It was late on Friday afternoon when I decided to go on a walk in the forest behind my dorm building. I walked in the woods almost everyday to clear my mind after work.

As I trudged through the leaves and thorns I noticed a bridge stretching across the creek. I know for a fact that it wasn't there yesterday because I walk in the part very often. I made my way to the bridge and decided to walk over to the other side of the creek.

When I made my way to the other side and there was a bright flash of light and I was in someplace with trees made of gold. The trunks were made of gold, the branches were made of gold, and leaves made of golden flakes were fluttering down all around me. I noticed a figure behind a tree reading a book.

  "Excuse me, but where am I?" I ask and move in front of him.

  He had black hair and bright green eyes. His hair was wavy but short on the sides and longer on the top where it is gelled back.

  "You are in the Land of Gold, my name is Prince Wesley." He said standing up and brushing off his pants.

  "Hello, my name is not princess Ambrily." I said.

  "It is very nice to meet you. Would you like to join me on a walk not princess Ambrily?" He said.

  "I would love to."

  As we began walking down the small trail, Wesley grabbed my hand. My hand was tiny in comparison to his, but it fit perfectly. I decided to look up at the treetops. The leaves were falling because it was fall and the golden leaves glittered as they fluttered down to the ground. Then out of nowhere a water droplet fell on my forehead. Wesley must have felt one too because he started to walk a little faster.

  "Would you like to go back to my house so we can get out of this rain." He said slowing down so I could catch up.

  "Yeah, that would be fine." I said as I began walking faster. I was very short compared to him so one of his steps was four of mine.

  "Here get on my back." He said coming to a stop so I could hop on.

  As soon as I jumped on his back he starting running. I had my arms flung around his neck so I wouldn't fall off. The rain was pouring now and hit was hitting me on my arms and forehead. Wesley was running so fast that the rain sort of stung as it hit my arms. He came to a halt in front of a large log cabin and opened the door. He sat me down on the wooden floors.

  "This isn't my house, this is my family's log cabin. It was closer than the castle and the rain was starting to pour harder." Wesley said.

  "This is fine, thank you." I said.

  "I'll go see if there is any extra clothes in any of the rooms."

  "Okay, thank you."

  I decided to busy myself and look at the pictures surrounding me on the walls. Most of the pictures were of a younger Wesley. When he was younger his eyes were just as green maybe even greener but his hair was grown out to a little over his ears. His hair wasn't really black in these pictures, it was more of a light brown.

  "I dye my hair black." Wesley says coming up behind me and scaring the living daylights out of me.

  "You scared me." I said.
