Chapter two:

"I have something for you Marian." My brain stopped as Guy gave me a small box from his pocket. I slowly opened the box and found a ring. The breath was sucked out of me as he took my chin in his hand, looked me in the eyes and said "Take it, it is to symbolise our great friendship!" He said as he slipped the rind on my finger.

"Oh, thank you Guy." I said, shocked.

"Guy it's time to go." A shout from his father rang down the hall, Guy took one last look at me then strolled down the hall to his father, smirking. I looked at the ring, took it off of my finger and through it on the floor. I ran out of the house, with my bow and arrows, and straight into the forest to shoot some targets and try to pretend that they are Guy's face! I was about to shoot an arrow at the target, when I heard a noise. I was about to look behind me to see what the noise was, when a hand covered my mouth. I was just about to scream, when the person's other hand turned me around and what I saw nearly made me faint right on the spot! A pair of gorgeous, green eyes looked back at me. The eyes were just above a perfect nose, with smile lines beside it, it was all held together by a chiselled jaw line. The most handsome face I had ever seen.

"Sorry about this, I'm hiding from my friend and you might have given me away" the mysterious boy whispered. I tried to say something but his hand was still over my mouth, so instead I just nodded. "Oh, and hello, my name is Robin by the way, Robin of Locksley." Robin smirked.

ROBIN'S POV:

My morning started off as normal, so I decided I go and play hide-and-seek with Much. We were playing when I ran into a girl. She was about to shoot her arrow, when I grabbed her from behind and covered her mouth with my hand. I turned her around to tell her why I grabbed her but then, I saw her eyes and felt lost in them. They were blue on the outer edge, but they have a ring of stunning gold was coating her iris. Oh, and her hair, it was dark brown, but the way the light hit it was extraordinary, like it completely changed colour from brown to blonde. Her face was just as beautiful, I could tell even though most of it was Concorde by my hand. I realised that I was staring when those beautiful eyes blinked back at me. I quickly recovered my composure," Sorry about this, I'm hiding from my friend and you might have given me away." She nodded and I think tried to giggle, but my hand was full over her mouth. I slowly took it off and put one finger up to my mouth to signal for silence, she nodded and smiled. Woah, her smile lit up the whole world! Focus Robin! I chided myself, I would have to explain this to Much later. What in the world was this feeling?

MARIAN'S POV:

The boy, whose name I had just discovered was Robin, I was lost in his eyes, which seemed to be every different shade of green possible, when I heard a sudden noise from behind the tree Robin's back. He motioned to quiet and suddenly, I saw him jump out, just before I heard an unusually high-pitched scream. I gasped when I saw that the high-pitched scream belonged to a boy about 12, my age, he must be Robin friend, I thought. He was a tiny bit taller than Robin, but about the same height as me. He had brown eyes, but they weren't as dreamy as Robin's and he wasn't as chiselled as Robin but he still had the potential to be quite handsome.

"Robin! I told you not to scare me that is why I didn't want to play this game!" The other boy started to shout, Robin just started to laugh. I didn't know whether I should introduce myself or quietly run away so I could spare him the embarrassment of me hearing his shrill scream. But before I could make my mind up, Robin's friend saw a bit of my dress from where I was hiding behind quickly, I pulled my dress closer to me so it wouldn't be so visible. He started to move past Robin to get a better look at whatever he saw. But then, he saw my brown hair, and then he saw all off me, he gasped as he did see all of me.

"Umm… hello," his eyes widened as he stuttered "Um…m-my name I-is Much." I giggled

as he introduced himself.

"Hi Much, my name is Marian." I smiled at him and he smiled back at me.

"Would you like to play with us Marian?" Muck asked curiously and I was about to answer but before I could, Robin did. "Yes, would you?"

"Of course, I would love to!" I replied, eagerly and we played all day long, until the sky was dark and I decided that mu parents would worry me if I wasn't back soon, "Thank you boys so much for such a great day, but I'm going to have to go now, my parents will start to worry if I'm not home soon."

"Oh, do you really have to go?" asked a disappointed Much.

"It is a shame for you to leave now after all, we where having so much fun!" exclaimed Robin.

"I'm sorry, but how about I meet you both in this exact spot, so that we can play again? I asked them both.

"Yes, that sounds great, meet you here at eleven o'clock?"

"Yes, eleven is great," I said, not wanting to end the conversation.

"Goodbye Marian, it was lovely meeting you, and I am already looking forward to tomorrow." Robin said before he kissed my hand. My face went red, even though I tried to hide it. Much just hugged me and said goodbye, after that I went home. That was possibly one of the best day of my life!
