Song of Four Seasons
Author's note: I'm going to ask you to throw all logic away, and imagine them as teenagers..living in japan...in the summer. Yeah...
I. Summer
"Let's leave this place."
The sandy grass whistled through the wind. Bonnie said nothing in return.
Instead, she kept her eyes locked on the glistening orange sea. The sun quickly losing its head to the waves.
"You don't have to go. Stay with me." Damon softly pleaded.
Once again, she didn't reply. Instead, she lifted her hands from her flowery dress and clenched the warm grass.
Tired of standing, he sat close to the girl now, watching her. A tear escaped her eyes, sliding down her cheek. He silently wished he could touch her, help her through the pain. But him just being there was punishment enough.
Instead, he clenched his hand drawing blood in the process.
"I will see the too-distant blue sky when I close my eyes." It would be a painful reminder of his eyes.
It was his turn to keep quiet.
The train was expected to come in less than 15 minutes. Yet, she came to meet him when he selfishly requested to see her one last time.
Damon stared ahead too. Taking in the orange glow of the forest they were in proved to be difficult. The perfect view or the ocean, shaded by trees was were he and Bonnie used to spend many hours after work and school.
Her parents were divorced. Her mother lived in the city, while her and her father moved back to the island coasts. A month ago, Bonnie had received news that her mother had been killed. There was no question. She had to go back. And her train was coming in 4 minutes.
They had dated when she came to the Coasts. And had shared many experiences. Like finding out she had powers. He was the only one Bonnie told, and from there, their bond grew inseparable.
And it's not as if he was easy to befriend. He was actually quite mean to her in the beginning. And he was the black sheep of the small island town. But Bonnie had given him chance after chance and he opened his eyes to her. And he saw beauty inside and out.
He cared for her more than he could explain.
Damon turned back to see Bonnie, but she was gone.
In her place lay dried leaves from the summer heat.
