I look up and I take note of how his eyes really are the most beautiful shade of blue‚ how the tip of his nose curves back in and how unkempt and untidy his sandy hair is.

The land around me was rather flat‚ orange shrubbery dotted it‚ with certain structures on the plant that glowed blue‚ most no higher than my shin‚ trees were scarce‚ with strangely ordered branches twisting around a main trunk along with that same blue structure.
