In the serenade of the black, the stars were a choir, they were lights that sung in infinite patterns. Sometimes eyes needed music, and the darker the night the sweeter the song
Amid the wintry air, beneath the noble starry-black, the two girls observed the beauty of the moon. She graced Earth's sky to glow equally for all, a picture in light as if created by love
Or the tension between the two girls that kept glancing at each other and giggling with rosy cheeks
The glow of the grey howl moon made its presence inside the car. Autumn's hands gripped the steering wheel and her chuckle filled the car
"You did not just say that!" Kate laughed
"It's true, she seems all cute in public but she's the freakiest person you'll ever meet" Autumn smiled
"I refuse to believe that" Kate glared
"Maybe I'll introduce you to her and you'll find out for yourself" Autumn said as she glanced over to the girl
For those few seconds, Kate felt a small part of her heart swell. A burning sensation reached her cheek as she looked away, trying to distract herself by glancing out the window
But that small swelling in her chest grew bigger when a warm touch invaded her senses
Autumn's fingers intertwined with the girl's before she brought them to her lips, giving them a small and tender kiss
Kate's heart dropped in her chest as she felt a rush of her emotions take over her, that burn of her cheek only increased its dosage
"You okay over there Wilson?" Autumn chuckled, glancing over to the girl
"Y-yes. I'm fine" Kate muttered before biting down on her bottom lip, containing her burning blush
"God you're so cute" Autumn chuckled
A slow drive through what seemed to be a narrow path in the woods, but Kate wasn't scared. In all honesty, she was more curious to know what awaited her on their journey
But she did underestimat the utter blackness of night time in the woods. In her mind the trees would be black trunks against a bluish charcoal sky, the path would become deepest brown and the moonlight would bleach the stones within it
The moon stayed strong in the sky, its silvery rays penetrated the dense canopy above
Kate had always found the darkness strange. She didn't live in the heart of a city but she didn't live where was dim either. She had grown used to having the warming, orange glow of streetlamps outside her window, their light filtering in through the gaps in the curtains. This was a blackness that she couldn't recall seeing before - one that was almost absolute
Warm fingers stayed intertwined with hers as they rested on her thighs, Autumn leaned back into her seat while her feet pressed a little slower on the gas pedal
Kate then tilted her head skyward, she could see clearly millions of bright stars dotted on the black canvas of night, a sight to perfect to fit the warm feeling she had bubbling inside her
The car came to a halt but before she could even glance over to her date, the warm fingers left her own and a familiar head was zooming across to her side
Soft warm lips crashed down on her own and Kate felt herself melt in her booths like ice cream in a heat wave
Her eyes fluttered closed as an electric feeling carried its way down her body and reach her fingertips
