Sleeping Under a Tree

[Amy Stone]

Amy smiled at Blane, "Its nice being surrounded by friends isn't it?" she said.

 

[Blane Bailey]

"Its is but it still doesn't mean I don't feel alone every now and then." Blane said.

 

[Amy Stone]

"No I agree with you, its just nice i guess, change of scene and all" she said smiling.

 

[Blane Bailey]

"Yeah I guess. Its definitely different. Do you like being alone, sometimes?" Blane asked

 

[Amy Stone]

"Yeah i do actually, to sit on my own and just think things over" she said "how about you then?" she asked.

 

[Blane Bailey]

"I do like to think things over too. I need my alone time sometimes." Blane said

 

[Amy Stone]

"Yeah I guess we all do now and again" Amy said smiling.

 

[Blane Bailey]

Blane smiled. "I don't know if I ever asked but do you have any brothers or sisters?"Blane asked

 

[Amy Stone]

"Nope I'm an only child! What about you?" Amy asked.

 

[Blane Bailey]

"Yeah I'm the same. I guess I like being alone because I more or less grew up alone." Blane said smiling "Its a nice evening, don't you think?"

 

[Amy Stone]

"Yeah its lovely" Amys aid glancing up at the evening sky.

 

[Blane Bailey]

"Do you do Astronomy?" Blane asked.

 

[Amy Stone]

"Nope thats next term. Am i to take it that you do?" she asked smiling.

 

[Blane Bailey]

"Yeah I do." Blane said looking up at the sky "Do you like learn about the stars?"

 

[Amy Stone]

"Never learnt about them before, so i'm completely open minded about it all" she admitted staring up at the sky above her.

 

[Blane Bailey]

"I don't know much but I know how to find the north star." Blane said

 

[Amy Stone]

"How do you find it then?" she asked curiously.

 

[Blane Bailey]

"Well, if you look up, over there" Blane said pointing to the left part of the sky. "Can you see something that looks like a pan?"

 

[Amy Stone]

Amy looked up in the sky to where Blane was pointing.
"Yeah i see it!" she said still looking at it.

 

[Blane Bailey]

"Well, if you look at the last star thats the edge of the pan and draw a start line to the next star." Blane said pointing to the one he meant and then moving his finger to the north star. "Can you see it?"

 

[Amy Stone]

Amy kept up as Blane pointed out the star
"Oh yeah i see it!!" Amy said excitedly.

 

[Blane Bailey]

"Well that is your north star. It is suppose to help you find your way when are lost as it points to north." Blane said "Its not the brightest star in the sky which is why many believe that it is not and the pan shape is called the big Dipper but I call it the Sky Pan." Blane said laughing.

((I gotta go, see you later))

 

[Amy Stone]

"Oh wow that is soo cool!" Amy said gazing up at the sky.

 

[Blane Bailey]

"Its amazing what you can learn from books and a clear night sky in scotland sitting on your roof." Blane said smiling.

 

[Amy Stone]

Amy smiled, "Do you miss being at home?" she asked.
