Thanks for the reviews, sorry for the long update, bla, bla, bla. I do not own anything.
Chapter 5
In which Michael takes Sophie outside
"Michael, I'm going out." Howl said simply, bending down and picking up the guitar he never learned how to play.
"New girl to go after?" Michael asked slyly. Howl didn't answer, but it was still obvious that the answer was yes. Sophie peered at him from behind the sofa and saw him walk out the door. She got up and went to the door once it was closed. She saw the doorknob and tried to reach it, but she was still too short.
"Sophie, what are you doing?" Michael asked, walking over to her. She looked up at him.
"Where's Howl going?" she asked, jumping up and trying to reach the doorknob. Michael smiled to himself.
"He's going out into town. I can take you to your private spot, if you want me to." Michael said. She eagerly spun around to face him and grabbed his hand and pulled him to the door.
"Where is it? Where is it?" she asked happily, jumping up and down. Michael reached out his hand, gripped the dial and turned it to the green. He opened the door and a small breeze came to greet them. Sophie gasped as she saw the large field filled with many fantastic and colorful flowers; a few small ponds were in some spots and the large fluffy clouds floated overhead. Sophie smiled widely and ran into the field, still dragging Michael behind her. She found herself on top of a small hill and she let go of Michael. She looked down and smiled again.
"Sophie, what are you thinking…?" Michael asked. She just smiled, sat down and stretched out. Before he knew it, she was rolling down the hill. He ran down as he followed her. She gently rolled to a stop on her back and she remained in the same position once Michael ran to her. She smiled at him and patted the ground next to her, then pointed at a cloud.
"It looks like a bunny!" she said happily. Michael looked up, and then sat next to her. He smiled as he and Sophie watched the clouds together, pointing out random shapes every once and a while. At One point Sophie looked at him with a thoughtful expression, and then said, "Michael, you won't ever leave for a long time like Howl does, right?"
"Of course not." Michael said, looking at her. She smiled and looked at the sky again.
"Good, 'cause you're my friend, right?" she smiled.
"Yeah we are…" Michael chuckled.
Let's see, I know its short, but the next ones are all short. I will try to make them longer.
