Even if I found a way.. Even if I would get out of here, I couldn’t leave without her.

“Xey! We’re here.. These are the trees.” These 4 trees were apart from every other tree in the wood, one of them had a white trunk, the other was black, the other was brown and one seemed to have a different sort of leaves on it. Although every part of the place looked the same, from each tree it was different. I still didn’t know what it meant. But there was something about these trees, something weird. Sure everything else was weird about this place but I knew this could give us the way out. After given a lot of thought we returned home because there was just reason as to why’d stay longer.

That night it was a full moon just like that night, the night I walked into this woods following Faith. I was leaning against the window, it was kind of a balcony but not exactly. I enjoyed being there most of the time, the fresh air, the calm trees dancing to the melodious wind and how you couldn’t see a distant land just darkness. But this night it was different, the distant land wasn’t dark, far far away, I saw a fire. I couldn’t really tell where it was from but it went through the path from the tree with the white trunk. Well, it wasn’t actually a path but that’s where it went through.

“Faith, Look at this.” I said immediately.

“What?” Walking to what seemed to be the balcony.

“See, the fire? Maybe there are other people there, who can help us get out.”

“B-but Xey, I don’t think i can..”

“i know you can and i won’t leave you here. Come with me Faith, I promise you i’ll be there with you.” I interrupted.

“I don’t know Xey, I haven’t been around people in a while. Maybe i’ll freak out or..”

“Just once, Give me a chance. Only once and if you wanna come back, i promise i’ll come back with you.”

“You promise you’ll come back?”

“I cross my heart.”

Wait, wait, All of this was happening and i didn’t know what i was saying. I’d come back with her? She wanted me to come back? Was i.. Was i-i in love with her? Whatever it was, It felt right and i might as well go with it.

“What are you waiting for? Lets go.”

We ran like it was the only thing to do, we were holding each others hand and i think we knew what this was. And suddenly with all these thoughts running my hand, Faith stopped. Her hands still captured in mine,

“Xey.. I can’t do this, if i came this long, it only because…”

And she stopped, she looked down and hot tears rolled down her pale cheeks. It was my first time to counter a moment like so, a girl confused, impatient yet innocent and i didn’t know what to do.
