Chapter 30: Measure a Year

~ Two Years Later~

"Oh come on man up there's only like one more cliff and a path", I told Dylan as we climbed the cliffs. "Ughh what exactly do you wanna show me anyway?", he huffed as I pulled him up. We got on a path and started walking up. "The other day I went exploring and I started climbing this, and then the most amazing view and-", then I stepped in between some bushes and he gasped when he saw the view. "Yeah I know right", I laughed and laid my head on his shoulder. Then a small sparrow flew on top of my three fingers and I smiled at it. Then it flew out again with it's family.

"Yeah it's beautiful", I said looking out into the distance. "Just like you", he said and kissed the top of my head. I blushed and we sat down against a rock. "What if this was all a magical kingdom filled with fairies, mermaids, and oh! Unicorns!", I said getting excited. "Then the king and queen died and the mystical creatures looked for a new king or queen.", Dylan said laughing. "Yes! That's what happened and then Prince Dylan comes along and try's to be king", I said crossing my arms.

"And Princess Isabelle comes in like I'm gonna be queen of dis land so move out my way prince!", he said in a ratchet voice. "No actually!", I laughed. "They fought to take their role!", I said and jumped on his back. "But then something comes in the way", he said putting me on his shoulders. "And it's called-", I said and flipped over his head landing on my feet. "Love", we said and looked in each other's eyes and he kissed me with passion.

I promise you every time he does this my butterflies and ninjas erupt in my stomach it's like wild. "And they called the kingdom Croptopia!", I said and we walked back down the path together. Cawk! Cask! We heard some hawking from up the trees. "Stop something's in trouble!", I said stopping Dylan. "It was probably just a bird", he said and kept walking. I ran up the path and went to the trees. There was a hurt bird in the trees. "Heck yeah it was just bird", I said rushing to it's aid.

The hawk fell out the tree and it had a twig in it's wing. "Shh shh", I said holding it still. "Shh sweetie this might hurt a little okay but it will be okay in the end", I said and got my first aid kit out my bag. Yeah I get your like 'you bring a first aid kit everywhere you go?' no but the woods are dangerous and you never know what could happen. I slowly pulled the twig out and quickly wrapped her wing up. I bandaged it tight and put her in my bag. "Your so kind", Dylan said and I smiled. "Yeah now come on let's get this bird back to little house", I said and we continued to walk back to the little house.

I put her in an old bird cage and watched as she fell asleep. "There ya go", I whispered and closed the cage. "What are you gonna name her?", Dylan asked laying on the couch. "Faith", I said sitting on top of him. "Oh my God Isabelle", he said groaning. "What? You want me to step on your tummy?", I said laughing. "No! You ate too much Taco Bell yesterday!", he said and I sat on his chest. "Hey! I can't help myself!", I said laughing. He flipped me over and kissed me. "What time is it?", I said against the kiss.

"A quarter after two", he said still kissing me. "Then I gotta go", I said flipping us over and grabbing my bag. "Okay I gotta go to", he said and got up. "Hey come over at six", I said and he nodded. We walked out the house and walked through the woods. Then once we got my street we parted ways. I went to my house and walked in. "I'm home!", I yelled and ran upstairs. Over the last two years, Chloe moved in with us. It was getting crowded and we were talking about moving.

So Cameron, Nash, Matt, and I moved into another house and it was close to the woods and my dance studio. The Jacks and Carter lived around the corner. And Aaron, Shawn, and Taylor lived around the corner next to them so everything was good. I went upstairs to my room and got my dance stuff. I went downstairs and saw Cameron on his phone. "I'll be back before six", I said and went out the front door. Then I walked to the dance studio since it was so close.

I walked in and the cool air blew on my body. Everyone was stretching and talking and stuff. I wonder where Lexi is? She just got a boyfriend about a year ago. "Hey bae!", she said and jumped on my back. "Oh hey Lexi!", I said and looked up. I lifted her off my shoulders- Yeah I know I'm strong- and placed her on the ground. "You look pale", I said looking at her pale face. "Really?", she said and her voice cracked. "Yeah are you okay?", I said and I felt her head. "Yeah I'm fine Isabelle just leave it alone!", she said and smacked my hand away. Ooh someone's feisty.

Then Janice told us to get in our dance positions for the new dance we were doing for this one festival. Lexi was in the front and I was beside her. "5! 6! 7! 8!", Janice yelled and watched us dance along to the music. "Pick up those legs Avery. Nice moving Jay, Lexi keep up with everyone", Janice said walking around us. She was right, Lexi was slowing down a bit. Then Lexi stopped and ran to the bathroom. "Pause pause!", Janice yelled and stopped the music. "Everyone take five! Isabelle you wanna?-", she said and I nodded.

I ran to the bathroom and saw five stalls. "Lexi?", I heard her throwing up. I ran to the stall I heard her in and saw her hunched over a toilet throwing up. I rubbed her back and stroked her hair. When she was done, I cleaned her up by the sink. I fixed her hair and put it in a sloppy bun. "Lexi what's wrong?", I said and rubbed her back. "Nothing just a little sick, we should get back to dancing", she said and walked out the bathroom.
