I woke up slowly, and gradually became aware of my surroundings. I was warm. Not unpleasantly hot, but comfortable. I was laying on something soft and could feel the texture of fabric beneath my fingertips. Maybe….. a bed? Might as well open my eyes and find out.
The first thing I saw was the wooden ceiling. I could clearly see the individual planks of wood and what looked like straw poking out from the cracks in between. Wiiieeerd. Am I in a barn or something? I sat up a bit to get a better look around.
It was a bed, and there wasn't a pillow, just a few thin brown blankets that fell from my chest as I sat up. The bedframe was just metal bars too, a cool grey that reminded me of old prison movies. I could also see a fireplace crackling near the foot of the bed. But it had a strange curve to it. Then I realized that the wall was round. But that's as far as I got before I fell back to the bed with a gasp. A sharp pain radiated from both my side and hands, making it painful to move. That was not a good idea… Suddenly there was a hand on my shoulder and someone spoke.
"Careful princess, don't want to overdo it." Said a velvety smooth voice that was most definitely male. I turned my head to see who it was and came face to face with a very attractive guy.
Thank you so much CjGraceWeasley for reminding me that this still existed. XP
Sorry you guys that it took this long for an update. Honestly, I haven't written anything at all since last year. I still have my notebook, and a couple more pages of the story, then it's all up in the air from there. My junior year kinda blindsided me before, and I was totally overwhelmed. To be honest, things are still kinda crazy now with applying to college and all that jazz, but it looks like the storm might be ending soon, and oyu guys can look forward to semi-regular updates in the not-so-distant future! :)
