Comfort Me

[Emily]

Here.
Ch. 1-Escape
I squirmed. This was so uncomfortable. Oh, why did Master send me in a box? Why was I even a slave? Oh, yes, I remember, that memory…
It was my tenth birthday. Mother had opened the cupboard, and her face went pale. She yelled. She opened a small compartment where they held their money. Nothing. The smile had dropped off my face as she screamed, “We’ve been robbed!”
We had gone to the bank immediately. They had lost our money. But, they suggested a man down the street, who was very wealthy, to ask for money.
The man agreed, but he warned us to pay him back. My parents nodded.
He helped us for a couple years. But, on my birthday, I had woken up and ran to my parents’ room. They were gone, and I was awake very early. I looked around the house, and called every phone number I knew, but…nothing.
I took all the money that was left and went to the man’s home. He saw me, took my money, and spat at my feet. He said nastily, “My maid said you would come, and your parents were dead.” He had yanked me in, and told the maid to get servant clothes.
“I’m not your slave.” I had cried as I was led away.
“You are now, Blossom.” The man had said, his lip curling up in a nasty smirk. “You never fully paid your debt. Now you will.”
Now I have scars on my body, permanent damage in my heart, and am in a box going to Master’s friend’s palace for a day. They really needed a hard worker for a day.
I shifted into another position. Ouch! I pushed up with my feet, and the box lid pushed open. I started grinning, thinking of my unbelievably good luck. I stepped out. I was in a train. I reached into my pocket, and pulled out a pocketknife, Master’s wallet, and a map. I looked over the map, looked out, and jumped from the train.
FREE!! Free at last, from the last three years!
I started walking when I landed. I was absorbed in my map, I never looked up. I crossed the road, and suddenly, the roar of a car sounded, and I was hit. I spiraled off in the air, nearly blackening out of the pain. Suddenly, someone ran at me. One look at me, and he picked me off and ran, whispering, “Help is coming, girl.” I fell unconscious.

Yeah! Another story! *jumps up and down*

[Emily]

The story you were guessing at. *giggles*

It'll take me awhile to write the next chapter.

[melody]

Ok, that's fine. I'll wait. It's good so far!

[pendulous threads]

Oh! So good! *Hopes for more* I'm so anxious for more! This is great!

[pendulous threads]

Oh...no rush! -_-' I tend to get too excited.

Ch. 2- Why Hi
I yawned, and stretched out on the bed I was on. Wait-What? I hadn’t slept on a bed for three years!
My eyes fluttered open. Slowly, I began to make out a person standing by me. Black hair, brown eyes…Slowly his features clicked into place. He smiled. “Elli!” He called. A brunette hurried into the room. “Yes Tim!” She said. I pushed the covers off me. “Sorry, girl, you have to stay.” The man said, pulling them up again.
“Then, who are you, where am I, and why?” I asked suspiciously. He nodded. “I’m Tim, the doctor, and this is Nurse Elli.” He indicated the girl, and then continued. “You are in the clinic, and you’re here because you got hit by a car and nearly broke all the bones in your body.” I gasped as it came back.
“You aren’t sending me to Master, are you?” I asked nervously. “Who? Who?” Tim said, obviously not listening. I released a sigh of relief.
“Tim, someone here to see our patient.” Elli called. Me? Why is there someone to see me? Questions swirled in my mind. Tim sighed. “Let him in.” He called.
A boy with orange hair and glasses walked over to me. “Hello there.” He said. “Are you ok?” He asked. “I’m fine.” I said, staring at him. Wow…those brown eyes… “That’s good.” He said. “I was the one to save you. Carry you, I mean.”
I stared and him. “Uh…Uh…” I choked out. “My name is Rick, if that’s what you’re asking.” He said, looking strangely at me.
“Wow, that’s a nice name!” I said, smiling.
“What is yours?” He asked.
“Blossom.” I answered.
“Tim!” He yelled suddenly. “What?” Tim called. “Let me take Blossom home!” He shouted. “No. She isn’t strong enough.”
Rick winked at me. “Ok then.” He said disappointedly. He slipped his arms under me. “I’ll go.” He said, lifting me up. He started walking away.
“Good.” Tim said. He turned around. “Hey!” He hollered, as he saw Rick walking out. Rick laughed, used his foot to open the door, and started running with me, enchanted, in his arms.

*Giggles* It's so sweet! Now I know! It's RICK! My...fourth favorite guy! So sweet. ^-^

[Emily]

Yeah, I know. I'm trying to do all five of the boys.
Is your least favorite Kai?

[pendulous threads]

*Shivers* No...you might get a little angry if I said it. But then again...maybe not.

T...i...m...

I just got used to my friend wanting him, so I have up on him.

[Emily]

*raises eyebrow* Why?

[pendulous threads]

I don't know. I was origonally going for him...and then I somehow...ended up with Cliff. Then, my friend wanted Cliff, but ended up with Tim.

So...somehow I backed off of liking Tim when she said, "BACK OFF! HE'S MINE!"

[Emily]

I can see that. -_- Silly Tim.

Ch. 3- Poultry and Boys
“I can walk.” I told Rick, though I wanted to stay in his arms. He nodded, and gently set me on the ground. I winced, but was able to walk. He smiled again.
“Follow me.” He said, taking my arm and pulled me along. I wondered where I was going. He led me past shops and houses, and then started leading me on a small farm, full of…chickens?
“This is the Poultry Farm.” He said, smiling proudly. “Hey! Come back her you!” A girl with pink hair called, chasing a chicken around in circles. The chicken ran at us, and I caught it before it escaped.
“Thanks!” The girl said, beaming. “It’s really hard to catch a chicken. By the way, my name’s Popuri! I’m a chicken lover, because we have a chicken farm!” She giggled, and I saw she had dimples. “Don’t you just love chickens?”
“Um…yeah…” I said. Rick smiled. “I’m gonna show her in, so stay with the chickens, ok?” He asked. She nodded. I followed Rick inside.
“Bloss, this is my mother, Lillia.” He said, introducing me to the lady behind the counter. “Hello.” Lillia whispered. “Would you like to buy a chicken?”
“Actually, mum, she needs a place to stay.” He said. She smiled too. “Of course!” She said. Rick led me upstairs, and into his room. He pulled out a suitcase.
“I have some clothes in here for you.” He explained. I opened, and smiled. Wow, I hadn’t smiled a real smile for three years! Just then the door rang, and I walked down to open it, in one of Popuri’s dresses.
“Welcome to the newborhood!” Three boys cried. They walked in, with no inviting. They started asking me questions. Rick came downstairs. “Hey!” He called. “What are you doing here?” “To take a look at Blossy.” A boy with a purple bandana around his head replied. “Later, and I’m Cliff.” The boy with brown hair said. “Kai.” “Gray.” The other two said as all three left.
Rick shook his head. “Cheaters.” He muttered to me. “Cheat on their girlfriends to take the more hot ones.” He stomped upstairs. I shook my head too, but not in anger, but in amazement. Boys already liked me? Uh-oh. I might have a hard time trying to keep Rick.

[pendulous threads]

They like her? Already? She must be pretty! ^-^ *Wishes she was Blossom*

[Emily]

Yeah...Gotta go bye!
