Is There Hope

Chapter 11 Woods, Noah, and me

I went downstairs to eat breakfast today. After I decided to go to the woods aka my special spot, I needed to get away for a while. After what happened yesterday I just wanted to get my mind off it. Everything is so confusing first everyone's confessions then Yukio kissing me! I don't know what to do, maybe if mom was still here she would have the answer for me.
"I thought you'd be here." Said someone from behind. I turned my head it was Noah!
I waved at him and smile. "What are you doing here?" I write.
"I kinda followed you, I wanted to see if you were okay, you were acting weird at breakfast. Did something happen?" He asked. I can't tell him it was because Yukio kissed me!
"No nothing." I write and smile happily.
"Hailee..." he sits down next to me, "I can tell something is bothering you, and if you don't want to talk about it then I won't make you, but ill sit with you until you feel better." He says. He noticed no way! That's impossible! It's unlikely! But he did. He puts his hand on top of my head and ruffs up my hair.
"So you noticed." I write.
"Ya, others may not but I can tell, after all, I better because am in love with you." He says.
"Thanks." I write
"For what?" Noah asks.
"For this, staying by my side, and noticing no one has ever seen right through me before, so thanks Noah." I write and smile at him.
"No problem Hailee am just happy to help." He says politely.
He hugged me! Then did something as Yukio. He kisses me! I sit there frozen. Then our lips slowly part. His lips are soft. Why am I thinking about this!
"Come on let's go home." He says with a smile on his face.
I nod yes. He helps me up. Why again I left to forget one kiss only to receive another!
As we walk through the woods many animals came over to play with me.
"Animals really love you don't they!" He says.
I nod yes smiling happily. The truth is I have a special power no one knows about only father. I can understand animals meaning I can speak to them, and they can speak to me and understand what they say.
"Well, I guess they understand you don't they." He says.
"Animals have always been there for me the truth is when my parents died I lived in these woods for a while, if not for the help of the woodland animals I would have died long ago." I write.
"interesting thanks for telling me this Hailee it's nice to know something about you." He says
We make it home and I go upstairs to go to bed. I fall asleep thinking about how soft Noah's lips are and thinking about this hole day of the WOODS, NOAH, AND ME.......
