The day had passed without too much issue though me and home staring at each other for hours really started to get on Wally's last nerve and Home and I were sent to “time out”. In other words I was sent back to my house and Home was sent somewhere within Wally’s house, which you thought was unfair considering he was the house that Wally lived in which meant it really wasn’t a punishment for Home but it was for you so you did what anyone in your situation would…Made a cup of tea with some apple slices and watched the next six to seven episodes of Welcome Home, ignoring the ringing of the phone from the living room. You knew Wally wasn’t going to bed happy with you in the morning but it didn’t matter because you had a job to and wouldn’t be able to see Wally or Home till later that afternoon, which as you sat there watching Welcome Home and drinking your cup of tea sounded wonderful but as you were wondering around looking around for the clearing that the client ask for a photo of you found yourself wanting to be with Wally, working on his front yard as he sat in the window and Home made you cups of tea every now and then.
It was then caught up in your thoughts that you stumbled upon the clearing that you were looking for… but it looked different. Not a bed different no, no, not at all. The last time you had seem the clearing it was dim in colour but still beaterful, the trees were dyeing and the river was dark in away, sinister even but now the clearing was bright and full of life there was deer spring about, flowers were in full bloom so there were bees buzzing about, the fish in what you thought was the river were as colourful as the sounding crystals that glimmered in the sunlight. In fact the crystals were everywhere. In the trees, in the centre of the flowers, Even some of the trees had crystallised fruit hanging off them. To say you were confused was a severe understatement but nevertheless you took the photos and walked further into the clearing.
You had expected the deer to run away into the surrounding woods but no, they just continued about their business eating grass or springing around the clearing. Once you had reached the middle of the clearing you sat down and looked up at the sky letting your thoughts wander down into the darkest parts of your mind. Why is it that after I remembered Wally and the others the world has become brighter like I could remember it or was it Home that was the reason for the world becoming brighter…
Thought it was true that you know things about Wally and Home that no one else did, no one else was supposed to know, you know that you weren't supposed to know but you did and you hated it. Deep down you know that the fact that you know all you did put you in danger and that it could mean that one day you were going to die by either Wally’s or Home’s hands. After all, even Wally needed to be reset every now and then and the devil knows that you had missed your last few. You also know that Home was not happy about that.
Your mind faded to black the soft brees had become your lullaby and you had fallen into a peaceful sleep a deer's head resting upon your lap and the other deer had come and curled up next to you, some of the other animals came and curled up with the deer keeping you warm but also keeping your mind at ease. For hours you laid there sleeping in and amongst the deer and other woodland animals, no dreams came but you thought you could feel the presence of Home lingering around the clearing.
“ My Darling, oh how I hate to disturb you but you must wake up… - “
You rolled over on the soft mattress bearing your head under the nice warm covers, taking a deep breath. As you were taking the soft smell of wild flowers and hairspray, you felt two soft hands gentilly rock you back and forth, slowly you woke up and peeked out from under the warm covers only to be meet with the smiling face of Wally Darling and the mischievous face of Home both looking down at you.
“ oh My Darling Neighbour are you okay? We’re so sorry for waking you but we needed to know that you were ok and that you weren't hurt by the animals “
Your eyes widened slightly as your eyes rested on Homes face, so he was in the clearing with me… where's my camera. When the thought had finally crossed your mind it was ushed away by the tender feeling of Wally’s hand cupping your cheek and forcing all of your attention to Wally’s ever piercing eyes.“ are you ok My Darling Neighbour, you seem distracted and your face is a little red. Have you court a cold, oh no “
Gentilly you shock you head and proceeded to say something but Wally shhed you by putting a soft finger to your lips, you couldn’t look away seemingly captured by the small diamonds the shone within the deeps of Wally’s black eyes and it was laying there staring into those beautiful black eyes that the pain came.
