When Alice Left Wonderland

Curiosity often leads to trouble #17

We've been walking for sometime but neither one of us has said a word I don't like when its too quiet

"It's nice day today" I say really Alice that's the best you could come up with

"Yes the weather is nice here" he comments

"What's the weather like where you live?"

"Unpredictable" is all he says

"I bet your happy to go home though" I say and look up at him but he almost looks sad

"Yes in a way" he quickly stones his face where you can't read him "it's just not the same place I grew up in"

"Why not move then?"

"That would be nice but there's people who need me there"

"Your family?"

He takes a shaky breath "no I don't have any family left" I feel tears forming in my eyes because that sounds like me it's probably why I feel close to him we are the same

I grab his and interlocking are fingers, he looks down at our hand and smiles I can see he's blushing a tad it's pretty cute

"Maybe that's why we understand each other even though we barley know on an other is because we are the same in a way" I say he looks speechless I see he wants to say something but can't look for the right words

"You are something Alice" he whispers I smirk

"Why do you call me Alice instead of Ali like everyone else" I smirk

"Because I'm not like everyone else and neither are you"

"I'm nothing special" I say to myself hoping he didn't hear me but of course he does, he stops walking and turns to look at me our hands still interlocked he puts his other hand on my cheek and looks at me like he's trying to see into my soul

"Don't ever say that your not special you are the bravest, gifted, and kindest person I've ever met and don't let anyone tell you different" he say putting a piece of hair behind my ear

"You just met me" I say staring up at him

"I've known you your whole life" he breaths out

I finally look down and shake my head laughing a little

"It's true" he says stubbornly

"O yeah? Prove it. I'm curious to see how well you know me" I challenge him with a laugh

"Curiosity often leads to trouble" he smirks then adds "You love peppermint" he says a matter of fact

I roll my eyes "everyone loves peppermint"

"You would rather eat dessert than eat food." I look at him "you love to dance anytime there's music you can't be still"

"Lots of girls like to dance" I say even though everything he said was true

" you absolutely love animals you would adopt every animal in the world if you could. You love the sky in the daytime you used to  insist we look up at the clouds all day and you would say what the clouds looked like and at night you just stare at the stars like it was magical" I look down not saying anything he continues "you have a scar on the side of your finger where you sliced it on some thorns" he could of easily saw it even though it's very faint I don't even know how I got it

"Let's talk about something else" I say trying to change the subject

"I do know you Alice" he says

"You just know little details that most people enjoy you don't know me. Okay?" I say annoyed

"Your so stubborn sometimes" he mutters tugging his hair

"I'm stubborn? listen here I just met you and your acting like we been friends for years"

"We have" he insist

"Your crazy" I tell him

"One person craziness is another person reality" he smirks

"What does that even mean" this guy is crazy I take my hand out of his "I'm going I hope you have a safe trip back to where every you came from goodbye Kurt" I say as I walk away

"Wait Alice" I hear him say but I keep walking not looking back
