I walked out of my house and checked my phone for the time. It was 10 pm. I kept walking until I had reached the beach across the street from my house.
I kicked the warm sand underneath my feet as I walked upon it. When I stopped, I looked up into the moon.
The moonlight lit up the ocean as I stared at it. The calm waters glistened in its reflection of the light. Far off in the sand there lay a girl. I couldn't really see since it was quite far away though. I ran over to her and fell to my knees once I reached her.
I realized that she wasn't awake once I saw that she didn't budge from my appearance. Normally someone would get startled if someone just came randomly running up to them in the dark out of nowhere. I put my head to her chest to see if I had heard a heartbeat.
There was a beat...it wasn't strong though, it was unusually faint. I placed my finger under her nose to see if she was still breathing, and she was.
Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.
Her skin glowed in the light of the moon.
Not just a regular glow, but it was more of a shine to it. I had lifted her bridal style and took her back to my house for the night.
I put her in my other bedroom for the night and then I went to bed.
The next morning I woke up and made breakfast for her and myself. I was making her plate and put it on the table before I noticed her standing in the doorway of my kitchen.
She didn't say anything, she just stood there.
I handed the plate to her and she took it out of my hand. She then silently went back to her room to go eat it. I grabbed my plate and put it onto the table for when I was going to return. I went to her room and saw that the door was closed, not completely though. I knocked on the door before I walked in.
Once I walked in I noticed that she hadn't touched her food. She had left it on the nightstand next to her. She was sitting in the bed with both of her legs crossed.
I walked up to her and sat on the edge of her bed.
"Why aren't you eating? Are you not hungry?"
