Night came and Jeremy woke up in the middle of its cold pressence. Jeremy sat up and stared at Sophie's bed which was next to his. Sophie wasn't there, he grabbed his phone and opened it for a time check.
" Ten fifty-nine, maybe she's outside " Jeremy whispered to himself.
He stood up slowly, and started to make his way to the door. Jeremy crept very carefully to not make a single sound that can wake Jasmine who was near him, and also not to disturb his friends sleep. Jeremy reached for the door and slowly twisted the knob, and slowly opening it.
" Please don't make a noise " Jeremy told the door as he opened it.
Jeremy crept out of the room slowly, and walked towards the screen door. As he walked down the stairs chilly breeze passed by Jeremy legs. Jeremy arrived in the living room, it was all dark. It was like the place was eaten by shadows. As Jeremy stared at the screen door where moonlight dripped, he saw Sophie outside sitting at the cabins staircase. He walked and opened the door. He sat beside Sophie, Sophie was closing her eyes as Jeremy stared at her.
" Cold isn't it? " Sophie said.
" What are we gonna talk about? " Jeremy asked as he sat beside Sophie.
Sophie closed her eyes.
" Eleven-eleven " Sophie said while her eyes were closed.
Jeremy became confused and scratched his head, Sophie was acting wierd. Cold breeze blew again, Jeremy stared at Sophie who was shivering as she felt the wind pass by. Jeremy removed his sweater, and placed it at the back of Sophie.
" Thanks. Wishing time ends at eleven-fifteen, better start wishing " Sophie said as she closed her eyes again.
Jeremy closed his eyes, wishing that he could tell Sophie. Wishing for the courage that he didn't have to confess to Sophie. Jeremy was done wishing, he slowly opened his heavy eyes. And both of them faced each other.
" What did you wish for? " Sophie asked.
Jeremy cleared his throat.
" Uhmm, well. I wished that we could talk about the thing which we are gonna talk about " Jeremey made up.
" How about you? " Jeremy asked her back.
" Nothing special. And about what we're gonna talk about, just never mind it anymore. I forgot the thing which I was going to say " Sophie explained.
" And~, now what? " Jeremy asked.
Sophie stood up, offering a hand to Jeremy.
" Let's make us some coffee and let's talk about random shit " Sophie said while smiling.
" Na, stay here. Both of us know that I make better coffee than you do " Jeremy said as he stood up.
" Meanie! " Sophie answered as she slapped Jeremy's arm.
" Ow! That hurts! " Jeremy said in pain.
" Come here you " Jeremy added as he tried to catch Sophie.
Sophie ran as Jeremy chased her, both of them laughed as they have fun. Their laughter mixed with natures voice, making the chilly night comfortable for both of them.
