gone like yesterday

Her nightmares had come back with vicious vengeance. Sometimes they were repeated, more often than not. Otherwise, she experienced a new one each night. By the time she awoke the dark dream seemed forgotten, but everyday aspects brought back details.

That morning she had aroused deciding if she wanted him or needed him. Her head pounded in rhythm with her heart and a few pants escaped her mouth. He was gone. She realized this shortly after calming. His side of the mattress, covered in sheets and considered a bed, was cold and the sheets lightly thrown back. Claws grabbed the thin fabric in a frantic attempt to keep control.

It wasn’t that Ever wasn’t used to Ezra leaving in the mornings, it was that she need someone to be there for her right now. Her dream had consisted of the strange falling feeling again. She needed the man’s warmth like an anchor on reality. He was her drug, and she needed a high dose that morning.

But alas, she couldn’t mope just like any other dawn. With one last inhale, Ever slipped from under the sheets and into the first dress she picked – a light blue, knee high gown with thick straps. After a quick rest outside the door, the silver hybrid padded to the stables.

Saphraine hadn’t been nearby for a few days, but quickly found the girl on her way. She mounted the golden stallion as soon as they reached the Miracles barn. It was silent in the early morning light except for the muted shuffles of other horses inside. The breeze felt refreshing on her auburn dusted face as Ever began to trot around one of the many pastures. Early morning chills didn’t faze her.
