Forrest

Skitch skitch skitch

The noise fills my quiet room.

Skitch skitch skitch

I've been sketching a drawing of a made-up place in my sketchbook for hours.

Skitch skitch skitch

Usually when I sketch, my mind overflows with ideas, thoughts, or problems, but I guess I ran out of them.

Skitch skitch skitch

Because of it, all I can think about is that skitching noise.

Skitch skitch skitch

I stop, finally having enough. I turn on my chair to look for my phone, which laid on my bed. I quickly grab at it and put on the earbuds that was already plugged into it.

I put on Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven and turned the volume just right for my quiet room. I don't listen to songs with lyrics, I prefer classical instrumentals. It soothes me and allows me to think clearer.

I continue to sketch and add the finishing touches. The skitching could no longer be heard.

After I was done I leaned back and raised the sketch to eye level. If only such a place existed. A quiet, safe, haven with a beautiful view be it day or night.

I lay the sketchbook down on the desk and look ahead through the window before me. Trees. Just trees.

I live with the Alpha and my room is at the back of the house. So, through my window you just see a continuous ocean of dull emeralds under the changing sky.

Knock knock knock

The sound didn't reach me. The vibrating, however, did. I pull out the earbuds and lay the phone with it on my desk next to my fishbowl of guppies, turning on my chair to face the knocker.

"C'mon, Depressed Charming! Dinner is ready!"

I reply with an unamused face to the Alpha.

"Aww, look who's actin' all seerriouus~"

"Stop it", I groan.

She snickers, "Oh, fine! But come on down and eat dinner!"

"Yes, Alpha."

I saw her mouth still smiling yet her eyes drop their humor.

"You know...you don't have to address me as your Alpha. Calling me Lavender is all right..."

"Yes, Lavender."

She sighs and shakes her head as she smiles sadly at me, "Oh Violet, he's hopeless!!"

~~~~~~~~during dinner~~~~~~~~~

"Forrest."

"Yes, Alp-"

A knife aimed at my face is thrown, but I catch it just in time. I look at her emotionless face, confused, and hesitantly return the knife to the Alph- oh...

"Yes...Lavender...?"

She smiles happily, "Well, 2 things: first, do you know what today's date is?"

"The 30th of July, I believe."

"Yes, good! Now, do you know or at least recognize the name Axel Saroon?"
