Seen from Afar

By: Mae

There is a legend that if you go to the town's cemetery during midnight, and find an angel statue, you can make a wish, and it'll come true. But the cemetery is a large area, and you could easily get lost.

Today is just another boring day in biology, and as Mr. Mike was too busy writing on the board. A note landed on my desk, I looked back and saw Mira mouthing out 'open it', when I opened. It revealed…

"Hey, Scarlet, tonight, were all going to the graveyard, to try that legend for our selves, you in?" from Mira.

I thought about my answer, I never had much excitement in my life, and knowing I still have one year left in this boring school, I should take this opportunity that is given, so my answer was yes, and passed the note back to Mira.

The clock stroke, 11pm, and a cars horn was blowing outside my house, I peaked to see Mira, in her boyfriend's car with 4 other people, I grabbed my jacket, and cell, locked the door, and squished into the truck, beside Kim, and some boy who I haven't seen before.

"Scarlet, this guy is Daniel Grimly, he was the one with the idea to go to the cemetery, and he's a new student in our school." Mira said, grinning at me.

I looked at Daniel, he really looked like a model from the weekly fashion magazines, his eyes were emerald green, and skin was fair white, along with long jet black hair, falling across his eyes.

The drive took a while, but we finally made it to the cemetery. During the nights, no one dared to come here, so it wouldn't be much of a trouble to get caught. Mira handed all of us flash lights.

"The angel statues, are scattered around the place, so we'll need to split in groups of two to search for them, will meet back here at the gate after midnight hits."

Everyone was placed into groups, Mira, and her boyfriend Drew. Kim, and Angie, leaving me with the new guy.

"Arightly then. See you guys soon." Mira said vanishing into the darkness, as everyone did too.

I stayed still because the fear now took control over my body, I couldn't move.

"It's alright you know, nothing could ever happen, when you have someone with you." Daniel said, looking back at me, "I know you're scared, so it's alright if we stayed here and wait."

"But, aren't you going to make a wish?" I asked,

"No, besides I don't believe wishes come true."

"So then, why are you here?"

"To see the place and to see if they'll make it out alive."

"That's kind of harsh." I mumbled,

"Not really, your friends are quit cool, to even do these kinds of stuff." He said, with a soft smile.

"Okay then, since you're here to see the place, I'll come." I said, forcing out words that I may regret.

"Really?"

"It's no fun, to even be here doing nothing. But there's only one thing you gotta promise!"

"And what's that?" he asked,

"Don't ditch me."

"Fine."

We walked around the main road, flashing the flash light on the side of us, looking at grave stones. Suddenly my flash light died out, and only darkness was wrapped around me, I started to tremble, but then I felt Daniels hand grabbed mine,

"It's alright, I'm still here."

All fear melted away when I felt his warm hand holding mine. We continued to walk the path,

"Scarlet, do you believe in spirits?" Daniel asked,

"Um, I don't really know, I haven't seen one before. Why the sudden question?"

"Oh nothing. Just curious."

As we walked on, the night grew darker, we were already heading back, and as I saw other flash lights ahead, the end of this trip was almost done.

"Scarlet, I'm glad I meet you." Daniel said, as he kissed my hand, "I hope I will see you again."

I blushed, "But you will. At school."

Daniel just nodded his head, "Oh wait, go on, without me, I need to…tie my shoes."

"Okay." I went back to the group,

"Hey, Oh where's Daniel?" Kim, asked,

"Oh, he had to tie his shoes, he should be coming." I said,

When I looked back I didn't see him, so we all headed to where I left him. When we came back to the spot, he was gone, but his flashlight was pointing to a grave stone that carved: Daniel Grimly 1992-2010.
