Prologue: I ran as fast as I could. No looking back now, what has been done has been done and that is final, one more to tick of the list hu? I stopped and sat down by a tree for a minute or so before running of again. "home" I thought as I ran "something I will never have, just like hope." I Turned and looked at the burning orphanage. Millions must of died there, and to think I had almost settled in. "Alex, don't worry, its not your fault you accidentally tripped over an fell on the overheat button on the boiler with your face." Something happens like this to every orphanage I go to, weather its christian, Jewish, non-religious, Buddhist. Anything,yes anything I will accidentally screw up somehow, luckily my best friend matt was with me through everything. We carried on running until He threw up in the grass from running to much. It was good timing anyhow because this looked like a good space to set up camp.

My Teddy

The corner of his mouth tilts upward slightly. I smile again. A smile!? A tiny one, but still. "Hm. So I got you to smile, that's progress, yeah? Can I get your name now?" I ask, swinging my feel a little. He shakes his head shyly, his mouth not moving at all. Geez! Why do I want to hear this dude talk so much? "Okay, that's fine. I can give you a nickname." I offer happily. He looks up from his book, raising his eyebrows. I just stare for a moment. He has nice eyes. Pretty brown chocolate orbs. They remind me so much of....... "Teddy." He shakes his head immediately, frowning. "What, why not? You remind me of my old teddy bear. He was a good listener and he didn't talk much..... just like you." I say softly, tilting my head. He continues to shake his head. I fold my arms, leaning back in my seat. "Yeah, it's definitely sticking. Teddy.....It has a nice ring to it, yeah?" He sighs, the first sound I have ever heard him make. "No." . . . *Jordan* Teddy!? Seriously!? She gave me a fucking NICKNAME!? What the hell does this girl want!? I stuff my hands into my pockets, walking down the busy street. Forget about her. She's just a annoying pretty girl, she'll go away. Everybody does. She HAS to go away. *Spoiler alert*: she doesn't. Don't get close to people or they'll end up getting hurt. That's my mindset. I've been through enough of that. This girl doesn't belong in my world anyway. She's too innocent. *Mature content* {Just a quick update, I am basically rewriting the story. I wrote it when I was in 8th grade and it makes me cringe every time I try to go back and edit it so keep in mind that it'll get better}
