I’ll never forget the first time I met her.
Hair dark as the night sky,red eyes that shown brighter than rubies.
She was truly a sight to behold.
She was so beautiful, that I forgot where I was. Her smile was so cute and heart-warming that I forgot how I even ended up here. She soon spoke and that’s when I realized where I was, I was in.. a graveyard..?
“Heh, You might want to move, I don’t think that person’s spirit would appreciate you standing on their home.”
I broke out of my trans and look down, I realized what I was standing on, it was someones grave. I panicked and quickly moved.
“Ah! I-I’m sorry I didn’t realize that I was standing on a spirit’s home..?” I said with a hint of worry and confusion in my voice.
“It’s fine, I’ll just tell them you didn’t do it on purpose.” The girl said as she gave me a smile. “So what’s your name stranger?”
“Alois.”
“What a lovely name it really suits you.” The girl said I could feel the heat rising up to my face.
“U-uhm thank y-you, mind telling me your name..?” I said now feeling shy from her complement.
The girl placed her hand on her chin as if she was thinking of what her name was.
“Hmm..you may call me Mara.” She said.
“Mara..what a beautiful name.” I said to her complementing her back.
“Why thank you Alois. So, what brings you to my graveyard?” Curiosity in her voice as she asked me a question.
“Well..me and my friends where at this Halloween party in a park and we sort of got split up after running from the police when they came to kick us out of the park for being to loud.” I said in a sheepish tone. Explaining my dumb reason of how I ended up here.
“Ah, so you were the people making such a ruckus.” She said shaking her head.
“I’m sorry..” I said looking down,totally embarrassed about my story.
“No worries, now that the parties over the dead can now rest in peace.” Mara smiled.
“Mara do you own this graveyard?” I said looking back up.
“Why yes I do, I’ve been in charge of this place for years.”
“For years? Wait, what age did you take over this plac-“
“Ah! It’s almost sunrise, forgive me but I must go hope we can meet each other again!” Mara said in a hurry.
“Huh- hey wait!”
Right when I was going to start running after her I tripped over something and blacked out.
Damn it.
When I woke up I was still in the graveyard. Was it all a dream? No it couldn’t be, I’m still in the graveyard remember.
“Mara..”
I got up and looked around, no one. Not a single soul, well there’s many souls here but you get the point.
“I wonder where did she-“
“Hey Alois! Guys, I found him over here!”
I heard one of my friends shout my name. So, they were looking for me..
“Hey dude are you ok? We’ve been looking for you everywhere!”
“I-im fine I just-“
“Ah I shouldn’t ask you all these questions right now, come on let’s get out of this creepy place.”
I started walking out the yard with my friend. I looked back at the welcome sign and sighed.
“I hope we met again too.”
Aelia Caddle.
The most talkative girl in school.
No really, dose she ever shut up?
She’s always making conversation with people. It’s a crime to not see her running her mouth to someone she just met, while I’m far behind her trying not to engage into a conversation.
Aelia has been like this since we were 12, god it is a pain to be her best friend sometimes because of how..extroverted she is but how can I tell her to stop when her eyes sparkle so brightly when she starts talking. Especially when the conversation’s topic is something she loves.
So out going and full of life,and the most contagious smile ever.
She’s like the sun, always having a bright attitude and a shining smile.
Definitely the polar opposite of me.
But, I love her.
She’s like the sun to my moon. .

Selene Mintz, my best friend in the whole world!
She’s a great listener, and never tells me to stop talking or tells me I’m “getting annoying.”
I really don’t mean to talk a lot, I just can’t help it! I’m usually alone when I’m not with Selene. I tend to scare people off with my “super peppy”personality and I hardly see my parents because of there jobs so Selene is the person I talk to the most and she’s my only real friend.
I really appreciate her too!
She always has a calm demeanor and listens to all my stories. She even laughs at my jokes! When I talk, she has the sweetest smile on her face and urges me to continue when I think I was starting to talk to much. With a smile like hers, I can’t help but smile even brighter than I was before.
Around other people though..it’s a different story. She gets really quite and refuses to talk to anyone else but the people she’s close with. When talking to strangers, her voice gets really low and she starts to look anywhere but the persons face.
Don’t even get me started on school projects.
It’s safe to say that Selene is a true introvert.
In a way, she’s like the moon, calm,quiet, and mysterious.
A total opposite of me.
But, I love her.
She’s like the moon to my sun.
