Tenshi let go of his face and wrapped her arms behind Night's neck, deepening the kiss. This felt right, just the two of them. She would be happy, even if she never remembered. Though the remembering would be a good bonus. A moment later Tenshi pulled away and rested her flushed face against Night's chest, trying to catch her breath. "This is..." she couldn't find the words for it, "Does this mean we're...?"

"Hey, not warning me is cheating!" Salem yelled to the boy that was slowly gain distance on her. She then pat the horse with her free hand, seeing as she was riding western style and said, "It's ok girl, we're still gonna beat them." Here eyes then landed on a path to the side. It ducked back into the woods, but something in her mind led her there. Something told her that this was going to be quicker. She followed that thought. She didn't know what is was about that thought that made her think it was quicker. The trail was longer, the only difference was, was that even though the path was near the edge, it was engulfed in almost complete darkness because the foliage was so thick.

"Hey, boy we are a head of her just push a little more and we will be there." Mat said to Soot as he patted his neck, what he didn't expect was Salem and Angel Star to pop out the woods infront of him. It caused him to pull Soot to a stop and watch them continue to the barn. He had Soot trot over to them, knowing he had lost. He didn't completely under stand how until he saw the spot that she had come out at. He grinned at her, he couldn't help but feel like he had gotten his Salem back after all those years of her being gone.

Night smiled and wrapped his arms around her as she rested against him. He stroked her head softly and couldn't believe how easily she made him fall all over again. "Not until I ask..." he said and smiled. He then lifted her chin so she would look at him and he lovingly brushed the hair out of her face. "Tenshi would you go out with me?" he asked softly and looked at her his green eyes gleaming with soft care.

Salem looked back at the woods real quick when she noticed how it clost it had brought her to Matt. Well, in front of him really. A huge smile formed on her face as she made it back to the barn. She just rode Angel Star in a few circles to help calm her down. The horse was breathing hard, it almost seemed like she wasn't used to running at all. When Matt got up to her she said, "And I have discovered a worm hole on your property. Weird, I didn't think that would really work." She then thought it over and she really didn't understand how she had beaten the boy.

((sorry can't think of anything at the moment))

"I..." She paused, she could see the care in his eyes. She knew he wouldn't hurt her but...could she really do this? After all she had just met him (again) today. Yet something was telling her to say yes, something that made her feel like she'd known this boy longer than she'd been alive, like they had been tied together since before they had been born. "I would...like that..." she whispered, her voice trailing off at the end.

Night smiled and releaf washed over him. That little pause had scared him half to death. But hearing her say yes made him hugged her lovingly and yet at the same time protectively. Ever since he could remember he always thought he should be with someone... And when he had found Tenshi when they were young she made the feeling go away. Like she was the missing piece of the puzzle to his life. He then pulled away and smiled warmly. "Have I mentioned your mother's cooking is amazing?" he said lightly and chuckled.

Tenshi let a smile slide onto her face as she felt Night wrap his arms around her, the warmth of his body wrapping around her like a protective cocoon, she could get used to that actually. When he pulled away she almost whimpered at the loss of warmth and then pulled a face, "Of course it is, or Salem and Lyna would have stopped eating it a while ago." She replied and then got up to put her plate in the sink. She turned and leaned against the counter, waiting for Night to finish so they could go back upstairs to finish their neglected projects.

"You, my dear, are very talentted at beatting me." mat said as he helped Soot calm down, he took the ridding gear of the horses, brushed them down and put them in the carol. He smiled at Salem, grabbing her hand he lead her to his house, hopping that it helpped her like she was asking from him.

((sorry so short))

Night smiled and then stood up. He put his plate in the sink as well and smiled at her. "Well I guess actually working on our projects like we planned would be a smart idea." he said and put his hands in his pockets and slowly began walking up to her room. "What do you think we should work on? The story or the picture?" he asked casually even though his heart was totally spazing and his mind was freaking out about what had just happened.

((No prob ^^))

Salem didn't say anything when he said she was good at beating him, or when he led her to the house. She honestly didn't know what to say. She still felt oddly calm and she didn't know if it was a good thing or not. She had been living on the edge for so long that finally calming down like this seemed almost wrong, like this is what she could get in trouble for rather than everything else she did. They had to help his mom, maybe after that she would be able to ask him questions, well, if she had enough time that is. She wasn't really sure how late it was, she hadn't checked her phone since she left school which was a record for her.

((writers block again))

{Writer block sucks, especially when you have an assignment due T^T Has that ever happened to anyone here?}

Following Lyna, Zack wondered how it must feel like to not even be able to go shopping without being noticed, or possibly attacked, by a fan.
"Want some?" he asked her, shaking the box of grasshoppers that he had bought as if they where tasty treats instead of insects.

((have no clue))

((still nothing for mat sorry))

"Um...no." She said as she tried to hide the look of disgust on her face. Eatting bugs? That is so disgusting. She thought to her self as she dug into her bag, pulling out a container of silly string. She couldn't see how he was eatting that stuff, she took the lid off of it and testted it on a near by statue. A mall cop happen to be by and saw her string the statue.

HEY!!! STOP YOU ROTTEN KIDS!!! he yelled as he ran over to them to take them away to the mall cop room. Where they kept all of the bad kids until thier parents pick them up.

"Come on lets go." She said as she laughed, grabbing Zack's wrist she pulled him with her as she ran away from the man. When she figured that they had left him behind she let his wrist go and sat down on a bench. "Man that was fun." she said as she continued to laugh trying to catch her breath, tears streamming dow n her face. She hasn't done anything like that in a long time, she was glad that she stocked up on silly string and hair dye. She looked at Zack with a smile of amusement on her face.

"Which one do we have more time for?" Tenshi asked, quickly catching up to Night and just walking next to him as they entered her room. She immediately went back to sitting on the edge of her bed and pushed her bangs to the side as she bent over to grab the papers she had written on before.

Night shrugged and looked at her debating on where to sit. "Ive got alot of time on my hands. My foster parents won't be home till one or two in the morning." he said and looked at her. "Do you have something going on?" he asked wondering why she was worried about the time. He decided to sit on the floor again and pulled out his notebook with the awsome design of a rose with waved and desings around it.

"Come lets go."he said as he grabbed her hand and ran towards his house with her in tow. He opened the door to his ranch home. He let her hand go so she could look around the house as she wantted to, nothing much has changed in it since she left."What you need help with, mom?" Matt asked as he walked down the hallway to the kitchen that was placed at the back of the house. When he oppened the door, the smeel of Chicken, mashed potatoes, other verious vegtables came rolling out filling the house up with the smell.

"I need you to make cookies for desert while i take care of this chicken." She said as she pulled the chicken out the oven and started to bast it. She looked towards the door as Matthais walked around getting the things that she needed for homemade cookies. "Salem, You can come on in here and make cookies with Matthais or look around the house if you want. I am sure there are plenty of pictures of the two of you in the livving room." She said as she finished with the chicken and went back to the other pots of vegtables on the stove.

"Pictures?" Salem questioned quietly to herself as she wandered further into the living room. This woman, Matt's mother, seemed to know her. That is partially what was bothering her so much and making her wonder what was going on and what she had forgotten. There was a photo album sitting on the table and picture frames littering the walls and mantle. She looked at those first.

Many of them were family photos, then there were other that had her in them. She had gone on a picnic with them one day, or at least that was what the picture was of. The one beside it was of her and a small boy soaking wet. She laughed a little seeing the two children glaring at each other in front of a lake. Once she had cleared through the frames, Salem made her way back to the middle of the living room.

She sat down on the floor in front of the coffee table, she pulled the album off of the table and onto her lap. Flipping through the pages, she looked at picture after picture. Pictures that had stories that she no longer knew.

"I see that you found the photo album." Mrs. Weyth said as she walked in, cleaning her hands on the apron she was wearing. She sat down on the couch that was near the coffee table. She looked at one of the pictures that Salem was looking at. "Oh that was when you frist saw Star Fire at the animal shelther." She said with a smile on her face, she liked the fact that Salem was back, it means that her son wasn't depressed anymore.

"Hey, what type of cookies do you like now?" Mat asked as he walked into the living room, he saw her looking through the album and his mom looking right along with her. He leaned against the door frame and watched them. It had been eight years since he had seen this scene before him. He smiled and thought about a future he had dreamed about for the last eight years since she had left.

"Just in case." Tenshi replied, fiddling with the pencil she held, tossing it into the air and then catching it and repeating the process. Her hands could never be idle for long, they got restless. "Well since we've got time..." She glanced out the window, the sun had moved considerably across the sky now, "You want to go for a walk? I don't feel much like staying home for the whole day."

Salem traced her finger over the picture of Star Fire. She was beautiful. Seeing her in the picture sent a wave of realization through her mind. Star Fire was the ghost-like horse that had been running through her dreams. The one that lead her to the pond and the boy, every time. She didn't say anything, she just listened, she had nothing to say. That was, until Matt asked a question from the doorway.

Looking back Salem smiled and said, "Snickerdoodles!" She then thought about it and looked down rather depressed. "There's only one problem with that though."

Night smiled looking up at her and nodded. "Ill bring my notebook and we can visit the tree house." he said and stood. He ran a hand threw his black hair and revealed his bright green eyes before hiding them again beneath the shade of his hair. He stretched and groaned. "Last night's homework was brutal..." he said and smiled at her. "You had good timing coming today." he said and then cracked his neck. He smiled closing his eyes. Man that felt better.

"What is the problem?" He asked, standing up straighter, concerned for her. He glanced at his mother as she stood up and walked back into the kitchen. He walked over to her and sat down next to her. He looked at a picture in the photo album and smiled. He remember that day. It was the fourth of july and they were being stupid and setting fireworks off in the middle of the road. He had a fireball shapped scar on his thumb from when he burnned himslef that day. He chuckled to him self as he remembered it, he still had some of the fireworks stashed in his locker at school.

Salem's eyes furrowed as she watched Matt's reaction at the pictures that the book was open to. "Not with the book," she said as she shut it. Setting it on the table, she sat down next to Matt and said, "There is a problem with me liking snickerdoodles and you cooking." Her tone sounded almost serious as she dropped her head and placed a hand on her knee. "That problem would be that I make the best snickerdoodles ever!" She looked back at Matt, a challenging smile on her face.

This felt almost natural to her now, it felt right. She was afraid of what Lyna and Tenshi were going to say about this. She didn't like the new old her. She liked being able to relax and have fun and to not have such a clouded memory and crazy dreams she didn't understand. She could live without them thank you very much.
