Monsters And Us

Chapter 15: childhood memories

Oliver got into the truck and so did I and he began driving further down the path. He stopped in front of a house and said "Well Anna here"s my house if you remember it." I smile as I see the wooden house and all the memories start coming back, I remember running through the forest with oliver behind me. He turns the car off and opens the door and we both hop out and he says "Anna, close your eyes I have a surprise for you" I close my eyes and oliver walks me down for a few minutes and he says "OK you ready?" I nod and he says "OK open your eyes"

I open my eyes and see a small tree house and gasp as I see the tree house me and him built together. He smiles and says "so you like it?" I hug him tightly and say "yes I love it oliver" he and I walk over the wooden bridge and into the small tree house. He sits down on the floor and he points to a cushioned chair and I sit down, i look at the hanging lights as the sky soon became darker and darker. Oliver checked his watch and jumped up shocked and said "s**t it"s almost 11 at night, I bet your dad is worried as hell about you"

"Oliver don"t worry, I"ll just call him" oliver smiled slightly and sat back down, I opened up my bag and began calling my dad.

"Hello Annabel?"

"Hi dad"

"Annabel where the hell are you? It"s almost 11"

"Dad, I"m fine I"m with Oliver actually"

"Well where are you and oliver?"

"We are at his house"

"Ok well I"ll be calling Josiah just in case"

"OK dad, I love you gotta go"

"Love ya peanut" I hung up and me and Oliver began laughing "well now my dad is gonna be here soon" oliver said and he looked at me.
