Ok, here comes my first chapter story. Bear with me, since my boyfriend broke up with me today and I'm feeling……I don't know, just pain. But please, at least try to enjoy my story.
Not much affected her now. Then again, she didn't even care what happened to her. He was dead, and he could never come back. Selene Burks didn't even talk to anyone anymore. All she did was drift around the house like a ghost, her black-rimmed eyes blank, staring at nothing. Not even her wolf, Moondream, could help the goth now.
And Coal wanted to help. She was so important to him, why couldn't she see that? The young half-human watched her, and it hurt him to see the pain in her eyes. He couldn't stand it. She needed someone to cry on, and he wanted to be that person.
Selene had never cried, not once in her fourteen years, until the day Gage, her bonded ferret, had died. He told me he'd stay with me, so where is he now? Selene would whisper this to Dream every night, tears pouring out of her dark eyes. Every day, when she talked to Coal, she wouldn't even look at him. She just looked down at the ground, her black hair covering her eyes.
Coal had to help. He talked to Dream, but she offered no suggestions. She could only sigh and shake her head, her white fur glowing in the moonlight. That was what they did, sat under a tree and watched their dear friend. She still refused to talk about Gage to Coal, only to Dream.
Selene didn't want to admit it, not even to Dream, but her health was failing her. She couldn't stand it anymore. I'll go insane before I believe them telling me that everything's going to be alright. Because it will never be alright. Never.
Selene couldn't sleep. At night, she walked around in the moonlit garden, silent as the fog. Silent tears dripped down her pale cheeks, which had grown even paler since the young ferret's death. After all, Selene refused to come out during the day, staying in her room and sobbing. Coal followed her at night; his wolf senses following her every movement. This happened every night, until the night Selene vanished.
All right, I think that was way too short for a first chapter, but hey. You can't blame me, can you? I promise I'll have the next chapter up as soon as possible. Other than that, review my other stories and review this chapter!
