In one smooth motion, I vanish. Racing across building tops, silver scarf clearly visible, now flies behind me. Stars painting the city sky behind me once again. ...as if my scarf was erasing all the clouds. Every drop being collected, making my scarf shine more and more. I look down and smile from a corner building. Taking a second look behind me just to be sure. ...and there he is. ...That same kid that, for what ever reason, had invaded my dreams again. "...is this the same guy?" He glanced up to catch my eye for a split second more before I'm gone. Grinning and racing for the horizon. "It's him." "Good night Erin." I say to the memory of those fleeting electric blue eyes that seem to linger so long in my mind. Watching her shadow race forward, trailing a clean night sky. Shining with such a beauty, you didn't know existed in such a tough city as this. "...haha. I wonder...if he knows..."

I get yanked from the memory playing itself over and again in my mind when the dark boy runs down the alley. "Damn" I was hoping to catch the girl from tempo, the girl with the un-naturally electric blue eyes. But, glancing around, I see her leaning with her back to the wall of a dark alley-way. Why she went there, I may never know. Walking up to her, I fiddle with the pick in my hand. "What did you want?" "...I want quiet noise and sugar that's bitter. I want air to be as strong as touch to a cheek. I want brilliance to be seen in a white room by people other than me. I want people to understand that there is no rule or set lines in stone but more than what they will simply allow themselves to see. ...but the real question here young sir is what do YOU want?" "I want some ginger beer. hahaha but honestly, I don't know...quite what I want. I suppose you could say I want answers. ...you wouldn't understand..." "Little did you know. ...and less did you know to begin with." "Come again? I don't know what you're talking about." "haha! but you do A.J.! *sigh* So little thought you invest before you speak. ...the greatest power...is having the control to keep things concealed when you most need it kept secret." "Haha yeah...um...Hey. I have to go but great talking to ya. ...um...what's your name?" "...Erin."

Curious thoughts appear clearly across my face. Obvious enough, even I notice. Taking another sip of coffee, and removing the straw for the last taste of caramel, I collect my things and walk to the door, with a grin teasing my lips. She stands in the rain, outside of a corner building, putting on her silver scarf that's barley visible under a black trench coat, pulled loosely around the girl. She was obviously used to the un-naturally cool weather, though I don't know how anyone could get used to this...like the weather...there was a certain..."air" about her that seemed so... un-natural..

A little night club on the back street of Chicago is still sending sweet vibes of jazz at 12:48 am. A girl takes a seat in a dark corner, stage left. Perfect spot in the space to only be seen as a silhouette, but granted just enough light as for the young man on stage to not go without noticing staticy, electric blue eyes. The girl watched the young man sing, from under the brim of her hat, sipping coffee through as straw. The dark young man finishes his last song Purple Haze and shakes hands with the house band. He goes over to the bar to order a drink and, feeling eyes on him, turns to see the girl's electric blue eyes looking right at him.
