Ch. 16 Green SeasA Chapter by theladygraceling
Will's room is green.
Green walls. Green curtains. Green bed sheets. Green armchairs. Green lamps. And a fuzzy green carpet in front of the closet. Sometimes when it's raining and when it's dark, it kind of looks like it's molding and it's gross, but it calms me to be inside of it, like lying in a big sea of green. There's a field behind mine and Will's houses. There's an old picket fence that's easy to climb over if you know where to step. In the winter it's an endless blanket of snow. In the spring it's spotted with flowers
In the fall
But in the summer
The three of us used to lie down in the grass and watch the clouds. And when the wind blew the grass rolled like waves, and it was also like lying in a big sea of green. Will sits down in a big, green armchair with a rounded back and Mike Wazowski's face on it. I flop onto the bed and curl up in the green sheets. The bed smells like him, like soap, cologne, and fabric softener. He turns on the radio but I can't pay attention longer than a couple minutes. I just close my eyes and lose myself in all the green. © 2014 theladygracelingAuthor's Note
