Had an idea last night and it came out like this. This is for you my dear Josh... Hope you'll enjoy!
You know that they don't belong to me...
Have fun!
Broken dreams
A slight fog covered the water blurring the horizon line. She was standing at the edge of the water, watching the grey nothingness. The slight breeze, the water touching her feet; everything felt cold despite the thick woolen sweater she was wearing. Usually this place made her feel peaceful and rested. Any other day, the rhythm of the waves would have soothed her. But not today. She should have known. It was bound to happen. Emma sighed and wrapped her arms around her in a protective gesture. Another wave caressed her bare feet carrying sand away. It slightly unbalanced her and increased her nausea.
Unbalanced, rejected, lost, sad, angry, cold, betrayed. There was a multitude of words to describe how she was feeling. But none seemed adequate. It was rooted in her heart and soul; the pain was beyond words. The coldness had not left her from the moment she had seen them kissing in the hall. She kept telling herself that it had been coming a long way. The signs had been there from the start but she had overlooked them. Her own emotions had her blinded. And pain was the price to pay.
Of course she could change things without blinking. But it would be unfair, to Brennan, to Shalimar and to her. So here she was, on the empty beach, silently crying over lost occasions, non kept promises, her broken heart and dreams.
Emma wanted to run away and hide in a little corner until her wounds were healed. But she was not a coward and she would face the days one after the other.
