- God, how I hate my life! - whispered Seri.
She had just come from the horrid diner. How she hated it. Everyone chattering about their perfect lives and their perfect planes.
Everybody was overjoyed when Helios popped the question. The king and queen, of course, gave their consentient. Very soon there would be another weeding. Tomorrow, all the planet would be talking about it. The first princess was engaged and so the future of the royal family was surely looking bright.
She was very happy for her sister. Really, she was. But now that she was going to marry, a hole lot of attention was going to be turned to her. "And that sucks"
People were going to start wondering about her personal life (more specifically, her love life)and she didn't want that. Her love life was a disaster! Her mother had found the love of her life when she was fourteen and her sister when she was nine! She had seventeen and so far, the only male that showed the slightest bit of interest in her was her father (not in that way, you pervs). That couldn't be promising. She didn't exactly had a private life, so have a private someone was impossible. Besides if they'd approach her it would, obviously, be by interest.
She went to her balcony and gazed at the moon. What would it be, to live in there? What would it be, to be there? To have lived there? Far away from everything else. Could she really belong to something so beautiful? Yes. She could feel it inside of her. There was no denying it. She closed her eyes…. The energy, running through her body and making her feel warm and at peace. Like she was being transported. She felt light and like she was floating. At ease with her own skin. At ease with that sensation; that energy. Calm and serene.
When Seri opened her eyes, she was greeted with another sigh. She was no longer looking at the moon. Instead, all that she could see was blackness. She was surrounded by darkness. Nothing but darkness, no matter where she looked at. Strangely, she didn't feel frightened. It looked like the darkness was calling her. Something was calling for her. "That has got to be the silliest thought you have had all day."
Who or what could possibly be calling for her, her above all.
Suddenly, the crescent moon on her forehead started to glow with such intensity that made a halo around her, making her the only light in all the immense blackness. Seri felled in a trance immediately and started walking forward. She walked for quite a wile, unconsciously knowing the way she was supposed to go, the call more and more powerful every step she took and every step she took her crescent moon shined a bit more, until she reached a spot illuminated by light. Under the spotlight was some kind of coffin made of Kristal. It had millions of small sapphires adorning it. The unconscious girl approached the monument and if she'd have been awake, she would have seen a young man, about her age, laid there peacefully. She raised her left arm and when her hand touched the coffin a huge amount of energy released itself from within her and covered everything.
"My head hurts."
That was the first thing that came to Seri's mind.
"What happened?"
Her head hurt so much, she couldn't bring herself to open her eyes. Well, she was lying on something soft and warm, so she doubted she would still be on that place. Then she began to listen to a steady sound. It was somehow comforting and terribly familiar. She focused on it. Tudum,… tudum,… tudum… It was a heart. She was listening to a heart……. Then that meant she was on top of someone!
Seri forced herself to open her eyes. When she did it, she closed them again almost immediately. She was in her room again, that was for sure, and the goddamn lights were still on.
"Maybe it was just a dream. Yea and how do you explain the body under yourself?"
That reminded her that she needed to get up, so this time slower, she opened her eyes. She was near the balcony. Carefully she lifted herself and looked at the person. What she saw made her blush and fall backwards. It was a man! A man with hair the color of her eyes. He was dressed in dark blue also and by the cloths she would guess he was high in status. When her eyes returned to his face something caught her attention. It was a crescent moon on his forehead. His was black and it was turned backwards. Seri blinked. She didn't knew there were more people who had crescent moons on the forehead, besides the royal family. Her curiosity got the best of her and she crawled to him. She neared her face to his and got a better look.
"Yup. No doubts in there. It's a moon alright."
Then she let her eyes wonder and examined his face more detailed. He was extremely handsome. Had gentle and gracious features. His nose possessed a graceful curve and his lips were thin but very well designed. And his eyes were… closed. Seri sighted.
- How am I supposed to explain this? - she said resting her forehead in his.
That's when his eyes opened.
So, what do you think? I want to know so, please review, tell me what you think so far and what you think of Seri so far.
