In my sweet memories, there was a night. The setting was a beach. Characters, there were 4. There i was lying on the sand with Ben and Alice in between us. The 4th was Charlie humming to himself a song stuck in his head while strolling blissfully along the shoreline. Close-by was the party of people still rousing from the reverie of the past hours. The morning ocean breeze freezing us from the tips of our hair to the ends of our naked feet. I whisper an inside joke into Alice's ear, making her chuckle her infectious laugh which I had personally seen to have stolen several hearts since the day we met a long time ago. Lying down, I could just imagine Ben's with-held violent urges to kill knowing that I had amused 'his' girl and I could only smile. He tried his own attempt at the same and I had to clench my teeth to stifle my laughter when Alice raised two of her dainty fingers into the sky and shaped the letter L. How could you not love her? Suddenly we hear Charlie speak/slurring words a few meters away.
"Guys, you wanna go back. I need a drink so badly, man."
"Charlie, firstly honey, you're already drunk..." Alice starts, and I couldn't resist completing her sentence.
"And secondly, we're over here. Dude, you're talking to a tree."
And there we lay together enjoying the last remaining darkness, welcoming the new year's sun.
