Ben and walked hand in hand down a path leading into the forest. Everyone was in front while I was walking with Ben in the back. I looked down at Ben and he looked up at me. He looked tired. I picked him up and sat him on my arm as he leaned his head against my shoulder. Eventually we reached a river and started setting up camp.
" When will we be back at Phoenix Drop?"
" We should be there tomorrow afternoon." Laurence said.
I nodded and went into one of the tents and laid Ben down in the sleeping bag. I walked back outside and sat on a log by the fire. Garroth came and sat by me.
" So how was Evelyn's wedding?"
" It was great. It would have been better if you where there though. Emmalyn was going to cancel it until we decided to have it a few days later."
" That's good."
" Hey Y/n when is your birthday?"
" Ummm it's soon actually. It should be a month from now."
" Oh well how old will you be?"
" I'll be 21."
" I'll still be a year older than you then."
" Hey!"
We started laughing.
" So your a mother now."
" Ya. I'm happy that I have Ben."
" When did you adopt him?"
" Well I was walking one day when-
( Flashback )
I watched as a boy was pushed down.
" That's why no one will ever adopt you!"
" No y-your wrong!"
" No I'm not..."
The bully pushed him.
" ...I'm never wrong!"
Just when he was about to kick I ran over there.
" Hey what's going on over here!"
" None of your business lady!"
" I believe it is if your going to pick on an innocent boy."
" He's not innocent!"
" Oh? What has he done to provoke you then?"
" He was being mean to me. Calling me ugly words."
I looked down at the fallen boy. He had tears in his eyes and was shaking his head no. I picked him up and held him.
" Where is your guardian?"
" A-at the orphanage."
I walked with the boy to the orphanage. I talked to the woman about the crying boy. She walked out and started yelling at both of the boys. She came back in and asked if there was anything else.
" Yes actually I would like to adopt."
She smiled and we walked out into the living room and I seen a lot of children.
" Pick which one you want."
I walked around and looked. A lot of kids asked me what I was doing or if I would adopt them. I looked around and seen a little boy in the corner. I walked over to him and sure enough it was the crying boy.
" What's your name?"
" B-Ben."
" Well Ben would you like to come home with me?"
He jumped on me hugging me.
" Yes! Yes please!"
I laughed and carried him to the guardian. I signed the papers and walked out of there with Ben.
( Flashback over )
" Wow."
" Ya."
" So Ben's just a sweet kid."
" Ya. I love him. He's always asked about a father,but I would always tell him when I meet the right guy."
" Well that's-"
" Mama!!"
I ran to his tent and seen him crying.
" Ben it's okay. Your okay your safe."
I hugged Ben to my chest and whispered happy things into his ear. He calmed down enough to tell em what happened.
" I seen you laying on the ground frozen. I seen a thing of ice all around you."
I felt my eyes widen in the realization.
" Ben you need to go back to bed. That's not going to happen okay?"
He nodded and laid down. I walked outside with Garroth. We walked to the river and sat down.
" To think I actually forgot about your curse."
" I don't blame you. I forgot about it too......................Hey Garroth?"
" Ya."
" If it ever comes to that point where I'll be frozen raise Ben for me please."
" Y/n that won't happen...
He grabbed my shoulders and turned me towards him and he looked at me in the eyes.
" ...l make sure it won't happen."
I nodded and gazed into his eyes. He gazed back into mine. He started leaning in.
" Garroth! Y/n!! Where are you guys!?"
Garroth and I leaned away.
" Everytime."
I giggle at Garroth's frustration. Laurence came from the direction of the camp site and found us.
" Guys come on you two need your sleep for the journey tomorrow."
