Beyond The Wall

3

Another female dropped off at the border. We don't know why they come and the Head Of Girls don;t tell us anything. We just know that they didn't do anything wrong. And none of them know what they did to be sent over here. It's not bad, there's nature here and it's not like those big buildings you can see from the other side. From what I've heard there was order and no one on this side knows that word. The Head Of Boys says we are free to do whatever as long as we don't kill anyone or try to cross the wall.

At last there was another girl unconscious on the border. I went over and looked at the next victim. It was obvious she would be out for awhile, there were bruises on her arms, but they were small. I crouched down and removed the hair from her face. My heart did somersaults. She was beautiful.

When I woke up it was dark outside. I had a huge headache and i tried to stand and my legs didn't move. I looked down and saw that I was tied to something. I freaked out because being tied up scared me but no one needed to know that. I started hyperventilating and a figure rushed to my side. I looked up and saw this thing that looked just like me but it was different. It was definitely human, I think. It had chiseled features and it had bright blue eyes and blond hair. And its teeth were perfect white as snow. I kinda felt attracted to it. Surprisingly looking into its beautiful eyes calmed me down. I stopped and it smiled at me. I've only heard of attraction in stories, it was a very weird feeling.

"Glad you finally woke up" it said. "I thought you'd be unconscious for at least another hour."

"What?" I was confused. "I was unconscious? Also another thing, untie me now."

Before I let it answer I had a realization. The memories came flooding back, the Head of Girls, the people I thought were my friends. It made me mad just to think about it. I tried to look behind me and realized the wall looked different. There were vines and ropes and flowers. I was definitely on the other side.

"Well first off my name is James." Said the thing.It put its hand out and then laughed.

"Oh I forgot you're tied up." it smirked. I blushed, which I have never done before.

"I'm guessing you've never seen a boy before?" he asked with a smirk.

"No I haven't. Can you please untie me now?" I almost yelled. He actually jumped a bit.

"Fine okay, okay" James said. He brought out a knife from his back pocket and cut the ropes.

"Um if you don't mind me asking what's a boy?" I asked curiously. He just pointed at himself. "Can you elaborate." He sighed.

"Well i'm human like you but I don't have..." He pointed at his chest blushing.

"Don't have what?" I asked knowing what he was referring to.

"Um its um uh," he stuttered.

"Don't be a wuss." I laughed. "Just say it."

"No"

I rolled my eyes.

"Fine it's not like I can force you" I said.

"So I told you my name what's yours?" James said changing the subject. I obviously couldn't tell him my real name I don't trust him. So I said the first thing that popped into my head.

"It's Kim" I said.

"Well nice to meet you Kim" taking his time on my name. Then he held out his hand and I shook it.

"Just Kim?" he asked.

"Well its Kimberly but you can't call me that."

"I sense some sas." he raised an eyebrow.

"What no" I smiled.

James stood up and led me a hand. I looked at him and got up by myself leaving him hanging.

"Well we obviously can't leave you here. I have from friends on the other side of that hill over there. Don't worry its farther than it looks" I groaned, he smiled.

"Well let's start our journey."

Later that day James and I went meet his "friends" as he calls them. That's so weird, considering that I no longer have any friends. I've never been so nervous about something in my entire life. My mind was in a different place. There were so many things here i had never seen before. Like animals and bushes. I hope his friends were not as weird as he is. I was too busy thinking what his friends are like I didn't realize he was trying to talk to me.

"...Earth to Kim, Anyone there?" I pulled myself from my thoughts and looked at him. He had a worried look on his face.

"Are you alright?" he said. "You look kind of out of it"

"I'm fine." I lied.

I stopped and said I needed a break and he agreed. The sun was setting the atmosphere was just calming. I've never seen the sunset like this. The colors were so magnificent. I wondered why this was such an open space. I mean on the girl's side of the wall it was just building after building. After a while we started walking again. I could feel myself getting short of breath. I remembered that the guards had knocked me out. I wondered what else they had done. Then suddenly a sharp pain went up my leg and I collapsed.

I felt James catch me before I hit the ground and he put me in a sitting position. The thing was that I was sitting on his lap. He also had a worried look on his face.

"What are you looking at?" I said with a smirk trying to ignore the pain in my leg.

"Your beautiful face, we should get going I will carry you the rest of the way" he said. I was still hung up on what he said, i'm beautiful? All the girls said i'm average looking. I was surprised.

"You don't have to do that I can walk"

"Hmm" he said. "Lets see you try" he let go of me and I tried to stand up. The pain came once again and I fell on my butt. He picked me up again and sighed.

"What a beautiful mess."

"You think i'm beautiful?" that's the second time he had called me that. He blushed and almost dropped me because he tripped over himself. I gripped on to him tighter.

"well a lot of pretty girls come around here" What a liar.

After a while I just fell asleep in his arms dreaming about the girls in my house. The people who I thought were my friends.
