"Whatever you say..." Draven replied, upturning his palms toward the sky.

I sigh a bit, knowing that he believed my half lie. I was kidding, but my mind kept going astray.

"You know, if you did like me..." Draven trailed off, figuring she probably wanted to smack him for going back to the subject, "All you'd have to do was say so."

I simply glare at him. "I can't like a student. That's wrong." I say to him. "Although I have a little thing for you." I say looking away quickly after I said. I mentally kick myself. He's with Kyra you twit! Stupid, stupid stupid!

Draven nodded his head and that was it. He wasn't one of those guys who dwelled on it if he knew someone wouldn't like it, "That's all I wanted to know." Drave replied simply, nodding his head. Honestly, if she didn't already know, he had a slight thing for her too.

I glance at him slightly, not knowing what to say. "H-how about you Draven?" I ask sorta not wanting to know his answer, but curious anyways.

Now Draven knew how Shelby felt at the moment. A little uncomfortable and put on the spot, "S-same..." He stuttered out slowly, biting his lip a little.

"Well now this is awkward..." I say with a nervous laugh, avoiding his eyes now.

"Yeahhh, just a little..." He agreed with a chuckle, not really knowing where to look at the moment. Drave stared down at his hands, avoiding eye contact with her at the moment. Strike that, it was beyond awkward.

"Ummmm.... maybe I should go?" I ask him, just staring at the sky as I notice a star rushing overhead.

"Whoa!" Drave cried out, sitting up as a flash of light began to fill the sky. A shooting star, it was, "Look at that, Shells!" He pointed upward, not bothering to regard her last statement.

I smile to myself as I close my eyes, making a wish as I always did when a shooting star went by.

Draven stared up at the sky, watching the flash dart toward the left, "Sweet..." He commented with a slight chuckle.

I had to laugh. "It's beautiful. This is why I love teaching Astronomy." I say with a smile to him, but quickly look back at the starlit sky.

Drave nodded his head, "You must see a lot of stuff like this then?" He suggested, turning toward her but looking away as he noticed her eyes were still stuck up at the sky. "This is the first shooting star I've ever seen..." Draven added.

I nod my head, tearing my blue eyes from the sky to look at him. "Yes, I see comets, quasars, and nebulas all the time." I say with a smile.

"Whatever those are." He grinned at her, locking eyes with her for a moment. Drave chuckled lightly, recalling that one day they were talking about comets in his astronomy class.

I laugh a bit. "A nebula is an interstellar cloud of dust, hydrogen gas and plasma. It's also the first stage of a star's cycle. The quasar is an extremely bright and distant active galactic nucleus." I say with a shrug. "Just the basics of astronomy."

"Geez, I remember so little about astronomy." He laughed guiltily."All I really remember is that the white stars are the hottest stars... I think."

"I believe your correct." I say with a giggle. "But if that's the only thing you know of astronomy you're not passing my class."

"Err..." He thought for a moment, "Aren't they called dwarf stars?" Draven suggest, a sheepish grin upon his face.

"Once again you're right. You may pass after all." I say with a laugh.

"Heyy! See, I am smarter than you though." He laughed lightly and brushed the hair out of his eyes.

"But I already knew all that." I say with a wink. I laugh and I feel my face getting a bit warm knowing that meant it was turning pink. Not wanting him to see this, I glance back at the sky hoping he didn't catch it.

"Well of course, other wise you wouldn't be the astronomy teacher." He laughed, noticing her cheeks turn a slight shade of pink. Drave chuckled lightly, eyes back up at the sky like he didn't notice anything, "So... What did you wish for?" He asked out of curiosity.

"If I tell you then it won't come true." I say in a bubbly tone that would normally come from a five year old.

Draven rolled his eyes subtly, "And how old are you?" He asked, turning to her with an eyebrow raised. Drave chuckled under his breath; that was the automatic answer when asked about any kind of wish.

"I'll be 22 in march." I say with a smile back at him, my cheeks still pink. "I never tell my wishes. I'm not telling you this one especially."

"Aww come on!" He pleaded with her, "That just makes me wanna know it more!" Draven pouted his lip at her, a gesture he hadn't used since he was a youngin', "Pleasee?"

I sigh. "It involves you and me. Not together." I say avoiding his eyes again, seeing if he understood.
