As Abi slowly opened her eyes, her mouth slowly hung open at the sight before her.

There were bright dancing lights in the sky laid out in front her, like a precious painting. It was the aurora borealis!!!

The beautiful hues painted the sky like rippling curtains of yellow and green and all colours in between, as if they were hiding something behind their magical presence. The combination of the colours was so bold and exquisite that she couldn't help but stare at them, not wanting to even blink in case it all suddenly just went away.

Wow! This was simply breathtaking! She had only ever seen photos of the northern lights and the real thing was incomparable to those images. Seeing this with her own eyes was something she never believed would happen.

She gaped in wonder, awestruck as Alex wrapped his arms around her waist from behind her.

”Do you like what you're seeing?” he asked and Abi struggled to speak.

”It's…” Beautiful was an understatement. She had no words to explain it. She was just mesmerized. ”Breathtaking, Alex,” she finally said, not tearing her eyes off the sky.

Alex lightly leaned his chin on top of her head. ”Well, wait for a bit longer,” he told her and after a couple of minutes, Abigail literally gasped.

She thought that what she saw a while ago was already the best thing she had even seen, but she was wrong. Completely wrong. That seemed to be just a free sample.

In the sky above them appeared giant, roiling waves in various shades of green. She felt like she was looking into a giant ocean with huge swirling waves of colour up in the sky.

She had always been a nature lover. She was impressed with the beauty that nature could offer but at this very moment, watching this stunning display from mother nature topped everything else she had ever seen. It was the most incredible thing, a once in a lifetime experience.

The whole sky turned into something almost like a disco dance floor.

She was utterly awestruck. The videos she watched before didn't even come close to showing what the experience, the beauty, was really like. And the most incredible thing was that she was watching this with the person she loved the most, standing in his loving embrace.
