Summary: Sometimes the things you don't understand turn into your greatest fears...What if there was no understanding or predicting certain things or a certain person? What if that person could predict better than any of the members of Gideon's team?
Chapter 1: Will you?
He's almost the same age as my brother. Only about eight months younger, it's funny to me that I am so much younger than both of them. My brother is nine years older than I am and the young boy I can't help but watch is eight years older than I am, give or take a month. I just turned five three days ago and I am really enjoying the toys my mother bought me. Who knew that bouncing a ball and calculating the physics involved could be so amusing? He should be walking by in the next minute or so, his schedule is never interrupted not even by the natural elements.
He's the only one that has ever been able to distract me from what I am doing no matter if it was homework or a game the result is the same, my attention is only for him. There is no difference for my attention today and as such a fact I do not see the oddly shape rock that I bounce my new ball on. The surprise that makes its way through me is tremendous and I can't help but squeak in protest as my bouncing kick ball flies over my mother's hedges and out towards the street where he is now walking.
I rush after it. I can't lose that ball, mother would be upset. Hurtling through the gap in the hedges I suddenly see my distraction standing but ten feet away holding my ball. He must have been able to catch it. Gulping silently I watch as he looks over the rubber toy. His eyes are so analytical and so full of knowledge that I can't imagine there being much more that he needs to learn. He looks up and his brown eyes spot me.
I can't move. How am I supposed to say anything to him, I'm in awe. I wasn't prepared to talk to him. I was going to sound stupid. I just knew it. Biting my lip I took a couple steps forward and held out my hands. The gesture obviously told him that the ball was mine. He closed the distance between us and smiled at me while handing me my toy back. I couldn't help but smile back. It was just too easy.
Looking in his eyes I'm reminded of how I first noticed him. Biting my lip I tip my head and look up into his eyes. A question raging in my mind, it's driving me insane. I have to ask him. I have to know.
"You're name is Spencer right?" He looks shocked that I know his name. But he nods slowly.
"Yes it is. How did you know that?" He's analyzing me now. Those eyes are trying to pick me apart but I can't let them.
"I have a question for you." I ignore his question. He wouldn't understand how I know his name…or anything else about him for that matter.
He is flabbergasted. He doesn't know how to respond to me so he just nods. He'll answer my question. I smile at him and hold out a string bracelet that I made a couple weeks ago. "When we're older will you promise to find and save me?"
His eyes widen and he just stares. I can see his mind whirling, his eyes are so expressive. I can see that he needs some help, he is much too confused. I take the bracelet and tie it loosely around his right wrist. His eyes move from me to the small threads. I smile at him again. "Please?"
He nods, his voice is cracking slightly when he answers me, "Uhhh…sure. But why do you think…HEY?"
I have turned from him and run with my ball back through the hedges. Back to my haven, I am safe for now. I stop and turn back, careful to hide so that he can't see me. I watch him as he stares at where I was. I close my eyes in relief when he just glances down at the bracelet. He doesn't take it off; he doesn't just shake away what I have asked. He will remember my request. That's good because I know we won't see each other again until he finds me. Backing away from my hiding spot I run into my home and up into my room, locking myself away.
Lying on my bed I stare at the dark ceiling, it's a starry night scene. My eyes flutter shut and I am soon fast asleep.
