Chapter Six- Calvin's Side

Hearing the voice, Calvin froze, unsure what to think. After a moment, the voice sounded again.

"Hey… common a little help here… please…?" the voice squeaked. Calvin suddenly sprang to life, jumping over the deck of the tree house to the ground below. He landed next to the stuffed toy, yet it was no longer a stuffed toy. Lying sprawled on the ground, lay his old friend Hobbes. Hobbes groaned lightly and Calvin scooped him up into his arms.

"Hobbes! It's you! It's really you!" Calvin exclaimed, his heart beating rapidly. He clung tightly to the tiger, afraid that if he let him go, he would fade away like a dream.

"Yes it's me…" Hobbes said softly. "And it's really you, obviously. Now will you let go? You're crushing me and I'm sore enough as it is!" he snapped. Calvin jerked back then quickly set Hobbes down, allowing him to sit on the ground. They looked at each other for several moments, as if soaking in the feeling, Finally, Hobbes broke the silence. "Well… I see you've grown. A lot." Calvin chuckled a tad nervously and brushed his hand through his wild hair.

"Well yah, puberty has that effect on a kid." He laughed and smiled; overjoyed his friend was finally back. Hobbes smirked a little, then his expression faded. "…What's the matter?" Calvin asked quietly.

"What happened to you Calvin…? Did you abandon me…?" Hobbes squeaked, his voice choking a little. Calvin looked at him, his face going pale. He gasped for breath, not knowing what to say. Hobbes looked up at him quietly, a tear forming in his good eye. His other eye was simply gone, only a cross hatch of scars in its place.

"I… they I… the accident… I tried to find you… god I tried… but mom and dad… they wouldn't even let me see the car…" Calvin whimpered weakly. He prayed that Hobbes wouldn't hate him for what happened, he tried everything he could. "I tried for years, fighting mom and dad to let me see the car, to try and find you! After I got out of the hospital I-"

"My god, you were in the hospital, that's right! Are your parents alright?" Hobbes twitched his tail nervously. Calvin nodded.

"They're alive. Mom was barely scratched. Dad… well both his legs were pinned in the car. He didn't lose them, but he's got little mobility in them. Can't run or shovel snow like he used to. So I always got that job." Calvin grunted, but Hobbes simply chuckled. "Anyways… they say I went a little nuts after that."

"You were ALWAYS nuts Calvin." Hobbes smiled.

"Har har. Yes, but not to the extent of counseling."

"Ouch."

"Yeah, still in it too. They won't bloody believe me. Think I'm some deranged kid with a sob story. They tried to put me on medication for depression and suicidal tendencies-"

"What?"

"I'm NOT suicidal! I never have been! They just think that because I'm a little reckless."

"So how is that different then normal?"

"It's not, exactly my point. Anyways, I ran away form home a lot, trying to find you. I made calls, I asked around, I did everything I could, for years… but I never found you. Mom and dad did everything to try and help me. For awhile they played along with the 'game', but after awhile they just decided I needed to 'grow up and move on', and then the counseling and bullshit began. I hate it with a passion. I still tried to find you but… after awhile…"

"You stopped believing." Hobbes interjected. Calvin sighed and nodded.

"I started to think… maybe they were right. Maybe I was just a hyperactive child with and overactive imagination. I'm… god I… I'm so sorry…" Calvin hung his head and fought tears. "Forgive me… please…"

Hobbes looked up at him and smiled.

"Of course meatball brain…"
