Clear Blue Moon

First Meet

The night sky was a dark blue with the stars twinkling in a rhythm, like a song. I lay there on the blanket in the meadow by my house looking at the stars when I heard a rustling nearby. I jump to my feet looking around trying to see what made noise. As I was looking around I got a shiver down my spine. When I turned around I saw a tall talk figure standing in front of me. I started backing away, as I was backing up my blanket bunched up and I fell. Still looking up at the dark figure, he stepped into the moonlight and I got a really good look.

He was about six feet tall, pitch black hair down to his shoulders with the lightest baby blue eyes that sparkled under the moon and they complimented his pale white skin. He knelt beside me and started asking me questions. "Is that your real hair color? " I looked at him for a few seconds. With a shaky voice I said "Yes, it is, why do you want to know? " He started to reach out and touch my hair when he did I flinched. "Don't be afraid I won't hurt you. " His voice was deep and soft and sounded like he had an Irish accent . While he was running his fingers through my hair repeatedly I started relaxing.

I closed my hazel eyes. He whispered in my ear, "Your hair is so soft and wavy, like waves in the ocean after a storm; I haven't seen hair like this since I was in Ireland. I'll see you again soon." I opened my eyes and he was gone. Sitting there leaning on my elbows my mind was racing trying to figure out if I just dreamt the whole thing. I picked up my blanket and started walking back to the house. I had a feeling that I was being watched. When I got to the door the feeling got stronger. I hurried and opened the door; went in and locked it quickly. It was almost nine o'clock. I went upstairs turned on the radio to 96.5 FM my favorite band "Stormy" was playing. I started the water to take a shower. As I was getting undressed the feeling of being watched got stronger. I looked around as to find somebody there . I put my robe on and went to the window and looked outside, I didn't see anything . I went and took my shower and went to bed. I couldn't stop thinking about that tall, dark man I saw in the meadow, until I fell asleep.
