Star was waiting for him again! Every time he entered the Cafe, he was greeted with a smile, and it made his heart soar!
Dusty found himself being pulled through to the Kitchen, then pulled into Star's arms!
They hugged. Star nuzzled Dusty's neck. Dusty swatted him away! - Not here!
Oh alright! - Star reluctantly pulled himself away, putting the bench between them.
Are you still OK, for the Movies tonight? - Star had his finger's crossed.
I think so!
Star had to give him credit, they had been on dates, every second night for just over a week! Each time, Dusty had seemed to find it a bit easier! Different places, different experiences, different people! His world was slowly widening.
The nights in between, Star spent in the sea. More often than not, Dusty would be waiting for him on the sand when he returned. They would have a chat, a cuddle and kiss, before heading back to their separate homes.
Star had been using great restraint, he hadn't visited Dusty's bed again. He wondered how long that would last. Who would force it first, Himself or Dusty?
Dusty's life was happier, the sights he had seen, the places he had been! The stars in the night sky, shone brighter, were now more beautiful. But the 'Star' in his Heart shone the brightest of all!
Dusty's Aura was more illuminated too! Star could see the change, without Dusty having to utter a word. Everyday at the Cafe! The glare coming off Dusty's Aura, blinded him! If he hadn't been wearing these glasses, he would have been knocked out!
Now Dusty was wearing more colour! Reds, Blues, Orange and Yellow! Colors that reflected his happiness!
Luna watched her brother's happiness grow. She was pleased for him and for Dusty. She had offered him advice and was proud of herself. Now if she could only figure out her own feelings. She couldn't help feeling a bit jealous.
She had felt the pull towards Millie. Felt her heart start to open. But she just wasn't comfortable. She just couldn't help feeling, that Millie was hiding something from her. She wouldn't be able to fully commit to starting a relationship unless she knew it all.
Would Millie be willing to open up to her!
Do you want to talk about it? - Star was worried, As they day had gone on Luna had seemed more and more unhappy!
Luna had taken one look at Star's concern and crumpled. She sobbed as Star held her.
Is it Millie?
Luna nodded, as she swiped at her tears, using serviettes that Star had grabbed from the nearest table.
Tell me, maybe I can help! - Star pulled her to a table, sitting her down.
I visited her dream last night!
Really? Why?
Luna explained, - She is hiding something from me! I know she has always, been a quite, shy type of girl, but I have always felt that there is something else hidden behind her eyes. Some sort of fear! Something from her past, that is stopping her from fully living her life.
I wanted to have a look, see if I could find any clues!
And did you?
All I found were more questions! - Luna looked perplexed.
Can you tell me, what you saw?
I saw her as a little girl! Maybe around 3 or 4. With two adults, I presume to be her parents. They were at a park, they were playing hide and seek with her! It started off full of light and happiness. But then it turned dark. Night time. She was frightened! They were calling for her desperate!
But they weren't calling for Millie! They called her another name!
What name?
I think her name was Rose!
What does that mean?
I don't know! - Luna shrugged.
I think you should talk to her!
How would I bring that up? And what if she refuses to talk?
What if she is wanting, to talk to someone about it? I think you should try! She is closest to you! If anyone can help her it is probably you!
Maybe!
You are always saying that Fate throws us in the path of another, for a reason! Maybe this is the reason!
That's true!
Look,
I am out for a date with Dusty tonight! Invite her for a sleepover, or
something! You girls like that stuff! Let's close the Cafe tomorrow!
Have a day off!
What about you?
I can sleep in the van, or maybe I will get lucky!
Star! - She hit him!
He laughed at her expression, and raised his hands! - I have been so good! Honest!
She picked up one of her cushions, and chased him around the Cafe!
A few cushions flew across the Cafe, laughter rang out! Until a vase was knocked to the floor!
You know, I think I like your cushions now! - Star sputtered!
Her next throw, hit it's mark, her brother's big, fat, head!
