1 Finding you

The dirt road crunched beneath my feet as I made my way through the the forest trail. The smell of near by river channels filled my senses as I calmly paced myself, observing the nature all around me. You know that feeling that settles in your chest, not that anxiety ball but that release of pressure? This, This was my release.

I found an empty space near the edge of the brooke and softly made my way towards it. The sun shined straight though the tree tops making it seem almost surreal. All I wanted was to soak up everything, feel the plants and dirt under my feet and cool off in the water.

When I reached the edge I took off my shoes, placed them on a near by rock, took of my top and hung it over a branch along with any other articles of clothing. The pebbles below were subtly cold but perfectly rested under my feet as I made my way deeper to the center of the river stream.

I melted with the patterns of the river and slowly submerged my body into the water. My aches my troubles everything for one moment were washed away like dirt. My ears sit just below the water and I stare at the willows hanging down above me, taking in their grace as the danced for me and the wind gentle hummed.

A ripple of water caused me to jerk up.

"He..hello?" I stuttered

I clumsly started grappling for the edge of the stream toward my clothing.

"Hello? who's watching me?!" I mumbled out nervously.

Finally I made it to the edge, bolted out of the river snagging what I could, then I saw...a long bit of black hair blowing behind a tree.

"Look, I'm going I didn't realize some one was here. I'm extremely sorry, I honestly thought this was a private location." my voice trails off as a pale face peered out, quickly retracting as I made eye contact.

I was a little pissed at this point. Just what I needed for my day...a peeping Tom. He obviously didn't want me to leave or he would have shown so. At this moment, forgetting I was down to my knickers, I hastily stomped over to the tree to see who this pervert was since they weren't going to talk.

"Hey! I'm talking to you!" I blurted making my way around the giant Willow tree. "What do you think you are doing watching me out here! I'm going too..." I trailed off.

His face looked up at me and I froze. That face, it was so memorizing so serine that I forgot what I was even doing..I wanted to come closer.
