Hi
This is my first story and if I spell some words wrong, plz don't judge me. I'm only in grade 9.
Soo…I realise this isn't a popular topic, but I assure there will be romance and lots of love 3
I just love romance..especially special pairings…not one's that are all, break up, make up, break up, make up, but one's that are really cute and "not meant to be" but are.
So... Here's Bambi X Ronno.
I will think of a better title though.
copyrights in chapter 6
It was spring. It had finally come. Finally! No more food being scarce! No more bed with a hungry stomach. I knew it wasn't really spring until confirmed by the groundhog, but I had a feeling.
"Mother, I'm going to see the groundhog now."
She didn't answer. She was a heavy sleeper. It's not like she cared where I was going though.
I walked out of the thicket. I yawned. My life was a mess. I didn't feel like going on. No one was going to be able to handle it when I told them my secret. The secret that I desired stags.
I loved the way they would compete over a female. So handsome and strong. I could just melt right there.
But I didn't.
It wasn't right for a stag to like other stags. They where supposed to make more deer. Not frolic around, licking another stags face, and pretend-fighting with them.
I could just imagine it.
I wasn't supposed to be this way. There was something wrong with me. There had to be.
I wasn't paying attention to where I was going. I ended up at the river. I felt so empty inside. I walked to the stream, and took a sip. I looked at my reflection.
I was dark brown like my father, but had green eyes like my mothers and my antlers where just starting to grow in. I looked like a big, tough stag that could become the prince, I guess, one day. Not the kind of stag who ate blossoms and kissed other stags.
I had snapped out of thinking like that and paid attention to where I was going to go. The groundhog's burrow was just by the old oak, where the squirrels lived. I would have to go around the meadow and through a little more forest and left to the rabbit's burrow before I would find the old oak. I hurried as fast I could. To find out if it was finally spring. I made it there just in time. I watched from a bit of a distance, but I could still see what was happening.
Grandfather owl, perched on the oak's withered branches announced, "The groundhog!"
Everyone stared at the opening of the groundhog's burrow, Watching.
He had said it too early. "The groundhog!" he announced again. The groundhog peeked his head out, then went back in. everyone awwwed.
Huh. Typical. I looked at the crowd while grand owl tried to fix the problem. There where almost every forest animal here. There where possum's, racoons, quail, rabbit's, even a skunk. But I did notice two deer.
One was light coloured, blue eyes, fairly long eyelashes. I was pretty sure it was a girl. She seemed to be talking to the deer next to her. I looked at it. My world stopped completely.
There was the cutest, handsomest stag I'd ever seen. Of course, 'stag' was a relative term. He still had his spots, and he had no antlers, so technically he was still a fawn, but he was on his way.
Wait a second. He was talking to a girl. I was losing my head. He obviously didn't like stags. I was going bonkers. He and I weren't 'destined' if we where, he wouldn't be talking to that girl.
Maybe they where just friends. Maybe.
"The groundhog!"
Huh? I looked up, while I was zoned out, they had fixed the problem.
The groundhog was walking across the snow-covered forest floor, holding his hands over his eyes whispering "no shadow. Please be no shadow. No shadow please!"
I started walking down lower into the crowd, the two deer where so close. Too close.
People had started singing. The groundhog had not seen his shadow, which meant spring was here. They where too close. Jealousy rose up in me.
"I'll never be frightened again!" the ground hog sang out.
I quickly hopped up to the groundhog and scared him with a "boo!"
He jumped back in his hole, too scared to come back out.
I laughed. I sooo had his attention now.
"Did you see the look on his—hey?"
They left right after I scared him; leaving me alone by the groundhog's burrow.
"Hey! Hey! Where you going? Forest on fire?"
They looked at me, confused, I guess.
"Who are you?" the girl fawn said.
I thought a second. What if he wasn't like me?
"The name's Ronno. And these are the boy's." I said, gesturing to my horns. "Stab and Jab." I said. I hadn't actually named them that, but, I was just jealous of them standing so close. I rubbed my stubs of antlers against a tree. Heavy snow at the top the tree came piling down on me. Covering my body in an icy layer.
"well, I hope you three have a nice day." The girl spoke. I wished the other one would talk. I just wanted to hear a word.
I jumped up. "I wouldn't go that way if I where you. That's where I saw man." I said, exaggerating a little.
All of them gasped.
"you saw man?" the other one said. My heart swelled. I thought it might burst. I loved his voice. It sounded so cute and concerned at the same time witch meant he was concerned..for me.
To impress him a little more, I told a story that wasn't true. At all. "there I was, just walking along when I heard a voice, luring me in. 'I'm here, I'm here.' See, man's got this stick, that can make them sound like one of us, but I'm waaaay too smart for that. So I crept up on them, real quietly."
I snuck up on a branch with two pinecones on it. "Then BAM! I knocked 'em with my trusty antlers."
The branch swang back and knocked the pinecones from the branch into my mouth. I spat them out and waited for a reply from the stag.
"wow that's quite a story." The girl deer said.
"Really?" I said, walking over to them with a smile on my face.
"Yeah. It's unbelievable." She said.
"Yeah unbelievable."
I felt the smile fall off of my face. Anger rose in me.
"You calling me a liar?" I overreacted a bit.
"n-no I—" right after i said it, I felt guilty. I didn't want to seem like I was short-tempered, so I calmed down a bit.
"you wanna spar, do ya?"
"No—I,"
"clobber him Bambi!" the little rabbit next to him shouted.
"Bambi? isn't that a girl's name?"
he frowned. i instantly felt guilty for speaking my mind.
"oh, come on! Just a little friendly competition." I said, backing him up against a tree.
"Ronno!" I heard my mother call me.
"coming mother." I said, not wanting to leave.
"maybe you SHOULD go." Said the girl deer.
"gee, I was only playing around. Isn't that right Bambi?"
"Ronno!"
"I'M COMING!" I snapped. I really didn't want to leave his side. But I forced myself to.
"ma! How many times do I have to tell you?" I groaned. "don't interrupt me when I'm trying to make new friends!" I knew it was coming. I had left without telling her where I was going. While she was awake, anyway.
"sorry dear." She said. We walked toward the stream, where we always went in the morning.
"what did the groundhog say?" she asked when we got there.
"huh?" my thoughts had consumed me in the handsome deer I had seen this morning.
"oh. It's spring. That's good, right? I mean, no more food being scarce."
"mmm." She replied.
I spent my whole day with my head in the clouds, thinking about him.
