“Tonight will be my last sunset. You will never see me again.” I whispered under my breath.
“What’s wrong, boy?” Maddie asked me, giving me a comforting rub on my head. I leaned into her scratch, staring off into the bright, pink swirls.
“I’ll send someone down to take care of you. So you won’t have to watch the sky alone.” I promised.
Maddie’s eyebrows furrowed together and I stared up into he...
“Tonight will be our last sunset. You will never see me again,” Luke whispered, his gaze never leaving the setting sun.
If this was it then maybe it was for the best. If Luke was lost maybe I should let him find his own way home. Maybe he doesn’t want to be found.
“If it’s what you want, then fine,” I said, keeping my gaze on the colorful clouds, the setting sun in the background. If he wanted t...
“Tonight will be our last sunset,” Killian’s lips murmur against mine. “After this, you’ll never see me again.”

“Why do you write like you’re running out of time?” She asked, putting her arms on his shoulders. “Come back to bed, that would be enough.”
“Shh....
“Tonight will be our last sunset. You will never see me again.”
“Oh my god, you are so dramatic, you know that?” Bubbly laughter escaped my throat as I began pushing each of my cuticles back with my thumbnail.
Alec hovered above both me and the table as I kept my focus solely on my nails. The clanging of the bell set atop the door broke my concentration, as my next joke was interrupted my vario...
“Tonight will be our last sunset. You will never see me again,” she says softly. I see her eyes start to water, mine do the same.
We stand on the sand, staring into the vast horizon.
“Please don’t leave.” I whisper, stroking her hair.
“I’m sorry, my love. I have to. Your life is on the line as long as I’m around. I’m doing this to protect you, I couldn’t bear to see you die because of me.”
“I’d r...
"Tonight will be our last sunset. You will never see me again. Or the night." he whispers in her ear as the sun dips behind the horizon.
A chill rushes through her body. Never seeing the stars or moon again? How could that be? It should be impossible. But she knows him, and she knows nothing is impossible for him, especially pertaining to the night.

“What? Why do you say that? Why are you always so dramatic?” The small unusual girl sitting next to it asked, almost flippant, trying to hide her concern. Her white hair shone gold in the sunset, her large pupil-less eyes reflected pearlescent. Her desert t...
“Tonight will be our last sunset. You will never see me again.”
The words were barely a whisper, yet I hear them echo through my mind like a shout of warning.
I will never see him again, I repeat in my head.
