He laid back gently taking her with him so that he could stare up at the sky as she sleeped. Spectral kept his scythe close so that if anything did happen than he could be ready to protect Sasha. He slowly started to drift into sleep keeping one arm wrapped around the girl and the other on his scythe so that, if needed, he could just grab it up and not have to worry about first blows. "Okay I'll make sure to get some rest, sweet dreams," he told her gently before she slipped off inot sleep.
Sleep came to him soon as well and he was drifting in his own little world that was, no surprisingly, filled with Sasha. The term where have you been all my life came to mind when he thought about her. He had never known true happiness until he had met her and this was the warmest his body had felt in a long, long time. |

A bright light broke through the fog of sleep, dispelling the dream world away. Sasha slowly opened her eyes to the dim yet bright light of the morning sun rising. The first thing that she saw, however, wasn't the sun or the sky, but Spectral laying beside her. A small smile spread across her face and she moved closer, burying herself as close as she could to his warmth. A soft tune came from her throat as she quietly began to hum the tune of a rather nice and simple song, singing the lyrics in her mind. In you and I, there's a new land. Angels in flight; my sanctuary, my sanctuary, yeah. Where fears and lies melt away, music will tie what's left of me.. what's left of me now. I watch you fast asleep, all I fear means nothing.

What awoke Spectral was neither the sun nor the feel of the water lapping at his feet but more of the soft humming of the woman beside him. He slowly opened his eyes to look down at her cuddled into his body. It wasn't painful like he thought it might be, no, it was so comfortable and warm that he felt like he was drowning in it. He felt such a wonderful feeling when he was with her that he couldn't help but kiss her head lightly.
"Good morning, Sasha, I hope you slept well?" he asked her before stretching out his arms making sure not to move or knock her from her current position. He was quite enjoying the fact that it was he to be the one she cuddled with and not someone else. It was a good feeling it really was. |

Sasha looked at him, a bright smile on her face. "Of course I did. I'm sure I'll be running around like a five year old any minute now, like I normally do," she said, propping herself on her elbows, her legs bending and hooking at the ankles. She raised a brow in thought, a mischivious smirk appearing on her face. Abruptly, she reached over with both hands, taking only a few spare seconds to tickle him before rolling away a little and getting her feet under her so she could leap away. Sasah was defintely a morning person and wondered if Spectral was the same way. If not, then he was in for a nice surprise every morning to wake him up and get him alert and ready for the remainder of the day.

He laughed at her knowing what it was like to have to be around a five year old. Though, that person was a man and his brother, you didn't even have to say his name and everyone knew who it was. Deviant. Of course the little trouble maker always getting into things that he wasn't supposed to and not to mention stealing from his brothers. Spectral could always catch him but Jovial was a little slower than the older brother. It would cause chaos.
He laughed madly as she tickled him and jumped up to chase after her. Spectral grabbed her by the waist pulling her to his body from behind smiling down at her. "What about you? Are you ticklish as well, Sasha?" he asked her before tickling her sides with his strong hands though not hard enough to cause pain. |

Sasha was laughing before he had laid a hand on her and him tickling her just made it worse. Her legs instantly grew weak and she ended up pushing back against him instead of trying to break away. Her hands were on his, but she just didn't have enough spare strength in her to fight him off in the middle of her laughter. "All right! All right! You win!!" she managed to say, about ready to just collapse in his arms if he continued with his tickling masquerade.

He stopped tickling her after she just about collapsed laughing with her as he stood there holding her tightly against himself. Spectral had never heard himself laugh like but it was a very nice change from the ordinary and he liked being a bit different than what he usually was, especially around her. "Of course I win! Didn't you know that women are ten times more ticklish than most men?" he laughed kissing her temple lightly before taking a step back.
Looking at her like this made him see just how beautiful she was and it wasn't an odd thing to see her as such. He waited until she would turn around so that he could look at her from the front. Spectral would never tire of her beauty; what man would? They would have to be insane to deny something that innocently gorgeous! |

Sasha huffed lightly and turned around, her hands on her hips and a scowl on her face that was supposed to be serious. Well, she couldn't be all that serious, so she just ended up laughing and stepped toward him, veering off to the left to make a circle around him. "Hmmm... What to do today..." she mused, hands behind her back. "Breakfast is always a priority. Don't want to be lazy, weak and tired all day." When she finally made it to his left side, she latched on to his arm and lightly tugged. "Come on. Get your Scythe of Doom and let's go get something to eat."

He laughed at her watching over his shoulder as she walked around him. From being around her so long he expected her to glomp him or something but he only grabbed his arm talking about food. He wasn't all that--his stomach just growled and he stopped that thought. "Okay, okay! I understand now let me pick up Doomy here and we'll get going to eat!" he laughed picking up Doomy to swing it over his back the blade away from her.
He started for the town with her still latched onto his arm as they walked. It didn't bother him that people knew him here and were staring because he had never been with a woman before. Then of course people started to whisper and that didn't get on his nerves either as they walked towards some place to get some food. |

She barely noticed how many stares they were getting, nor did she really hear the whispers or such. She was focused on one thing, or actually two, but she just wanted food right now. Sasha had completey skipped over dinner the night before due to the Moonflow being only a little ways away, and then she met Spectral. Sasha looked around slightly as she began to sing under her breath the same song she had sang in her mind. But it was only a few seconds later when she cut off and ran ahead slightly, eyeing the shoopuff. The only other time she had rode on one of these things was when she a bit younger. It had been her first trip here and it was exciting, but she had been sick then. "Oh, I love these things! They're so adorable in their own little way," she said. Sasha felt like a kid all over again, but she felt as if she could feel that way no matter the circumstances as long as Spectral was with her.

He loved how she was so innocent and walked over to the animal. He had never been very good with creatures so he wasn't all that calm about being around it but he didn't let that show. "You know you're cute when you get all excited like that?" he asked her laying a hand on her head as he walked up behind her. The creature stood right in front of them. He watched her and kissed her cheek lightly before asking, "Do you want to ride it?" He could swallow his fear of animals for this one time just for her.
(Eh! Short!!!! >.<) |

Her face flushed a light pink at both his comment and kiss. "Of course! I've only been on it once before and it wasn't all that good 'cause I wasn't feeling too good that day," she said, taking his free hand in both of hers and heading toward the lift. Once on it, she kept looking up as the anticipation grew. Fitting her body back against Spectral's snugly, she told herself to calm down before she ended up going to the edge and probably giving the poor man a heart attack. "This is gonna be so fun. When you're up there, it's like you can see everything and almost like your flying, but with a basket thing around you."
[No problem. X3 Mine are pretty bad most of the time, so don't worry about it. ;3)

He just smiled at her and went with her to the thing that he had never seen before. It was just a beast to him and he hugged onto the girl as if afraid they were going to fall at any second. He had never been one for heights since his childhood had been filled with Jovial getting tricked by Deviant and getting stuck in trees. For some reason that had affected the older brother in ways that no one understood but they did.
"I hope you're right because I'm no bird," he laughed nuzzling her neck lightly as the thing moved. He was freaking out on the inside but he was as calm and cool as ever on the outside. No showing emotion, right? Well not in this situation anyways! |

That ticklish yet warm feeling raced through her when he had nuzzled her neck and she smiled warmly up at him. "Oh, you don't have anything to worry about. Nothing really happens to Shoopuff rides. Only a couple years ago because the Al Bhed were kidnapping or saving the summoners," she said. She had only heard portions of it and wasn't exactliy sure which it was, but it was done and past now. When the lift had stopped, Sasha stepped onto the wooden carriage on the Shoopuff's back and immediately went to the very end, looking out over the edge that hovered just above the driver's seat and the Shoopuff's head. The water seemed to sparkle under the morning sun and it made her love the morning all the more.

He kept his eyes on her face as he laid his head on her shoulder keeping his arms wrapped around her tightly. Spectral smiled lightly kiss her neck trying to distract herself from all of the fear in her heart. This was doing it pretty well as he nipped at her neck lightly feeling his heart swell with pride that it was him. "I won't worry as long as you're here," he whispered to her not really worried about the height anymore. He was just occupied with her and how gorgeous she was. |
