The Beach, 4:30 a.m. till late morning
Tuesday, August 28th, 2007 07:15 amIsabel had been tempted to just turn off the alarm when it went off at 4:00 OMGit'sfreakingearly a.m. But the lure of a lunar eclipse was a powerful draw and Isabel slowly made her way down to the beach to watch the show.
In some ways, watching the stars was difficult. Isabel couldn't help but think of Max and Michael, somewhere, out there where she couldn't look out for them. Sitting alone on the beach, it was hard to keep up the cheerful façade she'd been maintaining since she came back to Fandom. With no reason to hide, Isabel cried for everything that had been lost.
Eventually, her tears stopped and Isabel fell back on her blanket, watching as the darkened moon faded from view as the eastern sky grew brighter. Even after a year and a half, sunrises over the ocean were still something special, so she stayed, watching as the sun rose into the sky.
With no classes, there was no better way to spend a morning then sitting on the beach watching the waves.
