Jonas's POV

So, this place is called Village. I like it so far, it's very different from my old community. The people are much more friendly here, and there is food in their own dwellings. Gabe seems to be taking a liking to this odd new place also. He took a 2 hour nap earlier!

Kira's father Seer, is a middle-aged blind man from another community as well. Kira is a nice girl. She is a couple years older than I, and she has a crooked leg. I've noticed that she likes to sew things. There are blankets and pictures everywhere in this little house.

"Do you like your room?" Kira asks from across the room.

"Yes, it's perfect! Gabriel likes your pictures on the wall, he keeps pointing up to them." I say.

Kira smiles at me and looks at the pictures on the wall that she made. "I like them too. Father says I should sell them for extra money, but I don't think that's necessary."

I just shrug my shoulders. I don't know what to say to her. Her face is very pretty, I just realized that. I can't stop staring at her eyes. She looks up and our eyes meet. She gives me a warm smile, and looks around the room awkwardly.

"So, where are you two from?" Kira asks me.

"Well, we're from a community about…50 miles away" I say, estimating how far I have traveled.

"Wow, it must have taken you such a long time to get here!!" Kira says, eyes wide.

I nod my head and look at Gabe. He's sitting on the floor, staring at his feet in amazement. Sometimes, that child makes me wonder…

"Oh! Gabe, you are the cutest baby ever! Look at you!" Kari exclaims, moving herself from her chair to the floor. She scoots over to Gabe and puts him in her lap. "You are just too cute! I could just eat you up."

Gabe looks at me is if to ask me 'who in the world is she?'. I just smile at him. He looks back at Kira and dodges her face with his. They clonk heads and Kira lets out a loud 'ouch'!

Kira's POV

"Ouch, Gabe! What did you do that for?" I ask the baby, who is clapping his hands together as if he is happy to have caused me pain.

"I'm so sorry! Gabe is a little rambunctious today. I think he's just excited to not be traveling.

I smile. I don't blame him for being a little crazy! Gosh, Jonas is so cute! I stare at his beautiful blue eyes. He's staring at one of my pictures. I stare at his eyes. He looks back at me, and I turn my hear fast, like I was never looking at him. I think he knows I was looking at him. He smiled at me.

"Well, what is going on in here?" My father says as he walks into the living room area.

"Oh nothing, we're just talking." I reply.

Jonas smiled at my father. I can tell my father really likes this boy.

"Why don't you two go for a walk?" My father asks me and Jonas. "I can watch Gabriel here. Kira, you can show Jonas around Village!"

I hesitate. "Um, sure I guess! Jonas, want to?" I ask.

"I guess, if you want to we can!" Jonas says to me, smiling.

As I am walking out of the room, all I can think about is how excited I am to hang out with Jonas!

Jonas's POV

Yes! I am so excited right now! I can't wait for this tour around Village. I think I'm falling for this strange girl that I just met. I cannot decide if I like this yet, but I think I do.

"Jonas, do you like Village so far?" Kira asked me smiling.

"Yes! It is very nice. It's peaceful!" I respond smiling back. For at least 30 seconds, Kira and I look into her eyes. I tell her I love her in my mind. LOVE HER?! Am I a crazy fool? I don't love her, I have only just met her!! This is ridiculous! I have never loved someone like this, no, I don't love Kira. But it's like she read my mind.

Kira looks away from me awkwardly. I think she might know what I was thinking. Gosh, I am so stupid, I should of known she could tell what I was thinking!

"Yes well, you haven't seen any of our parties!" Kira says, like nothing just happened. "I have to say, we get a little crazy sometimes!"

"I think I need to take a little break, I'm kind of tired from my journey, and I'm not rested enough to walk a lot right now. Can we sit on the bench other there please?" I ask.

"Oh sure! I can just tell you about everything over there! But Jonas, can I ask you something?" Kira asks me.

Oh gosh, she is going to ask me if I really love her. What am I going to say. I don't even know the answer to that! I've known her for like, 8 hours! "Um, sure" I blurt out.

"Well, I know you have just met me and everything, but I don't think this question I am going to ask you has to do with that. Well, Jonas, do you think…Do you think I…beautiful?" Kira asks me with kind of a wincing face. Like she is ready for the worst.

What am I going to tell her? I do think she is beautiful, but should she know that? Oh, whatever. "Yes, I think you are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen." I say, with a warm smile.

Kira looks at me in shock. "Really?"

"Really." I say. And as soon as those word leave my mouth, I think of Fiona.

Was it okay?? I thought they're being a bit forward, but whatever, it works for me!!
