I was very tempted to live in my closet for the rest of my life.

You see... there was a possible criminal in my room currently....and I was trapped in my closet....with out a shirt.

Well duh Rosa...he was eventually going to wake up!

Yeah but...I was hoping it would be when I was fully clothed!

Meh. Not my problem.

Actually it is! Cause your me! And I'm you!

Oh.

I sighed at the nerve my conscience had as I hunted for a hoodie that I could wear.

Oooh! Perfect!

I pulled on the tie-dye extra large hoodie over my head and stood up from the closet floor.

All right, now just...turn the handle.

Um. No. I'm good. I can just call Caleb and ask him to come home.

Drat. My phone is out there.

"Are you going to come out?" A deep voice said from the other side of the door. I froze, shivers running down my spine.

Oh so now he speaks English! Not when he was choking me-OH GOD!

HE WAS CHOKING ME! THATS WHY MY THROAT HURTS! OHMYGOODLORDOFHEAVEN!

I swallowed painfully and slowly turned the handle. "Promise you won't try to kill me again?" I nervously asked.
A deep chuckle filled my ears. "Promise. Mostly because you seem to have misplaced my dagger."

Oh yeah! I hid the dagger under my dresser so I didn't accidentally trip over it and end up dead.

*cough cough* Clumsy Mc Clementine *cough cough*

I slowly opened the door a crack to see the room empty. I frowned and stepped out fully, looking around for Mr Murderer.

Wow...I am rolling with the nick-names today.

"Boo." A soft voice whispered in my ear. I screamed bloody murder (which probably wasn't the best for my throat) and dove under the bed, curling up into a ball.

I heard laughter echoing around my room as a pair of booted feet walked into my line of vision.

"Relax." The boy said, crouching down and peering down at me like an animal in a zoo.

He flashed me a reassuring smile and stretched out a hand for me to take.

Pha-ha-ha. No.

He rolled his eyes and tilted his head. "I promise I won't hurt you. Why would I hurt my savior?"

My pride got bumped up a few notches and I slowly placed my hand in his callused one.

He pulled me to my feet with ease and I stumbled slightly before his hand darted out to my shoulder to steady me.

"Thanks." I mumbled, meeting his eyes shyly.

Who-lly-cow.

His eyes were wow.

There were like nothing I have ever seen!!

They were brilliant blue, but if I tilted my head a certain way, I saw flashes of green and gold like the feathers of a raven!

I could get lost in them forever.

If, ya know, he was wearing a shirt.

My cheeks tinged pink and I nervously stepped away from him. "Erm....want me to get you a shirt while your...clothes are in the wash?" I asked nervously, not meeting his face.

I didn't quite know what to call his leather garbs, so I added it to the list of what to ask him if I ever got the chance.

Confusion flashed across his face momentarily before it cleared and he shrugged, stuffing his hands in his pockets. "I'm fine." He said.

Gaauauauauauauagh.

"No but like...can you put on a shirt?" I tried, fiddling with the sleeves of my hoodie.

I glanced up to see a small smirk grow on his face. "Why? Scared of a guy with no shirt?"

"Yeah!"

My eyes widened and I blushed red like a tomato. Dear God I was a loss cause.

The boy chuckled and waved a hand, leaning up against my desk and crossing his arms.

I took that as a signal to go get the shirt so I sprinted from my room into surprisingly less hot air.

Baxter's POV-
I don't know what evoked me to act like I did just now.

I'm blaming it on blood loss.

I ran a hand down my face and pursed my lips, thinking.

So I'm on Terria.
In the room of a Terriaian girl.
The girl healed me.
The girl doesn't know who or what I am or where I come from. Or else I'd be dead.
She didn't seem to mind that I had choked her to near death just 4 short hours ago.
And she looked cute when she blushed.

Wait. What?

I shook my head and dragged a hand threw my hair.

I need to get back to Dinama.
But how?
I paced the blue room as my thoughts moved and danced like wild fire.

I must have lost my portal stone in the fight, so I was basically stuck until I found another Demi-Jumper here on Terria.

Which I highly doubt.

We Demi-Jumpers avoided Terria because of how no one knew who we were. There were some of us that had to stay here because of protocol, so all I need to do is find them, then get the hell away from here and back to Dinama before the war was lost.

Ok, great. Now I just need a way to contact the closest Demi-Jumper.
Which could take a very long time.

"So um-I didn't know your size so I got a bunch."
My thoughts came to a stop as I turned to see the small Terriaian stumbling threw the door, her arms full of their strange shirts. I fought the smirk that was eager to make an appearance.

Well, until I can contact a Demi-Jumper, I am pretty sure this girl can provide plenty of entertainment.

----------------------------------------
Ok so now! Finally! They meet!
Yay!!!!!!
I'm pretty proud of how I made their reactions go. So yeah. TULLY OUT!
