Miss Peregrine's POV

I walked down to the village, admiring the blue ocean. It rippled gently and whales sprayed water into the air.

I look down at my feet, when I'm not around the children that's where my eyes are usually. The semi-hard ground is dotted with white flowers.

When I arrive, I venture to the small store. And, as a look up, I see a wonderfully familiar face.

"Bailee?" I say, checking her eyes for any sign of contacts.

"Alma?"

"Oh my bird, it is you," I say rushing to take her in my arms. She hesitantly wraps her arms around my back, letting go of her bags.

Bailee and I were great friends. I thought she was dead. I left Miss Avocet's loop and never saw her again.

"Dear, I thought you were dead, I missed you so," I tell her.

"It's alright, I'm here now," She says hugging me tighter.

I usher her up to the house and make her a cup of tea.

I sit down to the kitchen table with her.

"How have you been?" She asks, beaming.

My face falls and I, again, look at the floor.

"Well, relatively well, you?" I say, my voice wavering.

"Alma, are you really okay?" She pushes on. I assure her I am fine and she nods, still with a suspicious look on her face.

We talk until the children come back from the beach, and I introduce her. Everyone just calls her Miss Vala. I ask if she qants to stay here for a while.

"Oh Alma, I couldn't. I would get in your way and be a pain," She says.

"No you wouldn't! We'd love for you to stay!" I say firmly.

She nods okay. I take her up to the guest bedroom where she puts her things. I leave her to settle in and begin making dinner for everyone.

Soon we settle at the dinner table.

"Miss P, will Miss Vala stay for a very long time?" Claire asks.

"Well..." I stutter, unsure.

"We'll see," Bailee says, winking.

And that is how I got my best friend back.

A/n okay so that was boring and short. Hopefully there will be more interesting ones soon. onepeculiarchild has been the best help with this story, supporting me every step of the way. Thank you onepeculiarchild !!!
