Graces Pov

Its was cold and snowy tonight my nose was redder than a tomato my fingers fingers where numb and snowflakes kissed me soft skin giving me goosebumps

I look at the frozen lake children raced across on ice skates though the ice was thin it snapped under ones feet i rushed over pulling the child up from beneath the icey water

The child reconized me and ran off my reputation isnt the best the parents do the whole scaring your children into doing their chores if you dont do this you'll end up like that if you dont act like that you'll end up like her

I got up sighing looking at my pale skin then up the the sky it was cloudy my eyes that where once blue and yellow have faded almost black staring up at the bleak grey clouds i was physically 14 but in reality i didn't know my age

I heard a crack from below before falling into the dark cold abyss of the water i knew it was over for me i mean who would care i was neglected everywhere i was the demon realm human realm and soon the next life possibly

I felt a strong grasp grip my arm pulling me up i coughed looking up at the tall figure looking to be about my age a little older as he sat me in the snow

"You ok i couldnt just stand there"he said i got up taking a deep breathe nodding

"So your not gonna talk?"he says jokingly i looked down picking up a stick writing something in the snow

'I cant speak' i wrote he nodded looking down at the writing

"Your not going to survive at all out here"he says he seems very jokey "how about you join me i can teach you" he says with a soft chuckle holding his hand out i hesitated before wrapping my hand in his
