I woke up again with a hot rag being placed gently on my forehead. I looked at the boys face. He was sitting on the bed, next to me. He seemed nice, and very concerned about me. He looked at me. His eyes looked very pretty and bright in the fire light. They were almost a shade of purple. His black hair fell into his eyes, and he always brushed it away. I groaned and i shifted body positions. He stood up and set the clothe and hot water on the wooden table next to the bed.
"Here" he said, propping up the pillow behind me. I felt immeasurable pain in my legs as i forced myself to sit up. I was finally able to say something.
"What.....What..Happened to me?" i asked. He pulled the blanket higher onto my body.
"I, uh, found you in the snow." he said. I looked into his face, and i could tell that his must be a little awkward for him.
"You were freezing and i couldn't get a heart beat because you were wearing too many jackets.." he continued.
"I picked you up, and you were freezing to the bone. I carried you to my home." he said. "My Mother had me place you in her room, and she began to take off some of your jackets and began to wrap your body." he blushed and he probably felt awkward for talking about it.
"You were so cold and so passed out that Mom had to just wrap you to keep you from breaking something, or ruining something in your body." he finished. I layed there and tried to keep my eyes open.
"What's your name?" i asked him. He smiled at me, he had the prettiest smile.
"Noah, Noah Fullbuster." He said. I heard more footsteps from the hallway and suddenly the door open and a tiny set of eyes peered at me from around the corner of the bedpost. They were another set of bright blue eyes, and black hair pulled back into pig-tails. She squirmed onto the bed, and layed down next to me. She looked just like Noah, but she was smaller.
"Alex, don't hurt her." Noah said. Alex looked at me. She was unusually skinny and had these large eyes that just sparkled with delight.
"What her name, Noah?" she asked him. Noah looked at me, and smiled.
"What is your name?" he asked. I made a weak smile.
"Poppy, Poppy is my name." i said.
