the decisive moment

Akiva woke up with a jump. He had felt something or someone pass by him. He looked around and saw no sign of movement or shadows. He was beautiful in an angel like kind of way. He had thick,short black hair that shined in the sunlight, his skin was light brown and he was very tall. But the best part of him was his eye's. 

Right now they were open wide in fright trying to find something that could have woke him up, but even now they were beautiful. They were light chocolate brown with a ring of darker brown on the inside near the pupil. They were filled with joy and happiness and every time you looked into them you couldn't help feel that happiness that's so peaceful. He relax's a little, as well as his muscles, when he saw who was sleeping silently beside him. 

She was beautiful as well tall with long,blond hair and her features fit her face perfectly. Karou was still asleep, Akivia watched her breath slowly in and out and just wanted to wake her up so he could look into her eyes again. Karou had light blue eyes, they reminded Akiva of the sky on a lovely summers day, so free and brought happiness and sunshine to everyone,just like her personality. They were just newly weds so Akiva still hasn't gotten use to waking up beside her. Every time he does he gets a new rush of happiness and hope for the future. 

His childhood was full of moving around, parents fighting and drunken dads. He had gotten use to the feeling of emptiness but when he meet Karou he knew straight away life could be different and he was determined to make it different. When ever they looked at each other it's like there's a connection between them and no matter how far away they are from each other there look could make it feel like there touching. 

After a few seconds Karou's eyes flickered open and all the anxiety he had washed away the minute he met Karou's eyes. Karou felt a hot red rush coming over her chest and onto her face when she say how Akiva was staring at her in awe, wounder and love. She could see that Akiva was starting to blush as well, like hes just been caught in a forbidden act. 

The corners or his lips curled up into a shy smile and he whispered "good morning" 

She smiled back and just whispered "shh, if you don't acknowledge it maybe it will go away". 

They layed there for a few more minutes intertwined with each other just planning out there day. By know Akiva had completely forgotten about that weird, watching feeling he had gotten when he woke up. They both got up and went to get breakfast to prepare for the long day they had just planned. Which mainly consist of unpacking and sorting out there new house and his workshop out side.

There house was an old two story Georgian house on the outskirts of the town. It was painted white on the outside with the window frames and ledges painted blue. They had two bedrooms one with and en suite, a main bathroom, kitchen, small hall, dinning room and a sitting room. Its not a big house but its perfect for them. Nether of them grew up with a home to call there own but they wanted to change that and make a different life with there future children. They got alot of there boxs unpacked and sorted out before dinner. Every now and then Akiva would get the same feeling as if someone was watching. Watching what? He thought. He knew it wasn't watching him. Akiva looked around the room slowly taking in and focusing on everything trying to see what it could be thats causing this feeling or what it is watching. He could only notice one thing it could be watching and then panic set over him. He was raking his brain to find another thing but nothing came to him. He looked desperately at his new,beautiful wife. Karou wasn't looking at him so he let the horror and panic show on his face. She was stacking up DVD's and CD's and humming the words to her favorite song. He tried to find what was watching her but he couldn't see anything. He knew something bad was going to happen not just to him but to Karou as well. He could feel the glaring of eyes on her and he didn't know what he could do to protect his beautiful wife from what he couldn't see or even no if it was anything at all. "Of course it wasn't anything". He tried to convince himself "don't be so stupid! Your just freaking out about having a normal life" . after thinking that a light hysterical laugh came up in his chest. But the feeling didn't go away. And later he would regret not doing anything about it.
