Bai Lei and I stand in the room with all the constellations, facing each other in silence. He slowly reaches up to the back of my neck and gently touches the skin with his fingertips. His dark red eyes search my own green eyes as he asks "Are you ready?" 

A smile slowly crawls across my face as I say "I'm ready when you are. But, why here?" This time he smiles as he says "I somehow felt it would be more appropriate here, among the stars." I slightly nod my head and say "Good thinking"

The star constellations spin around my feet, bouncing back and forth between Bai Lei and I but when Bai Lei unleashes his power, the stars begin to burn brighter. Warm energy washes over the back of my neck and slowly seeps down my spin like warm honey.

I slightly close my eyes and enjoy the feel before Bai Lei says "I'm going to begin... if it's too much, tell me and I'll stop." I open my eyes again and smile up at him as I say "It'll be fine, stop worrying so much."
