    ... been completely spellbound by the Valley and had taken hundreds of pictures for my dad. I'd also been spellbound by Ajei's company. She was not only gorgeous but incredibly easy to talk to, and I'd enjoyed chatting pretty much constantly with her throughout the afternoon. We'd laughed, joked and told stories about our completely different lives in America and England. All day I'd been expecting us to catch up with her dad and the larger tour group. Secretly I hoped we never did. I selfishly didn't want to share Ajei with anyone else that night. Even if nothing happened between us, I couldn't imagine a more perfect end to the day than to share a campfire with Ajei while we talked and giggled together late into the night. As the sun finally kissed the horizon and darkness started to fall my wish came true. "We'll stop and camp here tonight if that's okay," Ajei said. "What about your dad and the rest of the tour group?" I asked. "Um, I have a confession to make," Ajei said, looking somewhat embarrassed but also a little mischievous too. "We won't be meeting up with them. This afternoon's been so much fun. I think you've felt that too. When I first saw you, you said I was lovely. The feeling's mutual, Katie. You're simply stunning and I've just had the best afternoon. I didn't want to spoil any of that. I hope you don't mind?" "Don't mind?" I replied, blushing what was probably a very deep red.

I'd never lit a campfire in my life, but there was no way I was going to let Ajei down. Ajei unsaddled and tethered the horses before expertly pitching what looked like some sort of pop up wigwam. I gathered some twigs and branches and bundled them into a pile next to a group of large stones that Ajei proceeded to form into a ring to contain the flames. Two matches and one firelighter later and we had a roaring fire going. The sun finally disappeared below the horizon and darkness engulfed us. After a while a bright three quarter moon gradually rose above one of the sandstone monoliths to illuminate the inky black blanket of the night sky. Stars began to appear. At first they were sparsely dotted and barely flickering, but eventually a full canopy of bright stars spread across and filled the whole sky. I leant back and could clearly pick out Ursa Major, The Great Bear and The Plough from amongst the ocean of luminous wonders. "So what do you think of Monument Valley?" Ajei finally asked after we'd sat for some time in silence enjoying the warmth of the fire. "It's spectacular," I replied. "But I ache all over." "You ache. Why's that?" "Yep. My back and thighs are on fire. I've never ridden a horse in my life. My neck aches too from where I've been craning it to look at all your beautiful ...
