Mara's POV
It was the most bittersweet moment of the entire year. We were saying goodbyes. And everyone from Anubis had elected to have an end of term picnic before we left school for summer break in the morning.
The sun was just starting to set, and as Jerome and Alfie went to start a fire, I flopped onto the ground, not even really caring which direction my hair went. Amber sat on a swing next to Joy, and Nina and Fabian lied on a bench and cuddled. It was a gorgeous park, with leaves starting to grow everywhere, and it was a gorgeous late May evening. What more could I ask for? We were all blissfully happy, forgetting that we were probably never going to see Nina again, and that Mick was going back to Australia for school. We forgot that the school year had been crazy. We forgot about relationships, we forgot about frenemies, or friends, or straight out enemies. I felt numb to all to all of that wasted emotion. I felt free and blissfully ignorant to everything else. I was relieved that summer was just around the corner, and all of the joyous things that comes with summer.
Out of nowhere, I heard a scream that sounded like it was from a three year old girl. Actually, it was from Alfie, ecstatic that they had figured out how to start a fire, as we watched a single flame rise. We all gathered around, as Vera pulled out a bag of marshmallows for us to roast. I closed my eyes, and a million songs rushed through my mind that reminded me of this moment. But this moment was its own song. An unwritten one. And it never could be a song. You'd have to capture the sound of right now and put it in a jar. And it couldn't have sounded better. This song was my new favorite.
A.N. Actually, it kind of reminds me of "Our Song" by Taylor Swift, but anyways, this was just an idea I got tonight, based off of something I was doing earlier, so please tell me how you liked it!
