Elizabeth pushed through a few leaves that opend up to the water fall she was at the day he first found him. She smiled and pulled him over to the edge of the small pool. "This is it."

Elizabeth dropped down next to him. "I really think we should have waited to come here now. How are you going to get back like this?" she was getting alittle worried, she wasn't going to leave him out here.

Elizabeth looked at the water for a few minutes before answering. "When I was nine, the year I wandered off a few weeks before, there was this boy that I would always hang out with. We had found something similar and we called it our own little place." Elizabeth went quiet as she started to see images of what happend. Her and the boy in the water, splashing at eachother and laughing. "This place just relaxed me and so I thought it would work for you too..." she didn't say anymore.

Rider sat up slowly seemingly no longer in pain. if he was he didnt notice it. "Pardon?" He looked alittle confused. "You and a boy nine years ago found a place like this?" Rider lay back down. the odds of that were very impossible that she was the same person. "Tell me about the boy."

Elizabeth nodded and looked out at the waterfall. "He..." she sighed lightly wondering how to start. "I first met him when I was sitting outside and I was by myself, I got up to go feed the chickens like I was supposed to everyday," Elizabeth started smiling to herself. "He had gotten behind a bush and when I walked by he jumped out and scared me, the bird seed was everywhere, all over me, in my hair, and he was laughing while I wasn't. I was glaring at him, but after he had his good laugh, he helped me up and helped me get the seeds out of my hair, and helped me get new seeds and he walked with me to feed the chickens. We talked, and started messing around. We started scaring people the way he had scared me, because just the reaction on their faces was fun to watch. Then we were just walking around, talking about whatever, and we heard a waterfall in the distance. We followed the sound and when we got there..." Elizabeth paused for a few minutes. "When we got there...the place was just so beautiful, and we instantly thought that nobody else knew about it because nobody else was there. So we called it ours and told nobody about it. We'd meet there everyday...but one day when I was getting ready to meet him...I thought I heard a noise coming from the forest, and I tried to follow it. I didn't know how far I was going but suddenly I couldn't hear it anymore, and...when I decided to turn back all I saw was trees." Elizabeth stopped abrubtly not wanting to talk about anymore.

"Do you know what happened to him afterwards?" Rider asked and gently held her hand seeing she as alittle upset.

Elizabeth didn't look at him, she kept looking straight ahead, her eyes filling up with tears. "I don't know...once I came into the forest I never found my way back." She started crying hard.

Rider stayed silent but sat up and pulled her gently into his arms letting her rest against him as he hugged her. He rocked gently not saying aword.

"No, i dont think he has." He said to her gently. Everything she said he remembered happening. it was coming back clearly. "I bet he waited for you for hours. and when finally he left he went home packed some things and went out looking for you, searching for the last nine years."

Elizabeth pulled away, shaking her head and rubbed her eyes, she took in a few sharp breathes and stood up. "Well he wasted his time looking for me, he hasn't found me yet, or he's probably dead." Elizabeth stood at the edge of the water, she pulled off her clothes until she was standing in her own bathing suit that she had made along time ago, and dove in.

"Or maybe hes right beside you." He muttered to himself sadly. He lay back down and closed his eyes suddenly not feeling as upbeat as he had been before.

Elizabeth stayed under the water, watching the bubbles float around her, and her hair drift all around her face. She didn't know how long she stayed under but her lungs were starting to strain so she came up and looked at Rider. "You gonna come in? Waters nice.."
