ICE ~SAMPLE

It was exactly 6:30 pm on a Tuesday; I was leaning against the front door of my former girlfriend's house, my fists balled in anger at my sides. My girlfriend's shrill voice echoed throughout the spacious maze of a house, "I can't believe you would do this to me, you give me no choice Alex. We're through!" "Fine!" I screamed back, causing here eyes to explode with tears, one lonely teardrop traveling down my face as well. I burst out of the front door, my feet were quickly pattering across the porch slivers escaping the wood and shooting into my bare feet causing me to arch my back with a yelp. I leapt off of the porch and into the hot sand I attempted to run but I started slipping and sliding like a lunatic. But I wouldn't let the sand slow me down I quickened my pace and finally my feet found what they had been looking for, water. I splashed into the cool liquid causing my feet to let out an exasperated sigh of relief. My clothes weren't the top priority at the moment so I plopped down and sat in the water and buried my face inside my cupped hands. It had all happened so fast I had broke up with my first girlfriend I had lost my very first girlfriend. I don't know how long I sat there but I felt the heat leave my back and the water started to feel colder causing me to shiver. With all of my energy I lifted my head and looked at my watch it was already 8:00 I slowly stood up and walked across the beach, step by step getting closer to my small house. I thought about what I would do tomorrow and the next day what I would do without her…I felt a cold hard surface under my foot I quickly jumped up, away from the mysterious object I got down on my hands and knees and peered at what had hurt my foot I saw a glimpse of some sort of chain I slowly tugged on the chain and the rest of it popped out revealing a locket with a diamond in the middle I looked at it closer and saw the name Bellalyse carved into the metal. I tried to open the locket but it seemed as if it was sealed shut. "Oh well" I muttered. I stuffed the necklace into my pocket and journeyed on. My mind left my previous lonely thoughts and traveled to locket. Bellalyse? I wonder…hmm bellalyse…I looked up from my feet and saw my tiny cottage in the distance I eagerly started to run occasionally slipping in the sand as I neared my house I saw something in the water getting bigger as I neared my cottage I stopped on the edge of the water and squinted there was nothing there anymore. I was probably seeing things I continued running to my house.
