In The Woods

A sweet smell of perfume, which smelled like freshly cut flowers in the summer hung in the air as alice appeared to wash her pale face for school. Her glowing eyes were still dreamy like it was still the misty night. Alice looked the mirror, her innocent face reflected off it.A girl with a lost broken smile believing she was happy forbided to exspress emotion. Her skin was clear like her soul and her wide leafy green eyes were opened up by the extension of Alices long black eyelashed, which looked like spider legs spread out. In the corner of the mirror,the brunete hair dye drew alices attension. Alice looked curiously at the brunete hair dye because it was an instant reminder of what life used to be like as alice has glowing, gentle ginger hair but she got tormented becuase of it as her hair is considerd ugly as it is different, students at the school saw an opitunity to make her feel like a freak, which could cause anyone to isolate themselfs from others. A tear drop fell from her face and she bowed her head down remembering the troubled times of the past before she met Alex, a indie boy that prefers to be called alternative. The thing she liked about Alex the most was the mystery and the illusive hope he had. A dreamer with ambition of reaching his goal.

A loud echo came from outside. Alice looked a upon the snowy ground to witness Alex standing frozen smerking at Alice but Alice knew what he was up to because Alex wasent dressed in the appropriate uniform for the school and the rare smerk was a sighn of bad behaviour. Alice walked out the door pretending she was going to attend school but she was about to skip school to hang out in the blackend woods with her trusted friend Alex.

When Alice walked in the garden, it seemed like Alex had disapeared into the distance of the icy landscape. He looked like a black shadow hiding away in the blanket of snow. Winter time was a speical time for Alice as it symboled a change, how one mouth can delivery a total diffent image. Alice ran into the thick field of snow to catch of with Alex. When they where face to face they looked into each others eyes like beloved long time lovers. Alice was the first to look away to hide her blushing cheeks and pretended to laugh so it didnt look obvious that she fancied him. Alices love for Alex is so unexspected its like a horror movie. When its dark Alexs fulls eyes lights the room up and Alex haunts the occuring fantasys ocuring in Alices mind.

Alice asked "what if my dad finds us in the wood".

Alex replied asking "whats his buisness in the woods".

Alice replied "he goes to the woods to chop down trees for fuel".

Alex assured her "he wont see us, no one goes past the gate".

Alice said " oh yeh, where the lake is".

Alice felt safe with Alex, he would always assure her when she felt worried making her confidence grow the longest shes with him. Alex is like summer and Alice is flower blossuming with bright and vibrant colours, but when summer ends, the flower shrivled and weak.

They both finaly made it at the towering woods where Barmly trees stand tall blocking sunlight reaching the moist grass Alice walked on. Beuatiful blue butterflys scatterd the surrounding and placed themself on the bark of the tree, it looked magical like it came out of a fairytale. A owl freakenly turned its head in wonder to glare into the mystery of Alexs eyes. It was like the owl knew, who Alex was, but isnt that impossible?.

Alice wonderd in excitment like a newborn baby looking at the world for the first time. Alice sat down on the log placing her head in her petite hands Like a toddler would do on a photo shoot. When she looked closer at the blank log, it started to change in the fact that sworm of creatures walked along it. She stared at the magnificent scene untill quiert whisiling was heard slightly coming from deep in the black forest. Alice suddenly wanted to see what it was, which was a bit bizare as Alice is pure soul therefore frightend by slightest of measures. It seemed like the animals knew that Alice was pure and harmless becuase bunny rabbits slowly came out of the holes walking toward Alice tredding over lard rouge mushrooms spotted with bright yellow cirles. Alex smiled at her once more. Now Alice knew something was suspicious by the unique way Alex was acting. Alex seemed to be acting quirt or timid but usualy he is a charismatic, loud and energenic person however it dounts on Alice how Alex isnt noticed in school when his drawing attension to himself on a daily basis however its Alice that gets the deadly looks from the class and the teacher (Mrs Dransfield), a gentle soul, who is currently in the hospital. No one knows why but there are rumours going round that Alice dosent care to listen but rather daydream, being in her private world. Alices dream is to live in secret woods segregated from society because Alice enjoys her own company but her only exception is Alex, the only person that has ever made her smile, a smile that she is despiratly trying to find, lost in the darkness were she used to live her life lonely life.

still silent, things were akward. frozen still, with nothing to speak off. Not looking at each other but glaring into the distance. One of them had to speak before things about to unravel like thin ribbon.
