Silver spoons POV:

I sighed and sat down on the ground, bored. I saw candle meditating on the volcano as usual. I got up and (somehow) went up the volcano. She turned around to look at me, as if she knew I'd be there. But that was normal behavior for her. "Good afternoon, silver." She said with a soft smile. 

"Good afternoon to you as well, my dear." I smirked at her. She let out a small chuckle. 

Candle continued her meditation, and I watched her for a moment. There was something serene about the way she connected with the elements around her. I couldn't help but admire her peaceful demeanor.

"Ever thought about joining me in meditation, Silver?" she asked, her eyes still closed.

I chuckled nervously, "Me? Meditate? I'm not sure if I could sit still for more than five minutes."

Candle opened her eyes, looking at me with curiosity. "Sometimes the most restless minds benefit the most from quiet moments."

I raised an eyebrow, "What does that even mean?"

She grinned, "Well, you did climb a volcano just to see me. What does that say?"

I blushed slightly, "Maybe I was hoping your serenity would rub off on me."

Candle chuckled again, and we spent the next few moments in silence. It felt surprisingly comfortable, as if we had known each other for much, much longer.

Candle looked up at me. "Can you come closer?" She asked.

 "Uhm.. sure." I responded, taking a few steps until I was right next to her. "Why did you need me to-" Candle cut me off by putting a finger to my lips. 

"How about you try meditating for a change?" She asked in her usual kind tone.

 "Candle I really dont think I could meditate like you do.." I rubbed my neck nervously. "You have too much faith in me, my dear."

 Candle just shook her head, "I bet you can. You just dont have enough faith in yourself." 

She gestured for me to sit beside her. Reluctantly, I sat down, cross-legged. Candle smiled encouragingly.

"Close your eyes, Silver, and take a deep breath," she instructed gently.

I followed her lead, closing my eyes and inhaling deeply. The scent of the volcano surrounded me, and I tried to focus on the calming rhythm of my breath. Candle's presence beside me felt reassuring.

"Now, let your thoughts come and go like clouds passing by. Don't hold onto them; just let them drift away," she continued softly.

I attempted to clear my mind, but it was a challenge. Candle's words resonated with me, though, and I found myself slowly relaxing into the meditation. The warmth of the volcano beneath me and the soothing sound of the wind created a tranquil atmosphere.

After a while, Candle spoke again, "See? You're doing great. Meditation is about finding peace within yourself, even if it's just for a moment."

I opened my eyes, meeting Candle's gaze. There was a genuine warmth in her eyes that made me feel a way I hadn't before.

"Thank you, Candle," I said sincerely.

She smiled, "Anytime, Silver. Sometimes, all it takes is a moment of quiet reflection."
