Late at Night 1

Bloom couldn't sleep. Try as she may, she couldn't. She gave up. She just couldn't fall asleep. She sat up in bed and glanced at her clock. It read 12:05am in big red numbers. She groaned. Oh...why can't I fall asleep! She tried one last time but she failed. She sighed, got up, and went straight to her closet. I'll go for a walk in the woods. Maybe that'll tire me.
She choose some dark blue denim shorts, and a white tee. She slipped them on and put on some white flip-flop sandals. She moved slowly, careful not to wake her roommate, Flora.
She went out, into the woods.
After wandering for a while she sat on an old tree stump. She looked up at the start-filled sky. She monetarily closed her eyes, relaxing.
She heard a twig snap and her eyes snapped open.
Rustling of bushes.
She looked to her left and saw nothing, but she still could hear the rustling of bushes and the snapping of twigs. She jumped off the tree stump and went into her winx form. She readied a fireball and aimed it at where the sounds were coming from.
They were getting louder. It's coming closer.
Then she saw him.
Sky.
"Bloom!" he yelled, seeing the fireball.
"Sky!" she said, surprised it was him. She let the fireball go back into her and she quickly changed back.
"Sky, what are you doing here?" Bloom asked him.
"Hey, I could ask you the same thing." He said back.
"I asked you first." She sat down on the tree stump again, Sky sitting next to her.
"It was my turn to check the woods."
"Check the woods?"
"Yeah, every morning, Saladin picks a student to go into the woods, just to check if everything is safe. What about you?"
"Couldn't sleep."
After that they fell into an awkward silence.
Sky broke the silence by saying, "Y'know, they say that if you are alone under a full moon, you could meet the one you love."
"Oh?" Bloom giggled.
Sky smiled along with her.
They sat together after that. Close to each other and gazing at the full moon. Bloom leaned her head against his shoulder and Sky slightly leaded his head against hers.
They completely lost track of time when two hours had already past.
Sky suddenly became aware of how long they have been like this. He lifted his head off hers and stood, causing Bloom to lift her head.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
"Bloom, what time is it?" he asked.
Bloom gasped in realization of how long it has been.
"Oh, we should get back." Bloom half whispered, getting up.
Sky nodded and started his way back to Red Fountain. Then he stopped. He turned her way.
Oh and Bloom?"
"Yes?".
"One more thing."
He came forward, face-to-face, curled a finger under her chin, lifted her face, and kissed her.
At first Bloom was shocked. But then she closed her eyes, enjoying the moment.
After just a few seconds, (although it felt like centuries.) Sky broke the kiss.
He whispered in her ear.
"I love you."
Before disappearing into the trees, heading to Red Fountain.
Bloom stood there, still a little shocked. Then a smiled came on her face as she too, left for Alfea
