The Cave And The Imaginary

Chapter1

Finally the last class of the day, art. I'm just looking out the window at the rain slowly trickling down the glass while the teacher lectures about something we've learned already.

"Tomorrow is running away from you", I think to myself. I think about this a lot, Simone hates it when I talk about it. By the way, Simone is my friend I share rooms with. She's my only friend... Well only real friend, one everyone else can actually see. You can say she's the 'popular one' in class where's I am the total opposite.

Ok so a bit about me... I'm the quiet one but I speak my mind when I need to. I guess I look like your average teen, long layered hair with side bangs, blue eyes, wears uggs, tracksuit... I just don't think like your average teen because I don't think many of your average teens out there would have an imaginary friend like me...

Ding, ding, ding

And there's my signal to leave. I make my way out of the classroom and head out the school doors outside. I'm going to my usual, the cave. Nobody else finds it because it's deep into the forest but I know my way round there. Luckily for me it's stopped raining, for a while at least. This will make my little trip a bit easier.

I make it to the cave and I can see the big eye in the stone at the end. I take a look around like I always do, at the lanterns to light it up, the water streaming down, the flowers growing through the cracks in the floor...but I don't see-

"Boo!"

"Aaah!!!" I say jumping from my feet.
"Miles! I told you not to scare me!"

"I can scare who I want, you're the only one to scare around here anyway... plus it's adorable when I scare you" Miles says to me.

"Whatever" I say playfully pushing him, "so what's up for drawing today?"

"I was thinking the eye..." Miles answers.

"The eye of the cave? We've drawn that millions of times!", I interrupt.

"You didn't let me finish, the eye of the cave at night"

"What's so different about it at night?"

"You'll see" he says with a smirk on his face.

"Alright, so what now?"

"We wait for the night"
