He told me three girls. They won't be here for long.

We sat in silence. I walked up to him. The pain in his face told me something. I just hurt everyone I get close to. I pulled the pin out and blood ran down his stomach. I felt horrible. I didn't want to hurt anybody. I felt my eyes water up. I ran and jumped...out the window.

"Sophie!" His scream didn't stop me. I landed and kept running.
I saw what looked like a forest. I ran towards it.

"Sophie come back here!" His scream from a distance... I need to stay away from people. I hurt them just like he said in my dream.

When I got to the forest it was super dark. I was mostly out of breath and my mind was wondering in circles. I walked around. I was lost so I kept going. I walked for a little while longer. I came across some ruins. The ruins were big. There were two big doors. They were cracked open.

I heard Arthour's voice in the distance. I hurried inside. Hopefully he doesn't find me.

Inside seemed bigger than the outside. It was dark and cold. Animals made home under the fallin pieces. Moss was all on the walls. The smell of fresh air filled my nose. I felt at home.
I walked around amazed by everything. There was also broken fountains. It was true nature. It was beautiful.

I looked around some more and saw a little girl. She looks a little purplish. I can't make out any details before she flew away, through the roof. So she was a ghost. How strange. I  walked some more. Felling the wind on my face was wonderful.

...

I was alone...it hurts. I hold back all my tears so no one will worry. I don't want them to worry about me.
I found a nice spot on the ground. There were flowers all around me. I wanted to hold onto the tears but it was killing me. I sat there crying. I pain was slowly going away. I look up to see the ghost girl right in front of me.

She had purple skin and green hair. She had chains around her waist. Her clothes were all torn.
She pulled the prettiest flower out the ground and put it in my hair. She flouted out the ruins.

She pulled this flower right out the ground. It was beautiful...now it's going to die. The ghost girl made me feel a little better.
Having someone care about you and not worry about you feels nice. It makes me smile. I like this feeling. All I need is a little bit of attention. Is that what I'm looking for?

"Sophie I know you're in there. Come out." But I don't want to leave. I love it here. And I was really tired and wanted to get some sleep. So I'll just come back tomorrow. I walked out the ruins and saw Arthour.
He pulled me close to him and looked all around me. Pulling up my arms and rubbing my sides. I just looked at him.

"Why did you run away? I was worried sick when I couldn't find you. I thought you gotten hurt or killed."

"I'm just really tired." I yawned and fell on Arthour.

"I'm just really... tired."

"...ok." Arthour pick me up. I was on the front side of him and hung my head over his shoulder. I wrapped my arms around his neck. I watched the ruins get smaller and smaller. I touched the flower that was in my hair. It was soft and smooth.

...

I woke up a bit later. Everything was a blur. I was inside of the Main Hall. I made out body figures. My head hurts really bad. The figures moved out the window. Weird. That word can describe this whole trip. I felt something around my waist. I poked it.

"Ah..oh Sophie you're awake." His work we're slird. His arm squeezed me tightly.

"Arthour what are you doing?" My words we're slird too. I was sleeping with Arthour again.

"You smell nice. Like flowers."

"Um ok Arthour. Go back to sleep." I didn't hear him anymore. I should get some more sleep too. Tomorrow is going to be a busy day.
I was thinking about the window. The window is the key for everything out here. It was big and shiny.
