Note-Hello, Coon here, just take note that this may contain lemons and the such, and this first chapter’s just to get the feel for it, so I expect reviews!
It gets warmer towards the end of spring. Wild flowers pique with their exotic
colors and varieties. Everything is overgrown and lazy with exhaustion. I thought the
dogwood trees were so beautiful…when they all fell and whisked down the clean
suburban street. I followed them one day, way down till I got to a park at the end of the
street, it was sunset and I could just make out the pink/orange sky over the bushelling
trees. I started down now, and I saw a moving swing, slowly, back and forth, getting
slower till it ceased, a young boy sat there with a lifeless frown on his face, “Hey! Are
you okay?” I ran over to him, my arm over his shoulder, he tilted his head away and
shrugged me off, “I’m…not crying” I pulled his head upwards by his short dark brown
hair, and stared into his bright green eyes, “You can cry…if you want to…” the boy on
the swing got up and looked down depressed, “Boys don’t cry.” I picked his head up
again, and planted a warm kiss on his soft red lips, breaking shortly, “I cry…I cried for
you…” He pulled me into him with a weakly powerful embrace, as I felt his heart beat
next to mine. I held him back and we kissed again, “…Please…don’t leave me…” I
cried a little too, I buried my head into his smooth shoulder, “I’ll never leave you. I
promise.”
It started to get darker; we sat on the swings, holding hands talking, “So I really
didn’t know blueberries grew on bushes! What about cherries?” He swung his head
back and looked at the big scary tree, letting out a quiverous sound, “Er…yea… I think
cherries grow on trees, you know, like George Washington cut down a cherry tree or
whatever?” He was 12, a year younger than me, his name’s Ash, what an odd name,
“How weird, their all the same kind of fruit but they come from all different places.” He
swung back up again, “Yea…a lot like us, huh?” He’s right, I should probably be back in
the city now, I bet my aunt’s worried about me, but I really wanted to stay with him, he
won’t even tell me what his problem is! “I need to go home soon…can I see you again?”
He sighed inwardly, and pulled me closer, “You can come to my house if you want… 18
Wellington Ave., it’s a couple houses down from here…I’ll be waiting for you.” We
kissed quickly and I slowly let go of his hand as I ran down the street, I didn’t look back.
