A Year Later.

Darcie stared out to the lake in front of her, leaning on the rails, her chin resting on her arms. She was smiling softly, watching the sun set over the water. As the glimmers caught her eye, she sighed, contentedly. The trees around her waved a little in the cool wind, as she closed her eyes, before her head started to spin. Her smile faded, soon to be replaced with a frown as she became lightheaded. She slowly lowered herself to the floor, with the help of the rails, until she was sitting down, and placed her head in her hands. Her eyes were closing, she kept blinking, her breathing deep, trying to gain composure. It was useless, and as she looked across the river one more time, she left consciousness. Everything was gone.
*It's hit the water now. There's a large splash, but no noise. I can't hear anything, as if the world has stopped. A gasp escapes my lips, I don't know why my eyes are filling with tears. I turn around, my back now to the wooden fence. Falling to the floor, I hold my knees. Suddenly I start to sob. I have to leave, to run. I stand up, holding the rails for support, unable to steady myself. I don't look back . I begin to run, stumbling and falling, my legs feel like jelly.*
Darcie's eyes slowly opened, a look of confusion on her face. She looked around at the bridge she was stood on, wondering why she was on the floor, and why she had a sudden eery feeling of her surroundings. She shook her head, looking at the floor. Before she could make sense of anything, she stood up, and checked her watch. "Shit." she mumbled, quietly. Four minutes until she had to be home, she'd have to run. Quickly putting one foot in front of the other, she began to make the short distance to her house, her head feeling slightly funny.
