The moonlight glistened, lightening our way and the hushed song of silence in the air got broken by our quiet steps marching down the street.
Staring above at the dark sky where the stars were almost invisible, I walked ahead with my eyebrows virtually kissing each other.
"Keep staring like that and you'll might distract an Alien or two" His deep husky chuckle echoed from behind.
Rolling my eyes, I tilted my head to the side to look at his shimmery eyes and said "How mature. Who even believes in Aliens?"
He snorted before letting out "Clearly not me. But I love to read about them and sometimes, unsolved mys-"

I felt a slight pain, burning up my toes, clearly walking in heels was not for me as I shrugged "I don't know for sure, though I can go whole night talking about my fascination towards the stars, but I don't want to s-"
