Starlit, a story of love
from the mind of Adaephon

Two lovers look into the sky as a chill night wind picks up. He pulls her closer, and she curls deeper into his arms. The starlight turns the grasses of the plain into silver waves, softly shifting as the wind rolls over them. The dark trees behind them whisper to the breeze as an owl hoots somewhere deep within.

They turn to gaze into each others' eyes, still curled close together. The night couldn't be more perfect- not a cloud in the sky to block the stars, and their warmth wards agains the wind's chill breath. The air around them feels alive, thick with emotion. 

He smiles gently, resting his forehead against hers and staring deeper into her eyes. The hoots are now closer, but neither of them are paying attention to the world around them. He slowly leans in for a kiss as the owl hoots again. When the kiss is done, the owl glides gently down to land before them.

If owls could smile...
