Thanks I saved both of these stories off after reading them. This story gave me the chills. I have NO idea how the author made me feel like the narrator.

I was absorbed with the story and I could feel the silence of my companion as he traveled behind me gazing at the disappearing stars.

Another classic short story that gave me chills is Isaac Asimov's The Last Question (1956):
