Lucas wore some black jeans, heavy black boots, and a black knitted sweater. Cold didn't really bother him so the sweater was plenty, even at night. He made his way into the Church, once again awed at the massive doors and high vaulted ceiling. The same effect every time, a since of smallness and insignificance. He came here fairly often.
He stopped in the back and waited. It wasn't too crowded really. There were only a few people there. The little he heard in the way of conversation seemed drowned by the echo of the building's size- as if God House itself was whispering and speaking to him. He breathed in the warmer air mixed with the scents of candles and incense. The liturgy would begin soon and he hoped Aria would be there.
Just as the music had begun, he saw the door open...and there she was. He couldn't believe how amazing she looked. She wore a black long shawl over a knee length red dress cut in an Asian style, with the fold over across the chest to shoulder. He didn't know what it was called. The shall didn't look too thick and he hoped she hadn't been cold. Black long boots went up to her knees. Her hair was up in a bun, with what looked like chopsticks sticking out to hold it. And her face...she was already beautiful. But it seemed like there was more to her today, more smokiness to her eyes. The smile on her face was very pleasing to him.
It wasn't exactly Church wear and he wondered where she'd gotten it. He liked it, definitely. But it interested him that she wore it. She didn't seem the type to have pretty clothes. He wondered how to ask her about it- later, anyway.
He went to her. "Hi Aria. I'm glad you came. It's about to start."
He touched her back lightly and led her to an empty pew where they sat down to listen. As the priest started, he kept glancing at her from the side, wondering what she was thinking.
