The Sky .

Happy Belated Birthday LaDayna . 



The sky bleeds brilliant reds. 
The cool wind embraces her face as she digs her feet into the sand. 
A single tear rolls down her cheek as she whispers softly to the person on the phone.

"No. “ “It’s okay. "  “I understand. “ “I'm fine.”

She lets the phone slip from her fingers letting the sand consume it.
The wind picks up messing up her carefully placed hair. 
She rips out the tight bun leaving her hair at the mercy of the wind.  
She looks at her beautiful white dress and sighs.
Stood up. Should have known it was too good to be true.
She tells herself trying to stop the pain in her heart.

Not caring anymore she sits down on the sand.
Somehow the grainy sand mixed with the pearly white of her dress was beautiful.
She laughs.  
She grabs a handful of sand and slowly lets it trickle down to her dress.
She watches with amusement.

Lost in her own world she fails to hear the trotting of the white horse before her.
"LaDayna?” A familiar voice calls. 
She looks up with shock as her Prince looks at her with amusement.

"Playing with sand are we?”

LaDayna crosses her arms and looks away.
 "You said you couldn't make it.” she harshly whispers.
The Prince gently laughs and kneels in front of her . 
He takes her face in his hands and gently has her face him. 
Anger and pain light up her eyes.

The Prince frowns "I'm sorry dear that was a bad joke.”
"But I promised you that I will be by your side always.”
“There is nothing that would keep me away from you on this special day.”

"I love you." He says and gently kisses her forehead.

LaDayna's cheeks turn red and her eyes light up.
She punches the prince's arm "You jerk.” "I love you too.”
They laugh as they embrace.

Then the Prince picks up LaDayna and places her on the white horse.
"Let's go were late." He says.
She raises an eyebrow "And whose fault is that?”
"Sorry." He says with a sheepish grin.

The sky bleeds brilliant reds as they ride away.
The cool wind embraces them as they embark on a new journey.
They sink their feet in the sand as they bind their hands.

Happily Ever After.
