NUMBER ONE
Intro
It was another sleepless night. Just like many others. She tried to count sheep, or fish, or hamsters, or whatever the f..k might work. But it seemed that nothing worked. And drugs were out of the question. She won't go down that road again. Chamomile tea didn't help, either. Seriously, has this tasteless thing ever helped anyone? She was more of a coffee type, anyway.
She went to the balcony. Lights of Los Angeles were burning the night sky. It was 3 am, but still, the city was overwhelmed with life. She just stood there with her blonde hair freely cascading over her shoulders, her almost perfect body wrapped in a small piece of something that is supposed to be a night gown, but it was actually barely covering the important parts.
Her phone suddenly vibrated. Well, at least she is not the only one with sleeping problems. "Have you reached the decision yet? M." Now, that's a good question. She just stood there for a while, and just let the memories pour into her mind. Every time she played that movie in her head, it all ended with Alex dying. And after that, just blank space and pain. But now, for the first time, she saw something else - a chance for a fresh start, maybe? God knows she needed one. "Yes, I've decided. I am moving to London. D."
So this is it. She is not even sure if this is the right thing to do, or just another getaway from her troubles. But there is no turning back now - she is accepting that job in London and moving to England in the next couple of days. For some reason, she felt happy. It was just some vague feeling about London being the right place for her now. It was enough to lead her back to bed. Finally, after many days, she fell asleep with a little smile on her face.
Please, rate and comment. This is my first story ever, so be gentle. :)
