Snow began to fall again, slowly at first but then faster and thicker. "Yeah... it is. I used to meditate here. I think I'm the only living person on the planet who knows about this spot." he said with a smile, as he moved over to sit under the snow shade of an evergreen. "Oh!" he said in surprise, and pointed over to a point on his right, conspicuously. A pair of black eyes poked out of the snow only 15 feet away. If you looked carefully enough you would see the outline of the white rabbit against the white snow. It's ears perked up with his exclaimation of surprise.

Serenity glanced up and caught a snowflake as it fell. The snow only helped the scene be more perfect if that was even possible. It really could have been a scene right out of a movie. She almost replied to Mathew's comment about him being the only person who knew about this place with her own sarcastic comment about her not being dead yet but she had spotted the rabbit a moment before he did and smiled down at it.
"Well that makes three of us who know about it now." she teased quietly trying not to scare the animal out of it's home. Enough animals were now displaced and she didn't want to begin to contribute to that count.[/size]

Another few moments passed and the rabbit deemed they were not a threat and began hopping around happily in the snow, perhaps looking for food. "Yeah, well... its still pretty exclusive. For me and my friends." He said, trying to catch snowfakes on his tongue. He didn't care if he looked childish or not; he loved the snow. He sat down at the tree, ushering for her to sit by him. He then pulled the cup out of his pocket and began scooping some snow up in it.

Serenity giggled happily as she sat down next to him, "So I take it the snow tastes good." she teased him lightly and leaned against him slightly, the tree trunk was way to cold to lean against. She crossed her legs underneath her to mask her real intent. She was trying to make a snowball without him finding out.
That would have ruined the fun if he saw what she had been planning before she managed to pull it off. Not that she was particularly great in a snowball fight but she was able to predict what her opponents would do.[/size]

"You might want to save that snowball for later you know" He said, again wagging his finger at her, grinning from ear to ear. He had seen straight through her little trick. "Watch, and try not to look into the future" He pulled off his gloves and dumped the contents of the cup into his hand, which as soon as it came in contact with his hand became a solid brick of diamond. It was murky but as he ran a hand over the outside, it slowly but steadily became perfectly clear. All impurities were gone. Using his finger like a laser cutter, he began cutting into the diamond much like an artist cutting into a brick of marble.

Serenity's mouth dropped open. Ok so that was get hunted down by the FBI worthy. If he could do that so easily... "You know when you say don't look into the future that makes me want to look right?" she asked putting the snowball down for later. Definitely later.
She watched him methodically work his hands over the the diamond and it became clear. How he remembered exactly how to do that she didn't even want to think about but his skill showed when he made something that was obviously not that simple look like a piece of cake.[/size]

Mathew chuckled "Yeah, but that surprise of finding yourself atop a hill with such a veiw was nice, no? Life is much more fun with pleasant surprises." He said, melting some snow with his hands into the cup. He continued his work, the rough form of a heart only one and a half inches tall was soon carved out, though he left a small hollow spot in the center. Mathew meticulously smoothed out the heart to perfection. Using the same techniques he carved into the front the symbol he had seen on her forehead so many time before. He turned to conceal the surprise. He poured the water in the cup into the small hollow spot in the back, though the water had turned thick and a solid blue. Creating a back to cover up the hole, he placed a flake of a rust colored metal in the mix and quickly placed on the back. After fusing, it was like there was never a cut there. "Merry Christmas, Serenity" He said, holding out her new necklace. It glowed like there was a flame inside. "Its a continuous self sustained chemical reaction. Do you like it?"

Serenity watched as he the crystal into shape. His hands moved so surely it was like he could see what each cut would do to the diamond. "Yes that was amazing by the way." she replied softly he was right, life was often so much more then it was when she knew exactly what was coming.
She didn't say much not wanting to disturb him as he worked. It was so much just to watch him in his element. She rarely got to see him like this and wasn't about to stop him.
She felt herself laughing quietly as he hid the crystal heart from her view. She didn't look, scarily enough she wanted it to be a surprise herself. He was really starting to rub off on her and she wasn't adverse to the effect.
She felt herself gasp in surprise as he showed off his final creation. The heart was so beautiful with the flame inside it shining it's light through the facets of the jewel creating a pattern on the snow that continued to flow with the movement of the flame. "Mathew I love it." She took the jewel and placed it around her neck letting her thumb trace the symbol that appeared on her forehead whenever she searched the future. "Thank-you." she said giving him a kiss on the cheek. Now what to get him for christmas....[/size]

Mathew exhaled the breathe he had been holding in nervous anticipation of her critique on his work. He smiled, putting a hand up to his cheek whereshe had kissed him. It burned almost sweetly where she had kissed him and he felt his face turn bright red. "Come on, my pants are getting soaked." He stood up, and offered his hands out to help her up.

Serenity smiled at Mathew and let the jewel fall onto her chest once again and pulled herself up using his hand, "Well your the one who wanted to sit down remember." she joked although he had a point their pants were soaked.
She grinned as she saw the slight reflection of the flame inside her necklace on the glistening snow, "So where to now Romeo?" she asked jokingly her hand still in his.[/size]
