I never thought that watching the sunrise would answer all my dreams... I guess they're actually just stupid high school aspirations... My stupid wants and desires that pretty much every high school boy wants, but as I sat there watching the last sunrise of the summer, she walked out. Her hair was the color of the rising sun, and her skin was deep ebony. She didn't say a word as she walked toward me. Her hair tied back in a ponytail up on her head, and her eyes the color of the midnight sky. I wasn't able to speak around her, she was lean...
It was four years ago, when I met him... I had gone to summer camp, with one of my close friends, Aphrodite McGee.
