Lost

Chapter 14

Belle's POV

Everything is a blur. This is the second time this has happened- when I can't recall a single thing because I have no idea what's going on. For all I know, this could be a dream, just one big nightmare. But I know for a fact that this is all real. I may not know what's going on, or where I'm off to, but I do know that the pain inside me is real. That kind of pain can't be fake, because it comes from the heart...

I toss and turn around, feeling oddly uncomfortable-well, more than usual that is. My hands automatically feel the area around me, and that's when I know that I am not in bed.

Is this...grass? It can't be! I'd have to be...

Half a second later I am wide awake and I find myself in contact with a bee. Yes, there's a bee right on the edge of my nose.

"AHHHHHHH!!!!! GET IT OFF!!" My high pitch scream fills the morning sky while I try to slap the bee off my nose with all my might. I'd imagine I looked a little bit like a panicked seal.

"Ugh!!!" When the bee is finally gone, and hopefully far, far away, I finally let out a loud, exasperated groan followed by a disturbed shudder.

Ewww...I hate bugs...

I sit up from my place in the grass and rub my eyes repeatedly until the eye crust is gone. My gaze drifts down to my white dress, now covered in black dirt and encrusted in mud.

Oh no! I'm all dirty...and I have nowhere to wash up...nowhere to go.

I''m all alone again and this time no one is around to help, because I really am all alone.

I don't like being all alone.

I don't want to be alone.

Why do these thigns keep happening?

I didn't want any of this....

I just want....

I can feel the tears that I've been holding back for days now, just pouring out of me.

I just want to find my granny; she's all i have left. That's all I want now.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There's something you must realize: What you want isn't what you need. It sounds dumb, sure. But I wish I would have known, or at least taken the thought into consideration before I let myself get caught up in all this mess. Maybe then I would have let sanity taken its grip on my mind. Because for the most part, what I wanted was going to get me into trouble. At the time I craved the old life I used to have, but it was gone now and I needed to let go. Everything I needed was about 2 miles behind me. I wanted to be with my grandmother. But was it really worth risking everything? I had no idea, not even the slightest idea, of where I was. I hadn't eaten in hours. Most importantly, I didn't know the dangers out there, and I definitely didn't know that those dangers were so nearby. If I knew, then I could have avoided my misfortunes to come all together...
