Into The Woods discussion

Alec felt content. The meadow was his favourite place to be. Bending fown, he grabbed a flower and tutned to Janelle."Hey Janelle. Here." He held it out to her.

Janelle smiles and takes it "Thank you Alec it's beautiful."

"They all are." He looked around and started to run.

Janelle smiles and starts running after him. ((brb))

((okay))
Bell looked up startled. She had heard running.

"Heyy Beeeelllll!!" Alec yelled as he ran towards her. He glanced back at Janelle.

Alec reached Bell. Grinning, he poked her head "Hey." He loker over snd saw another girl."Ello there!" He waved to her.

Janelle smiles At Alec and Bell. She looks around

Alec walks away from Bell and Janelle and closer to the other girl."Would you like to join us?" He looked at her, giving her a warm smile.

Bell sighed when Alec. Sge looked at Janelle curiously.She had seen her many times befire but had never spoken with her. Shyly, she said,"Hi. I'm Bell but you probably know that." She looked away from Janelle, wondering if she should leave. Bell didnt trust nor like people.

Janelle smiles "Sure." She said. Janelle looks at Bell. "Hi Bell, I'm Janelle." She said softly though shyly.

"You seem lonely." He held out his hand, but took it back."Sorry, I firgot. I'm Alec."

Bell was definiatly leaving. "Got to go Janelle. It was nice meetin you."She quickly got up and hurried away before Alec could drag her back.

"Alright goodbye Bell." Janelle said wondering why she was leaving so quickly. She didn't say anything rude to her.

Bell barely glanced back. She hurried away and made shre that she paid attention to footsteps next time.

Janelle gets confused. But it was proabbly because Bell was being protective. She understood that but didn't understand anything else of it.

"Cool. So, would you like to?" He looked at her questioning. He didnt want to keep Janelle waiting.

Janelle just looks around.

Alec's eyes glance quickly to where Janelle is. All by herself! "Where did Bell go?!" He murmured ti himself.

Janelle just waits pateintly she wasn't going to be unpatient.

Alec stepped away from Lilly."Hold on." He alked to Janelle." Come with me." He took her hand shyly and looked at her, wondering if it was okay.

Janelle looks up she takes his hand not caring "Alright." She said.

He led her back to Lilly."Sorry about that." He dropped Janelle's hand, not knowing if she was fine with him holding it."This is Janelle. Janelle, this is Lilly."

Janelle smiles gently at Lilly. "Hi Lilly." She said shyly. She felt alright of Alec holding her hand then letting go she didn't care.

Alec sat down and started to play with the flowers. He arranged them in different ways. Pink and purple togeher. Blue and pink together. Holding them up, he showed the girls."Lilly? Janelle?" He looked to them for opinions. Afterwards, he woukd feel like a five year old girl.

Janelle sees them and looks at them. She smiles at them both.

Alec nodded. Smiling, he threw the flowers up and watched as they landed in each girls hair.

"Are you okay?" He looked at Lilly.

Janelle smiles when Alec throws them. She hasn't been this happy in years.

Janelle wonder's what's wrong with Lilly. "What's wrong Lilly?" She asked softly and gently.

Alec lookex at the two girls. He lay down, knowing that it would be better if they talked.

Siting back up again, he looked at Lilly."There has to be a reasom behind your sadness."

"Are you sure?" She asked

Janelle smiles and asked "Then why are you sad?" She asked still gently.

Alec looked at her and smiled."Duh. She likes me thts why." He aited to see if Lilly would smile at his joke.

"Remembering why you dont smile?"He looked at her .

"Why is it that you dont smile?" janelle asjed softly

Janelle feels a pant of guilt. "I'm so sorry Lilly." She said.

Alec's eyes darken."You dont live with do you?"

"Thats dusgusting." Alec looked at her closely." Why havent tou told anyone? They deserve to be punished."

Janelle nods in agreement.

"What is it Lilly?" asked still feeling guilty.

Alec watched both girls carefully.Placing his habd on Lilly's knee, he looked into her eyes."But what?"

Janelle gets worried when she says that. Janelle sits down.

Alec sees them and is mortified. He reaches over and lightly touches them."You have to get these checked. Those bruises dont look good."His firehead was wrinkled with concern.

He pulled his hand away."I'm sorry. I didnt realize.."He trailed off abd the concern was clear in his eyes.

Alec saw the tears and his heart broke."Lilly? I'm sorry. Really I am." He reached over and lightly wiped the tears away. Blushing after he had, wondering if it was alright. Thinking if he could make her feel better.

Janelle looks at them she feels her heart immeadiately break. "I'm so sorry Lilly." Janelle said

Janelle looks at all of them. "Lilly you should let a doctor look at those." Janelle said

"I agree with Janelle." He met Janelles eyes.

Janelle looks at him then at Lilly.

"Lilly?Will you go? We can come with you." Alec looked at her. Hoping she would agree.
