Rowan was able to vanish before she saw his face, but that dang animal had caught his scent. He veered off his previous path and into the deep woods, where he knew the trees grew close together and you could get lost easily. Unless of course you had been wandering through there since you were a child; like Rowan. He began to weave through the thickening undergrowth and tree trunks, trying to throw them off his course.
Heath sat down on the ground in a daze. He didn't know or understand what had just happened, his mind was working very slowly. Time seemed to slow to a stop, and he didn't even notice when El came back. "Heath? Heath, what are you doing?" She asked, a smile on her face because she thought he was messing around with her. However, Heath didn't register her words and remained silent. "Heath?" El asked again, smile fading. When he still didn't answer, she got down on her knees and shook his shoulders. "Heath?! Are you in there?" She practically yelled. Finally, Heath saw her, and all he did was lean forward into her shoulder. El was stunned for a moment, unsure of what to do, but then her motherly instinct kicked in and she wrapped her arms around him, pulling him into her lap. A few tears rolled down his cheeks and stained her shirt, but he made no sound. El rocked him back and forth like he was still a small child, singing a lullaby softly.
"Two roads diverged in a wood, and Iβ
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference." Robert FrostFACT: People with brown/hazel eyes are the most fun and happy. They kiss the best and love when not wanted: the always end up falling for people they haven't known long. They are the most hyper & crazy people, you can't do better then them. Put this in your signature if you have brown or hazel eyes.
