"A.  A, where are you going?"

That was Jake.  He was following me and wouldn't stop!  I was now annoyed.  So i started to fly.  I flew into a tree and then i just sat there.   I waited until he had left me alone but he didn't leave.  I knew he could hear my thoughts because i could feel him peeling away my thoughts. 

"Anastasia, im not leaving until you talk to me."

I was keeping my ground.  I wasn't going to let him win.  I was determined to- is that... no... it cant be.  I smell cookies.  Fresh cookies.  I realized how hungry i was when i smelled those cookies. 

"If you want the food you have to come out."

I was tempted!  But i couldn't let him see how vulnerable i was.  After all i did have a crush on him.

"I don't care about your vulnerability i just want to talk.  And crush?  Hmm Ive been promoted."  He said that with a proud attitude.  I couldn't help but laugh.

"Look A you need to come down."  His new nickname for me was "A".  It was short and wasn't the typical Ana.

"I can hear you.  You know that right?"

I finally came out of the tree.  And spoke "You know you didn't have to read my mind the while time."

"Yeah i know.  But i had fun doing it."  I rolled my eyes and smiled. 

"I guess you don't understand what i meant by that.  I meant please let me have my thoughts and my own opinions."

"Oh yeah.  Sorry it comes naturally."

I got mad.  After all Ive been through i couldn't have one of my own thoughts?  Just once?

"Well maybe you should go back to remembering im still figuring out this whole 'Im magical' idea!  I just found out my step mother was a real witch, my dad never cared about me, my mom cares but has no time for me so she spoils me to death and last but not least i have no family, no one who cares about me and NO TIME FOR ANYTHING!"  I said all of that with anger then i broke down crying.  I couldn't help it, i couldn't hold it in anymore!  It was tearing me apart.

"A.  I-im sorry.  I dont know what to tell you except i care.  I will always care no matter what."

I couldn't believe what he was saying.  It was so genuine... i didn't know how to respond..

"You don't have to respond.  Just know that."  He was completely serious and was just staring at me.  I didn't know what to say or do.

"Jake.... your so sweet."

"I know."  He made a cheesy smile and walked away.  I stood under the tree and sat there and thought about everything.
