Two- I Should Have Been Paying Attention

"Excuse me…miss…are you okay? Please answer me."

Camellia slowly opened her eyes. After blinking several times to clear her vision, she was startled to see a young man's worried face only a foot away from her own.

"Who are you? Where am I? What happened?" She cried as she frantically tried to sit up, as she did an excruciating pain exploded on the back of her head. She whimpered in pain, doubling over, then started to cry uncontrollably.

"Miss are you okay? Please do not cry." The young man pleaded as he placed his hand gently on her shoulder.

Camellia looked up into his sad green eyes.

"I am fine except my head hurts terribly Mr….um…"

"Peregrin…Peregrin Took, but you may call me Pippin though. That is what all of my friends call me. Did I miss hearing your name?" Pippin asked playfully.

"Camellia…but please call me Ella, I like it much better." She smiled widely.

Hmmm…he is quite handsome…

"Here let me help you up, we had better get you to a healer so that she can make sure that you have no injuries. Other than your headache I mean."

"Thank you Mr. Took." She replied as she gently accepted his hand. When finally standing, she tried hard not to giggle. Finally a guy that I am taller than. Not by too awfully much but at least a good 6 inches.

"Pippin, do call me Pippin. Mr. Took sounds so formal and it makes me think of my father not of myself."

"Only if you promise to call Ella."

"Alight Ella, you have got yourself a deal."

He lead her down a pleasant path through the woods. Suddenly Pippin realized that he was still firmly holding her hand. Oh well, she does not seem to notice or to mind. For some reason I do not mind either.

"Pippin, where are we by the way."

"We are in the Shire, near the Great Smials in Middle Earth."

"Oh okay…." Where is this Middle Earth that he speaks of….maybe somewhere near the equator. I really should have paid more attention in Geography class instead of daydreaming…oh well.

After a walking for about three or four more miles worth of walking, they finally came to the edge of the forest. Camellia suddenly gasps.

"Oh Pippin it is so beautiful here!"

"I suppose it is, isn't it." Pippin replies looking up at the glorious sunset , the vast green fields with colorful flowers, and the Great Smials in the distance. "Come, I must get you to my home. My mother and sisters will be most glad for the company and we are nearly there already."
