   "Hello, Buckets!" I greet walking in from work, Charlie runs up and hugs me as I get a series of 'hello's back. I hug mum next and she asks the same question as every night, "Do you have something else?" I smile, nodding happily. She smiles back and sends me and Charlie off to get something, other than cabbage of course.

   A few minutes later, we're at the store, Charlie went to the candy aisle and I went to the veggie and fruit section. I bite my pointer, a habit I got from mum, and walk into someone, I fall down from the force and land on my bum. I look up seeing a weirdly dressed man offering me a hand. Haha that rhymed. I take the hand and he apologizes, "I am so sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going-" I cut him off, "No! It was completely my fault, sir. My apologies." I say.

   He smiles and takes off his circle sunglasses, his eyes are the most magnificent shade of purple and brown mixed together. My mouth opens and I try to speak, the words caught in my throat, he opens his mouth when we hear, "Sis!" My brother says running up.

   I turn to Charlie, "Have you found anything?" Charlie asks innocently, I laugh a bit, shaking my head, I turn to say something to the man, but find him gone.

   I was just shopping, I can't eat candy all the time, when I feel a little bump on my side. I look down and see a beautiful girl rubbing her head...on the ground. When it finally hit me she had bumped into me, I reach a hand down to help her up, but am taken aback when she looks up. Her eyes are a sparkling crystal blue, with a hint of grey, like a lake right after sundown, when the moon had just come up.

   I am taken out of my trance when she puts her soft hand in mine, my hand swallowing hers, I pull her up swiftly, apologizing, "I am so sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going-" She cuts me off saying, "No! It was completely my fault, sir. My apologies." Gosh, her voice is like an angel.

   I take off my sunglasses and she freezes, her eyes on mine. Now that I look closer, they seem to have tiny golden flecks in them, she opens her mouth, as if to speak, but nothing comes out. I open my mouth to apologize again, but I hear, "Sis!" I quickly flee seeing a little boy come bounding towards us.

   I hide in a aisle, watching her, when done talking she turns around, mouth open, but comes short when she sees I'm not there.

   She's looking for me.

   I finally, with the help of Charlie, decided on tomatoes, I try to help mum cook, but all I can think about is that man. Who was he? Gosh, I must sound like a schoolgirl with her first crush. But his eyes...that beautiful mix of purple and brown, is forever engraved into my brain.

   "Evening, Buckets!" Dad hollered, as he step inside our little shack, Charlie and I grin, running towards him. "Daddy!" I yell, he chuckles, I have always been and will always be, a daddy's girl. "Charlie, I've got something for you." Daddy says, holding out smushed toothpaste caps, Charlie and I grin at each other, "It's perfect!" I exclaim, as Charlie gets out the toothpaste cap version of the chocolate factory.

   "What piece?" Grandpa Joe questions, as Charlie puts the head on, "A head for Willy Wonka!" He says excitedly. "It looks just like him!" Exclaims Grandpa Joe, "Really?" Charlie blushes and Grandpa nods, saying, "I saw Willy Wonka with my own two eyes." That set Grandpa off on the story of the factory and the prince who didn't listen.

   After Grandpa George lowered Charlie's hope, we were sent off to bed, "Goodnight!" We say, getting 6 good nights back. We crawl into bed and Charlie whispers, "Can I sleep with you?" I smile and nod, he crawls over cuddling into me and drifts to sleep.

   I fall asleep dreaming about 2 purple and brown eyes.
