Prologue
19th April 2279
Anna:
I am tracing the contours of Charons shoulder blade with my finger. He is sleeping unaware on his stomach and I am taking the opportunity to memorise each curve and slope of his muscles. i love how he feels and my hand glides down his bare back.
Charon mumbles something I cant understand and lifts his nearest hand to me and runs it through my hair.
"Morning" he groans.
"Hello sleepy" I give him a tired smile and scoot closer to him.
Charon smirks "you can't be ready for more."
I can't help but giggle and give his arm a squeeze.
"Not a chance. I want to walk today."
Charon rolls away from me with a grin to sit up at the edge of the bed. My ratty old blouse is picked up from the floor and thrown at me.
"Get dressed we will go to Gobs for breakfast."
"Pancakes ! Syrup ! Cereal !"
"Mirelurk."
I groan unenthusiastically, I hate Mirelurk. I laugh at the scowl he gives me but it stops short in my throat as Charon reaches for his own tilts his head in confusion.
"Turn around" I command.
He did as he was told and I crawl over to him. My fingers follow faded black lines which I have never noticed before. How long have they been here ? How could I have not noticed ?
"There are numbers on your back."
Charon shrugs as if it is nothing "They've been there for a while"
"8-26-2279. 38 N 77 S."
"What does it mean ?"
"Date and co ordinates."
I frown now completely unnerved by the discovery.
"That date hasn't been yet."
