Country Girl♥
Chapter 21
My legs gathered up strength to bounce off the ground, causing myself to seem like a rocket talking off into space.
Each time my foot left the ground, I felt like I was closer to being saved.
With the distant yelp of my name and Zach’s, each call made me desperately go faster.
Off in the distance I could see 2 tall and slender figures.
Tears were streaming down my face, could it really be?
There was an instant feeling of safety, when I saw those big brown eyes I had been passed on.
“Papa!” I screamed as I ran into his arms.
My dad, the man that I had been so mean to, was looking for me.
His grasp tightened as his tears came out too.
“Oh, my sweet little girl, it’s you. We found you.”
Once my vision un blurred my eyes met a familiar face, and green eyes.
He looked just look Zach, but more aged, with gray hair arousing from the brown dark color.
The lines next to his white teeth, made it obvious that he had shown those teeth to many people with his smile.
“Dad?”
I looked to see Zachary, in complete shock to the man in front of him.
“Well hey there son.”
“Why are you here?”
The man’s raspy voice seemed to change town from sadness to a plain one, “I heard you were missing, so I came looking for you.”
“Well you didn’t need to.”
“Yes I did son, everyone’s worried about you. Bella even came here with me; she got concerned when you didn’t call her these past nights.”
Zach’s face light up in excitement, “She’s here?! Well, then what are we waiting for, let’s go!”
---------------------------------------------------------------------
My eyes wandered around the room.
I sipped in the hot soothing liquid that was placed in my mug.
The coffee made me smile, but most of all it was watching Zach be so happy to see Bella.
When we had entered the house Bella’s immediate reaction was to leap into her big brothers arms.
Even after 15 minutes of being with him, her arms were still clasped around his neck.
“Bella, do you wanna meet Grace?” Zach’s firm voice signaled her that she should.
She walked up to me and smiled.
Without warning she hugged me too.
“Zachy, you were right, she is pretty. Like a princess.”
His face started to fluster red, mine did too after hearing that he thought I was pretty.
“Well, thank you Bella and Zach, now I bet if anyone wanted a princess, they would choice you.”
Her giggle filled the room as her rosey cheeks began to disappear from her smile.
She was adorable, missing her two front teeth.
“Grace, will you play a game with me and Zachy?”
“Of course, it would be my pleasure.”
“Yayyy! Ekkkk, let’s play Castle. You two can be the King and Queen, and I’ll be the Princess! First let’s do a Royal wedding. Between you two!”
Zach and my eyes locked together, as my face flushed red.
His voice cracked, “Um, so what first?”
Bella looked up with eyes lit, “You have to kiss the bride!”
