#EDITED#

*Jack's POV*

I caught her, in time.

The first time she landed in my arms, I just want to squeeze her. Her body just fitted perfectly in my arms. She belongs in my arms. God knows where its creature belongs to.

She was warning me, but she herself who got the fall.

"It's going too far, Olivia. Let's just go back, yeah?"

We have been walking through a trees, dead trees. Old branches blocking the way. She is no fear for them. Instead, she is the one that push them out of our way.

"Just a little more walk. You will hear it." She stubbornly said. What will I hear?

One step.

Two step.

Three step.

Four step.

I stop. I hear it, I know what she meant now. It's like a music to my ear, so natural.

"Do you hear it now?" She turns and smile excitedly to me.

"Yes." I answer with the same excitement.

She grab my hand and start to jogged towards the noises. I walk carefully while looking on my way, I put my hand on top of her head to prevent the branches gets it way to her head. She is just that excited.

We stopped in front of the flow river. It's not that fast, it's slow but comforting to hear.

In front of us is a river, medium size. Rocks, from the small to the big ones. I see a huge rock, just one on the river banks. The water flow so calmly, just like in the wood. There is nothing, but a sounds of random animals, like the little ones.

The water is so clear, a pure water, hasn't been infected.

She let go of my hand and walk closer to the edge. I watch her as she take off her shoes, put them away on then dry rock, far away from the water. She seem lost in her own world, that she forget about me being here with her.

Because I don't want to disturb her time in here. I take off my shoes like she did and carefully walk to the edge of the water. I don't want to get my body wet. I'm just going to dip my feet onto my ankle.

"Jack." She turns as she saw me standing not too far from her. She smiles in guilty. "I'm sorry, I'm too catch up."

"That's fine, Oli. So, what did you do when you were here?" I ask, putting my hands on my jeans pocket, walking closer to her.

I walk passed her to the big rock. Leaning onto the rock, looking at her.

She stand there, looking nervous,  because she always put down her head quite a lot.

"We used to go here to cleared our mind. You know, school is really tough and busy. We, most of the time stressed ourselves. So we decided to come here because no one would know this place besides us."

"What happened to them now?" That was what I always thinking whenever she talks about them. I imagine that they were a really good friends from how she talk about them.

"We got to our separate ways. You've met Thomas, he was one of them." She explain.

I nodded.

That's explain why they were so close yesterday.

"Do you..... ever think about moving out from Bakewell?" I know that sounds crazy come out from me, asking a Bakewell native inhabitants. But there is always a chance.
