I take my phone out of my pocket, I grab my airpods putting them in my ear. I turn my music on as I make my way down the road.

The streets were practically empty today, It was a little strange seeing as it's a Saturday.

But, honestly I don't mind, my mind always seems to be at ease when I'm alone. I raise my head from my phone and I see 3 guys.

They looked like friends or something. And I could barely hear their conversation seeing as they were outside someone's house and I was down the road. I begin to get closer to them, and the house they were outside of, is next to my friend India's house.

I waltz past them and one boy looks at me as I walk past, the other two focused on their conversation.

As I approach India's house, I take my airpods out and pause my music. The boy still starring at me, I make my way up the cobble path, and walk up the stone steps.

I am outside her house, I knock gently on the door. I wait for India to open the door, but it seems as no one's home.

I turn around noticing no cars were in the driveway. I sigh, and walk down the stone steps.

All I could think about was why she stood me up. I roll my eyes, and begin walking again, I pass by the boys again, but this time they all smile at me. I smiled even though I don't even know who they were.

I just ignored the straining thoughts bothering me.

I am sitting inside when I get my daily alarm to watch the sunset. I turn the alarm off, walking outside my house. I make my way out of the driveway, I hope the sunset is pretty today.

All I can remember about sunsets is that I always used to watch them as a kid with my Father.

Sadly, he passed away 4 years ago, he died because of the military. I don't think about it anymore because it's best to not think about things like that, so instead I watch sunsets to keep the tradition going.

I approach the field, opening the gate. I walk down the grass, I finally find the perfect spot and I sit down. I look at the gorgeous sky, taking in all the beauty of it.

Everything about the sunset is just gorgeous. I hear some shuffling sounds behind me. Was someone here, because this is my secret spot. I don't think anyone knows about this, but whatever.

I turn around and I am met by the guy from earlier, this time he has a different outfit on and no hat. I just look away, and he sits down next to me. I keep looking at the sky awkwardly, I could feel his eyes on me. I sigh softly, "Hi." I mutter softly. He grins slightly, "Hey." he says in a relaxed voice. I keep watching the sunset, "So, do you go here often?" he asks in a soothing tone. I turn my face to look at him, "Uh yeah. Ive been going here ever since I was a kid." I softly say, a small smile on my face before I turn back to the sunset. "That's cool, I just decided to come here to get away from the chaos of the world. I love sunsets what about you?" He says in an eager tone. I smile and say "I love sunsets too. And I also come here to ignore the chaos of the world."

He looks at me, a smile on his face "Cool. So uh, whats your name?" I look at him again, "Oh uh, my names Rae. Rae Williams." I say with a small smile, he smiles at me slightly.

"Cool, the name's Chris." I smile at him, "Nice, so uh I saw you earlier. The people you were with, are those your brothers?" He chuckles, "Yeah, my brothers. Their names are Matt and Nick."

I smile shyly, "Cool. You guys look a lot alike." He laughs, "Yeah, we get that a lot. Probably because we are triplets." I look at him shocked,

"Wow, that's really cool." He looks at me again, "Yeah. So uh, you got any siblings?" I look down, "Oh, nah. No siblings." He looks slightly concerned, "Oh, that's too bad." I nod slightly, I gaze back up at the sunset. "We better watch the sunset." I mutter. He smiles softly, "Yeah."
