green eyes in the woods

I usually after long day at school I go to hang out with the girls in one of our houses.

This time we went to Macy's place with her messy rooms so full of things I only see in the schools chemistry lab... Macy is nerd girl with perfect grads always unlike Jolien and I.

If I compare between them both Macy would be the angle on my shoulder

But the thing that I don't like about both of them is that there heads are in the clouds, always day dreaming about there romantic life...the romance that they never tried yet they talk like experienced girls in love stories.

"oh God why are we all single ,girls? I mean we are not that ugly, are we?"Macy asked desperately for answer

"Maybe because we got good competition against us those barbie face cheerleaders!" Jolien said in rage

"Why do you even care? What if we don't find "true love" you all know that “the one” will come when he want…don't try too hard and maybe focus on other important things like…em I don't know, maybe your LIFE!" I said feeling like I fed up of this everyday's conversation

"Here we go again" both of them said rolling there eyes

"What?!"I asked

"As usual you deny it sapphire...love won't knock your door it's the magic you ran after" Jolien answered

"And it's amazing too" Macy commented

"Okay lost Disney Princesses I will leave both of you alone so you can day dream about your shining armour and your prince charming as much as you girls want" I said heading to the door.

"Where are you going evil queen?" Jolien laughed

"The No Leaf Forest... I need some alone time and you know it's impossible to find in my place" I answered heading out "see you later girls" I said closing the door behind me.

The no leaf forest was a small forest that had a lot of trees but rarely I see any of them got a leaf on its branches.

No one comes here especially in the night time cause they find it so scary with the darkness, silence in the air and few bats flying around.

I always felt like this place is the best place to find a massive castle and inside lived lonly Dracula still waiting to find someone to drink there's blood for supper. That's why it's literally only mine to walk in to sit comfortably to doodle or sing or just talk to the flying bats when I am sad in a hope they understand me.

What is wrong with them? Can't they see that they are not living in a fairytale?

"Just because the people made up thousands of stories or millions of love songs it made them brain washed"

"And I am so crazy that I am talking to myself!"

That's when a bat screamed as if it's laughing.

"Thank you for listening to all this useless shit, little one" I said to the bat with disappointment

That's when suddenly I heard a branch break

"Who is there?! Is there is anyone here"

I heard few laughter as an answer that brought chilles to my entire body.

"Why don't you come out to face me and not hide like a coward?!" I shouted

No one responded but a shadow of someone was seen in the moon light who is hiding behind a tree.

"I see your shadow...now come out it won't make a difference"

And slowly a guy wearing a ripped jeans purple bandana tied to cover his mouth and nose and a hodie on the head that looked nothing different then the mystery guy in an action TV shows.

"WHO ARE YOU CALLING COWERED?!" The guy shouted in a strange accent.

" I am calling you, no one spy at people like this"I answered confidentially even though I feard him in the end he doesn't look like a good person.

"Me? Cowered? Ha! Said the girl who is now with shaking feet "he answered and found him standing really close to me as if he never heard of the word "personal space"

I felt betrayed by my friend the moon who exposed my weakness and fear.

"Who are you anyway? And why were you laughing?" I asked him and looked closely to have a better look.

And suddenly I was lost... I don't know what happened just when my eyes meet his green one I forgot what was I doing

"I was laughing at you adorable one who is having a therapy session with a bat" he laughed

"I-I am no one!" He continued with a shaking confused voice as if he doesn't know what was really the answer as he stepped few steps away

"Ha very funny, I was going to say the same thing about you!" I laughed

Then suddenly in the blink of an eye the guy held me from the neck and pushed me back to a tree

"Is there is someone else here with you?!" He asked

"No only me and you, you now get your hands of me!" I responded.

"Ok since I am NOT a bad person NOR a Cowered I will let you go... but you didn't see me, I.WAS.NOT.HERE...clear?" He said tightening his grab on my neck

"Okay fine, just let me go...y-you are hurting me!" I said feeling pain in my neck

"Oh sorry, I-I didn't mean to... I am usually not that aggressive" the mysterious guy remaked freeing his grab and looking down at his hands.

"Now go before I change my mind" he warned bringing back the serious look to life.

I took my backpack and run out of the forest looking back to have a last glance at those eyes that got me lost.
