It was a soggy Sunday afternoon with grey skies and outbursts of rain now and then. I wandered along the wet streets littered with leaves blown down by the wind, which now ruffled my purple hair. My legs were aching and I was shivering in my wet coat.

'Are you sure you know where we're going?' I asked turning to Charlie walking beside me.

'Yes, I'm sure.' He said rolling his eyes.

'But don't you think we would have found it by now. Admit it. We're lost!'

'No, we are not. We're nearly there anyway.'

I didn't say anymore. The country lanes were deserted and there wasn't a car in sight. It was cold and I wanted to go home.

'Let's look again tomorrow.' I said when we came the end of a yet another muddy lane.

Charlie ignored me. He wasn't listening any more. He looked straight ahead, not talking, not thinking. I sighed. Charlie not thinking and going ahead with a plan anyway are never a good combination.

'It's there. It's there!' he shouted suddenly pointing at a tree with ribbons blowing in the breeze tied around it's branches. We've been looking for this tree since we got here after over hearing someone talking about it at the campsite we're staying at and we've finally found it down this narrow little lane.

Charlie ran up to the tree and took a piece of ribbon from his bag. He tied the ribbon round a branch, closed his eyes and made a wish. I longed to ask him what he'd wished for, but he would never tell.

'Your turn!' He said to me smiling his warm smile, his hair blowing into his face, wet and tangled.

I take my strand of ribbon and tie it round the tree. I close my eyes wondering what to wish for. I have lots of wishes but only one piece of ribbon. So many options, only one choice. Then it comes to me.

I wish for 10 more wishes.

I open my eyes and tied the ribbon round the branch next to Charlie's. I close my eyes again and make nine more wishes, hoping each one will come true. I step back from the tree to join Charlie, watching the colourful ribbons flap in the wind. He wraps an arm round me and I snuggle into him. Then I reach up and brush his messy hair out of his face and make my tenth wish…

Good?Bad? Review please :)
