The Rose Among The Thorns

Mori's POV

And then I saw her...

Under the tree lies her peaceful form, back leaned firmly against the bark of the tree while her legs were spread out in a 'V' shape (don't get the wrong idea...she was wearing pants =p). In her arms was a package which she held tightly as if her very existance depended on it. She was sound asleep...looking very much at peace.

At first sight one could tell that she was a foreigner. Her looks just screamed foreign, but oddly enough...there among the sea of western features was a small yet noticable dash of asian heritage.

A petite and womanly frame shaped her body. She has high cheekbones, luscious full lips, rosy cheeks (irony much? o.o) and long eye lashes. Her auburn locks were let down in rich volumes, framing her almost heart-shaped face. Her skin was a lovely shade of alabaster. A very timeless look. But somehow, after observing her...there was one question that lingered in my mind.

What's the colour of her eyes?

That question kept taunting me while I raked through my brain for the possible answers. Was it the colour of the azure and seemingly endless blue sky? A warm shade of chestnut brown? Sharp and alluring golden eyes like that of a cat's?Or was it the colour of a glistening green meadow on a sunny day?

The soft and breezy wind that blew on this fine day catapulted me back to reality. Suddenly, realisation dawned on me like a hard slap across the face.

Our faces were only mere inches apart. We were so close, to the point that I could even hear her slow and rhythmic breathing. A lock of her hair fell out of place and my hand automatically moved up to claim that lock, to return it back to place. Who knew that something so minor would tempt me so much?

As I was doing so, her eyes suddenly fluttered open...revealing the long awaited answer, the colour of her eyes that LITERALLY took my breath away and made her the rose among the thorns. Emerald. There was only one word that could be used to describe her...

Perfection...
