~ Excerpt ~
Knox reaches
over and pushes the braid that’s lying over my shoulder to my back and leans
over to kiss my exposed shoulder. My eyes close and I want to wrap our time up
here in a jar and carry it with me everywhere I go. Everything in this moment
is perfect. I’m happy and content which hasn’t happened in some time. I’m
always so guarded around everyone except Summer. The reason behind my wing
tattoos is because when I finally decided to get out from under Mom and Dad I
wanted to find my wings and be my own person. I wanted to grow, change and find
my way in life.
“Jas,” Knox says
so low it was barely audible.
I open my eyes
to the sound of his voice only to feel a tickle on my right shoulder. I don’t
move an inch because I know what it is. Out of the corner of my eye I can see a
beautiful black butterfly with four spots, white and then blending into purple,
on each side of the wings. The end of the wings are all jagged but the
intensity of the colors draw away from them.
Knox is able to
slip away as the butterfly just sits perched on my shoulder, lightly fluttering
her wings. I hear the sound of Knox’s camera snapping pictures as he walks
around capturing different angles. I turn my head inch by inch so I can get a
better look at the beauty sitting on my shoulder.
A lady who’s
wearing a uniform with a patch that shows that she works here comes over to my
other side and wipes something cool on the top of my left hand which is resting
on my thigh. When she’s finishes she simply walks away. What the hell
was that about?
Minutes later
the butterfly sitting on my shoulder flies away and another tiny white
butterfly lands on the top of my right hand in the exact spot that the employee
rubbed whatever it was on my skin.
Knox takes his
seat beside me again. “It’s sugar water. The butterflies love it.” He nods to
the sign in front of the waterfall. “I read it on that.” Knox adds after I give
him a look of disbelief that he would know such a fact.
I lift my hand
in the air and the butterfly takes off to a nearby flower. I place my hand on
Knox’s leg and give it a little squeeze. “Thank you for bringing me here.”
He places his
large hand on top of mine, “You’re welcome, Beautiful. I’m glad you like it.”
