Year 1887
I lie on the ground and stare into space.
The stars start to move, in the space of your face.
I see you there now.
Looking down at me with that cute little smile that I like to see.
You say "close your eyes" "Tell me what you see"
I see only two people, just you and me.
We're walking the long lines getting our feet wet.
The horizon turns pink, as the sun starts to set.
We make love through the night, on that green mild grass.
It was nice holding you while I think.
Couldn't imagine seeing another heart sink.
Yet, you are there.
I'm here, in a blink.
"What is she doing?" I hear Naysa whisper to Keziah, as I lay back smoothed in the grass.
"Oh, you know... daydreaming of Tavern Nathaniel Lockwood. Like always." Keziah laughed to herself.
"Tavern? I thought she loathed him?" My young adorable sister speaks.
"As if. Keep up, she just loathes his need to stay in New Orleans and suffer in silence as she ponders their once complicated love, in her mind over and over."
"Complicated love? They only had one date."
"Ugh, shut up. Please." I say. "I cannot relax with you two talking."
"Well I suggest you rest up, darling sister. We are crashing this town's meeting tonight. We have a Wendigo to kill." Keziah says, placing her shells into Jaxon 'Stephen' Gilbert's shotgun that he let her barrow while hunting. She never gave it back, and I'm sure he has no care.
Stephen Gilbert -he prefers to be called, had loved my sister since he was five years old when she kissed him near the Bayou behind our old home. Unlike Tavern and I, who have only been my true friends for two years. He and I have only gone on two dates but when he kissed me on that last night... I knew I loved him.
Here, in Illinois we come to start new - However, I'm sure we'll just only be passing through.
Things are different now, ever since that night of the fire.
We're different, I'm different. This is our new beginning.
