His hands were surprisingly warm, she thought. "Will it be okay for the owner of that house that we had left so suddenly?" "Don't worry. They know how thankful I am to have let you stay the night." "If you say so," she mumbles. "Mind if I ask where we are going?" "Have you seen a fireflies’ party?" "A fireflies’ party?" she questions in wonder as her brows slightly knitted together.

Lilly asked worriedly. “No, you guys were playing with fireflies. For this reason, the gatherings are held every season when the most fireflies come out.

"Not as much as you are," he said walking right behind me. I stopped and turned around.

Fireflies. They were unusual this early in the day, typically appearing only after dusk had fully settled. On instinct, I followed their path, moving past thicker underbrush into a section of forest I didn't recognize. The trees here grew closer together, creating a canopy that filtered the late afternoon light into dappled patterns on the forest floor. More fireflies appeared, their gentle glow forming a winding trail that led me forward.

I was going to pick the swimming hole where we met the first time, but Xander goes there too often, and he’d noticed. This field of wildflowers is the next best option, the moon and stars illuminating the petals in a luminescent glow. Fireflies flash like flying strobe lights and crickets serenade us in the background. Solar lights line a pathway to a canvas tent. Inside sits a bed, with fuzzy blankets and pillows.

Behind me I heard Nate chuckle. "Wow, you suck at this." He said. I ignored him as I continued to catch some fireflies. I felt myself smiling as I did. You can't blame me. It was rare to see fireflies at home. I could only see a few of them at night and they were only about five or four fireflies. This was something new. I have never seen this many fireflies before.
