I don't own any thing at all
Chapter one:
There were bombs. They slammed the street waking people only for seconds before they died. There was only one to survive. And no it was not the book thief. It was the boy with lemon hair and a lopsided smile. He awoke to see the sky and the colors.
*A SMALL NOTE
The sky was red a deep dark dead color of red...*
Then he looked down he was covered in dust and his hands and legs were bleeding. He sat up and walked to his dead family. He hugged each and every Steiner (except for his father of corse). "Goodbye every one." He said sadly as he took a final look at them. Then Liesle. "Liesle," he whispered. "Liesle." Now he was running towards her. He dropped beside her. "Liesle don't leave me! Liesle wake up! You freaking saumensch wake up! I love you wake up!" He yelled fiercely as he shook her body. I think if it would have been the other way around that she would have done the same. What Rudy didn't know was that Liesle watched him and she cried the whole time. "Rudy please stop!" She kept saying. Her weeping was getting to me now. Then Rudy spoke again. "I-I n-never g-got my k-kiss!" He was sobbing over her. "When you die I'll kiss you, Rudy but please stop!" Liesle was crying painfully. The regret had just reached her. "I promise you'll get you're kiss." She told him even though he could not hear. He then stood up but the thought leaving her was to much to handle he fell over and passed out.
Hours later he woke in a hospital room. Little did he know Liesle was in the room next store and she was alive as ever. Even death cares about happy ness. "Are you ok?" He heard his father ask. "No I'm not ok!" He exclaimed. "But you survived Rudy!" "No one else did." Then the thought of his "dead" best friend came to mind. He saw her smile. He loved her smile. Oh how he longed to see her blonde hair and her smile. How he wanted to hear her swearing and calling him a saukerl. He wanted to steal apples and books with her. He wanted to call her book thief. He was the one who gave her the name and now he could never call her that again. Or so he thought...
In the room next door Liesle lie awake with Frau Hermann at her side. "Did anyone else survive!?" She asked frantically. "I don't think so." Then he came to mind. He passed out he hit the ground so hard. The fall must have killed him. She thought. She wanted to see his lemon hair, his crocked smile. She wanted to steal apples with him. She wanted him to call her saumensch and book thief. And most of all she wanted to hear his famous question. "How about a kiss saumensch?"
