20 - Down To The Second

The Giraffe

It was just their, it had no trace of movement which made me wonder how long it had been since she left it here.

I grabbed it and ran to my car to go back home, I don't know why I hadn't left anything here for her I guess I didn't think she'd leave anything else.

I got home and sat on the couch the tiny giraffe in my hand I stare at it for a second thinking about what I could leave, all I could really think about was one thing which I needed so desperately to put in words for only her to see.

I grab a paper sitting at the table.

It takes me some time to put all of it together but I think its exactly how I want it to be.

I fold the paper and walk into my room looking around quietly so I don't wake them up, and I find something I would always see Peyton with its not so big but just enough to were she'd recognize.

I don't know how long it will take for her to see it but I needed it to just be there now just incase she stopped by tomorrow.

I got into my car driving back to the park, their seemed to be something happening because their was more people at the park now yet it was late so I ran to leave the thing were I found the giraffe making sure it was going to stay up I glance one more time at it before running back to my car and driving back home.

Peyton's POV

It was kind of chilly out here

I was currently at the park Jed had something to do which he apparently was late to now because I wasn't being quick enough.

I couldn't be part of anything he was doing but I wasn't allowed to stay back when he was outdoing his "thing"

I was staring out at the sky taking a deep breath wanting nothing more than to be in Bryson's arms.

I look to my side watching someone run, I stare deep into were the person went landing on a car, not just any car but his car. I wanted nothing more than to stop him from leaving and jump into his arms but I knew id face the consequences of either dyeing or watching Jed take the one person whos made me happy. I watch him pull away and leave. I realized were he was and I powerwalk to it.

I look at the one place Id left the 2 items in before and their it was, my small emergency pouch.

I hold it feeling a tear leave my eye, for awhile I had hoped he had found the things I had left him and now I knew he had.

I tuck the pouch somewhere it wouldn't be noticeable and slowly walk back to we're I originally was.

For once I can't wait to get back.
