It's rare I get to just lie down and watch the stars. It's rare for me to get a break from everything and everyone. The breeze gently blows against my skin sending a trail of goosebumps to appear on my skin. The sounds of owls, crickets, predators and possible prey creates a soothing melody.

I recognize the ragging sound of a river nearby.slowly I close my eyes letting the sounds whisk me away to a place beyond my imagination. If a predator were to arrive at this moment, chances of me scaling up a tree before I get attacked are not in my favor.

"Are you seriously trying to talk homework with me?" He shrugs and smiles slightly. "At least I got your attention." I smile. He always had a way to cheer me up.
