Arain slowly strolled through the foliage and shadow of the trees. Heading, towards 'her' spot, a huge boulder that rested in a clearing, where the sun always shone when it was day of course. She slowly made her way there, and as she saw the sun-kissed grass, she smiled widely. This was her place, where she could relax and get away from the violence.
A few minutes passed before she sat down on the boulder, and started to sing. Her voice clear and melodic. Also, beautiful. The sun glinting in her deep hazel eyes.

A boy in his early teens sat in the low branches of a tree, his back against the trunk. One of his legs draped along a branch and the other swayed gently off the side. A soft sigh escaped him as he glanced down to the ground, which seemed much farther away than it really was. Did heights scare him, though? Of course not. He stood up and began to climb higher into the tree, not loosing his grip on the branches or his footing in the bark a single time. When he got to a spot he liked, he pulled himself up onto the branch.
He almost fell right out of the tree as song rang out in the forest. Green eyes wide with curiosity, he peered around on the forest floor below, catching sight of a girl. He leaned forward a bit, studying her carefully. She looked to be in that time between adolescence and adulthood, and she had a beautiful voice. Closing his eyes, the boy listened to the song, momentarily landing himself in a world free of worry or care...
OoC|| Honestly... Can you believe how cheesy I am? -_-;;

Arain, gradually stopped as she heard a rustle in the bushes, not knowing that it was only a tiny squirrel. She jumped, only slightly, not afraid of anything at the moment. Even with the turmoil and evil lurking everywhere in the village, she still wasn't afraid, usually just startled. She slowly looked over her shoulder, her blonde curls going over her shoulders. "Why... Hello there," She said, smiling, talking to the squirrel. Always, the person to talk to animals, even though she knew that they couldn't understand her.
OoC;// I honestly don't think anyone's cheesy.

Hearing the singing come to an end, the boy opened his eyes and watched curiously as the girl below began... talking to a squirrel?
Rolling his eyes gently, he murmured, 'Girls..' sarcastically under his breath and began his descent out of the tree. He leapt from the lowest branch to the ground, landing perfectly on his feet. He cleared his throat a bit, so as not to startle Arain, then raised an eyebrow.
"Do you know that squirrel? Or are you just... talking to it for the heck of it?"
Not even he could tell if his tones were insulting or joking.

Arain, jumped and bit her lip, trying to hold back a scream. It worked, to her relief. "Actually, I do. His name is Lil' Joey.." She replied, sarcastically, and glanced around to see where 'Joey' went too, she heaved a sigh as she noticed that he had managed to scuttle away. She turned around to face Seth, and she slightly shook her head, "How long were you there?" She asked, hoping that he didn't hear her sing.

"Oh, I've been sitting in that tree," he said, pointing to the tree he'd climbed out of, "all morning. So you could say I've been here longer than you have. You have a really nice singing voice," he added with a slight grin.

Arain, slightly smiled, and she sat back down on the large boulder that she was at a few minutes ago. She glanced down, still smiling, "Thanks... I wouldn't have sang if I knew that someone was around..." She said, blushing a faint shade of red, from embarassment.

OoC|| *falls to knees* THANK GOD! Someone else knows that the phrase goes 'wouldn't have,' not 'wouldn't of'! I LOVE YOU! *whacked by random llama*
BiC|| "Then you don't like to let other people know what a beautiful singer you are?" he questioned, tilting his head a bit. He stood there in silence, hoping she knew that wasn't a question that was meant to be answered.
"My name's Seth," he finally said. "What's yours?"
OoC|| Must go now. x-o

Arain paused for a moment, and looked down at the bright grass near her bare feet. She smiled and shrugged, she could tell that his question wasn't really a question, but she took it as a compliment. Slowly, her gaze went back over to him, "Thanks. And, I'm Arain. Pleasure," She replied, polietly.

"Likewise," Seth grinned, streching his legs a bit. "So, what brings you so deep into the forest, Arain?"
OoC|| Sorry for the short post... Like I said, I'm braindead. x-o

Arain faintly smiled, as she thought about all of the reasons that she came to her spot. "Well, I guess to get away from the troubles here..." She started to explain, but her voice quickly trailed off. "What were you doing all the way over here?" She asked, practically repeating his own question, but she was quite curious.

"I just like being alone," Seth shrugged, tapping the dirt with the front end of his shoe. "And this place is pretty deserted... It surprises me, actually. The first time I saw this place I knew it was beautiful, but you're one of the first people I've seen around here. Maybe everyone else stays a little closer to the edge of the forest."
OoC|| And that's when the Writer's Block kicked in. ^_^;;
