"The End"

I breathe a sigh of relief

Finally finished

My stomach growls in response


I grin sheepishly to myself

So I may have neglected my diet lately for the sake of my manuscript

But I do think it's well worth it

Running my fingers through my hair

I grab my jacket and head out the door

Keys swinging on my index finger

Sunshine beaming down warm on my skin

Birds chirping a cheerful tune

Earth Café

My favorite place

"Café latte please"

The comforting smell of freshly ground coffee washes over me

And I close my eyes with a smile


I collide into someone

My coffee spills and I'm utterly horrified

Cheeks flared in embarrassment as I blurt out "I'm so- "

Her eyes emerald green // His eyes sapphire blue

Her hair a beautiful gold // His hair dark as night

Hands outstretched in an awkward apology

Both wrists adorning the same exact mark

// "We have the same tattoo" I murmur

"What made you choose to put a crescent moon on your wrist?" I ask //

// "It's a long story" I say with a laugh

"Well I'd love to hear it sometime. I'm Romulus." //

// "Luna"

"It's a pleasure to meet you."
