The night was quiet and calm. A cloudless, moonless sky drifted above two cabins and a blue green lake. Inside were 8 boys and girls, 4 in each. Those were May Maple, Leah Thomson, Dana Smith, Kylee Carroll, Aidan Reese, Matt Flynn, Chris Sere, and finally, Drew Jade. Inside the girls' cabin, Leah, Dana, and Kylee were all sleeping peacefully all except for May.
May couldn't sleep. She kept tossing and turning. Finally, her sapphire eyes shot open. She groaned when she looked at the clock. 1 AM. She sighed. Just like that, she heard a song like sound from the outside. She climbed down from her top bunk and looked out the window. Wind started to pick up as the lake made small waves. She heard it again. It was like a beautiful, soothing tune that rid her of all her teenage stress. She closed her eyes at the song and curled her lips into a satisfied smile. It stopped and along with it, the wind did too. The lake seemed calm and with no waves. She tip toed to Leah's bed and shook her mentioning to wake the hell up. Leah groaned.
"May, what could you possibly want? It's one in the morning…" she complained.
"Did you hear it?" May asked in a hushed tone.
"Hear what?" Leah griped.
"That song! You didn't hear it? It was beautiful, it definitely soothed me." A quiet beeping noise was heard from the desk. May picked up the purple device known as her TekBuddy and found a message from Aidan.
'Hey May, sorry to wake you up, but did you hear that song? Call me crazy, but there was this tune outside and it got all windy and shit!'
"Well, he heard it too." May mumbled as she got ready to reply.
'Yeah you didn't wake me up. I wasn't able to sleep anyways. Yeah I heard it, but Leah didn't. Crazy huh? How could you miss something that angelic. It made me kind of tired. I'm going to go to be now. Text me back in the morning.
Lotsa loves and good night,
May'
Aidan looked out the glass window to see that a light in the cabin way across from him had turned off. A familiar beeping noise was faintly heard, just because of Matt's obsessive snoring. He checked his black device and found the message from May. He skimmed through the message and when he saw the concluding sentence, he felt his cheeks redden.
'Lotsa loves? Is that something she would really say?' When he thought about her silky voice saying that, he blushed even harder. He was so into his thoughts he didn't notice a small yawn emit from his mouth. He too was very tired from the melody. He decided to get some rest.
When morning finally arrived, May got out of her bed and stretched her arms and popped her knuckles and back. She looked out the window to see the sky as an orangey-red fading into purple then blue. She smiled. Today was going to be a good day. The other girls had gotten up too and rubbed their exhausted eyes.
"C'mon, guys! Up and at 'em!" May exclaimed jumping out of her bed and opened the windows next to their beds, letting in the cool nine o'clock breeze of the morning.
"At what?" Dana asked tuckered out.
"It's an expression." Leah replied wearily. Her eyes were not fully open but they were when she heard a familiar voice.
"Leah! Good morning!" Matt called from his cabin that was a long way from hers. Shivers went down her back through her light blue spaghetti strap and her cheeks went a light pink.
"Go say hi to him!" May said shoving Leah out of her bed. But then she heard the oh so familiar voice of Aidan.
"Get back here you mindless lover boy!" May chuckled.
"Boys…" Kylee shrugged.
"Amen, my friend." Dana bowed to Kylee.
"I was just saying hi. You didn't have to pull me away like that." Matt grumbled.
"Yeah, I know," Aidan said simply. "But hey, I was talking to May last night and I heard this awesome song! It was, like, from outside! It was awesome! Just like a Chimecho's Heal Bell."
"Uhhh, dude, you're starting to scare me," Matt backed away. "But then again, who don't you. With your emo hair and eyes and crap."
"Oh, shut up!" Aidan commanded and glared at Matt.
"So, May, what was it that you heard last night exactly?" Leah finally blurted. Everyone looked their way.
"Well, it was like this…I don't know how to explain it. It was great though. You should've heard it."
"Yeah…I was sleeping fine until you came and woke me up!" Leah laughed.
"Well my work here is done." May said simply. Everyone laughed.
'I wonder why only Aidan and I heard that song. It was beautiful though…Why didn't anyone else here it?'
