Save
I forced myself to breathe deeply; perhaps they would have vanished. Perhaps I’d been imagining them because Brae was gone and I was scared without him, and now that he was back I’d feel safe enough again that they would go away. Perhaps it was just paint or something and would have been washed out by the sea spray earlier. I breathed again, feeling much calmer and then, slowly, opened my eyes.
