Only Time Will Tell
One mistake will change everything, or will it?
Chapter 1
It all started on an ordinary weekend for two best friends. After school or when they can Jess Aaron and Leslie Burke appear and explore their private world of Teribithia. A place of freedom, and imagination. Even a place, to face fears or triumphs of their ordinary lives. Today they decided just to talk in their tree house or in Teribithia their kingdom. Jess was lying on the floor while Leslie was sitting next to him. He asked her with a calm tone "Do you think May Belle had a point?" she looked at him with a questioned look that said many things but Jess believed it meant (What do you mean?). He stood up to look at Leslie; "You know when you gave me that present, on the bus". "Oh" she said softly and looked away. They had a five-minute silence but then Leslie broke it "Do you think?" she said nervously, he smiled "Kind of…." Then he started to feel a weird sensation in his stomach he guessed it was because he was hungry. "Um… I'm hungry want to go back?" he asked, she nodded and they both left.
After Jess had his snack, his dad told him to get groceries from the store. He didn't want to go alone so he went by the Burke's house. He knocked at the front door, a couple of minutes Bill or Mr. Burke opened the door. He smiled "Hey Jess" he smiled back, "Dad, said that I had to get some groceries, I was wondering of Leslie would like to come?" he nodded then turned his head to call for Leslie. She came out of her room then slowly walked down the stairs, which gave Jess the same feeling he had an hour ago. (She's seems different to me I wonder how, but it feels like I…) he could her someone calling him "Jess! Jess!" he realized that Leslie was already next to her father, she smiled Jess felt embarrassed. She then spoke "Jess did you hear me? I said I would love to go" Jess smiled "Um… yeah I mean great!" what Jess didn't know is that is that Mr. Burke saw the way he was looking at his daughter and decided to interfere to find the truth. "Hey, I can drive you too!" Jess looked away from Leslie to her father "Sure!". Mr. Burke nodded and they headed for his car, Jess opens the door for Leslie then gets in and sits next to her. "Ready to go?" Mr. Burke asks from the front seat. They both nodded and in unison they both said "Yeah!" Mr. Burke looked away from the two her were smiling at each other "Okay were off!" then they drove off!
