Ethereal
By: Kaylee Wild
I pull my long silky thick hair into a somewhat tight pony, and then I pull my black demi shorts up around my waist, and add a loose grey tank top. It was smooth and comfortable yet it had a somewht eligant feauture to it. I go over to my mirror and I look tall and thin but not to thin i hve some meat on my bones. Slowly and delicately Iput my mascara on my one eye, then move over to the other. Trying to keep the persicion I had on the other eye. All of a sudden my whole desk starts viberating! I urgently look donw and saw my phone lite up.
"Hey, you ready?- Chandler" the text message read.
"Umm yeah. I'll be at the dock at 11 p.m." i texted back.
I finished doing my mascara and skipped over to the stair well and speedly raced down the stairs and jumped off at the second last stair. It lead right into the the living roo, where my family ws gathered watching the 10 o'clock news. By know there was only fifteen minutes left. I walked over to the fruit bowl sitting on the coffee table. I snatched up an apple and dusted it off on my shirt. I took bite as i walked towards the door to slip on my Toms. Right before I could open the door my mom looked at me.
"Allina where do you think you're going at this hour?" My mother said with a strien voice.
"Withhhhhhh Chandlerrrrrrr" I somewhat shouted half sang with glee and excitment. Before my mom could say a word I ran out the door. I knew she wouldn't be mad she absoulty adores Chandler, and has full trust in him.
I started walking toward the dock eating my apple.Te sky was an aray of colours from blues to organge. It wasn't all that cold out, but there was that warm summer breeze that went through my hair. The stars were finally coming out. I could tell they were stars because they were twinkling. I finished my apple so I ucked it into the bushes to my right. Its different when its dark. People gathered around tiny little flame laughing telling stories and enjoying life.
I approached the dock slowly. I see a Chandler sitting there look so perfect under the light of the moon. I walked over to where he was sitting. I sat down beside him and hung my legs off the edge of the dock and looked at my feet. It was awkward silence at first but then he broke the silience.
"Why are you dressed like a criminal?" he looked atme with a half smile.
"Pfft nice one. I thought we were gonna do some crazy adventrous stuff," I snickered and looked into his blue eyes that twinkled like the stars.
"Fair enough. So I was thinking that we could prank our siblings since there always getting in our way. That wont take long it would probably ust be after twelve therefore we can go Ken Dodging. te final thing will be a suprise," he smiled and looked into my eyes.
"What is 'Ken Dodging'?" I questioned.
"You'll see my love," He said and leaned into me and lightlu kissed my forehead. His lips were warm against my head. It filled me with a thrill and a loss of breath for a moment. He got up and I stood up also. He was much taller then me and looked very musclar.
"Okay so my family is all in bed already so we'll have to be quiet. Right inside the door there is a bucket filled with shoes. You'll grab that while I run up to my room to get a duffle bag. Then we'll go to your house and get your brothers shoes," He said with confiednce.
We walked up the small hill and down a turned left. His cabin was right on the start of the culdisac on the outside. Mine was just across the street. We slowly open the door and go in. Chandler runs up to his room up in the loft. I stand in the porch patiently. I look around theres giant beams of log running all along the roif and bif wood posts at the entrence, and then windows galore there has to be over twenty! I hear someone come down the stairs my heart starts racing. Oh god i hope its Chandler! There coming around the corner fast and all of a sudden they pop out. I flinch but its only Chandler. I take a deep breath.
