Ch. 10 Blissful smile

POV: Kuki

I walked over to the two door closet and opened. I opened and I could feel my jaw drop. It was a huge walk in closet full of clothes of all kinds. I walked over to the sweaters and coats were and started looking.

"Hm. I wonder what I'm going to wear," I giggled. Right after I said that I shook my head and bit my bottom lip to keep me from smiling.

'What are you thinking Kuki? You shouldn't be worried about what to wear but how to get out of here! That's why you even suggested going outside in the first place.' I started looking at all the cute clothes and sighed. 'Well if I have to choose something to wear it might as well be cute.'


POV: Anti-Wally

I waited patiently outside of Kuki's bedroom. After about five minutes I started to get annoyed though. I sighed and ran a hand through my hair. I was about to yell through the door when I heard it open. I pushed myself off the wall and waited for her to come out.

As she stepped out I could feel a light blush spread across my face.

"How do I look?" I could also see she was blushing. She was wearing a long tan coat; a long light colored pink shirt, black leggings, with matching pink boots, a scarf that wrapped lousy around her neck and a cute pink hat.

I smiled down at her and bowed to her. I gently took her right hand in mine and kissed it lightly. I smiled up at her.

"You look absolutely wonderful princess," I told her. Her face got a darker shade of red and she pulled her hand away from my grasp, and held it to her chest with a face that looked both embarrassed and pissed.

"You're smooth talking won't work on me!" She shouted at me. I sighed and stood up straight. I was trying not to lose my temper. She looked up at me with the same expression but then it turned to surprise when she saw what I was wearing.

"When did you have time to change into a jacket?" I looked down at my blue coat and gave her a cocky smile.

"Kuki dear you took so long to get dress, I had enough time to change and have some breakfast," I told her sweetly. Her eyes seemed to become a fire like color and she threw a punch into my shoulder. It barely hurt and she looked so serious, I couldn't hold back my laughter.

She looked up at me and gave me a serious look.

"What's so funny?" Even with her looking so serious her voice still sounded so sweet, that just made me laugh harder.

"You! You're just so funny Kuki!" I stopped laughing long enough to tell her. I had to hold my gut it started to hurt. In the middle of my laughing I heard someone else start to laugh as well. I looked over at Kuki. She was holding her hand over her mouth but I could still hear her laughter. It sounded close to a small bell. I stopped laughing and stood up. I walked over to her and held out my hand.

She stopped laughing and realizing that she just laughed with me, she started to blush. I chuckled at her and walked a little closer to her with my out stretched to her. She looked at my hand then to me. With hesitation she slowly reached for my hand. As soon as I felt the warmth of her hand in mine I started gently pull her to the front door.

"Where are we going?" She asked in a whisper. I looked back at her couldn't help but smile.

"I'm taking you to the most beautiful spot around," I told her.


POV: Kellie

I waited outside on the steps in front of the tree house. When I finally heard the door open with a squeak I jumped up and turned to see Wally. He was wearing a light black jacket with blue jeans. I smiled up at him and he just gave me a nod. I grabbed his hand and pulled him down the street.

"Where are you taking me?" I smiled up at him.

"There's a fair in town and I thought it would be fun to go there," I smiled up at him. I stopped pulling him and just walked beside with my hand still in his. He looked down at me and back up.

"Not to be rude but since we're going to a fair; didn't you get a little bit to dressed up?" I looked down at what I was wearing. A light purple jacket, a light purple dress and purple chucks, all of which I borrowed from Kuki's closet. All the clothes were a little bit to big but I thought it looked nice.

"I think I look nice," I told him in a whisper. He didn't look down at me but I could see an emotion flash on his face then leave in an instance.

"I didn't say you didn't look nice," he told me in with a monotone voice. I smiled blissfully and leaned into a little.

'Why can't things just stay like this?' I was brought out of my thoughts by the smell of food. I opened my eyes and saw that we were at the entrance of the fair. I gasped and grinned at all the things around me. Wally and I walked up to the ticket booth.

A portly older looking man sat behind the glass booth. He had glasses on and wore a kind smile on his face.

"Ten tickets please," Wally told him. He let go of my hand and got out his billfold. The portly man got ten tickets and held them in his hands.

"That will be five dollars please," the man said. His voice didn't match his body. His voice was deep and sounded soothing. The portly man and Wally swapped the money and tickets. I grabbed Wally's hand and pulled him towards the caramel apple booth.

Wally stood beside and looked down at me. I smiled up at him and then looked back at the apples.

"Do you want one?" He asked. I looked up at him with a big smile on my face.

"Can I?" I must have surprised him by my response because he just looked at me for a few seconds, and then walked to the open window.


POV: Wally

I walked up to the apple cart and looked at all the different kind of apples. The girl behind the window had her long brown hair in a ponytail. I could see her eyes light up as soon as she saw me. She walked over to the window and gave me a friendly smile.

"Hello hon. What can I get for you?" Her voice had a slight southern accent but it wasn't that noticeable.

"How much is one caramel apple with nothing on it?" She looked at the paper with all the prices on it.

"That would be two dollars even," she told me. I reached into my back pocket and got my bill fold. I pulled out to bucks.

"I'll take one please," I told her. She took my money and put it into the cash register.

"It will take a few minutes hon. Why don't you go wait on that bench over there and my little brother will bring it out to you," she gave me a smile. I nodded and grabbed Kellie's hand. We walked over to the bench where the one girl pointed to and waited. Kellie looked over at me the down at her hands. I out my arms on the back of the bench and crossed my legs.

The awkward silence was broken by a boy around the age of twelve or thirteen walking over to us with a caramel apple on a stick. He had the same colored hair as his sister and the same friendly smile. As he walked closer I could see his smile get bigger.

"Who ordered the caramel apple," he asked. I pointed to Kellie and the boy handed her the apple. She smiled brightly at him and gently took the apple from him.

"Thank you so much!" A little blush crossed the boy's smiling face. He was about to turn and leave when he stopped and looked at Kellie.

"Hey my name is Seth. What's yours?" He asked Kellie. She took a lick of her apple and smiled at him.

"My name is Kellie," she told him with a caramel covered smile. His face got a lot redder and he started to scuffle his feet in the dirt.

"Hey Kellie?" He rubbed the back of his neck nervously. As I looked him I could tell what he was about to do.

'I know that look anywhere. He wants to ask Kellie out.' I found myself almost smiling.

"Yes?" Kellie asked completely oblivious to what the Seth was going through.

"I um….I get off my job in about an hour. Would you um….mind coming back here so you know….we um...could ride the Ferris wheel together." He looked at me and gave me a serious face. "As long as it's okay with you sir." I nodded and gave him thumbs up. His smile seemed to grow a little more if that was possible.

I looked over at Kellie who was looking at Seth. She looked up at me then back at him. I leaned down close to her ear and whispered.

"Give him a chance he seems like a nice guy," I whispered. She looked at me and gave me a nod and a smile.

"I would love to Seth," she told him. I could tell from the look on his face he wanted to jump for joy and scream to the world that he was the luckiest person in the world.

'Believe me kid I know that feeling.' His sister yelled for him to come back.

"Alright I'm coming!" He raced off back to his work not before turning around and waving to us. "See you in an hour!" We both waved back at him. I looked down at Kellie and realized that she was looking at Seth. I grabbed her hand and pulled her towards the Ferris wheel.

"Where are we going Wally?" She asked me. I looked down at her and saw that she already ate all her apple and the caramel was all over her face. I knelt down and with the back of my sleeve I cleaned her face.

"I'm going to ride the Ferris wheel with you. That way you won't get scared on it when I'm not there," I told. She smiled brightly at me and nodded her head.


POV: Kuki

Anti-Wally gently walked me through the forest. All the leaves were changing color and it was just a breath taking sight. I tried to seem like I wasn't enjoying it but I couldn't help the smile that appeared on my face. The sun was an hour away from setting so it just made the whole forest look even more beautiful.

I was to busy watching all the things around I didn't realize that Anti-Wally stopped. So I walked right into him.

"Why did you stop?" I asked him.

"Look Kuki. This is what I wanted to show you," his voice was so sweet sounding. I looked over his shoulder to see nothing but roses. I walked away from him and went to see them up closer. The colors of the leaves only made these roses look more beautiful.

They were a light orange almost peach color. And the fragrance they gave off almost smelled like an apple blossom tree. I reached for one but Anti-Wally stopped me.

"Don't do that Kuki dear. Even if these roses look beautiful their thorns hurt," he told me. He let go of my hand and walked over to a rose and touched its petals lightly. "Even the most beautiful rose in the world needs thorns or there would be nothing to protect it." I looked at him confused.

"Why does a rose need protection?" He turned to look at me and smiled. He gently plucked the rose he was touching from the bush and brought it over to me. His hand wasn't bleeding because he was really careful not to touch the thorns.

"The roses need protection from people because humans are jealous of their beauty. If roses didn't have thorns people would probably be killing them off so that they could be even more beautiful than the roses themselves." I held out the rose to me but I wasn't careful and a thorn got me.

I drew my finger back and held it close to my chest. I watched as Anti-Wally gently broke off all the thorns from the rose, his hands were bleeding but it didn't seem to bother him. I looked down at my finger and noticed the clouding had stopped.

"Even if the roses are jealous of your beauty," he told me.

"What do you mean?" I asked him. He smiled at me and me the rose. I gently took it from him and smelled it.

"You don't have thorns to protect you. And the roses know your beauty doesn't even compare to theirs so they tried to get rid of you," his voice was so soothing. I blushed at his comment. I smelled the rose again and one question kept popping into my head.

"What is the name of these roses?" I asked.

"It's called the Autumn Rose. It is the only rose that blooms around this time," he told.

"What a beautiful name," I smiled. Anti-Wally walked over and put his hands around mine.

"Not nearly as beautiful as your name." I could feel my entire face get hot. I looked away from him. A gust of wind sent a shiver down my spine. He grabbed my hand and started to take me back to the house.

"It's getting cold. Let's get back to the house," he smiled back at me. I nodded and held the autumn rose close to me.

'I miss you Wally.' I could feel one tear go down my cheek.


POV: Wally

As Kellie and I got on to Ferris wheel I could see how scared she was. As we got into our seat she sat real close to me and hugged my arm. I patted her head.

"It's okay. It's always scary the first time you ride it," I told her. She nodded her head up didn't let go of my arm. We stopped every few seconds so some other people could get on.

"How do you know this is my first time on it?" She asked me. I shrugged my shoulders.

"I don't this just seems like a day of first for you," I told her. Son we stopped right at the top and looked down at the ground. I looked down at Kellie and saw that she had her eyes closed tight. I gently shook her shoulder.

"Kellie look at how beautiful it is up here," I told her. She opened her eyes slowly and looked at everything. A bright smile slowly appeared on her face. I patted her head and leaned back against the seat.

"You know this is the first time I have ever had actual fun?" I looked down at Kellie; she had a sad look on her face.

"Why is that?" I asked. By this time she let go of my arm and was looking at the ground below. She sighed and didn't speak above a whisper.

"My parents were really strict. They didn't let me go to a normal school, I couldn't make any friends, I always had to be perfecting all of my lessons," she told me. I could hear the sadness in her voice.

'That's why we haven't had to deal with people asking why she alive.'

"I didn't ever meet anybody else in my family. All that I had was my parents no one else. I could never leave the house unless I was with one of them. I couldn't talk unless spoken to. I always felt sad inside. I think that's one of the reasons why I'm so close to all four of you, Abby, Hoagie, Nigel, and you. I really want to save Kuki too. I want to meet everyone I can. I want to live!" By then tears were streaming down her face and she was crying into her hands. I scooted over and held her tightly. I rubbed her back and laid my head on top of hers.

"You know I will always be there for you, and so will everyone else. As soon as we save Kuki you can add her to your friendship list too," I told her. She stopped crying and looked up at me. She gave me a small smile.

"Thank you Wally," she mumbled. As soon as we got off the Ferris wheel I wiped her tears away and we still had twenty minutes to kill so we went on a few more rides. We went on a roller coaster with Kellie decided right away that she loved, and then went through the haunted house which was more funny then scary.

As we finished eating our cotton candy I saw that we had five minutes so I grabbed Kellie's hand and took her to the merry go round. I gave the guy running it our last two tickets. I picked her up and put her on a white horse and I stood next to her.

"What is this ride? Is like a roller coaster?" She asked excitedly. I shook my head.

"This ride is just where you go around in circles. Trust me it's fun," I told her. She nodded her head. As the ride started going I could tell that Kellie was a little disappointed but soon she started laughing and giggling. I could feel myself wanting to smile but I just couldn't. When we got off the ride I looked at my cell phone and saw that it was time to meet up with Seth.

I grabbed Kellie's hand and walked with her over to the apple cart. The Seth kid was standing beside the cart with his sister. He saw us and waved, Kellie and I waved back. Seth looked at Kellie and grinned.

"Okay kid, don't hurt Kellie. I mean it," I told with a serious expression. He gave me a look that told me I put the scare in him. I gave him a pat on the head. "And have fun." He smiled at me. He looked at Kellie and gave her his best smile.

"Come Kellie! Let's have some fun!" He cheered. Kellie giggled, they walked off together smiling. I looked over at his sister who was also watching them leave.

"You know Seth is every fond of that sister of ours," she smiled. I didn't correct her I just nodded my head. I heard her sigh; I looked over and say that she was rubbing her head. "Hey I'm not trying to be mean or rude but are you the guy at school that lost his mom and little brother?"

"Yes. And don't worry you're not being rude," I told her.

"I know you probably don't know this but I'm your neighbor," she told me. I gave her a confused look. "I mean at the tree house. I'm your guys' neighbor on the right side. And I just wanted to ask you something."

'Oh no! Is she going to ask me out?'

"You know the bold British guy? Is he single?" I looked over at her to see that her tan cheeks had a blush on them.

"Yes he's single and I know where you can find him right now," I told in a matter of fact way. She turned to me with a great bug smile.

"Really! Where?" She asked me. I could see how excited she was. I chuckled at her.

"Before I tell you, can we introduce ourselves to each other first," I held out my hand to her. "Hello. My name is Wally and you are?" She smiled at me and shook my hand.

"My name is Holly. It's nice to meet you Wally." She told me with a big smile.

"Likewise," I almost smiled again. I told her that if she headed for Oak Park she could find Nigel on one of the benches. She smiled at me.

"Thanks Wally! So Nigel is his name. I like it," she smiled. She was about to leave when she remembered Seth. "Man! What am I suppose to do about Seth!"

"I can walk him home. Don't worry about it," I told her. She gave me a big hug and rushed off.

"Thanks Wally! I owe you big time!" She screamed. People stopped to stare at me but I just ignored them and walked over to the Ferris wheel.


POV: Kellie

As Seth and I reached the top of the Ferris wheel I looked over saw how beautiful everything was.

"Wow! Isn't it beautiful?" I asked him.

"It sure is," he told me. I looked over at him and noticed he wasn't looking at the scenery but at me. He had a gentle smile on his face. He reached over and put his hand on top of mine, I could feel a blush come to my face. I looked up at him and noticed that he was getting closer to me. I closed my eyes and leaned in a little bit more.

I felt his lips touch mine and it felt like fireworks were going off. We stopped kissing and smiled at each other. It wasn't a long kiss but it was a sweet innocent one.

"So….um….are we…you… know together?" Seth asked me. I nodded and gave him a hug. When it was our turn to get off I saw Wally at the bottom waiting for us.

"Hey. Did you guys have fun?" He asked us. I reached over for Seth's hand and smiled. He patted my head and punched Seth lightly in the shoulder. "Oh Seth. I'm walking you home. You're sister had some other stuff to do." Seth nodded and we walked hand in hand.


POV: Nigel

As I was sitting in the same spot like always, I closed my eyes and sighed. I felt someone sit down beside me. I looked out of the corner of my eye to find a really pretty girl with brown hair sitting next to me. I sat up and looked over at her.

She looked over at me as well and gave me a smile. I could feel my heart skip a beat. She held out her hand.

"Hello my name is Holly and you are?" I reached out my hand and as soon as our hands touched I could feel the corner of my lips pull up.

"Hello Holly. My name is Nigel," I smiled.
