The day was growing brighter, the dawn on the new life that we were going to make for ourselves. The moon was shining brightly, and the love of my life, Antony was sitting right beside me."Antony! doesn't the moon look beautiful against the water?" He frowned, then smiled"silly little bird! That isn't the moon!" It was my turn to frown. "w-what?", not quite believing my ears (plus I hated being called silly) " that's earth!" he said with that same cheerful smile. The worst part was I could tell he wasn't kidding because that boy had the worst poker face in the world! My face went white "are you... feeling ill?" He responded with, "no, I feel fine! better than ever, with you here beside me" ... " "Antony... What planet do we live on?" "oh that's easy!" he chirped, "London"! I held my breath, ready to explode with my family's famous temper. "ok... now where were you born?" he looked at me, tilting his head like a puppy."1764!" I jumped out of the boat and ran to land, screaming all the way.
love and tea,
Ophelia ember
