It’s a breakthrough!!!

Took Sixx to the eye doctor on Tuesday which, of course, cost more than we were expecting.

So we were talking in the car and I was all “Ok, Dad paid the balance on your spring tuition, we can pick up your glasses on the 30th (she looks down at the receipt in her hands and was there to witness the negotiating on the price of said glasses and exam), now what personal supplies do you need to restock before you get back to school? We can do that after Xmas. And how much cash do you have left in your account? How much do you think you need for next semester?”

She’s quiet. I’m assuming she’s calculating her needs in her head. Instead she goes “Wow. I’m expensive.”

Me: “Ding ding ding ding!!!

Marauder gulls have been here; broken crosses pock the sand before the sun burns off the prints. The moon’s tug tossed the waves again and again like wet dice, looking for that lucky roll, but the sea is unknowable. Bottomless. It is where God hides from the long white blankness on the other side of the pinprick stars. Sand turrets trickle into dunes and the wind stings hard with flung grains but the sea is a secret being kept. The gulls divebomb and the bubbles break over and over in a crown of foam.

Dawn Breaks

“Heads up,” Jax tossed a bottle of the alcohol Adeline helped steal on the island toward her. Since the night they had discovered the intruder, Jax had barely slept. Between questioning the man and making sure his crew, not to mention Lyra, were okay, there was little time to get shut eye. But he’d never been so exhausted in his entire life. All of the magic he’d done and the adrenaline from catching the intruder had left him totally wiped. “Let’s call this breakfast. Just don’t tell Jasper we didn’t eat a real meal, okay?” The sun was rising slowly, bathing the deck in warm orange light. // @adelinedrxke
