I must have dozed off because when I opened my eyes and looked around the boat I saw that Dad was gone. I called him Dad still because the idea of him not being my Dad hurt, thinking I grew up without a Mum and a Dad hurt, a half-sister and half-brother was all I had growing up, they were my only real family...
I looked at my watch, it was almost 3 o'clock so I decided to go out, I changed my shirt and headed for the SU bar.
When I arrived I went straight to the bar. "Beer please mate" I asked the man, I didn't know him but I remember seeing him around from when I worked here... Josh... Joe? something like that.
He handed me beer and I paid him. "Cheers..." I walked over to the sofas in the corner. I sat here with Texas. God why did everything have to remind me of her?
Soft music started playing in the back ground. Someone obviously just turned the juke box on I thought…
Only you can save me by Darin started sounding out through the speakers...
I feel you in the air, floating through the atmosphere...
Your presence everywhere, when I shut my eyes I see you like you're really there, it's heavy on my heart when you're not even here.
Without you I would fall apart...
Just then Sienna walked in. I looked at her, her eyes found mine straight away... she was staring back at me. Looking up and down the length of her body I noticed she had dressed up, a tight, short black strappy dress. Very short I thought. Her hair was down and straight, her eyes were smoky. She looked nice. Really nice. I scolded myself for my thoughts. Why was I thinking all this? I just really missed Texas and now I had these feelings and nobody to share them with.
I couldn't help but notice that she looked determined, her mind set on something... that's my sister for you, always got her mind set on something or someone and she would do anything and I mean anything to get it.
She walked over to the bar. I saw the barman eye her up, I felt anger rise to the surface. Maybe I was just a tad overprotective I thought to myself.
The barman passed her over a glass of what looked like white wine and as she reached for the glass her hand brushed up against his causing me to frown to myself.
I thought about the lyrics of the song and it reminded me of Texas, it also made me think of Sienna. She sets me free from all the pain and grieve I feel.
