A Break from Studies

She smiled as she drew her attention from the sky back to him. He seemed to look nervous and she was tempted to ask if he was alright but didn't ask as she looked back up at the stars once more. It wasn't until he spoke that she was brought back down to reality. "Yeah it is." she replied, "I love the stars, especially on a night like this." she continued to say looking at him moving slightly closer.

Nathan took off his hoodie and followed her gaze to the stars. As she began to talk, he tore his eyes off the stars and went to look at her. She was talking about the stars; he felt her moving slightly closer to him and the closer she got the faster his heart was racing against his chest. "Yeah. It a beaut isn't it," he told her. "Just like you," he smiled.

"I can't be that pretty." she replied looking at him a slight blush against her cheeks once more. "Not as pretty as the stars." The more he complemented her the more her heart felt like it was rising up into her throat. Not a bad kind of nervousness but a good kind. The kind she liked to feel. Knowing something good could happen but not knowing what it would be.

"Your too modest," he told her looking at her, noticing a slight brush on her cheeks. "Maybe not you it might not seem. But to me you are," said Nathan. He smiled and looked away from her; he realized that he knew very little of the girl so he looked back at her with a cute, devilish smile on his lips. "Tell me about you," he told her.

"I'm usually not modest." she replied looking at him, "I'm actually quite the extrovert if you catch me on a good day." She smiled at him and then he asked to know more about her. "Well what do you want to know?" she asked curiously. She wouldn't just start babbling about herself. Not until she knew if he had specifics to talk about it. Christy was never nervous around people or boys but for some reason she was nervous around Nathan.

She couldn't put her finger on it, but after everything that had seemed to go wrong were they finally starting to right themselves once more? Was she actually developing...feelings for him? It felt like it. She moved now to where she was up against him, her lip quivering slightly.

"This is not a good day for you?" asked Nathaniel smiling, softly at her and as she asked what he wanted to know - about her. He considered on this sorting out what exactly he wanted to know about her and leaving out all the questiont that could've been very personal. "Favorite movie, music and hobbies - when were you born and where," he listed a few thing he wanted to know about her.

"Today is a better day than the last few." she said smiling sweetly. It had been true. The last week had been a complete and utter hell for her for a lack of better description. She could tell he thought about what he wanted her to say before he asked what he had. She thought it was sweet of him. "My favorite movie?" she asked looking at him and then thinking. "Hmm...I'd have to say What a Girl wants." she continued speaking, "I listen to pretty much any music actually I'm not that picky. Though my favorite band in the world is Nightwish." she said looking down towards her hoodie. "But then again you could have probably already told that about me."

She got to the part that everyone found so interesting, "I was born and raised in Germany. In a castle right outside of the small village of Fussen, sixteen years ago. My father was the German minister of Magic." she smiled sweetly and looked at him inching just a tiny bit closer to him, "What about you?" she asked curiously. She was just as interested to learn about him as he had seemed to want to know about her.

Nathaniel stood there, taking his time to absorb all the information inside his head. Repeating it if he had to; he closed his eyes to enjoy the sound of her voice and fluttered it open as soon as he heard that she was asking about him. Um... his mind was telling him as he racked through his brain to find out what his favorite movie, music and bands. "My favorite movie is Terminator and I am Legend," he told her. "And my favorite music would have to be.. well like you i'm not so picky," grinned Nathaniel as he looked away from her to look at the sky. "My favorite band is Nickelback," he said.

"Hmmm favorite song by Nickelback?" she asked looking at him curiously. She could tell him her favorite song by them. "They're a great band. I love a bit of their songs." she said smiling. "Not as great live though as you would seem to think." She looked up at the moon in the sky. "We'll have a blue moon this month." she said more so to herself than to him.

"Never gonna be alone," answered Nathaniel, saying his favorite song completely no sentence just the name. It was cold - the air seem to be ripping and tearing into his jacket and onto his skin; he cupped his hand together and breathed into it to keep him warm. "Yeah. Some of their songs are alright, like Far Away for example," he nodded in agreement as he noticed she was at least two inch closer, he ignored it and looked up a, smiling brightly at her. "Never heard them live," he laughed.
