Camilla.

My hands caressed Lean's hair as he slept peacefully on my lap.

We were sitting at the gazebo near the lake with his head on my lap and a book in my hand.
Even though my eyes were focused on the words on the book but my mind was filled with previous night's events.

Yesterday, I confessed my feelings to him, even though he didn't say it back but I was happy he didn't avoid me.

We went back to the main house late and after having dinner, he made love to me for hours and that was enough for me. He wouldn't say it in words that he loved me but he showed me in different ways.

This morning after the breakfast we decided to roam around the farm. We had a horse ride for few hours and then we decided relax near the lake.

We talked for a few time and then he fell alseep in my lap while I read a book. Cool breeze hit my face as the smell of fresh water filled my nostrils.

I peered down at Lean who was knocked out completely as a smile etched my face.

Placing a small kiss on his forehead, I noticed him scrunching his eyebrows and shoved his face into my waist and I chuckled at his tactics and went back to reading.

The past few days have been the best days in my entire life and I am really enjoying here. Emily, Caleb and Celine have become so close to me despite Leander warning me to stay away from Caleb. But in a short time, we have become great friends.

Leander is really possessive about me and it is clearly evident this morning when Caleb assisted me in getting on the horse back. He went all barbaric when Caleb touched my back and shoved hime aside. I don't know whether he is acting to be possessive but I like this side of Lean.

Something squeaked behind the bushes disturbing my day dream. I noticed some movements in between the bushes and I gazed at Leander who was sound asleep.

Lifting his head off my lap, I placed it above the book, without disturbing his sleep. I tiptoed  towards the bushes to know what is behind the bushes that's making noise.

I shrieked when a rabbit jumped out of the bushes and ran off to the woods. Curiosity peeked inside and I followed the rabbit into the woods.

Carelessly I followed the rabbit without where I was going actually. I was just a few metres behind the rabbit and I was smiling following it.

At one point ,it disappeared and I stood there not knowing where it went. I got disappointed, when I couldn't get my hands on that rabbit.

Not finding the rabbit anywhere, I decided to go back disappointed. But as I turned around to go back to the lake side, I realised I was lost.

I was deep into the woods and everything looked the same. Tall trees, creepy branches, I gulp down in fear. I don't know where I came from.

Is it right or left? Why did I go behind the rabbit and now I am stuck in this forest? How long will it take Leander to notice my absence?

" Lean." I whimpered as my heart started to beat fast and my breath became uneven.

Not knowing what to do I crouched down on the ground as tears filled my eyes. Soon the clouds became darker and within seconds it started raining.

I hate it, when it rains. It brings back horrible memories. I tried to focus on my breathing but with the rain drops hitting my body it was difficult to breathe.

My anxiety peeked up as it was raining cats and dogs. I couldn't breathe and my heartbeat was rising by each second.

Sobbing I covered my ears to stop the voices that are chanting in my mind.
