Long-lasting

Submitted to Contest #237

It was a Saturday evening. My mother had dragged me to one event where all important members of the neighbouring packs, circles and covens were obliged to attend. It was summer, and therefore hosted outside in a garden full of roses, lilies and tulips. The sun was slowly setting, painting the sky red, yellow, violet, and dark blue. A beautiful, colourful picture painted with nature’s brush. I stirred the champagne in my glass, breathing out a listless breath.

Submitted to Contest #133

'Gosh... how come making chocolates is such a messy work?' I groaned as I looked at this mess of white and dark chocolate in front of me. 'Maybe if you weren't so chaotic there would be more chocolate in the chocolate moulds than in your face,' Elijah, my best friend, laughed as he wiped some of the chocolate off my face. 'Hmph, I'm gonna act like I didn't hear that!' I mumbled as I crossed my arms, which I regretted instantly because now I had chocolaty handprints on my arms. 'Yeah, sure,' he chuckled before he dripped some red food colo...
