I am participating in The Twilight 25, a challenge to write twenty-five one-shots &/or drabbles based on predetermined prompts within a three month period. I'm participating for fun, as well as using as a learning experience. I would love your feedback.
This is a drabble, a standalone piece of fiction that is comprised of exactly 100 words. I will be writing both one-shots and drabbles.
The Twilight 25
Prompt: Raindrops
Pen name: distantxdream (LJ), 118 (FFn)
Pairing: Bella/Edward (New Moon, Canon)
Rating: T
The crackle of soft drops on brittle leaves fills the air around her. As the raindrops finally touch her tangled limbs, she finds herself hoping that the Sunday school story about the Ark is true. She hopes for endless rain to fall from the sky.
This indefinite rain would fill the earth around her and leave her breathless and light. Tidal waves will remove the heavy aching feeling that he has left behind.
Wash me away, she prays.
She refuses to live the rest of her life knowing that she has been whole once before, but he left her incomplete.
