"Love Everlasting"

~ PART 7: Town & Country Lanes

Once Michael had picked up his rucksack after getting changed, he walked back out on the way to work. 

He entered work, he worked his shift for a few Hours, but Winnie was spying on him all day, going into the Shop to work till the very end.

She watched round the corner from behind another shop across the road she was sat behind. The shop was across from the Shop Michael worked in, she watched his every move until he finished work.

She had her head down in a good book, and forgot for a while to keep track of when he finished work. She looked around the corner, keeping on her lookout as she was still hiding from her search party.

She looked back and dropped her book surprised to see Michael was stood there leaning on the side of the wooden shop looking down at her, she jumped as she dropped her Book.

Michael looked down at Winnie as he leaned his body against the shop he tilted his head to the side and looked down at her with his hands in his pockets.

Winnie: Oh my god! How long have you been stood there? You scared me...

Michael: You've been spying on me?  He smiled.

Winnie: No... She clearly had been, Michael raised one eyebrow he didn't believe her.

Michael: Winnie you can't keep running away from this.

Winnie: I'm not running...

Michael: So then what are you doing exactly?

Winnie stood up and faced Michael.

Winnie: Leave me alone. She was about to walk away from him when Michael grabbed her arm and pulled her down onto the ground with him.

Michael: Shhhhh... 

Winnie: What are you doi... 

Winnie lets out a faint scream as Michael put his whole hand over her mouth to quieten her and stops her from finishing her sentence. 

He had noticed people out looking for her from around the side of the Shop, and he didn't want anyone finding her. He slowly took his hand from her mouth and just put one finger on her lips. He looked her deep into her eyes shushed her. 

They both peaked around the corner of the shop, and saw Winnie's search party out looking for her.

Michael turned to look at Winnie.

Michael: Be honest with me... do you want to go back?

Winnie: She paused for a moment, and looked deep into his eyes.
What do you think... She whispered quietly.

Michael looked shocked & smirked.

He knew that she didn't want to go back, after reading her Diary there wasn't a chance she wanted to, why would she want to live that kind of life.

Michael stood up when they disappeared.

Michael put his hand out and she looked at it slightly scared of touching a black mans hands. Something in her mind told her to do it, because she knew deep down inside she really wanted him.

She loved the thrill and excitement of touching his hands with knowing that it was something she should not be doing, the more she knew she shouldn't do it, the more she wanted to do it.

Michael: Please... don't be scared of me...

Winnie finally decided to grab Michael's hand and he helped her up.

Winnie stared into his eyes which they locked together.

All she could see was deep dark black holes she couldn't take her eyes off of them as she just got lost into the depths of them.

Winnie turned away suddenly and broke the gaze, she looked down at her feet real sad.
