bee boy

chapter 40

He really loves you...

"Y/n? Toby?" You hear Wills voice a few minutes later, "are you two here?"

You turn around to see Will coming through the tree wall, as you called it.

"Yeah, we're here," you call back.

"I thought i'd see you two here," he says, "they want you back home,"

"Also, he's a bit mad," he adds, "they're trying to calm him down but im not sure how well its going,"

"Whys he mad?" Toby asks.

"He heard what minx said about texting her girl," you fill in the blanks.

"Yeah," he says.

"Ugh, i dont care anymore," you say getting up and holding out your hand for toby to take.

You hand him your hoodie to tie around his face again and you help him.

"Y/n- where are you?" He asks as he reaches his arms out for you.

"Um-" will says confused but then he understands, "y/n, its ok,"

"He doesnt know how to get here," you say, "a promise is a promise,"

"Y/n, honestly, its fine," will snaps.

You step back a second and look around. You hated it when people snap or get mad at you.

You took a little look around and before anything else could happen, you ran.

You ran quicker than you ever had before, making your way through the tree wall and through the field onto the road.

When you were sure that none of them were following you, you slowed down a bit trying to catch your breath.

You made your way to the beach and sat down with your arms around your legs.

Around half an hour later, two people walked onto the beach however you stayed still, staring off into the distance across the ocean. The sun had been setting for around five minutes now and had casted a red-ish glow across the horrison.

"Y/n?" A voice you distinguish as karls asks.

"Is that you?" Alex was there as well.

You choose to ignore them in hopes they would leave you alone to wallow in self-pity, to no luck.

The two of them come and sit next to you, one on either side.

"He didnt mean anything by it," karl says.

"Yeah, he came home after you left, panicking that he had lost you and that no one would ever find you again," alex says from your right.

"He's really worried," Karl says.

"How awkward would it be if it wasnt me?" You ask, trying to stiffle a chuckle.

"What do you mean?" Karl asks.

"If it wasnt me sat here and instead was some random lady," you couldnt hold it in anymore, by now you had burst out laughing.
