First Morning.

The sun radiated a warm glow, showers of heat floating down. Ebony smiled as the heat touched her face, arms, and legs. It felt more than wonderful to be outside, the forest just a mile away from her house.
Ebony turned toward the town, only to run into a petite, brunette girl with a small smile on her lips.
"Good morning, Ebony" She greeted.
"Oh. Good morning to you too, Cattelie. I didn't know you came out this early. Doesn't your family keep you cooped up 'till noon?" Ebony asked, smirking. Though Cattelie was a good friend of hers, she couldn't help but tease the girl.
Cattelie's smiled dropped, "You know better than anyone that that wasn't my parents." She said.
"Oh, right, of course. I'm sorry. That was your dearest Ian keeping you in so long." Ebony's expression then turned from playful to sympathetic. "How long will he be gone?"
"A few more months. Though, I have to admit, it feels like we've been apart for years." Cattelie sighed, pain clear in her voice.
