Note: I
am sitting here and crying because it’s so damn sad, excuse my words. I
can’t stop now and go to sleep, although it is past midnight. Have to finish
it right now. Here we go!
Chapter
2
Emma was
drifting. The waves of the ocean carried her away, caressing her body with its
soft wet hands.
She was
the ocean itself. Raging and bitter, glassy and great. She moved with the moon
and rode with the tide. No roads crossed her way, no sun shone below. Just the
blue water was around her. It was strong and she was wielding it. No pain in the
world could do her any harm.
Her eyes
opened and she saw the sun. Under her bare feet she felt the sand of the beach,
the water had carried her onto. She sat up and looked around. Her mind was still
a little fuzzy. She didn’t remember. Just the power of the ocean holding her.
Her eyes
burnt. She wiped over them with her fingers. She realized that she was crying.
Why? This place was way to beautiful to be sad, wasn’t it?
‘Emma!’
The
waves were crushing at the banks of the beach, making this relaxing noise. She
allowed herself to fall backwards in the warm sand.
‘Emma!
Can you hear me? I don’t know if you can hear me but I am talking to you,
Baby.’
Suddenly
she had to think about Brennan. About the first time they met. The first time he
had kissed her.
His
warm, full lips felt so soft. He tasted of the earth. Pure energy and a bit
spicy.
Her eyes
narrowed a little. It felt like a bittersweet memory to her and she couldn’t
say why.
‘Do
you know how much I love you?’
She
could see him smiling at her. You know this smile?
Big and
beautiful, a little cocky, dancing with humor. It could brighten up his face
like the sun lit up the morning sky.
‘I
loved you the moment I saw you!’
She just
loved his large, comforting hands. The way he used them, sweet and tender
wandering over her skin.
Silent
tears streamed down her face without being noticed.
‘I
love you now and I love you forever!’
She
loved the way he was. His two sides as she’d always said. He was both, rough
and tender. A poet on one hand and the warrior on the other. He always had to be
the hero. Protecting and caring, to risky at times.
Small
sobs escaped her chest. She cried openly now.
Clouds
came rumbling, gathering around the bright sun, stretching its steaming arms out
and turning the blue sky grey. Thin as a breath came the wind, growing more and
more powerful. She wished she had wings, that they would be hers forever. She
wished that she could fly away.
‘No
Goodbye.’
She
wished she could take these tears. That she could just wash away her sorrows and
the pain. That it wasn’t more than a dream and she would wake up and he would
lay beside her, telling her it was just an illusion.
But it
wasn’t.
He would
never be with her again, never-less how much she wished for it.
She
would have to be thankful for the precious time they’ve shared together. It
was only borrowed.
She had
to face tomorrow. Tomorrow still held out its hands for her…
The End
This
precious time… We've only borrowed… The autumn winds have blown on through…A
quiet thought will tell our story… Tomorrow still holds out its hand to you…
Yes, tomorrow still holds out its hand to you
Here's
some wings… They're yours forever… And here's some dreams that will come
true… Take these tears wash away your sorrow… Tomorrow still holds out its
hands to you… Yes, tomorrow still holds out its hands…To you… Yes,
tomorrow still holds out its hands to you…
