Daryl

She's a real piece of work that girl. She's the only one that doesn't run off at the sight of me. It's odd and sometimes annoying.

I was walking around in the woods, playing with my new crossbow. I still had a hard time using it. That's when I saw her. It was so strange to me, I've never seen someone else other than me and Merle walk these woods. She was laying on the ground, her dark chocolate hair fanned out on the fallen leaves with her eyes closed. At first I was worried I had found a dead body but when I saw her chest rise and fall I was relieved.

She began to toss and turn so I decided to walk away, fearing she would see me. I decided to walk and look from behind a tree. If Merle was here he'd be laughing his ass off. Me, spying on a girl who would've figured?

She sat up and looked around and soon got up and started walking. I was too curious, I had to follow her and figure out what that girl was up to. She seemed very confused and kept looking at her surroundings. All of a sudden the girl started running. She didn't get that far before tripping and falling to the ground. That's when I decided to approach her. If she ever saw me spying on her, she'd have a heart attack.

I tapped on her shoulder and quickly got kicked in the knee. She's definitely a kicker, and a mean one too. I held my knee in pain until it slowly faded. I must've said things that maybe I shouldn't have, judging by her shocked and confused expression. I was embarrassed and wanted to simply forget about it all but when I was about to walk away she stopped me and begged me to help her. She wasn't from here, she was lost. I couldn't just leave her here all alone.

Merle wouldn't stop bugging me after that night when I came back home. She was waiting on the front porch with his arms crossed and with an evil grin on his face. Damn it.

"So who was that? You're new toy? Gotta hand it to you brother, I'm kinda jealous." He patted me on the back.

I didn't say a word, it wasn't worth it. I simply got inside and slammed the font door shut, and the thought quickly vanished from my mind.

She sat at her desk and didn't speak one word. The others didn't speak to her either. Her bright green eyes would travel around the room, looking at everything around her and would then land on me once in awhile.

I didn't stare. I only looked at her from the corner of my eye. What was her deal? Where does she come from? All questions that were going through my mind.

"Evelyn, could you come up here to the board and solve this Math equation?" said the teacher with a bright and fake smile plastered to her face. I hated that woman with a passion.

Everyone turned around and stared at her. Evelyn slowly got up and walked to the front of the class, taking the chalk from Ms. Lebrie's dirty hand. The moment the chalk touched the board it wouldn't stop moving. Everyone watched in awe.

After one minute, Evelyn placed the chalk back where it belonged and walked back to her seat. Even the teacher couldn't believe it.

The bell rang and only one thing came to my mind. I got up as fast as I could and went to the principal's office. I saw my knife right at the corner of the desk. I was about to go in and get it when the man who took it away from me stopped me in my tracks. I was furious. It was my knife. I wasn't going to hurt anyone with it, I forgot it was even there! Simply a habit.

It once belonged to Merle. He gave it to me before leaving the house. It was now mine.

The principal still refused to give it back. I stomped out of the room and by accident bumped into the girl with the green eyes that has troubled my thoughts all morning. "Stupid bitch." I muttered under my breath.

I skipped last period. Who was going to stop me? School is a goddamn waste of time. From the tree I sat in, I could hear the bell ring and the children shouting. I wonder what it was like to be like that, to live a normal life like them. I don't think I'll ever know.

With no more knife, I couldn't sharpen branches I would pick up from the ground anymore. I would do that when I was bored.

"Hey you!" said a girl from behind me.

I turned around to see who it was and saw those same green eyes starting back. Why does she always seem to follow me? I mean, everywhere I look there she is!

Maybe she got lost again. What am I supposed to do, help her everytime she comes in here? Maybe she should just not come here, did she ever think of that? All of a sudden, she takes out my knife from her school bag. Guess I got no choice but to help her now.
