Well K is paying attention~ "Shit your at 13 and we're going to get cut off soon!" Including this chapter, I'm PLANNING on 3 more today. I've picked out a good spot...just before the POV changes...
After several minutes of silence passed between us, I had calmed a little and offered her some water.
"That would be lovely."
She didn't say anything as I pulled off my gloves and dropped them in the trash can before counting my steps to the kitchen.
One, two, three...fourteen, fifteen, I crossed the threshold and let out the breath I'd been holding.
I got our glasses of water and two coasters and headed back out.
I froze halfway there.
She was no longer sitting on the couch.
Instead, she was standing in front of my ceiling to floor bookcase, a single finger running along the spines.
Surprisingly, I was okay with her touching them.
All I could focus on was the ethereal vision in my living room, reverently perusing my collection.
I wanted to photograph her, capture her in this moment forever.
I'd always loved photography, but hadn't touched my camera since the incident.
Moving on.
I turned back around before she saw me.
I took the water and coasters back to the kitchen and then went down the hall to retrieve my camera.
