The Broken Willow Tree Girl (B.R. & H.R )

chapter 8

·Hazel·

I yawned and got up, I looked out and saw the beautiful snow covered clearing, along with a path of footprints.. "huh?" I asked confused and shrugged. I climbed down the stairs and walked over to the Crystal clear pond. I smiled and heard the faint sound laughter..
I looked behind me, nothing, huh?

I just shrugged and got up. I looked into the forest and started walking behind the willow trees, I walked into the woods and smiled. I sat down by a creek that flowed into the blue pond. I walked across the rocks and hopped onto the other side. I breathed in and sighed happily, maybe being broken wasn't as bad as I thought. I heard a crack behind me and froze. I looked and saw Ashton smiling. "Ashton you scared me!" I said looking at him. "Sorry." He said looking down. "Hazel.." someone said behind me. I looked and saw brandon smiling. "Why is he here?" I asked Ashton. "He wouldn't stop crying." He said looking up at me with sad eyes. "Brandon looked horrible, his hair was all messed up and he stank. "Bro go take a shower." I said closing my nose. "I missed you." He said hugging me. "I swear if someone else knows I'm gonna ran away." I said looking at them.

"No don't!" Brandon cried out. "Please come home, everybody misses you!" He cried out.
"I'm sorry, I love it here, I can be with my mother's spirit and talk to her when I'm lonely." I wispered. "What?" Brandon said confused. "I was ment to be a broken girl, the broken willow tree girl." I said quietly. "No you are supposed to be hazel, a happy loving girl that will be my best Friend, girlfriend, wife." He said looking Into my eyes. Ashton was just staring at us. "I'm sorry but no." I said running towards the clearing. I hid in a hole in one of the willow trees. I blocked it off with an old plank from the tree house. I heard sobbing and a scream. "COME BACK!" Brandon yelled into the sky. I felt my heart snap once again.
I moved the plank a little and saw brandon on his knees crying in the snow. Ashton looked terrified, he just sat next to Brandon and watched him sob. "I'm sorry, I wispered and sat back in the hole. Every sob, tear he was making made myself had goosebumps.

"I'm sorry." I said louder. Curling into a ball. I heard the sob get further and further away and peeked again and saw them walking onto the path in the distance. I moved the plank and crawled out.

(Two mouths later)

I'm now 15! I said jumping around happily. "Yay!" I screamed and put my necklace from my mom on and smiled. "Happy birthday." The tree wispered. "Thanks mother." I said smiling. The ground was now blossoming with flowers, while the willows were pink with there gorgeous blossoms, I road my hover board around on the grass and fell on my butt, I laughed and got up, it was march now, I haven't seen or heard from anybody since i last saw brandon and Ashton. But I do feel bad.

I got back on my hover board and moved across the short grass, I saw a family of deer looking at me strange. I fell again and laughed, I picked it up and ran back to my tree house. I giggled and laid on my back looking at the beautiful sky. I didn't regret living here one bit, only one... because brandon Hunter and Ashton. But I got used to not being around people. I smiled and climbed back up and put my hover board on the shelf. I grabbed an Apple and ate it. There were a few Apple trees around along with cherry trees.
I pulled out a book and read it while nibbling on my Apple. I heard some voices walking away. I looked out my window to see Hunter, Brandon and Ashton walking to the path to their house. I waited till they disappeared and climbed down. I saw a box laying at the end of my ladder/stairs. It was a middle sized box. I looked at it and smiled.

I opened it and pulled out some shirts, shorts, jeans, a few books, and a stuffed dog.
I saw note and picked it up.

Hazel, we miss you dearly, I told hunter last mouth and we are never gonna tell anybody, not even our mom and your dad, some times we watch you laugh and play in the clearing, having a blast. It hurts to not have you in my arms, but hey if your happy I'm happy. Also happy 15th birthday baby girl!! We all love you, and I hope you love us back.

Love, Brandon, Hunter and little Ashton.

I smiled and picked out one last thing from the box, it was a picture all four of us. I smiled and took the box up to the tree house and folded the new cloths and put them under the blanket. I grabbed a thumb tack and put the note with my drawings. I put the picture on my shelf and smiled. I cuddled with the stuff dog and watched videos.

I smiled and smelled the dog, it smelled like blossoms. I stood up and looked out my window to see brandon standing at the end of the clearing looking at the willow trees.

(Kinda like this one but with four HUGE willow trees, and a small Crystal blue pond, and with bigger trees surrounding the clearing)

I smiled and watched as he walked away. I looked at my calendar and saw that his birthday was in October. Hunters and Ashton's were coming up.

Today was kind of a hot day, I took off my shirt and put on an old tank top and some old shorts. I grabbed my towel and sat it down. I walked to the sand and felt it in my feet, I smiled and walked into the warm water. I swam around and just stood there letting it take over me. I spent an hour in the Crystal clear pond and laid in the sand. The sun was hot today, I got back in and washed the sand off. I walked out and dried off.

I smiled and climbed back up. I really was free, I could do what ever I wanted and no one could boss me around. I could explore my land and be safe. A week ago a Fox family moved into the roots of one of the willow trees. I respect them, give them some apples and scrapes and they got used to me. I didn't mind them at all, they were cute.

I walked into the meadow/clearing and laid on my back giggling. In the corner of my eye i saw one of the Fox pups watching me. I smiled and say up. My hair was a mess, I let out a little bark and I yipped back. It crouched down and crawled towards me. I smiled and got on my belly. It rolled over and I rolled over to. It tilted its head and I tilted mine.

I saw and Apple on the ground and pushed it towards it, training to gain it's trust.
It smelled it and started licking it. Soon another pup came and started eating it.
I saw the pups parent's watching them from the hole. I got up and walked over to an Apple tree. The pups watched curiosity. I grabbed two and put them in front of the pups. They started eating the apples. I grabbed two more and slowly walked over to the parents, they growled at me but I crouched down and put the Apples down backing away. They looked confused but soon were munching happily on the apples. I climbed up my ladder and watched the foxes eating the apples.

I sighed happily and laid in my blankets looking out my window. I played on my phone and watched videos of kittens playing with a ball of yarn. I smiled and looked at the other willow tree next to me. I imagined me in a hammock swinging back and fourth.
I looked at my purse and dug into it. "Wait, I hid some money under my shoes!" I said happily. I grabbed the 100 bucks and left the other 500, I followed my path to my backyard and saw Christine sun tanning in a chair. I walked between my house on the other side and went to the nearest wall Mart, I found a nice looking hammock and I still had 50 bucks left so I got some water bottles and some other foods. I still had 20 bucks left. I just slipped it in my purse and carried the box with the hammock back to my tree house. I had the water bottles in a bag and some other foods I had. I walked into my backyard and into the forest.
