Cursing to myself under my breath I continue to stumble along the path in the middle of the woods.
I was so angry that I didn't even pay attention to where I was going, which is why I didn't see the large rock a few feet in front of me and sure enough, the toe of my boot hit the rock and all that came from my mouth was a strangled sounding "Ah-" before I was laying flat on the ground with my face in the dirt.
Grumbling under my breath about my luck, (or lack of) I pushed myself up out of the dirt and walked to a tree stump and sat down with a "plop" before resting my pounding head in my freshly scraped hands.
I started to feel my anger fade away while warm tears of frustration took it's place.
How could they be such jackasses?!
Of course, this statement was referring to my camp mates, who happened to be my brother and his oh so wonderful girlfriend. ( Can you feel the sarcasm? Because I'm definitely using some sarcasm.)
My brother Daniel thought camping would be a great way for me and Jessica to bond, no distractions, no bathrooms, and no hiding places for me......nothing.
They started dating maybe five months ago and he swore to me that it was "true love." And I was ecstatic for him.......till I met her that is.
She was honestly very nice at first but it took only a couple of days before I saw her true character. She was controlling, jealous, possessive, and fake.
So since my brother and I were always pretty close growing up, he was pretty upset that we didn't get along right away so he decided a camping trip would be perfect......just the three of us.
It wasn't like I minded spending the time with Daniel at all but Jessica, lets just say that if an "accident" of sorts was to happen, well the woods is a great place to hide a body... hehehehe
But truthfully all had been going pretty well until now, Daniel had gone off to go grab some water from the creek and I was just sitting there when Jessica came over to me and asked causally "Hey, could you like disappear off into the woods or something? With you here I haven't had any alone time with Daniel and it's kinda pissing me off."
I swear I was so stunned I just looked up at her with my mouth opening and closing like a damn goldfish. Daniel's plan was definitely not working. At all.
I was so mad and embarrassed that I couldn't even say anything to her, I just stood up and stormed off, knocking her with my shoulder as I passed her.
That whole ordeal was a couple hours ago and now I'm now dirty, my knees and hands are scraped, and I'm most likely lost.
I just wanna go home......
UNKNOWN POV
I love running. The feel of the cool breeze around me and the feel and sound of my pads pounding the ground as I traveled mile after mile.
When I reached the creek I decided to take a quick dip to cool off, I was just stepping into the clear blue water when I picked up a scent in the wind. Whatever it was, it smelled amazing... What the hell could that be?
Lifting my nose high in the air I took a few deep breaths. It took me a couple minutes before I caught the scent again flowing in the breeze and this time I took off after it before I lost it again.
I followed my nose for maybe a mile until the air surrounding me was filled with this new, unknown, beautiful smell. Can a smell be beautiful? I know that sounds bizarre but it truly seemed beautiful to me.
I slowed to a walk when I saw that the trees were starting to thin out and it seemed that I was coming to a path, I moved forward trying to keep to the shadows so I wouldn't be seen.
I felt a shiver run down my spin as I looked around at my surroundings from behind my tree.
Tree...random rock....girl....another tree-wait girl??
My eyes shot back to the beautiful girl sitting on the tree stump on the opposite side of the path.
What is she doing so far in the woods alone? Doesn't she know that's not safe?
Honestly I don't know why my first thoughts were about her safety, I didn't know who she was, why was it important to me?
While pondering this, it suddenly hit me. The scent was coming from her, it was that girl! Then another light bulb went off...oh no..no no no...
No....she couldn't be-
I couldn't even finish my thought because just at that moment I saw she had tears in her eyes and I suddenly felt furious and murderous towards the jerk who caused them.
Oh hell! You don't even know why she's upset you idiot, you don't even know her!
The voice in my head was scolding. I shook my head and was about to protest when my nose hit a small rock and it went rolling into the path.
Her head snapped in my direction and my breath caught.
CRAP!
