LUNAR CYCLES
chapter update
chapter fourteen: third quarter
She tugged her glasses off her nose with a shallow sigh. There was no point in keeping them on her face—spray covered the lenses in a fine mist, a layer of water just thick enough to blur everything important anyway. "And you know for a fact that no one comes around here this time of day?" her eyes slid to the left to find his face, despite the sheet of blurred colors it was now.
"Yeah. It's off-season for tourists and the weather forecast for today was terrible. Everyone's in school right now, anyways," Jacob shrugged as he bobbed his head in a nod. Then, a bit quickly, he added, "If you wanna try for another day, that's totally cool. We don't have to do this."
Exhaling through her nostrils, Morgan glanced down at the surface of the water. Black and brown under the light from the clouds, pushed outward toward the sea through the river, away from the falls overhead. Thus far, every excursion into salt water had earned her another dream-like vision. But she'd agreed to do this. She wanted to do this. She wanted, more than anything, to be comfortable as herself around someone who wasn't a family member. And, after all, wasn't Jacob the ideal someone?
So, Morgan shook her head. "No, I wanna do it. Just can't be too careful."
