Her Hearts Grave

Chapter 3: Memories

(Theres Jess)

I wondered how long he waited for me, the whole 2 years? Had he thought I died? I'm not sure. Does he still like me..? I looked at him with a soft smile. "Did, Did you think I died?" He frowned and glanced away, I think he didn't want to remember that. He nodded. "Yeah. I thought I lost you.." He cupped my face in his hands. "Please, never scare me like that again." I blushed slightly and nodded "Alright, Sorry that I left you" He sighed and shook his head. "No, you didnt want to. i'm sure. you always would tell me when you were going anywhere, and you promised you'd stay here with me no matter what." I smiled. I must have cared about him a lot. I can see why too. Hes very nice and handsome and caring.
     I wonder if he still liked me, but I won't ask. I stared into his Emerald green eyes for what it seemed like hours before he let go of my face, blushing slightly, and looked away. I chuckled. "What is it Hunter?" He just shrugged "I don't know what you're talking about." I grinned and moved so I was in front of his face, I put my index finger on his light pink cheek, slightly surprised at how soft they were. "You're pink." this just made him look away again, his cheeks were a deeper shade of pink now. "Its just warm in here Alice, thats all." I smiled. "Ah, alright. I was going to ask for a hug but.." He quickly looked back at me. "A quick hug is okay!" I chuckled. "Alright, alright" I wrapped my arms around him, pulling him into a gentle yet tight hug. He hugged me back, being super gentle with me. I then realized how strong he was. Yet he was being so careful to not harm me. "Hey Hunter..?" I asked hesitantly. He looked at me. "Yeah?"
      I scanned his eyes, and decided to wait to ask him if he still likes me. I looked away. "Never-mind." He looked confused and pulled my face back over to face him gently. "What is it Alice?" I shook my head, blushing slightly "Its nothing." He sighed. "You used to tell me everything.." I felt bad, but looked away again. "Its really nothing Hunter. Sorry." He ran his fingers through my hair. "Alright, Just know I wont judge you." I nodded "I know, thank you" To be honest I was holding back tears.
        He still trusted me after 2 years... And i barely remembered him. I cant remember pretty much anything. I started to tear up. He noticed that and wrapped his arms around me tightly. "Its okay, I'm here.." He didnt know what was wrong. but still tried to comfort me. I started to cry. I buried my head into his chest. He wrapped his arms around me. I kept silently crying. After about 20 minutes of him sitting there in silence holding me I had stopped crying. "Are you alright?" He sounded slightly worried. but his voice was smooth and calming. I nodded. "Yeah... thank you..." He smiled and gently wiped away the last of my tears. He murmured something along the lines of 'You're still so beautiful' I pretended not to hear it. "What?" I looked up at him. He shook his head, blushing slightly and looked away. "Nothing, Nothing." I reached over and poked his nose. "Hunter come onnn" I whinned. He laughed slightly. "Its nothing Alice." I huffed. "Fine, be that way" He sighed. "Oh come on, dont be like that.."
I pouted. "Then just tell me!" He looked back at me. "You look nice today." I crossed my arms. "Is that really what you said?" He laughed. "Yessss!" I sighed. That was probably the most I could get for now.  I smiled. "Thanks Hunter, You don't look too bad yourself" I reached up and ran my fingers through his blonde hair. I smiled again and he blushed. "Its soft" I had said without really thinking. When I said that he glanced down at my lips. "Yeah, it is." He then quickly looked back into my ocean blue eyes, he placed a hand on my cheek. "You're so.." He sighed. "I'm so what?" I asked. He shook his head and I put my hands in my lap.
