KEIRA'S POV
The charcoal gray clouds covered Linkwood town and the woods hills. The frosty wind hit my small pale face and my fiery orange hair. Sending goosebumps to my arms making my sunset orange hair to stand up. I placed my forest green eyes on my sisters and my babysitter Sherry; she was helping my dad taking care of us since Mom was on a business trip. Our Mom is a very busy women so we don't get to see her often. My Dad too but we see him more than we ever see Mom. Dad was gathering up wood and Sherry was taking care of Scarlett and Coco; our full grown german shepherd. While I stood outside waiting for my Dad. I stood up and went to look for him because I was not a patient person especially when your 8. I went the same direction from where I saw my Father go into and continued walking. My small feet lead me so far away from our cottage I couldn't see it anymore.
"Dad! Where are you?!" I screamed at the top of my lungs when I heard a sticks snap in half.
Immediately fear rushed through my veins. I stepped closer to where I heard the snap of the stick hoping it was my Dad. Then behind a small bush close by I saw someone hiding. He had his knees up to his chin and a chestnut brown coat. I stepped closer, seeing he was around my age.
"Are you okay?" I asked in an audible gentle voice. I stepped closer to get a better perspective of him. He had coconut brown hair and cloud gray eyes with light tan skin. And as I mentioned before he did looked around my age.
"Leave me alone." he said looking at me with cold harsh eyes; as if he could see my soul and my deepest secrets.He gave me chills. So I looked away wondering what I should do next. I couldn't leave him here. It wasn't safe.
"It isn't safe here." I said stepping closer to him. Facing him. He just looked away and became silent. I wasn't good talking with kids around my age but Scarlett was. What would Scarlett do? I thought.
"How long have you been out here alone?" I said politely. He then faced my way.
"2 days." He said touching his stomach. Then hearing his stomach growling for food. I felt bad for him he did look pale and a bit fragile.
"My Dad's cottage is that way" I said pointing the direction I had come from."We have a lot of food. You could come over to our cottage and you could eat s'mores with us. My Dad always makes s'mores on the last day we get to be here. We can also get you back home." I smiled hoping he would come along with me.
"Plus, you don't want a wolves or Bears to eat you? Do you? They come at night and It looks to me that it getting pretty dark." I added pointing towards the sky; hoping it would scare him.
"No." He said looking down. Then he looked up. Stood up and faced him.
"I'll take that as a yes. Now let's go it's this way." I said while walking towards where I had came from. As he walked beside me.
"What's your name?" I said looking at him hoping he wouldn't look at me with cold harsh eyes.
"Logan Hastings." He said looking at me with a confused face.
"Um. My name is Keira. How old are you?" I asked.
"8. How about you?" He said looking at me with a funny face this time.
"Me too....What's with the funny face's" I said making a confused face like the one he had done a second ago.
"Oh.. sorry." He said turning away. He became silent the whole way there and so did I. Finally, at the end we arrived to our destination. My babysitter and my Dad were arguing. When after a couple of seconds Scarlett pointed us out.
"Honey, where were you we looked all around you? And who is this?" he said hugging me tightly then looking at Logan who was "hiding" behind.
"That's Logan I found him in the woods. Can he stay? He hasn't eaten in two days, Dad? Come on Dad. Please." I said putting my hands together begging.
"Okay." He said then looking towards Logan and asking him "Did you get lost playing in the woods? Where you camping?" Logan looked at me like I knew the answer, but I just interrupted my Dad.
"Don't you think we should feed our guest since he hasn't eaten in two days. Maybe you can ask him this questions after s'mores right Dad?" I said looking at our babysitter to convince him to ask him questions later.
"Yeah, Charlie. I'll go get the chocolate, marshmallows and graham crackers." She said in an eager voice. "We can all tell scary stories around the campfire tonight!." She added.
"Yess!" said Scarlett who was right next to Sherry. Who seemed pretty chill that Logan was here.
We had all made s'mores and sat around the campfire telling scary spooky stories{Except for Logan}. Dad did not take an eye away from Logan. We all sat around their eating for about one hour and 30 minutes. When Scarlett and Dad had gone to sleep and Sherry was looking over us from a chair in front the cottage she had brought from inside. Sherry was falling asleep when after a 5 min. she did actually fell asleep in the chair. Logan and I sat there silently. When I decided to ask him.
"Did you like the s'mores and stories?"
"Yeah, the stories weren't scary, though."He said like he wasn't afraid of monsters that would eat him.
"What they were very scary my friend." I said crossing my arms and looking at him with a mad face. Then he started giggling.
"What are you giggling about?" I said in a mad voice.
"You make a funny face when you're mad." I said looking at me with warm eyes.
"No, I don't." I said while looking away adding" Either way it's not like you can make a scarier story than ours." I added smirking.
"Oh yes, I can." he said in a confident and loud voice.
"Okay then tell me a very very very scary story."
"Far away lived a Family of wolves they had a son. The family had great power and the uncle wolf was very jealous of Dad wolf. So he decided to kill the whole family he did kill the Mom and Dad but not their son because he had enough time escape. The Uncle wolf still lurks around the woods trying to find the small wolf. To grab him and tear him into pieces,"
"That was not scary that scary Logan,"I said looking at him as he stared straight into the woods waiting for some scary wolf to pop out.
"The Uncle is scary but the story is sad. Now am going to sleep. Are you coming? You can sleep on my bed I'll sleep on the couch today."
"Okay." he said looking down and heading towards the cottage.
"What happened to the son wolf Logan? Is he okay?" I asked in a yawn.
"He was found by a beautiful girl and is safe." He said looking at me with a funny face. I just smiled leading him to my bed giving him a blanket and grabbing mine. And laying in the couch in my room. With the baby blue soft blanket over me. I closed my eyes hoping I wouldn't have nightmares.
*8*hours later
I woke up to the bright warm sun hitting my face I looked over to bed, but Logan wasn't there. I thought he was in the bathroom but when I went to go check. He wasn't there either. I looked all over the cottage, but he was nowhere to be found. I checked and screamed his name out loud to the woods and there was no answer. It was like he was never here.
