Instead, he just said from behind, " Fine. Go then. I won't stop you. But, are you sure that you want to go back? " Shiver ran down my spine when he said that. It was creepy after all. I didn't turn back and without paying too much attention to what the little boy said, I kept walking till I came back to the tree.
I was a bit shocked to see that Jack was there waiting. I thought that he would have gone or something. We aren't friends after all!
"Where were you?! Do you think it's safe to wander around around here?!! It's dangerous! You got me worried! I thought that he caught you.. " He said as he pointed at me with his finger in anger. I was taken away by his words. 'Worried?! For me?!! 'I thought as I looked at him in surprise.
Without answering anything I asked him, " So? Found a place to stay or something? I mean, it's already night and really cold, so, we probably can't go back to the town. We are quite far away already. And along with that, he knows where I live. " I said to him making it look like I was explaining some really important stuff that made no sense.
" I know. With that said, he knows where I live too. Probably for a longer time then yours. " He said as he tried to look away but he couldn't. I don't know why really, but it really feels like we know each other for a really long time. But then I remind myself, if we did, we wouldn't have been enemies.
" I found a place right there at the corner of where the forests end. I actually found a blanket there as well, seemed like travellers were going through there and forgot it or somewhere. So, you want to go? " He asked me. I said, " Duh! Of course! I'm so cold right now. I have to stay somewhere which is definitely not under a tree. " I said as I rolled my eyes crossing my arms.
"I see where this is going. But ok. Whatever. Let's just head over there. " He said. "Fine! " Was my reply as we headed over to where he said. While following him, it felt like I was going to spend my whole life out here walking in the dark. I could barely even say anything clearly! "Uhm... Are you sure that we are going the right way? " I asked him with a weird expression on my face that really seemed like I was doubting him.
"Yea! You have to trust me. I know where we are going. " He said trying to show that hw knows everything.
"Such a show off! " I said in a low whisper barely loud enough for me to hear myself.
"Hey! I heard that! I'm not a show off! Stop spitting nonsense stupid! " He said in a harsh voice more like screaming for no reason at all.
But, that's not what I was thinking about at the moment. What I was thinking about was, ' How did he hear that?! Even I couldn't! ' as we kept walking somewhere I didn't know about. It was seriously so dark I couldn't see a thing!
After a bit, we reached where he said we could take shelter for a night. "A..... Cave? " I asked him as I continued, " This. Is your 'place' you were talking about? " I asked him in a questionnaire way.
"Well, yeah. Isn't it cool? " He said. "Cool? I replied with an expression of disbelief on my face. " This! You think is cool? " I asked him again to make sure that I was right. "Yes! " He replied.
