I vacantly sit alone, watching the little pond in the darkness of the night. I don't know why I even bothered. Nothing would ever cleanse my soul.
I watch the early dew drip from the weeping willow's leaves and fall, sparkling, into the pond.
I am almost in tears, about to stand and storm off, when I feel the wind tousling my hair and a loud crash.
I smiled gleefully. He had come.
He appeared before me smiling, silver scales gleaming in the moonlight.
I ran to him and swung my arms around his long neck. I was finally free.
Author notes
I think this one's better than my first attempt, 'Interesting Book'. Tell me what you think.

I don't think Interesting Book was bad, but I do like this one better. Maybe it's just the fantasy element, though. I see you won a trophy! Right on.
