Stacey, smiling.
Stacey looked up into Aiden`s eyes and smiled as she leaned into his shoulder. She rested her right hand on his knee, her silver ring glowing in the moonlight.
Aiden looked down at the hand Stacey had on his knee. He used one of his hands and gently intertwined it with hers, still resting it on his knee. Their rings touched one another.
Stacey smiled and gently squeezed his hand. She closer her now brilliant blue eyes and breathed deeply.
Aiden smiled and gently rubbed the back of her palm with his thumb. His pale fingers still intertwined with hers. He stood very still as his breathing slowed down. Aiden slowly leaned in and kissed Stacey's forehead lightly before leaning back with a larger smile.
Stacey looked up at him and smiled. She stretched and kissed his cheek just at the corner of his lips.
Aiden looked at her and frowned. "Thats it?" He asked, dissapointment edging his tone.
Stacey giggled slightly and pressed her lips fully against his.
Aiden pressed his lips against hers. He pulled back some and laughed. "Thats better" he said playfully.
Stacey layed her head on his shoulder and sighed. "You are so..." She paused, not able to find the right word.
Aiden glanced down at her from the corner of his eyes. He wrapped his arm around her shoulder. "So what?" He asked, obviously curious.
tacey sighed again in defeat. "I don`t know. So unpredictable." She decided.
Aiden frowned a little. "Is that bad?" He asked.
Stacey smiled. "No, it`s good." She said happily.
His frown faded a little. "Well thats good" He agreed after a moment.
Stacey kept silent for a few minutes. "You are worth more to me than you think." She said quietly.
Aiden looked down at her. "You are worth everything to me" He told her sincerely.
Stacey considered what he said. "True, but I still love you more than you think I do."
Aiden blinked. "Well that must be alot then" He said, smiling.
Stacey smiled. "A lot a lot." She said. She squeezed Aiden`s hand, their rings touching.
Aiden looked down at their hands and playfully tapped his hand against hers. Which made their rings click. He chuckled and smiled cheerfully for no reason.
Stacey laughed. "You`re such a dork." She giggled.
Aiden laughed. "Its fun" He said, tapping them quicker.
Stacey grabbed his hand tightly so he couldn`t tap the rings together anymore. "A major dork."
Aiden put a fake frown on his face. "Awww" He pouted.
Stacey smiled and loosened her grip on his hand. She tangled her fingers with his. Her skin looked pale in the moonlight.
Aiden rubbed the back of her hand with his thumb. He sat her down beside him, like she was almost sitting in his laps. Aiden put one arm around Stacey's shoulder.
((That`s already how they were sitting.))
Stacey watched as Aiden drew his thumb across her hand. His thumb left a cool feeling wherever it touched.
(oh)
Aiden continued to rub her hand and leaned back slightly so he was against the rock. He took in a deep breath.
Stacey leaned into his shoulder and ran her other hand through his hair absentmindedly. She looked out into the cool night without really seeing anything.
Aiden looked above into the night sky and gazed at the stars. He began thinking to himself.
"Aiden?" Stacey asked quietly.
"Hmmm?" He mumbled, slowly turning his attention back to Stacey.
She hesitated before she spoke again. "Hypothetically, what would I have to do to make you be angry enough at me to not love me? Hypotetically."
Aiden thought for a moment. "Not quite sure...why do you ask?"
Stacey hesitated again. "Just a hypotetical question."
He thought once more. "I honestly don't know" Aiden mumbled, confused at what brought on her question.
Stacey became silent, lost in thought. She took his hand and ran her first finger over the back of his hand.
Aiden looked at Stacey again. "Are you saying theres something you need to tell me?" He asked, getting more serious. He turned toward her.
Stacey sat up and looked into Aiden`s eyes. Her own eyes changed to brown and were full of concern. "No. No, it`s nothing like that. I just wanted to know how much you could put up with me." She said, realizing how stupid her past few sentences sounded.
Aiden sighed in relief. "Ah. Well, like I said...I'm sure but it depends. But you'd be suprised how much I can put up with you" he said. Aiden winked at her.
Stacey smiled, glad he understood. "Whatever. You have to get tired of me eventually."
"I doubt it. You'll get tired of me long before I get tired of you." Aiden said to her.
"I really don`t think that will happen any time soon." She said, looking into his eyes.
Aiden looked into Stacey's eyes as she looked into his eyes. "Good, because I don't want to lose you that quickly." He whispered sincerely.
Stacey smiled. "Don`t worry, you won`t."
Aiden nodded. He suddenly embraced her in a short hug. "Well, no matter what you do...I just want you to be happy." Aiden said. He looked back into the sky.
Stacey didn`t really understand, but she replied anyway. "If I`m with you than I`ll always be happy." She whispered.
Aiden looked back at Stacey and smiled, but it didn't fully reach his eyes. "Me too" He whispered back.
Stacey saw how Aiden didn`t seem that happy. "Is anything wrong?" She asked.
Aiden looked at her. "No, I'm fine" He said, meaning it.
"Are you sure?" She buzzed, wanting to make sure he was truely okay.
"Yes, I'm fine. Only thinking." Aiden assured her. He looked back at the sky. A cold breeze swept across the horizon, making his hair fall into his face. Aiden flipped it out of his eyes. "Are you cold?" He asked Stacey.
Stacey looked into the sky, too. ((Is it night or day?)) "No, I`m fine. You?" She asked.
(Its around dusk)
"I'm great. I have a jacket here if you need one" Aiden answered. He held up a black and white striped hooded jacket.
((Awww, it`s twilight! How ironic.))
Stacey shook her head. "I`m fine, really." She insisted. She leaned into his shoulder and looked out into the sunset. The sky was a mix of orange, pink, and deep purple.
(lol)
Aiden leaned over some so she would be more comfortable. He layed the jacket back down beside him. He too stared into the setting sun.
"How soon is your birthday?" Stacey asked suddenly.
"In about a month" Aiden answered. He turned to Stacey. "Why?"
Stacey smiled mischeviously. "No reason." She said, obviously lying, but also indicating that she wasn`t going to say more.
Aiden chuckled. "Ahh...what are you getting at?" he asked.
"No." She lied. "Unless you let me give you an eary birthday present."
Aiden shrugged and then smiled. "Well...it depends on what it is..." he said.
Stacey smiled sideways. "I think you`ll like what it is."
Aiden looked at her. "What is it?" He asked Stacey, obvious curiousity tones his voice.
A mischevious gleam made it`s way to Stacey`s eyes. "I can`t tell."
He pulled her closer. "Aww...c'mon. Tell me" Aiden whispered.
"Nope." Stacey teased, turning her head away from him. "Not telling."
Aiden took this opportunity and leaned forward, kissing her neck. He kept his face where it was. "Please..." Aiden whispered, pleading with a smile in his voice. His cool breath was on her neck.
Stacey smiled, but she wouldn`t let in that easily. "No."
"Aww...well thats dissapointing" Aiden whispered, trying to persuade her. He kept his face still.
Stacey pursed her lips together. "Sorry to disappoint you." She whispered.
Aiden frowned and lifted his head up. "Not even a hint?" He asked.
Stacey ran her hand along his jaw. "Not even a hint."
Aiden sighed. "Aww I'm sad" He pouted. He put on a larger frown.
Stacey smiled and put her hand on the back on his neck. "I thought you couldn`t be sad when I`m around?" She taunted.
Aiden looked at her. "Doesn't mean I can't fake to be sad" He pointed out, smiling at Stacey.
Stacey smiled and pressed her cool lips against his.
Aiden kissed her back softly. He wrapped an arm around her. He then pulled back suddenly. "Its hard to even fake being sad around you" Aiden said with a smile.
Stacey`s eyes brightened more. "I know."
Aiden smiled. "Good" he said. He held her closer to him and leaned back so he would be more comfortable.
Stacey leaned into his shoulder more and ran the back of her hand from Aiden`s jaw to his temple. Her hands here cool from beigh outside and the metal of her ring was even colder.
Aiden felt her cold hands run along his face. "Your hand's are cold" He noted aloud.
Stacey magically warmed her hands and continued to stroke his face. "Better?"
Aiden smiled as he felt Stacey's hands suddenly get warmer. "Yeah, much better." He said with a laugh.
Stacey leaned closer to him, pressing her cheek to his.
Aiden stood completely still. He liked the feeling of her cold skin against his. He took in a deep breath.
Staey smiled and wrapped her arm around his shoulder. She gently squeezed his shoulder.
Aiden held her close then suddenly leaned back to kiss her gently on the cheek. He smiled and chuckled quietly.
Stacey laughed with him and her eyes became a brilliant blue. "I love you so much, I hope you know that." She whispered as she looked into his eyes.
Aiden looked back into her eyes, sincerely. "Yes I do. And I feel the same way about you, you know?" He told her quietly with a large smile on his face.
"I know." She whispered back.
Aiden smiled and held her closer, hugging her. He couldn't think of anything meaningful to say at the moment.
Stacey hugged him back, wrapping her other arm around him as well. She rested her head on his shoulder so her breath grazed his collarbone.
Aiden smiled and stood still, trying not to show that it tickled him. He leaned back slightly.
Stacey tilted her head so her breath wouldn`t tickle Aiden and blew a long stream of air. It was vicable in the dark sky and coiled around them like a snake.
Aiden watched the stream of air as it curled around them like a snake. He titled his head to the side.
Stacey smiled and rested her haed on his chest again. She smoke-like stream of air continued to coil.
Aiden glanced down at her as she rested her head on his chest. He wondered if she could hear his fast heartbeat. Aiden then looked up at the smoke and smiled shortly.
Stacey`s eyes lightened as she heard Aiden`s heart. She put one hand on his shoulder.
Aiden looked down at Stacey as she put her hand on his shoulder. He absentmindedly ran his fingers through her hair.
Stacey smiled as Aiden messed with her hair. She gently squeezed his shoulder.
Aiden smiled a little. He looked down at her again. "Your awfully quiet" He noted.
Stacey closed her eyes. "I`m enjoying the moment."
"Ahh. Good me too" Aiden said. He noticed that she closer her eyes. He sat there quietly.
Stacey smiled and took a deep breath; she breathed in his smell.
Aiden began to absentmidedly run his fingers through her hair again. His breathing slowed as he looked around the room.
Stacey tilted her head up so she could look Aiden in the eye. "What do you want to do?"
Aiden looked down at Stacey as she spoke. "I don't know, any suggestions?" He asked with a playful smile. He suddenly became hyper.
Stacey shrugged. "Wanna play ping pong?" She asked, picking up Aiden`s energy.
Aiden couldn't help but laugh at that. "Ping pong?" He question. He shrugged his shoulders. "What the h*ll. Why not?" He stood up.
Stacey laughed. She stood and took his hand. She transported him to a room in the attic where a ping pong table was.
Aiden chuckled. "Nice. You know where everything is don't you?"
Stacey nodded. She pulled a dusty sheet off of the table and tossed a paddle to Aiden.
Aiden caught the paddle with ease. He looked at the paddle then looked at Stacey.
Stacey took her spot at one end of the table. "Don`t tell me you don`t know how to play ping pong."
Aiden smiled mischeviously. "Of course I do. You hit it back and forth right?" He chuckled.
Stacey rolled her eyes and hit the ball so it went soaring towards his head.
Aiden quickly held the paddle up and hit it back cleanly. He smiled.
Stacey smiled and her eyes changed bright green as she hit the ball back.
Aiden was almost distracted by her eyes changing colors. However, he hit the ball back, harder than before.
Stacey just barely hit the ball, not hitting it hard enough.
The ball hit the net on her side. Aiden smiled triumphantly. "Is that 1 to 0?"
"Shut up." Stacey said playfully as the ball flew back to her. She hit it hard this time, sending it over Aiden`s shoulder.
Aiden missed it as it flew over his shoulder. "Wow. Nice" He admitted. He looked behind him. "Don't worry, I'll get it." Aiden walked back and looked for the ball.
Stacey laughed and snapped her fingers. The ball rolled into the open.
Aiden picked it up and shook his head. He walked back to the table. "Ready?" He held up the ball.
Stacey nodded, waiting for him to restart the game.
Aiden lifted his paddle and hit it back towards her.
Stacey smiled and hit it back towards him with force.
Aiden lifted his paddle again and barely hit it.
The ball hit his side of the net. "Two to One." She smiled.
Aiden smiled. "Want me to take it easy on you?" He asked, his smile turning into a mischevious one.
"What?" Stacey laughed. "You aren`t going easy on me already?" She asked, tilting her head to the side.
Aiden chuckled. "Well, I am. But I don't want to make it too obvious."
"Hit me." She said as the ball flew towards him.
Aiden shrugged his shoulders. "If you say so..." He threw the ball in the air and hit it has hard as he could.
Stacey smiled and hit the ball back with force.
Aiden held his arm out but missed the ball. It flew behind him. He sighed. "Two to one?"
"Three to one." Stacey smiled. "Come on, please tell me this is the best you can do."
Aiden smiled. "Its not" He said, picking up the ball.
Stacey raised an eyebrow. "Come on then." She insisted.
Aiden smiled mischeviously. He put the ball in the air and shot it towards Stacey.
Stacey hit the ball back with force.
Aiden quickly hit it back. However, when he hit the ball it hit the bottom of the ball so it hit the net. He mumbled something to himself as he frowned.
Stacey gave Aiden a sympathetic smile. "Do you want to try something else?"
Aiden looked up at Stacey. "It's up to you. I'm a sore loser"
Stacey walked around the table towards him and jumped up onto the table to sit. "Well, what do you want to do?"
Aiden leaned against the table beside where she sat. "I dunno. What do you want to do?" He asked, eyeing Stacey.
Stacey tilted her head. "Whatever you want to do." She insisted, refusing to break first.
Aiden shook his head stubbornly. "Nope. You pick. I hate deciding what to do."
Stacey crossed her arms. "Too bad."
Aiden sighed. "Well, what is there to do late at night. Something that doesn't invovled getting caught by the teachers?"
Stacey laughed and uncrossed her arms. "Nothing. Curfew was a while ago."
The edges of Aiden's lips curved down slightly. "Aww...thats too bad. Want to go outside?"
Stacey nodded. "Sure." She agreed.
Aiden leaned up and grabbed Stacey's hand. He helped her down from the table and lead her outside.
Stacey gently swung her arm back and forth as they came into the cool night air. "So, whats we gonna do?" She asked with and odd accent.
Aiden smiled at her accent. "I don't know Mi'lady. What would you like to do on this fine night?" He asked, adding an accent as well.
Stacey rolled her eyes at Aiden`s annoying accent. She shrugged. "I have no idea, that`s why I asked you!" She exclamied.
Aiden smiled at her annoyance. He chuckled. "True...true" He said, straightening his voice to normal.
Stacey smiled. "You can`t make this easy can you?" She said as she crossed her arms.
Aiden smiled and shook his head. "Nope." He said stubbornly.
Stacey rolled her eyes. "Well, I`m not breaking first."
He folded his arms across his chest. "Neither am I." Aiden said. He flashed a smile.
Stacey raised an eyebrow. She became completely still, the only movement was her breathing and blinking.
Aiden watched her as she became completely still. He kept his arms close to himself and he stood there quietly.
Stacey stood there, frozen. For what seemed like an hour, she didn`t move except to breathe and blink. After they were well into an hour, stacey sighed. she uncrossed her arms and stuck out her tounge.
Aiden watched Stacey for a long eerie silence. Until finally her last action sent a him into a burst of laughter. "Alright. You win." He said, finally giving in.
Stacey stepped closer to Aiden until she was less than a foot away from him. "What`s so funny?" She asked in a deadly tone, forcing herself to sound that way to mask her laughter.
Aiden kept a smile on his face. He hadn't fully recognized her deadly tone. He shook his head slowly and lifted his shoulders. "Nothing, only you." Aiden said, continuing to smile as he looked down at Stacey.
Stacey inched closer to Aiden and tilted her head slightly up to look into his eyes. "Well ya know, you look rather funny to." She said in a serious tone, not a hint of laughter in her voice or expression, even thought she was laughing inside.
Aiden raised his eyebrow and leaned down so he was closer to Stacey. His face was inches from hers. "Is that a bad thing?" He whispered with a smile in his voice.
Stacey leaned just a tiny bit closer to Aiden. "No," She breathed. Her eyes lightened to a brilliant blue.
Aiden's smile got wider. He inched closer so their faces were almost touching. "I hope not" He breathed quietly. He noticed her eyes change colors.
Stacey smiled and gently pressed her lips against Aiden`s. She closed her eyes, but not before they spirraled into a cross of diamonds and saphires.
Aiden put his arm around her neck, making the kiss last longer. He took in a deep breath, taking in her scent and the ones around them. He closed his eyes slowly. His lips slowly turned into a smile.
Stacey raised her amrs and wrapped them around Aiden`s shoulders. She kissed him again, smiling still, her eyes still brilliant behind her eyelids.
Aiden ran his finger threw the ends of her hair. He leaned forward so he was closer to Stacey as he kissed her back.
Stacey smiled as she felt Aiden run his hand through her hair. She gently brushed his jaw.
Aiden smiled as she brushed his jaw. His breathing unvoluntarily quickened. Aiden leaned back slightly and opened his eyes, showing how they turned to their bright golden color.
Stacey`s smile got bigger when she saw Aiden`s eyes. Her eyes would have become that brillinat color if they weren`t already. She noticed how his breathing quickened, but she didn`t show it; she was sure her own heart was beating just as fast.
Aiden noticed her eyes were the same color as his. He slowly put his hand on her face, rubbing his thumb against her cheek. He slowly leaned in and kissed her cheek softly. Aiden leaned back and smiled.
Stacey slightly tilted her head to one side. "I love you." She whispered.
Aiden smiled at her. "I love you.." He whispered back sincerely.
Stacey rested her head on Aiden`s shoulder, her breath slowly running across his neck.
Aiden smiled as he felt her breathing on his neck. He leaned back a little as she rested her head on his shoulder.
Stacey, too, smiled. Her breathing slowed as she spoke. "Think of the happiest thing yu can." She whispered.
Aiden glanced down at her out of the corner of his eye. "Well, right now I'm pretty happy" He answered.
Stacey smiled. "You know, one of theses days, you`re ust gonna make me cry." She whispered. She tilted her head so her lips pressed against his collarbone.
Aiden looked down at her. "Why is that?" He asked, suprised.
Stacey tilted her her head up to look into his eyes. "Beacause every time I ask you something like 'What`s you favorate memory' you say when we met, or something like that."
Aiden smiled sheepishly. "Well, I don't want to lie..." He pointed out. He looked back in her eyes.
Stacey rolled her eyes and laid her head back on Aiden`s shoulder. "You can be so romantic sometimes."
Aiden flashed her a normal smile. "I don't even try." He said as he ran his hand through her hair.
Stacey let out a short laugh then she closed her eyes as he ran his hand through her hair. She tilted her head so her lips were millimeters from his neck.
Aiden continued to smile. He glanced down at her, wondering what she was going.
Stacey sensed Aiden`s questioning and she breathed in beeply, bringing in his scent. She sighed softly and her eyed turned purple.
Aiden looked down at Stacey as her eyes changed colors. "You know, thats you're pretty cute when you do that." He said randomly.
Stacey smiled. "You know, you think my eyes are too perfect." She teased. Her eyes sparkled emerald green.
Aiden tilted his head to the side, still watching her eyes. "I think they are. I can't get used to them because once they turn a certain color, they change again. It's rather fascinating to watch." He explained.
Stacey`s smile got bigger and she started to blush, her eyes turning pink. "It doesn`t help that you make them change color." She scolded.
Aiden laughed quietly. He ran his hand through her hair again. "Well, I can't help myself. Like I said, it's fascinating." He said.
Stacey just ignored his last comment. Her pink eyes became gold-flecked. "Like I said, you don`t help them." She complained again.
"Does that bother you?" Aiden asked, curiously. He watched her eyes.
Stacey`s smile became bigger. "No, I like the fact that you can make me feel happy." She whispered against his shoulder.
Aiden rested his hand on hers. "Well, in that case I like making you happy." He whispered back.
Stacey`s smile widened still and she lifted her head slightly and kissed Aiden`s neck, just below the corner of his jaw. Her eyes became the brilliant blue Aiden had commented before.
Aiden flashed her a brilliant smile and kissed her forehead. His smile widended as he noticed Stacey's eye color.
Stacey stood up straight. She took his hand and pulled him towards the couch; they had been stading like that for quite a while. She sat down with her legs folded beneath her.
Aiden sat on the couch beside her. He wrapped his arm around Stacey's shoulder. "Well, this is more comfortable." He noted.
Stacey smiled and leaned into Aiden. She eyes shifted into a bright orange color that reflected the fire, wjich was starting to die down.
Aiden smiled back at Stacey. He flicked his wrist and directed toward the fire, making it bigger. The room was now illuminated more.
Stacey looked at Aiden, and saw the dark window behind him. "Wow, it`s late." She said quietly.
Aiden followed her gaze to the dark window. "You're right. I hadn't realized the time." He said, looking back at Stacey "Are you tired?"
Stacey nodded, knowing it wouldn`t do any good to lie to him, he would just find out anyway. "Yea, a little." She admitted.
Aiden nodded back. "Want me to let you go to sleep?"
Stacey shook her head slowly. "Nah. If someone comes down here and sees us, we`ll get in trouble." She said as she looked around the dark common room. "I guess I should go upstairs." she added, but made no motion to move.
Aiden nodded once more. "Alright. I'll help you with that..." He said. Aiden quickly swooped Stacey in his arms with no sence of struggle. He grinned at her, widely. "To your room?"
Stacey wrapped her arms around Aiden`s neck. "Well, uh, it is a girls` dormitory. You aren`t exactly allowed in." She said with a sly smile. Her eyes sparkled mischeviously.
Aiden laughed, but was careful not to be too loud. "And you think that's going to stop me from carrying you up there?" I'll be quiet, don't worry." He said, still smiling.
Stacey laughed quietly. "Okay, whatever." She agreed. "Take me away!" She said as she leaned against him more.
Aiden smiled. "Yes ma'am." He said formally. He swiftly but quietly took her up the stairs. "This doesn't bother you does it?"
Stacey raised an eyebrow. "Why would it bother me, you`ve carried me before, and it`s not like no one knows about us."
Aiden looked at Stacey. "I know. But, I didn't want you to feel uncomfortable." He said quietly. He carried her up the stairs and into the girl's dorm. Aiden tried to be quiet as he layed Stacey on her bed.
Stacey smiled. "Thank you kind prince." She whispered in an accent. She eyes shimmered mischeviously. She leaned forward and softly pressed her lips against Aiden`s.
Aiden smiled and leaned in as well. He pressed his lips softly against hers. He then leaned back after a moment and looked at Stacey, his eyes a lighter shade than their usual dark color. "Your welcome my princess" Aiden whispered to Stacey.
Stacey leaned back against her pillow. "Sweet dreams, Your Majesty."
Aiden smiled at her. "Sweet dreams." He said, quoting her words. He leaned in and kissed Stacey's forehead softly. Aiden then stood up and slowly but quietly walked out of the room.
((You can make it morning!))
((Haha alright. Take it away!))
((YOU can make it morning.))
Aiden woke up to the dim light of the early morning. He had never slept alot, and last night wasn't much better. He yawned and stood up from his bed. Aiden got changed into a black band tee and some thrashed skinny jeans that fit him well. He drowsily walked down to the common room and sat on the couch, propping his feet up on the other end. Aiden yawned loudly and rubbed his eyes. He began thinking about last night with a grin.
Stacey silently ccame into the common room. She saw Aiden on the couch and smiled. She was wearing an emerald green tee and an old pair of jeans. She also wore her ring and Aiden`s necklace. She silently walked down the stairs and creeped behind him. She carefully put her hands over his eyes.
Aiden smiled and grabbed Stacey's hands without putting them down. "Hey." He said, guessing it was Stacey.
Stacey flipped over the couch and landed beside Aiden, her hands had been twisted from his grip. "What if that wasn`t me?" She questioned.
Aiden smiled. He loosened the grip on Stacey's hands. "Well, who do you think it wouldv'e been then?" He asked.
Stacey shrugged. "I don`t know." She replied. "Have you gone down to breakfast yet?" She asked slippeing her left hand into Aiden`s right.
Aiden squeezed her hand and shook his head quickly. "Not yet. Would you like to join me?" He asked Stacey politely.
Stacey smiled. "If you don`t mind." She accepted. Her eyes still glimmered mischeviously.
Aiden narrowed his eyes before smiling playfully. "Of course I don't mind." He pointed out. He stood up and help Stacey up as well. He began to walk out the door.
Stacey smiled as she slightly swung their entwined hands back and forth. They made their way to the Great Hall to find the Gryffindor table almost empty; most of the students had gone outside or to Hogsmead or were still asleep.
Stacey seated herself at the table and waited for Aiden to do the same, letting go of his hand so he could sit where he wanted to sit.
Aiden took a seat right beside her. He took Stacey's free hand once more and glanced around at the few students who were still eating.
Stacey`s smile grew as Aiden took her hand. A plate appeared in front of her and she started to put a few things on it. Toast, eggs, bacon. She looked sideways at Aiden. "So, have any plans for today?"
Aiden shook his head as he slowly chewed on a peice of bacon that he took. He swallowed and looked at Stacey. "Nope. I don't plan on going to class today if that's what you mean. What about you?" He asked.
Stacey let out a giggle. "Who`s going to class on Sunday?" She asked. "Those are for extra credit." She took a bite of toast.
Aiden smiled. "True. It's not like I ever go anyway." He said with a wink. He began to chew another peice of bacon. "Whats on your agenda for today?"
Stacey shrugged as she chewed. "Just hanging out I guess." She said softly. A first year girl had sat down not far from Aided and Stacey.
Aiden nodded absentmindedly, taking little notice the the first year who sat down. "Yeah, same here." He replied.
Stacey also nodded and took a large bite of bacon. She rested her hand on the table and leaned against it slightly. The young girl moved away a few feet and Stacey had to hide a smile.
Aiden followed her gaze to the young girl. He then looked back at Stacey. "What?"
Stacey leaned closer to Aiden so no one would overhear. "I looked at her and she moved away. I wonder what she heard." She whispered.
Aiden blinked, it took him a moment took comprehend what Stacey was saying. After a few seconds he smiled. "Nothing too bad I hope."
Stacey laughed. "I would think not. They know I`ll find who started the rumor if it was." She said.
Aiden smiled mischeviously. "Thats a scary thought." He said, joking.
Stacey tilted her head. "Why, have you started anything?" She teased.
Aiden looked up at Stacey. He flipped his hair out of his eyes. "I dunno...maybe." He said, teasing her back "You wouldn't hurt me if I did, would you?"
Stacey smiled. "Depends on what it is." She said, still teasing. She slipped her hand into his and squeezed it gently. She took a small bite of bacon.
"Well..." He mumbled "If it's something embarrassing about you?" Aiden took a peice of bread and took a bite. He looked at Stacey to see her reaction.
Stacey`s smile became mischevious. "You might have to die, depending on how embarrasing it is." She said softly after she swallowed.
His smile widened. "Oh, very." Aiden answered, carefully measuring her expression.
Stacey smiled and pushed Aiden gently. "Well then, you will have to die." She said, her voice full of comical tease.
Aiden pretended to back away. "Oh...I'm so scared...." He said with wide eyes.
Stacey snorted. "Yea, so scared. You should be scared of my mom, not me."
"Is your mom really scary?" Aiden asked, getting serious now.
Stacey noted that aiden was asking seriously. "Depends. She`ll probably be scary when you meet her." She said, just as serious as he was.
"Do you think she'll like me?" He asked, looking at Stacey and tilting his head a little to the side.
Stacey smiled. "Oh, she`ll love you. I inherited my love for romance from her." She said nudging him with her arm.
Aiden smiled and sighed with some relief. "Well, I'm thankful for that." He said.
Stacey laughed. "Well, you should be." She said as she giggled.
Aiden chuckled with her. "My mom loved everyone. She was really great...what I remember of her that is." He said, lowering his voice.
Stacey gently put her hand on top of Aiden`s; he had used past tense when he talked of his mom, that meant she was no loger around. "Do you know what happened to her? If you don`t mind me asking." She said quietly.
Aiden looked up at her, his lips pressed into a hard line. "Both of my parents died in a car accident when I was a kid." He answered.
Stacey gently squeezed his hand. "I`m sorry." She whispered. "I know how you feel. My dad`s side of the family was killed by Death Eaters." She added. She leaned closer, trying to comfort him.
Aiden lowered his head. "I'm sorry." He said sincerely. Aiden ran his thumb over the back of Stacey's hand.
Stacey shrugged slightly. "It`s okay." She said softly. "How`d we get on this subject? What do you want to talk about?"
Aiden shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know. Want to take a walk or something?" He said, changing the subject.
Stacey looked outside, seeing it was still light, she stood up. "Let`s go take a walk." She agreed.
Aiden nodded and grabbed her hand. He began to walk out the door.
Stacey smiled as they stepped outside. She shook her head as a cold breeze blew her hair into her face. "Where do you wan to go?" She asked thoughtfully.
Aiden flipped his hair out of his eyes. "The lake?" He asked, looking at Stacey.
"Sure," Stacey agreed quickly. "One second." She let go of Aiden`s hand and raised both of her arms in the direction of the wind. Within seconds the wind had died down considerably. "That`s better." She said happily as she took Aiden`s hand again.
Aiden smiled. "Thanks." He said, sudden happines in his voice. He held Stacey's hand tightly with a grin.
Stacey smiled back and started towards the dark water of the Lake.
Aiden walked beside Stacey slowly until they arrived at the lake. The sun was begging to set above the water, resulting in the water almost looking orange from the reflection. He smiled shortly. "Nice view." Aiden commented.
Stacey smiled and sat down in the cool sand. "Yea." She replied dreamiliy, looking out towards the spot where the sun was reflected in the water.
Aiden looked from the water, to Stacey, and back again. "Want to take a swim with me?" He asked, holding out his hand with a playful grin.
Stacey tilted her head and looked up at Aiden. "Sure." She said with a huge smile. She stood up quickly and pulled off her jacket, revealing a pink tee shirt.
Aiden quickly took off his shirt and dove into the water. After a short moment he broke to the surface and ran back to the shore. Aiden took Stacey's hand, his hair dripping wet over his eyes. "It feels warm. Want me to carry you?" He asked mischeviously, still grinning.
Stacey kicked off her shoes and jumped in after Aiden. "Can if ya want." She said, equally mischevious. She was glad he had forgotten, or just didn`t want to remember, what had happened the last time they went swimming.
Aiden smiled. He picked her up and walked deeper into the water. He made sure Stacey's head was above the water. Aiden did in fact remembered what happened last time they went swimming. However, he chose to forget it. He was sick of living in the past. Aiden looked at Stacey. "It's not too cold is it?" He asked, still grinning.
Stacey looped her arms around Aiden`s neck and smiled. "No, it`s perfect." She commented, feeling the warm water. Her eyes became primary blue as the water licked her shoulders.
Aiden locked his eyes with Stacey's. "Thats good." He commented. The water was always warm to him, his skin being naturally warm all of the time keeps him the same temperature. He continued to walk around the water, holding Stacey in his arms.
Stacey gently laid her head againnst Aiden`s bare chest and sighed softly. Under her eyeslids, her eyes changed silver.
Aiden squeezed her tightly as a slow, cold breeze came by. The current picked up, but only a little. Aiden quietly looked up at the setting sun.
Stacey smiled and raised her head slightly so her it rested on his shoulder. She gently kissed the base of his neck.
The edges of his lips curled into a smile. It tickled him a little. He still kept still.
Stacey smiled; she knew his neck was sensative, and it tickled him for her to do this, so she lowered her head back to his chest. She moved her toes a little, feeling the water.
Aiden rested one hand on Stacey's shoulder. The current picked up a little more so he stepped into a little shallower water. He flipped his wet hair out of his eyes.
Stacey felt water droplets hit her face. She let go of Aiden`s shoulder and leaned back, letting her hair trail in the water.
Aiden leaned down in the water more, so her hair would get more wet. He smiled, and used his other hand to splash Stacey playfully.
Stacey wrinkled her nose playfully and scooped up a large handful of water and flung it at Aiden. "I`m warning you," She threatened, still playful, "I`ve learned a thing or two about using water." She finished her threat, partfuly serius, but mostl playful.
Aiden smiled and adjusted himself. He looked at her. "Like what have you learned? Can you show me?" He asked. He flipped his now soaked hair out of his eyes again.
Stacey smiled and wriggled out of Aiden`s arms. She stood in the shallow water, the water not even touching her neck. She rubbed her hands together slowly and drew them apart. She turned her hands to make a round shape. She submerged her hands under water for a second and when she brought them back up she held a ball of water. She held it up for Aiden to see.
Aiden nodded and clapped quietly. However, it splashed water from his hands being wet from the water. "Nice. Where did you learn that?" Asked Aiden, looking at the ball of water.
Stacey shrugged as she crushed the ball of water, making it drip from her hand back into the lake. "I don`t know. I guess I`ve just been around someone who can conrtol water too long." Stacey had no idea how her mysterious newest power worked. She would suddenly just be able to do something new. giny or Lavy had said it was becasue she was getting stronger.
Aiden nodded. "Ah. Well, I like it. It's alot better than being able to only control one thing." He said. He put his hand in the water and flicked his wrist. The water started to bubble from the heat Aiden had put into it. He made sure the water didn't get near Stacey, hoping it wouldn't burn her. However, his body was immune to the boiling water.
Stacey smiled as she noticed his concern. "Trust me, it`s not all bubbly like it seems, If you could hear what was in my head right now...." Hr voice trailed off suggestivly.
Aiden tilted his head to the side. "What do you mean?" He asked. Aiden took his hand out of the water, but it took a moment for the water to cool down.
Stacey sighed softly and laned bac in the water. "Well, let`s just say if you weren`t prepared for it, your head would crack open, literally." She said seriously. She knew because Ginny had to help her with her block so that wouldn`t happen.
Aiden nodded, thoughtfully. "Ah. Well, I don't think you would let something like to happen. I trust you." He said.
Stacey smiled. "You`re right." She said, swimming closer to him.
Aiden smiled back. He leaned back in the water and floated on the surface. He sighed restfully.
Stacey floated around, keeping her back to the falling sun. "It`s great out here." She noted.
Aiden ran his hand through the cool water. He heated up the water he touched with his hand. "Yeah, it is." He agreed lightly.
Stacey floated into a more up-right position and put her face under the water. She swan downward and deeper, pushing past a few lone pieces of vegetation.
Aiden took a deep breath and went under the water. However, instead of going deeper he stayed by the surface. He watched to fish swim by.
Stacey turned around. She was about ten feet away from Aiden right now. She broke the surface and took a deep breath.
Aiden looked up as Stacey broke the surface. He dove down a little deeper, only to see how deep it was. Aiden then swam back up and took a breath.
Stacey tilted her head. The sky was turning darker now as the sun fell.
He looked up at the sky. "You ready to go back in?" Aiden asked.
Stacey looked back to Aiden. "If you want to." She offered. She swam closer to him as the wind picked up.
Aiden took Stacey's hand under the water. "Alright. If you don't mind then." He said. Aiden walked back up to the shallower water, where the water went to his ankles, and flipped his hair out of his eyes.
Stacey followed Aiden, clutching his hand. Her wet hair and clothes stuck to her body as they emerged from the water.
Aiden quickly shook himself off and grabbed his shirt from the shore. He put it on, even though he was still wet. "Want to go back to the school, or stay out here?" He asked.
"I don`t mind." Stacey said, putting her jacket back on. She didn`t bother putting her shoes and socks on just yet, but she picked them up.
Aiden took in a deep breath of fresh air. He quickly tried slipped on his socks and shoes.
Stacey watched Aiden. "So, do we stay out here, or go in?" She asked.
He thought for a moment. Aiden struggled to get his left shoe on. "I like the outdoors. How about you?" He said, suggesting to stay outside.
Stacey nodded. "The roof?" She suggested, turning to look to the sky. A single star had come out already.
Aiden nodded, he liked that idea. "Sure." Aiden agreed. He grabbed her hand, and walked back towards the school.
Stacey lifted her free hand up to her head, leaving it a few inches away. She firced her out of her palm to dry her hair. By the time they reached the wall, her hair was dry.
Aiden looked at Stacey. He nodded at the way she had her hair. "Very nice." He complemented.
Stacey smirked and ran her fingers through her now messy hair. She snapped her fingers and they rose into the air, flying up to the roof. Stacey landed perfectly, used to the sharp eaves.
Aiden shook his head and smiled. He watched her fly up to the roof. He then copied Stacey and snapped his fingers. Aiden murmered a spell and he was able to fly up to the roof. He walked a few feet and sat by Stacey.
"Hello." Stacey said as Aiden sat beside her. She looked out into the horizon, more stars visable and dark falling fast.
"Hey" Aiden said with a smile. "Great view up here." He said. He was gazing at the peaceful stars. It all seemed so real.
Stacey pushed Aiden playfully. "Yea, but we already knew that." She mused.
Aiden nodded and put his hand down to catch himself. He chuckled. "Yeah, but I suppose it's something you can't get used to."
Stacey nodded. "I know what you mean. The stars always take my breath away." She turned to face Aiden.
"Yeah, they're great. I'm not sure what about them, but I feel drawn to them." Aiden said in agreement. He smiled at Stacey.
Stacey smiled. "and they don`t even have gravity force." She whispered.
Aiden nodded. "Yup." He said. He pretended like he was going to lean back, but instead pushed Stacey playfully, revenge for earlier.
Stacey gasped childishly and caught herself, not worried in the slightest about falling. She sat up staright again.
Aiden paused but then smiled playfully. He thought she was going to fall at first. "Not scared are you?" Aiden asked with a normal smile now.
"Of course not," Stacey said in a high voice. "I`m a ballerina, ballerinas aren`t scared of anything." Her voice was full of mock-stubborness.
Aiden nodded thoughtfully. "So what does that make me?" He asked, teasing her lightly.
Stacey thought for a moment. "You can be a tree." she teased, pushing his shoulder gently.
Aiden smiled. "Oh, well a tree!" He said, pretending to be excited.
Stacey laughed. "I didn`t know you`d be so excited." She said sarcastically.
Aiden laughed as well. "Oh yeah, I', definatly excited." He said, full sarcasm in his tone.
Stacey continued to laugh merrily. "Well, you should be. A tree is a very important part. I mean, you stand there." She teased.
Aiden nodded, and chuckled. "True, true. And we do give people oxygen."
Stacey finally stopped laughing, but kept a big smile. She got sidetracked as she caught sight of the stars again.
Aiden smiled at Stacey's short attention span. (=p) He slowly leaned to the back again and folded his arms behind his head.
(( =o =P ))
Stacey smiled at the dark sky. The stars were really clear out here; there was no lights to block them out.
(lol)
Aiden looked up at the sky then Stacey. "Are you cold?" He asked, reaching for the jacket he brought with him.
Stacey dreamily smiled at Aiden. "I`m perfestly fine." She said softly.
Aiden nodded. He put his hand back down and grabbed hers. He took in a deep breath of the night air.
Stacey gently squeezed Aiden`s hand and exhaled deeply. She closed her eyes and leaned back.
Aiden watched Stacey as she layed down. He wondered if she was tired. He then looked up at the glowing stars.
Stacey quickly identified a few constelations. She squeezed Aiden`s hand again, breathing in the fresh air.
Aiden looked back at Stacey, and sqeezed her hand after she had. "It's very peaceful out here." He noticed quietly.
Stacey smiled and nodded. "Yes, it is." She hoped Aiden didn`t think anything of her lack of sylables.
Aiden leaned toward Stacey more. He looked back up at the stars.
Stacey turned her head toward Aiden, still smiling. "What`s you favorite part of all this?" She motioned to the big sky.
Aiden looked at the sky, and began thinking for an answer. "Well, I guess the fact that it never changes. But then again, no matter how many times you look at it, you can never get used to it." He answered. He wondered if it was a stupid answer.
Stacey`s eyes lightened. "That`s a sweet answer." She said softly. She gently squeezed his hand.
Aiden smiled at Stacey. "So, whats your favorite thing about it all?"
Stacey looked at the sky. The stars sparkled invitingly. "I guess... I like it because they`re always there. They don`t ever leave you or get mad at you. They`re there, every night when you go out to look at them."
Aiden nodded, a smile still on his face. "Thats a good answer too." He said.
Stacey smiled. Her eyes got distant as she stared at the sky.
Aiden watched her for a moment. "Are you alright?" He asked.
Stacey turned her head back to Aiden. "I`m perfect." She whispered. She leaned closer to him and rested her head on his shoulder.
Aiden gently kissed the top of Stacey's head. He took a breath, and stared at the sky.
After a few long minutes, Stacey spoke again. "Do you ever think that... things could change?" She asked.
Aiden glanced down at her again. "Change? How?" He asked, trying to understand at what she was getting at.
Stacey shrugged. "I dunno. Like... something really big happened and this was all gone." She indicated to the sky.
Aiden began to think. "Yeah, well I suppose I've thought about it. Why do you ask?"
Stacey shrugged again. "I don`t know." She said, wonder in her voice.
Aiden looked up at the sky again. He wondered what Stacey had on her mind to ask that.
Stacey gently squeezed Aiden`s fingers and closed her eyes. She suddenly felt a little tired.
Aiden turned himself over so he could face Stacey. He now layed on his side. He kept quiet, wondering if she was going to sleep.
Stacey squeezed his fingers again when she felt Aiden move. She, too, layed on her side.
Aiden gently rubbed his thumb over the back of her hand. He smiled at Stacey.
Stacey smiled and leaned closer to him. Under her closed eyelids, her eyes brightened.
Aiden leaned his head closer to Stacey so he could kiss her on the cheek. He smiled again.
Stacey`s smile got bigger and her eyes lightened further. She leaned into his shoulder, her face inches from his.
Aiden watched her as she leaned in closer. He put his hand on her shoulder, and lightly ran his fingers through the end of hair.
Stacey shook with a silent laugh. She opened her eyes and they glimmered.
Aiden smiled as he looked at Stacey's eyes. "Are you tired?" He whispered.
"Nope." Stacey answered. Truthfully, she was a little tired, but she didn`t care about that right now.
Aiden looked at Stacey. "Good. Me either." He said. He wanted to spend time with her, not wasting time going to sleep. Aiden glanced up at the stars again.
Stacey smiled and closed her eyes again. She inched closer to him, so her face was only an inch or two from his.
Aiden looked back at Stacey as she inched closer to him. He smiled a little, and he closed his eyes as well. He took in another deep breath.
Stacey slowly opened her eyes and looked at the dark sky. She stars twinkled and the constelations were clear.
Aiden kept his eyes closed. His breathing deepend as he started to accidently fall asleep.
Drowsiness toook over and Stacey`s eyes fell closed. Her breathing regulated and got deeper as she sank into unconsiousness.
(lol Morning?)
((Sure.))
Stacey slowly woke up. First she felt the cool morning air on her cheek and bare arms. Then she could smell the brisk morning air. She opened her eyes and saw Aiden; she smiled.
Aiden layed there, still asleep. He had moved on his back during the night, and his eyes were still closed. His breathing was long, and deep indicating he was still asleep.
Stacey lay on her stomach, holding her torso up with her elbows. She smiled and watched Aiden, making sure not to wake him up.
Aiden moved a little, turning to his side toward Stacey. He yawned after a minute, and opened his eyes sleepily. Aiden looked up at Stacey, and smiled drowsily.
Stacey laughed quietly. "Good morning." She sang in a low voice. She reached out and tousled his hair.
Aiden laughed quietly, and sleepily. "Good morning." He said back to her. Aiden leaned back up, and shook his head attempting to wake himself up.
"I could wake you up." Stacey said mischeviously, sitting up beside him.
He looked at her with his eyes squinting. "And hows that?" Aiden asked Stacey quietly.
Stacey held her hand up, a ball of cold water floating above her palm. "What`d you think I was gonna do?" She asked.
Aiden looked at her, and his eyes got a little bigger, but he still squinted. "Okay. Okay I'm awake." Aiden said quickly.
Stacey laughed and the water disappeared. "I wouldn`t have done that, ya know." She said, taking his hand.
A smile curved at the edges of his lips. Aiden shook his head drowsily. "I hope not." He said. He leaned forward, and looked at Stacey. "Did you sleep good?"
"Perfectly." Stacey replied, her eyes sparkling. "You?"
"Suprisingly well considering we are on a roof." Aiden answered with a crooked smile, all the signs of drowsiness gone. He lifted his arms, and stretched.
Stacey tilted her head, popping her neck with a crack. She brought her knees to her chest and wrapped her arms around her legs as she looked out to the grounds. The sun was just rising.
Aiden looked up at the sky, and wondered what time it was. He scratched the back of his neck. "I wonder what time it was. I hope no one noticed that we were gone." He said as he thought about curfew.
Stacey stared out into the horizon. "It`s about six in the morning. But it`s Sunday, so no one will be looking for us or anything."
Aiden nodded briskly, and looked back at her. So, since its pretty early what do you want to do?"
Stacey turned her head towards Aiden, a small frown on her face. "I picked last night." She said, breaking into a smile. "You`re turn!"
Aiden put one hand under his chin to make it seem like he was thinking. "What is there to do this early?" He asked thoughtfully.
Stacey looked at the sky. "I dunno. We can sit here. We can talk. We can sit here and talk. We can walk and talk. I don`t know."
Aiden stretched his arms again. "What do you want to talk about?" He asked. Aiden leaned back, and folded his arms behind his head.
((Huh?))
(Sorry lol I fixed it)
Stacey shrugged. "Whatever you want to talk about."
Aiden stood up suddenly, and held out his hand. "Well, I feel like getting up anway. Unless you want to stay up here on the roof." He said.
Stacey stood up and took his hand, her back popping a few times in the process. "Nah, I think if I stayed up here much longer I`d have to do yoga or something." She said teasingly.
Aiden smiled. "Yeah" He agreed as he stretched his arms again. "I'd have to join you." He added lightly with a wider grin.
Stacey smiled and took his hand again, stepping up to the edge of the roof. "Wanna jump?" She asked, estimating that the jump would be about twenty feet.
Aiden looked at the ground then at her. "Sure." He said before jumping down, and disappearing. He used a spell to help him land. Aiden looked up at Stacey. "Your turn."
Stacey laughed as Aiden landed. She waited a moment, then merely took a step forward. She raced towards the ground but a second before she hit the ground, her powers pulled her up and she landed softly right in front of Aiden.
Aiden nodded briskly. "Nicely done." He noted with a smile.
Stacey shrugged and tangled her fingers in his. "Where to?" She asked.
Aiden looked around. It was still foggy out, and most people would still be alseep. He looked back at Stacey. "We can walk around here, the beach, the forest, and wherever else there is. You pick."
Stacey wrinkled her nose; she had to pick. "I pick the beach." She decided, since she had to pick.
Aiden took Stacey's hand. He began to walk towards the beach. "So, did you have any dreams last night?" He asked randomly.
Stacey grinned. "Mabey." She taunted, squeezing his fingers.
He raised an eyebrow at Stacey. "Oh really? And what about?" Aiden asked interested.
Stacey rolled her eyes and pushed him playfully. ""What do you think I dreamed about?" She asked.
Aiden grinned widely. "I dunno ponies, unicorns, or maybe dragons?" He suggested with a laugh.
Stacey pushed Aiden softly. "Yeah, I dreamed about ponies." She said sarcastically.
Aiden chuckled. "That's dissapointing. Because I dreamed about you." He told her quickly.
Stacey smiled. "I dreamed about you too. I can`t believe you didn`t know that." She teased.
Aiden smiled. "I secretly knew. So, what happened in your dream?" He asked as they both walked, hand in hand, toward the beach.
Stacey thought for a moment. "Well, I dreamed about out honeymoon. Since I`m being kept from knowing where we`re going, I dreamed about it instead."
Aiden looked at her again. "Well, I guess if you really wanted to know....I could tell you." He said.
Stacey`s eyes lit up. "Really? You wouldn`t budge the other night!" She asked hopefully.
"I know how much this means for you, and I wouldn't want to keep that from you." Aiden told her.
Stacey squeezed his hand and kissed his cheek again. "Seriously?" She asked.
Aiden smiled, and nodded. "Really. If you want to know." He said.
Stacey raised her eyebrows expectantly, still smiling at him, waiting for his answer.
Aiden took a breath, and replied. "Well, your dad helped me pick out the place. It's a beach a few hours away from where you live. It has a beach house, that overlooks the ocean. It's supposed to be nice." He looked at Stacey.
Stacey smiled. "Are you serious?" She asked, her voice raising a few octaves. "Oh my gosh!" She hugged him tightly.
((Isle Esme? Hehehe))
Aiden hugged her back, a little suprised by her reaction. He smiled. "Yeah, I hope you like it."
(Hehe... =p)
"I`m sure I`ll love it." She whispered in his ear, still hugging him.
Aiden hugged her tightly. "I'm glad you do." He said with a larger grin.
Stacey laughed quietly and pulled away from him.
((Where are they?))
(Walking I think)
Aiden smile mischeviously now. "Ah, trying to run away I see?" He teased.
Stacey smiled mischeviously and her eyes were bright green. "Nah, just testing something." She taunted.
Aiden walked a little quicker. He raised an eyebrow. "Testing what?" Aiden asked as he tilted his head a little.
Stacey started walking backwards; for every step Aiden took forward she took a step backward. "Nope, it`s a secret."
Aiden walked faster towards Stacey. "Aww, I like secrets." He teased.
Stacey kept her pace. "Well, I don`t know what to tell you." She said, smiled brightly.
He slowed down to her pace. "Can't you give me a little hint?" Aiden said with a wink.
Stacey hummed thoughtfully and tilted her head. "Well, it has something to do with you." She kept walking, never slowing, never getting faster.
Aiden turned, and walked around Stacey so that he was behind her. He wrapped his arms around her, and continued to walk. "What about me?" Aiden asked in her ear.
Stacey turned her head into Aiden`s shoulder. "Hmm, I think you should take a guess." She teased.
"Hmmm...I'm guessing it's about you too. Or unless it's only about me?" Aiden guessed in her ear with an amused expression.
Stacey smiled. "I think it`s about both of us." She said softly.
Aiden nodded thoughtfully. "Can I have another hint?" He asked politely, with a smile.
Stacey wrinkled her nose playfully. "If I gave you another hint, you would get it." She complained, running her fingers over his arms that were around her.
He pressed his lips into a line. "Well, I honestly have no idea what it is." Aiden pointed out as he raised an eyebrow.
Stacey stopped walking, gently pushing both of them to a stop. She hugged his arms to her torso. "Don`t worry about it too much." She reassured. She carefully turned around so she faced him and she laced her arms around his neck. "You`ll figure it out."
Aiden studied her expression for a moment. "I doubt it, but alright. I guess I have no other choice." He said with a short smile.
Stacey smiled and kissed him softly. "Really, don`t worry. You`ll find out soon enough." Her features plainly backed up what she said was true.
Aiden leaned in, and quickly kissed her on the lips. "I hope so." He replied, interested.
Stacey`s eyes lightened as Aiden kissed her. She could have stood there all day, their arms wrapped around each other, but talking almost casually.
Aiden wrapped his arms around her tightly. He gave Stacey a bright smile.
Stacey returned his brilliant smile, her eyes lightening more. "What?" She asked, wondering what had caused him to smile.
Aiden shook his head shortly. "Nothing. You make me smile is all." He told her as he ran his fingers through the ends of her hair.
Stacey`s eyes brightened and she rested her head on his chest, letting him run his fingers through her hair. She sighed happily.
Aiden's eyes brightened as well. They were now a bright golden color. He took in a deep breath as he smiled.
Stacey`s smile got larger and she stated to hum softly. She hummed one of the songs Aiden let her listen to from hi s old CD.
Aiden smiled widely. He leaned in, and gently kissed her cheek. He had recognized the song.
Stacey`s eyes sparkled after Aiden kissed her cheek and she looked around. They were now near the trees of the forests. The sky was turning a light pink, only hited with blue, now.
Aiden squeezed her hand, and swung their arms back, and forth. He looked at the sky. "It's nice out tonight." He pointed out with a grin on his face.
Stacey smiled and nodded. "Yea, I bet the night sky will be really pretty." She said softly. She looked sideways at Aiden, wondering why he was grinning that way.
Aiden nodded. "Yes. I bet it would. You want to watch the sun set?" He asked quietly. He put his hands in his pockets.
Stacey kept her smile and her eyes twinled happily. "Only if you`ll watch it with me." She replied playfully.
Aiden lifted her hand, and gently kissed it. "I wouldn't miss it for the world." He answered simply. His eyes almost seemed to shine now.
Stacey`s eyes brightened and she leaned forward slightly to kiss him gently. "Good." She whispered, just leaning back enough to talk.
Aiden kissed her back. He suddenly smiled, and picked her up off the ground. He gently carried her to a large rock, and sat her down on it smoothly. Aiden chuckled before saying, "Is this a good spot?"
Stacey gasped in surprise as Aiden picked her up. As he set her down she smiled at him. "Perfect." She said, pulling him down next to her.
Aiden quickly sat down beside Stacey. He gently wrapped his arm around her, and he scooted closer to her.
Stacey smiled wickedly and rested her head on Aiden`s shoulder, pressing her side to his. "In`t this romantic." She said in a sarcastic voice.
Aiden grinned, and looked down at Stacey. "I would like to think so. I'm not the most romantic guy, but I try." He told her.
Stacey kissed him softly. "You`re romantic enough for me." She said sweetly.
Aiden tilted his head to the side. "Thanks." He answered quietly. He leaned in, and gently kissed her on the corner of her lips.
Stacey`s eyes lightened when he kissed her. "No problem." She replied, taking his hand.
Aiden leaned back, and looked into her eyes. He grinned, and lifted her hand. He kissed it gently. "I love you." Aiden whispered suddenly.
Stacey smiled and brushed her free hand over his cheek. "I love you too." She replied softly.
Aiden's eyes lightened some as he heard her words. This wasn't the first time that he had heard Stacey say it, but it still had the same affect on him every time she did. He suddenly smiled again.
Stacey sighed happily and ran her fingertips over his cheek, from his cheek bone to his jaw.
Aiden tilted his head slightly to the side, and stared into her eyes as she traced her fingers along his cheek.
Stacey paused her fingers. "What?" She asked, something she often did. She didn`t quite know why Aiden was so obsessed with her, but she was obssesed with him, so it was kinda even.
Aiden smiled lightly. "Nothing. Only thinking. So what were you testing exactly earlier?" He asked curiously, remembering what she had said.
Stacey`s eyes became slightly distant fo a moment, then she came back. "I don`t remember." She admitted.
Aiden chuckled. "Alright. So what do you want to do?" He asked as he ran his fingers through her hair thoughtfully.
Stacey smiled and hugged her fiance. "Sitting here with you is just fine for me." She said softly.
Aiden hugged her tightly, and kissed her cheek. "Me too." He agreed quietly with a smile.
Stacey`s eyes glimmered and she squeezed his fingers. "Anyway, you have to get used to having me around, Ill be here a while." She teased.
Aiden smiled lightly. "That's definatly something I can look forward too. It sounds like a good future to me." He told her.
Stacey`s smile grew slowly. "That`s good, becasue that is exactly how it`s going to be."
Aiden ran his fingers through her hair again. "I really hope so." He said sincerely.
Stacey kissed Aiden then rested her head on his chest. "You`d better hope so, especially since you will legally be with me forever in about four months." She reminded.
Aiden smiled, and tickled her side gently. "I can't think of anything better. However, you on the other hand....I don't think you could tolerate it." He teased before he kissed her forehead.
Stacey gasped and lifted her head. "Uh, hello, I`m the one that agreed; without me, there wouldn`t be an us." She pointed out.
Aiden pretended to pout so he puckered his lip out. "True...I guess I can't argue with that." He pointed out, smiling again. He slowly pulled Stacey closer to him.
Their faces were inches from each other and Stacey lifted her hand to cradle his cheek in her palm."That`s right, you can`t argue."
Aiden took the hand that was on his cheek, and wrapped it in his own hand. He kissed it softly. "I guess not. I wouldn't really want to anyway, I'm happy for it." Aiden told her.
Stacey gave a soft grin. "I agree. So I guess that means we agree to not disagree." She teased, gently squeezing his fingers.
Aiden smiled gently. "I guess so." He said as he squeezed her fingers too.
Stacey gave a quiet, happy sigh. Her eyes were bright and she was perfectly happy where she was.
Aiden wrapped his arm around her tighter in a warm hugged even though they were sitting down. To him, this is what a happy ending was although they still had alot of time ahead to be together. Aiden leaned closer to her. "I love you." He whispered in Stacey's ear.
Stacey smiled. "I love you more." She insisted softly.
Aiden shook his head slowly. "Nope. There is no possible way that another person could love someone as much as I love you." He disagreed as he smiled.
Stacey shook her ehad in disagreement. "Okay, then we have to be equal." She compromised.
Aiden thought for a moment then nodded. "Sure, that can work." He agreed happily.
Stacey smiled. "Of course it works; I thought of it." She said sarcastically.
Aiden laughed quietly. "Yeah. That's the first plan you ever thought of that works." He teased Stacey.
Stacey gasped, being overly-dramatic. "You`re the one that can be a standup comedian, even I`m funnier than you." She teased, flicking a lock of his hair into his eyes.
Aiden smiled, and stuck his tongue out at her playfully. "Well, that's not saying much." He pointed out as he laughed. Aiden flipped his hair out of his eyes, and smiled wider.
Stacey laughed and leaned against his chest, wrapping her arms around his neck. She gave a contented sigh. "You trying to be funny is almost hard to watch." She pestered.
Aiden leaned back against the couch more so that they were laying down. He pouted. "Wow. Had I known I was that bad...." He said, not finishing his sentence.
Stacey wrinkled her nose and breathed on Aiden`s neck, knowing it would tickle him. "Whatever." She said, putting her head back on his chest.
Aiden shivered slightly as goosebumps rose on his neck. He smiled, and looked at his fiance. Aiden slowly ran his fingers though Stacey's hair, and took in a deep breath.
Stacey grinned and slowly moved her hands to the back of her head to find his hands. She took his hands and sat up, still laying over him. She layed his hands on his chest and traced designs over the back of his hands, her skin just barely touching his.
Aiden took in another breath, and watched as Stacey traced patterns over the back of his hands.
Slowly, the designs she traced started to glow. The light radiated a slight warmth.
Aiden tilted his head to one side, and watched as the designs Stacey traced began to glow on his skin. He couldn't notice the warmth from the light on his naturally hot skin. Aiden smiled a little.
Stacey`s fingers paused and she looked up at Aiden through her thick eyelashes, her eyes a brilliant blue. "I love you, you know." She reminded.
Aiden looked at her, his face serious. "I love you." He whispered back sincerely. "Honestly, I don't think I have or could love someone as much as I love you."
Stacy smiled slowly. "And that`s one reason I love you so much." She whispered back, her eyes sparking brightly.
Aiden's expression slowly turned into a happy smile. "As I love you." He whispered, hugging her closer to him.
Stacey lifted her head to press her lips against his. "You say that so often, it`s impossible not to believe, you know." She teased, pulling back just a fraction of an inch.
Aiden naturally frowned a little as she pulld back so soon. He raised an eyebrow. "Well, then what should I do to make you believe me?" He inquired.
Stacey kissed Aiden again softly. "Don`t worry, I believe you more than anything." She whispered in reply.
Aiden kissed her back softly. He reluctantly pulled back so he could reply. "Hmmm...well I'm still up to the challenge." He told her with a little smile curving at the end of his lips.
Stacey rasied an eyebrow, still smiling. "And what challenge is that?" She asked quietly.
"To show you how much I love you." Aiden answered her. He tilted his head to one side, and looked at Stacey. His eyes glowed brightly. "Any suggestions?"
Stacey`s smile grew, then she kissed him again. "How about you come up with your own way to say how much you love me?" She suggested.
Aiden shrugged pressed his lips together into a hard line. "How would I do that?" He asked curiously.
Stacey shrugged softly. "I don`t know, you show me." She challenged.
Aiden tilted his head once more, and began to think of something he hadn't done before. "Can I have a hint?" He asked in a small voice.
"Nope." Stacey said quickly. "I want you to tell me what you think."
He cursed under his breath, and smiled once more. "Alright. However, it may take me a minute to think of one." Aiden pointed out as he raised his eyebrow again.
Stacey`s smiled back sweetly and waited patiently. She began to run her fingers over his palm again.
Aiden puckered his bottom lip out in a frown. "I'm dying here. I need a little hint." He begged, breaking the silence.
Stacey ran her finger around to trace his bottom lip. "I can`t give you a hint. Just tell me how you would show me how much you love me, from your perspective." She wasn`t going to give up on this.
Aiden suddenly smiled wryly. "I don't think I can, but I suppose I'll try to think of a way." He replied with a thoughtful expression.
Stacey smiled. "You`d better think of a way." She teased.
Aiden bit his lip again. "Well, give me an example. I'm not asking for a hint, just a way to help me think of an idea." He suggested.
Stacey pushed out her bottom lip as she thought. "Okay, say we`re in the middle of nowhere, by ourselves and I`m crying my eyes out because I`m scared." She rolled her eyes to herself, becasue she could just teleport them somewhere if that happened. "What would you do?"
Aiden smiled, this made it easier. "Well, obviously I would try to make you feel better. I would tell you that everything is going to be okay, and I would never let anything happen to you as long as I'm around."
Stacey rolled her eyes again. "Okay, that wasn`t a good example, you think of something." She pleaded pathetically.
Aiden chuckled lightly. "Well, how would you want me to show you?"
"I don`t know." Stacey said again, slightly louder than her previous words. "Just show me." She pleaded.
Aiden nodded, and leaned forward to kiss her softly. He didn't exactly know how else to show her such a thing.
Stacey smiled and kissed him back, putting one hand on his chest, keeping her other hand in his.
Aiden moved his free hand to rest softly on Stacey's cheek, and used his other hand to move to her waist as he still held her hand. He sighed happily.
Stacey moved her free hand to Aidn`s cheek, gently brushing her cool fingers over his skin. She squeezed the hand at her waist.
Aiden squeezed her hand, and moved it toward her back. He leaned back a little to speak. "Was that good?" He asked Stacey with a large grin on his face.
Stacey smiled. "Close." She said before pressing her lips back against his.
Aiden smiled, amused. He held his fiance closer to himself, and his eyes glowed again.
Stacey smiled and leaned into him more.
(( XD ))
(Haha that was random lol)
Aiden squeezed her hand again, and closed his eyes slowly.
((Haha, I know. Sorry I had to go; I was at my grandma`s earlier and I had to come home.))
Stacey sighed and soon her breathing became slower and more even.
(Oh lol its alright)
Aiden took in a deep breath, and smiled.
((This is getting kinda hard to post in. Sorry, I have to get off. It`s one in the morning right now. I`ll be on tommorrow.))
Stacey slowly fell asleep there with a smile on her face and in Aiden`s arms. Withing ten minutes of falling alseep, she culled up into his side.
(Kk. Night.)
Aiden closed his eyes tighter, as his breath slowed. He too began to fall asleep.
(Morning?)
((Sure. Oh, by the way, my mom wants me to get off, but she`s like, falling alseep, so I`m going to stay on as long as I can without getting in trouble.))
(Okay. Yay. lol XD)
Aiden slowly opened his eyes as the bright sun shined through the window, illuminating the room. He drowsily looked around the room as he tried to remember why he was here. Aiden rubbed the sleep from his eyes, now remembering the events of last night. He looked down at Stacey who was asleep against him. He was careful not to move so he wouldn't wake her up.
((And of course as soon as I said that my mom woke up...))
Stacey`s eyes opened slowly as the first rays of light filtered through the window. She felt the warmth of the sun of her back and woke up slightly surprised. She soon as she sat up, though, she remember the previous night, and she smiled.
(lol bad luck >.<)
Aiden looked down at Stacey as she slowly woke up a few minutes after he had. He squeezed her hand softly. "Goodmorning love." He whispered in her ear. The room gradually got lighter as the dawn's rising sun got higher in the sky. It was still early in the morning.
Stacey`s smile widened for a moment, but then it disappeared and was replaced by a frustruated expresion. Her brows were scrunched together and her forhead was wrinkled. She looked like she was trying to think or remember something.
Aiden looked down at her thoughtful expression. He tilted his head to one side curiously. "Something wrong?" He mused quietly.
Stacey turned her gaze to Aiden. "When you call me love, I never know how to reply." She answered softly.
Aiden pressed his lips together into a line. "Would you rather me not call you that?" He asked thoughtfully.
Stacey suddenly smiled. "No, I love it when you call me that, it`s just I don`t know how to reply. It sounds so sincere and honest, you can`t relly compare it to anything else." She explained quickly.
Aiden smiled as she did. "You don't have to reply if you don't want to." He told Stacey. Aiden put his hand on her cheek, and leaned forward to kiss the edge of her lips. "You are my love." He whispered, his eyes glowing with admiration.
Stacey leaned forward slightly so she could kiss him. "But then what are you?" She asked in a playful tone.
Aiden smiled even wider as she kissed him. "Thats your choice." He told her, just as playful.
Stacey smiled. "Fine, then you can be..." She pretended to think for a while, putting a finger to ehr chin as part of the act. "Got it! You can be my moon. Life just wouldn`t be the same without the moon."
Aiden nodded. "Moon. I like that." He said grinning. "It's settled then. You're my love, and I'm your moon."
Stacey rolled her eyes and rested her head on his shoulder. She then realized that they wad just woken up. It was still early, but they would have to go back to the dormitories soon.
Aiden looked around at the dimly lit room. They would obviously be the only ones awake at this hour. However, he wasn't tired enough to go back to sleep.
Stacey stared at fireplace for a moment; the fire had died down and the house elves hadn`t come around to relight them yet, so she shot a small flame towards it.
Aiden watched as the fire lit up, making the dimly lit room illuminate with brightness. He smiled a little, and sighed quietly.
Stacey heard a small click coming from above them and she sighed heavily before looking at Aiden. "I don`t want to go, yet." She pouted softly.
Aiden looked at her, and shrugged his shoulders. "Me either. Do you have classes?" He asked curiously.
"Potions and Defense." She replied automatically, having memorized her schedual a long time ago.
Aiden nodded thoughtfully. "I'd have to look at my schedule." He pointed out. After all the events of last night, he had forgotten about school.
There were more noises coming from above them and Stacey sighed again. "My third hour is free, I`ll see you then?" She asked hopefully.
Aiden nodded, and grinned. "Of course." He agreed. He probably wasn't going to go to his classes anyway. He'd prefer to skip. Aiden looked at the ceiling as he heard noises from upstairs. He put one hand on her cheek, and kissed her softly before some students began to come down the stairs, into the common room.
Stacey kissed him back uickly before turning the both of them invisable. If they were seen by the other students, they could get in trouble. Stacey squeezed hi hand again before silently making her way into the girls` dorm.
Aiden squeezed her hand back, and quietly walked up the boys' dormitory. He wasn't noticed by any of the students as he turned visible, and began to get ready for the day.
Stacey struggled through the rest of her day. Her potions teacher kept telling her to redo her mix, and her partner wasn`t helping any. Defense Against the Dark Arts was easier, all she had to do was take notes then make a pixie blow up.
When her third our came, she rushed back to the common room, anxious.
Aiden sat in the common room patiently. He wore a black long-sleeved shirt with the sleeves rolled up and some blue jeans. He had on his school uniform earlier, but he decided to change. Aiden was sitting on the couch in front of the fire, stretched out, and relaxed. He looked up as Stacey arrived. "Hello." He greeted her with amusement in his tone.
Stacey smiled and moved to sit next to him. "Hey." She replied, smoothing out her plaid skirt of her uniform. Her eyes lightened slightly.
Aiden stretched his arm out across the back of the sofa so it was around Stacey's shoulders. "How was your day my dear?" He asked happily.
Stacey winked playfully. "Better that it`s dark enough to see my moon." She replied, using the name she had just given him that morning.
Aiden smiled at the reference to his name. "Well, it's nice to see you too my love." He said.
Stacey wrinkled her nose for a moment, then grinned. "So whatcha wanna do?" She asked.
Aiden smiled again. "It's entirely up to you. This is going to be your day." He answered.
((Let`s say today is Friday, okay? Lol, ever-lasting weekend!))
Stacey wrinkled her nose. "But I`m free the rest of the day, why don`t you pick?" She asked, half pleading.
(Haha sounds good to me!)
Aiden smiled wryly. "I'm free too. How about we at least get out of here." He suggested. "I feel like I've been sitting here all day."
Stacey laughed. "Kknowing you, you probably have." She teased before standing up.
Aiden laughed but didn't say anything to give himself away for skipping his classes. He took her hand, and began to walk out of the room.
Stacey kept pace with Aiden until they got outside. The looked around. The grass was bright green and everything was growing. "Where to now?" She asked, lloking up to see how blue the sky was.
Aiden looked around. "Want to just walk around?" He asked, motioning with his fingers a circle. He smiled with amusement. It was a cool day out.
Stacey smiled. "Sounds good to me; lead the way." She said, starting down the stairs.
Aiden smiled, and squeezed her hand. He slowly led them down the stairs, and around the grounds. "It's a nice day out." He noted aloud.
Stacey nodded, absorbed in the bright colors to hear much. Everything was either green or blue, and even the Lake looked cheerful.
Aiden smiled even wider, and looked at the many sights. A bird chirped and sang in a nearby tree, and you can hear the waves of the lake crash against the sandy shore in the distant.
Stacey smiled as a breeze blew around her, making her hair blow out from her shoulders. The smell of spring surrounded her.
((Yea, if only the stupid snow would go away.))
(Ugh I hate snow...)
Aiden took in a deep breath. He squeezed her hand, and began to lead them into another direction.
Stacey felt the change of direction and followed Aiden. "So, where we headed?" She asked; it seemed he knew where he was going.
Aiden looked around at the scenery. "No where in particular. I do want to show you something though." He answered with a hint of a smile appearing.
Stacey smiled. "What do you want to show me?" She asked, honestly curious.
Aiden squeezed her fingers gently. "It's a place I found awhile ago. It's nice." He answered, not giving anything else away.
Stacey stuck out her tounge. "That`s not fair." She pouted.
Aiden laughed before saying, "Of course it is. It won't take that long to walk anyway." He led them toward the direction of their destination.
Stacey sighed and impatiently followed Aiden. She swung their hands back and forth while they slolwy made their way to wherever they were going.
Aiden led them toward the forest. Not exactly to it but towards that direction. He looked at the sky as they walked.
Stacey sighed heavily. "You would make me a lot happier if we could go a little faster." She complianed lightly.
Aiden laughed quietly, and began to walk a little faster. He led the towards the edge of the forest, near the lake. After they passed some heavy undergrowth it revealed a large clearing with a small spring. It was surround by small smooth rocks. Aiden squeezed her hand, and led them onto a rock, and he sat down on top of it. "What do you think?" He asked.
Stacey`s eyes widened slightly when they approached the spring. She slowly sat down next to Aiden, taking in her surroundings. "It`s... magical." She answeed softly.
Aiden smiled, and squeezed her fingers. "Yeah, I thought you'd like it." He said as he shuffled his feet over the ground. He looked at the spring.
Stacey leaned forward slightly to touch the water with her fingertips. She slowly let her hand fall under the cool liquid.
Aiden watched her put her hand in the water. "I heard the water is constantly warm, even in the winter." He told her quietly with a short smile showing at the edges of his lips.
"Mmm." Stace agreed. "It`s not warm, but it`s not cold." She clairified.
Aiden nodded, and bent down so he was the same height at Stacey. "Yeah. I've never seen water like it." He told her.
Stacey leaned forward slightly so she was leaning over the water. One little nudge would have her soaking wet, but she doubted Aiden would push her, even if he did, he knew he would be getting wet, too.
"There has to be something magical in it, otherwise it would most likely freeze over in the winter."
Aiden looked down at the sparkling water, and he ran his hand through it. "I've always wondered how it got this way. Maybe some sort of spell?" He suggested aloud.
"Probably." She answered softly, brushing her hand against his under the water.
Aiden gently took her hand under the water as he sat down on the ground. The sun illuminated his pale skin, showing his glowing eyes.
Stacey smiled and tilted her head. "What?" She asked, not sure if she wanted to know the answer; the things he said to her always made her feel like she was in a fairy tale.
((Sigh. If only her were real.))
(I wish lol)
Aiden smiled at her. "Nothing. I just can't help but be happy when I'm with you." He told her quietly as he looked down at their intertwined hands.
Stacey`s grin grew and she leaned forward slowly to kiss him softly.
Aiden looked at her, and kissed her softly on the lips. His eyes continued to glow brightly with affection.
Stacey slwoly closed her eyes and looped her free arm over his shoulders.
Aiden held her closer to him to make the kiss more passionate. He parted his lips, and closed his eyes also.
Stacey parted her lips also, and leaned into him, hugging herself to him.
Aiden moved his free hand to her cheek, and caressed it in his hand. The moon grew higher in the sky, and it reflected off of the warm spring. He could hear the running water in the background.
Stacey tensed ever so slightly as a new thought came into her head. She hesitated for a moment, the quickly brought her toungue against his lip.
Aiden stopped for a moment, a little surpised. He then leaned forward again and went along with it, making the kiss more passionate.
((I`m confused.))
Stacey relaxed tensed then relaxed slightly. She gently squeezed his hand.
(Bout what?)
Aiden smiled, and leaned in closer to her. He squeezed her hand back.
((I dunno. I confuse myself a lot... >.< ))
Stacey smiled and pulled away slightly. She opened her eyes, which were now brilliant blue.
(Haha me too lol)
Aiden smiled back, and looked at her brilliantly blue eyes. His eyes were his own shade of an almost gold color.
Stacey smiled and leaned to the side to th=ouch the water again.
Aiden smiled, and stood up. He put his hands in his pockets, and looked down at the water.
Stacey`s head tilted instinctively as she thought of something. "How`d you find this place?" She asked, turning her gaze on Aiden.
Aiden shrugged his shoulders, and scuffled his heel over the ground. "I was walking around, and I stumbled across it I guess. I couldn't really miss it." He told Stacey as he looked down at her.
Stacey smiled. "I can`t believe I`ve never found it. I`ve been through these trees so many times. Mabey it has a charm on it..." Her voice trailed off thoughtfully.
Aiden nodded. "Your probably right" He concluded "I've been through this part of the forest too, and before a week ago I've never seen it." He paused, and sat back down. "I wonder what sets it off." Aiden murmered thoughtfully.
Stacey crunched her eyebrows togther, something she did when she thought hard. Absentmindedly, she leaned forward and put her hand against her chin. "I wonder...." She said softly.
Aiden grinned again. "I wonder....I guess we could find out." He suggested.
Stacey nodded. "But how would we do that?" She asked.
Aiden began to rock slowly from side to side. The weather made him in a good mood. "I dunno. Any suggestions?"
Stacey snorted. "Hey, I know I so smart and stuff, but I`m not that smart."
Aiden laughed quietly. He narrowed his eyes with an amused expression. "Do you really think I'm smart enough?" He inquired.
Stacey`s features turned completely sincere. "Of course. Just because I know more than most doesn`t mean you have to be Super Man." She gently squeezed his hand.
Aiden grinned lightly. "Thats good because I'm not close.
Stacey leaned forward and kissed him quickly. "That`s right; you`re much better than Super Man." She whispered.
Aiden smiled ever more brightly as she kissed him. "And your my love, my princess, and my life." He whispered back. His eyes glowed with admiration.
Stacey wrinkled her nose. "That`s not fair." She complained as yet again he had said things she didn`t deserve to hear.
Aiden smiled crookedly. "Of course it is. Why shouldn't it be?" He asked with a hint of amusement in his tone.
Stacey couldn`t help but smile back. "Becasue when you say things like that you make me feel like I`m better than everyone else." She explained, still smiling, knowing her fight was already lost.
Aiden saw that knowing look in her eye. "Well love, thats why I'm here for." He said, his eyes brightening.
Stacey sighed softly and hugged him tightly. "I know. But what am I here for then?"
Aiden smiled, and tilted his head. He wrapped his arms around her comfortingly. "You tell me." He answered as he looked down at her.
Stacey smiled. "I`m here because without me the whole world would fall apart." she replied with a large smile.
Aiden's smile turned crookedly. "Thats true because you should know by now that I can't live without you. Not now." He told her. b]
Stacey leaned forward and kissed him softly. "And you also know by now that I`m not going anywhere. Ever." She whispered.
Aiden leaned forward to kiss her back. "Thats probably one of the best things I've ever heard." He replied lightly.
Stacey smiled widely and leaned back slightly. "How did someone like me end up with someone like you?" She asked, tilting her head to the side.
Aiden shook his head, and smiled. "How can you ask something like that? You should give yourself more credit." He told Stacey.
Stacey shook her head in opposition. "Really, I`m nothing special. So how did someoe normal end up with someone spectacular?"
Aiden took Stacey's hand, and kissed it softly. "I sometimes ask myself the same thing. I don't think I deserve someone so great." He replied, meaning himself as the normal one.
Stacey shook her head slowly. "Come on, I`m not far from mormal. But you`re just amazing." Her eyes shined brilliant blue as she locked them with his.
Aiden slowly shook his head. He figured there was no point in disagreeing. Neither of them would give in. "I love you." He whispered.
Stacey smiled, sensing that she had won the small argument. "I love you, too." She replied, putting her hand over his.
Aiden returned the smile with a large grin. He gently rubbed his thumb over her hand as he looked into her eyes.
Stacey sighed softly. "So, what do we do now?" She asked. "Now that we`ve both gotten everything off of our chests."
Aiden looked at Stacey, and leaned back. "I don't know. What do you think we should do?" He asked quietly.
Stacey smiled. "Well, I think we should probably go to bed or something. Before people start coming down for breakfast." She glanced out the window quickly as she spoke.
Aiden nodded in agreement however much he didn't like the idea. "You're probably right. Espeically considering you haven't slept all night." He said quietly.
Stacey pushed Aiden lightly. "Come on, I sleep just enough." She pleaded. "You don`t sleep enough either." She said as she wrinkled her nose.
Aiden shrugged his shoulders. "Well, I guess suppose your right. What classes do you have tomorrow?" He asked Stacey.
Stacey furrowed her brows together as she thought. "Potions. Defense. Transfiguration. Arthmetic. And... advanced Spells?" She answered.
Aiden nodded, and suddenly smiled wryly. "I'm probably not going to go to any of my classes today. But I suggest you get some sleep love." He told Stacey quietly.
Stacey nodded slowly, but lifted her head towards Aiden until their lips met softly. "I love you, my moon." She whispered before relectantly pulling herself from his warm arms.
Aiden kissed her back every so softly. "I love you." He whispered back.
Stacey squeezed his hand one last time before trailing up to the dormitories. She glanced back at him before she closed the door.
Aiden watched her walk up the stairs toward her dormitory. Right before she was out of sight, when she took the last glance Aiden smiled at her. He then sighed quietly, and looked into the fire. Part of him was tired but another knew he wasn't going to be able to sleep right now. Aiden leaned back on the couch, and closed his eyes to think.
Just then before Stacy left Alica came and saw Stacy and flew into a temper,because Aiden was her boy friend.She stoped before she could start the tantrum,and sat next to Aiden,moved his head and said "What's wrong honey bunch?"
((Uh...wtf. Seriously you need to stop spamming other peoples topics. It is getting very annoying, and I'm starting to get pissed.))
