Changing (Gilbert Blythe)

Chapter Two; The Boy

The cold water touched the hot skin of Wendy, making it even more cold. She pressed the white towel on her face so it could dry. When she removed the towel she saw her whitish eyes, white skin and dark freckles. When she turned around she saw her purple dress lying on her neatly crafted bed.

Today was the second school day. She rather stayed under the blossom tree reading a book, writing music or painting an image that popes up. Sadly there is no blossom left on the blossom tree. Fall is coming, after that winter.

She puts her leather brown boots on and grabs her school supplies. She is greeted by her mother and father. Her father looks happy. Wendy wondered why - of all the people - he smiled. The thought was quickly buried away when she saw her brother walk out of the mansion without saying goodbye. She ran outside and jumps on Klaus his back.

"Going away without saying goodbye?" She jumps of his back and Klaus turns around to see his little sister.

"I'm sorry Wendy," says he and gives her a tight hug. They part and Klaus walks away leaving the girl behind.

When Wendy left the mansion to go to school she had a wonderful melody in her head. She imagined it being a wonderful song you can lose your thoughts in. When she walked past the wonderful trees she had the feeling something was wrong. And a few seconds after the thought in her mind a boy came out of the tree's. The boy had dirty blonde hair and was a lot taller than Wendy.

"Can I help you?" Wendy said trying to sound polite and without fear. But it failed terribly. Her voice was shaky and weak

"You are a bad dog" the boy said while walking closer to the blond girl. Wendy backs of with each step he comes towards her. She stumbles over a branch and falls on the ground.

"Excuse me?" this time her voice wasn't weak, it was strong and confident. The boy was about to response but was interrupted by another boy.

"Hey, Billy" Billy turned around. The boy walks slowly. He looked puzzled.

"How is it going," he continued walking and looked from Wendy to Billy and back at wendy. When the boy was close to Billy he stopped.

"Hey, Gilbert," Billy looked around if there were more people. When he realized there weren't he looked back at Gilbert.

"Man it's, um it's good to be back," Gilbert didn't look at Wendy. He looked intense and full of anger at Billy. He couldn't place the anger. He didn't even know the girl, but was somehow intrigued by her.

"Yeah, um, welcome home," Billy wasn't sure what to say. He felt afraid of the few inches taller boy. Wendy slowly got up. Looking at the boys. Fair didn't abb away, it was still there. Wendy doesn't know the boys and is still puzzled by Billy.

"So you guys, playing a game or something, right?" He asked Billy. Gilbert knew they weren't but he didn't know what else to say. He tried his best to stay calm. He looked at Wendy trying to find some kind of emotion but was left with nothing.

"It looks fun, but we should probably get to school? Hate to be tardy. Mr. Phillips sure get his dander up about that,"

"Yeah. I was just about to get going," Says Billy. He quickly looks at Wendy and gives her a look to not tell what happened. "See you there," Billy walks away. Gilbert looks at him walking away but quickly has his eyes back on the girl.

Before he says anything he quickly checks the girl out. He notice that all her stuff is on the ground.

"You alright, Miss?" he looks the blond haired girl right in her greyish eyes. She doesn't respond. Instead she bends down to get her stuff. Gilbert does the same to help her. But when they both get up their heads bump into each other. Wendy rubs her head and looks at the ground. Her belongings didn't fall and she walks past the boy she just met.

Gilbert tries to catch up and find out what her name is but she completely ignores him. This makes Gilbert only more fascinating about the girl. He likes the fact that she is little has grey eyes and with blond hair. It is different.

When he finally reaches school he finds the girl sitting next to Diana. She is writing something in a journal and Diana is looking over Wendy her shoulder to see what she is writing. Gilbert is greeted by all his friends. They ask about his trip and he answers the questions. but he doenst look away from the girl.

When lunch break finally arrives Wendy sits outside. She sits next to the stream. She opens her journal and starts adding and erasing things. A few minutes after Wendy arrives at the stream, Gilbert finds the girl. He sits besides her. Again she completely ignores him. He just sits there and talks. He actually finds it nice to talk without someone saying anything. When the break is over they go back inside. Wendy is in her seat faster than Gilbert. When Gilbert comes in he sees the girl sitting in her bench.

Later that day he finds out her name is Wendy. The walk home goes by fast. He has the image of the girl freshly printed in his head. He wants to tell his dad about the girl. But decides to wait until she actually says something to him. When he arrives home he find the Klaus in the kitchen making tea. His father wanted to hire Klaus, he asked why but didn't get a clear response.

"How was school?" says Klaus when he pours the tea for Gilbert and his father. He gives Gilbert his tea.

"It was good," was the simple response Klaus got. Klaus nodded and brings Gilbert his father his tea. Soon after that he leaves to his own home.

Days go bye and every break Wendy sits by the stream and Gilbert is sitting next to her. He talks about everything. He thinks Wendy is not listening but she actually does. She enjoys it. She finds his voice smoothing. She doesn't let him know though. She keeps writing in her journal. Sometimes Gilbert asks what is in it.

Days turn into weeks and still Wendy hasn't said one word to the boy. Diana told her that Ruby finds it quite annoying the time Wendy and Gilbert send together. Wendy told Diana that she doesn't say anything to him.

Mr. Phillips writes some mathematical sums on the board. Wendy looks at Diana. She finds them easy. It's not that Wendy doesn't find them easy but for some reason she can't concentrate. She writes something down. She has her hair loose with a little braid on the side.

Someone throws a piece of paper towards the girl. She decides to ignore it. But then another piece hits the back of her head. Soon after that she hears a familiar voice.

"Whoops," he bends down and drops an apple on her table. At first she finds the gesture sweet, but then he pulls on her side braid. Images flash through her mind. She tries to stay calm but her reflexes handle before her brain has time to think.

"BANG" 

A/N: First of all I'm melting. Second this is shit I'm sorry. Third I shall try to upload every Sunday. Fourth Some scenes I use from the book and series are in here because i think that in some way Anne and Wendy have a lot in common. I try to be as original as I can be but some things I find so beautiful and meaningful I just want them to be in the book. I hope you like this shitty chapter.

All The Love,

M

*My inspiration for this book is the book Anne of Green Gables. I totally love those books and find them fascinating. This book consists personages and scenes from the original book. All the credits go to the author L. M. Montgomery. In this book there is no Anne and the love intrest for Wendy will be Gilbert. If you have problems with that I completely understand, but if you are here to hate please don't read the book. It will be a waste if my time and your time.

WARNING! THIS BOOK CONSIST VIOLENCE, ABUSE AND CURSING.*
