He smiled to her sudden flare of mischief, and followed her every move with his eyes. He took in as much as he could for the moment. "I must admit, I've never heard the tale of the other three leaves." he said as she handed him the clover, and closed his hand around it. Aaron followed her as she walked away from him again, leaving her all too kind and innocent words ringing in his ears. If she only knew.
"I'll say it one more time Emma. The pleasure is mine." he assured her as he fell in besides her. Where was she going to take him next? "What little piece of Heaven are you leading me towards now?" he looked to his side and his eyes first fell on her hair, beautifully flowing around her shoulders. She was illuminated by the moon and she looked radiant. How Aaron had the control to keep calm was a mystery to him.
They stepped back onto even ground and Aaron stuck his arm out yet again, a mere reflex. He was a gentleman and would behave as such all the time. Especially when in the company of the lovely Emmaline.
"I must admit the moonlight only increases the pleasant atmosphere of this evening," his eyes found hers. A sudden rebllious intent struck him. Aaron was never one for obeying orders and even taking them. He didn't really care for the Elder's and their Laws. But he knew that if he broke them, they would kill him. His sudden impulse commanded him to reveal his true nature to the girl in front of him, but it was only for a second. Aaron kept his control and did nothing but look her in the eyes. When she found out, she would be terrified. And he would be forced to kill her. Would he?
You have to. Don't be weak. he thought and furrowed his eyebrows for a moment, then relaxed.
