Cross My Heart

Chapter One~ Secrets♥

"Momma Daddy where are you!!" I screamed.

There where no voice only shadows and darkness. I kept walking until my little feet couldn't handle it and I was forced to stop. When I stopped everything would become clear and I was in a forest with a boy a few years older than me. But it all became darkness again.

When it became clear again I would see the boy pushing me down the river in a boat but he wasn't on it. There was a sad smile on his face and that's when I noticed he was bruised and beaten badly. I yelled for him to come with me but he threw a bracelet to me and walked away. I was whisked away by the water and that's where it ended. I could never remember anymore.

I woke up crying again. I had the same dream for years. It meant something but I don't know. I was 8 when that happened. The next thing I remember is going into another forest and here I am now. I'm 18 I believe and I live in the forest alone. Survival was my only hope and I adapted into my environment. No I'm not wild I'm actually quite modern with the latest stuff. I've always been able to persuade people into doing things my way. Not for evil just when people question me and when I need to go to school.

I sighed and got out of bed. I took a bath in a hot spring I found a few years ago. When I was done I went back into the tree house I live in and put on some back shorts and a black tank top. Its winter but my body oddly runs hot. I slipped on my black flip flops and grabbed my bags for school and began my walk. I hear howls as I walk but I ignore them and keep walking. After about an hour of school I arrived at school. Everyone ignored me and I ignored everyone. People are an unwanted attachment. I walk into their library and start studying. I hate class so I learn everything from books and only show up for tests and crap like that.

I sit in my usual corner and start studying science. I saw a boy pass me and he looked familiar. I couldn't put my finger on it but I knew him. I got up to go talk to him but he was gone. I shrugged and sat back down that's when I heard the voice.

'Don't you feel alone?' It said.
