The next morning Annabelle woke with a smile! She closed her eyes and shouted, "I'm freeeeeee!"
She was feeling better than ever, she could do what she wants. Then someone talked."Was it necessary to shout like that?" Annabelle was shocked, who was talking? How did that person know about this house? "Who is there? Show yourself, NOW!" She was hoping that is wasn't dean. She was scared.
A boy dropped from the ceiling, and stood in front of her. He was the most beautiful boy Annabelle has ever seen. He had blonde hair, blue eyes that sparkled in the sun. He had the most beautiful smile that made her feel at home. "I'm Peter. Why are you in my house and who are you?"
Annabelle was shocked how could he talk to her like that, this was her and her fathers house. She didn't trust him fully and decided not to give him her full name. "My name is Anna and this is my house. The question is actually what you are doing here?"
Peter smirked, "I live on a nearby farm, we breed horses and this is where I come to relax. I found it seven years ago and come here very often."
"But you are no longer welcome here. This is now my house. I have run away from my aunt and uncle's home, they were horrible and now I am living here."
Peter laughed so hard he almost fell to the ground. "You... Living here... You've got to be joking!"
Annabelle had no expression on her face. She looked very serious, "Do I look like I'm joking?"Peter saw that she meant it and asked, "Dear Anna, how do you suppose you are going to live here. Without food, water and all the basic necessities?" Anna never really though about what he just said. How is she going to survive here? She suddenly realises that her stomach was growling. She hasn't eaten in quite a while.
Peter hears her stomach and laughs, "Luckily I always bring treats when I come here." Annabelle shyly looks in his eyes and only comes to reality when he hands her a packet of crisps. " Thanks, sorry what is your name again?"
Peter laughed, "It's Peter. Funny how people start warming up to you when you have food." Annabelle blushes. She has been a bit moody with him.
"Okay Peter, let's start over. What do you say. I'll start. My name is Annabelle but call me Anna. I ran away... I think you got that part? And now I plan on living here with no idea of how I'm going to survive!" Peter sat and looked at Anna. "What? Do I have crisps on my face?"
"No," Peter replied. "You're just one of the most beautiful girls I've ever seen. Annabelle blushed, no boy has ever complimented her like Peter just did. It made her feel all squirmy inside. She was used to Deans attitude and bulling.
Annabelle made as if she didn't just hear Peter flirt with her, "So Peter tell me more about you."
"Well I'm eighteen and like climbing trees. I like riding horses and I like eating sweets." Annabelle almost choked on her Coke Peter handed her. "How can you like sweets, look at that body!" Peter laughed, "This Anna," and he lifted his shirt "You get from working out!"
Annabelle blushed when she realised the stupid question she has just asked. "Of course! Peter, I should've thought about bringing some entertainment with me? I sense that it's going to become boring."
"I don't think you've thought this through have you Anna?" "No, I haven't" Anna realised that she was stupid for not thinking this through.
"But dear Anna, in this time I will be spending with you in your treehouse you will learn that you should never fear when Peter is here!" Peter pulled his backpack closer and took out a Nintendo, two cans of Coke and a chicken sandwich. "This Annabelle is your entertainment and dinner. Bona Petit Mademoiselle."
Annabelle laughed at his quirky personality. She loved that he makes her smile.
"Annabelle, I can't wait until tomorrow, I'm going to show you something that will take your breath away." And with that Peter hopped out of the tree house and walked away.
Annabelle was left falling asleep with the thought of what tomorrow would bring.
