She stood near the lake waiting for him. It was midnight, and Ryan was late. She wondered at this. He was never late for their meetings. And she wondered why he wanted to meet in the darkness. It had been a long time since they did it last. Maybe he wanted to be romantic. She grinned to herself. Yes, that had to be it. She could almost imagine his lips on hers.
She was startled to see his face right in front of hers. She took a step back and tripped. He caught her before she fell.
"You better be careful." He said, smiling.
"You surprised me. I didn't see you come up."
"You would if you weren't day-dreaming all the time." He looked around.
"Or in this case night-dreaming." He touched her face.
"I missed you, Pluto" He said.
"I missed you too." They kissed. Then he remembered something.
"I have a gift for you" He dug a necklace out of his pocket. It silver with dark emeralds decorating it. Her eyes lit up.
"It's beautiful." He put around her neck.
"Not as beautiful as you." He responded. They sat down under a tree and spent the rest of the night together.
