Love Unspoken

Even though it was still dark out, there was just enough light for her to make out the guy's face.

The moment their eyes locked, it was like time hit the pause button, and even the air seemed to freeze. The cold wind whipped around, making Quinn feel like her blood had turned to ice. Her body wouldn't listen, and she tumbled right off the horse.

Alexander, quick as a cat, grabbed her waist and hoisted her back up.

Neither of them said a word, maybe because they didn't know what to say, or maybe because anything they could say would just sound dumb.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

They were so close, but the breeze felt like an invisible wall between them.

After what felt like forever, Quinn snapped out of it. She yanked the reins and brought the horse to a stop.

With her back to Alexander, she tightened her grip on the reins and said, "Get off."

"Quinn," Alexander said softly.

"I said get off!" Quinn yelled.

Alexander went quiet. He stared at her back for a few seconds before saying in a rough voice, "I don't know the way."

"Not my problem," Quinn shot back coldly.

There was a faint sigh from behind her, and then the weight on the horse lightened as Alexander got off.

Quinn didn't even glance at him. She grabbed the reins and turned the horse around, taking off at a gallop. The horse ran like it was feeding off her panic.

Alexander just stood there, watching her get smaller and smaller until she disappeared into the dawn.

He stepped on the dead grass, feeling totally alone.

As the sky got brighter, the morning light hit him. He was just in a shirt, with mud smeared on his face. He looked like a mess.

He took a couple of steps, but the pain in his leg was too much, so he plopped down right there.

After falling twice, he was pretty sure he had a fracture.

He looked out at the endless prairie, a self-mocking smile tugging at his lips.

Quinn kept galloping, her mind a total mess.

Running into Alexander in a place like this was something she couldn't have even dreamed of. She never thought it was him right behind her. Turning around and seeing Alexander's all-too-familiar face, Quinn felt a shock of disbelief, as if she'd seen a ghost.

After running for what felt like forever, the horse finally brought Quinn, still in shock, onto the highway. There were already people on the road, and Quinn felt as if she had just woken up from a dream.

A car followed behind her, and soon it caught up, screeching to a halt in front of her, blocking her path.

Quinn had to stop. She frowned at the car, thinking it looked kinda familiar.

Moments later, the car door opened. Before the person inside could get out, two dogs rushed out. They ran to her feet, wagging their tails and making happy noises. Seeing the two dogs, Quinn's eyes blurred for a moment.

She jumped off the horse, and Buddy immediately jumped up, pouncing on her.

Quinn hugged Buddy, its front legs resting on her shoulders, her thoughts drifting back to old memories. She hadn't expected them to grow so big.

Seeing the two dogs, Quinn felt a sense of disorientation, as if a lifetime had passed.

Before she left, Buddy and Liberty were not even half their current size.

"Mrs. Kennedy!" Sean called out.

He was just as excited to see her. In his rush to get out of the car, he fell and scraped his knee on the concrete, wincing in pain.

But he didn't care about that. He got up and rushed towards Quinn.
