Nathan stared at the clock as it turned midnight. It was the only sound he could hear in the stillness of the manor. Most likely he was the only one still awake (again). All the others had either gone to sleep or was out to practice or to keep lookouts.
This wouldn't be the first night that Nathan had stayed up till so late, while working on his novel. He had started it about 2 weeks ago and ever since then, he hadn't managed to have a good night's slee, often staying up till 3 or 4 in the morning before leaving his ideas and either going to have a quick sleep before morning or to go out and walk for a while.
The Mask has Nathan had named it, was about a girl who wished she could have a different life than the housekeeping life that she currently obtained. By taking the suggestion of a good friend and fellow work person, Gwen, she went and bought herself a mask that would change her identity forever. Nathan had gotten the idea during a small discussion group that he and some other elders had. Well only him and another, considering that they were the only 2 people in the entire place that enjoyed being serious (although Nathan was mostly faking it to hide his "secret").
Resting his head on his hands, Nathan slowly closed his eyes. It wouldn't hurt to rest for a while. The story could be finished later. Sleep was what Nathan was going to get now and nobody was going to disturb him.
