Rating I'd say somewere inbetween PG and PG-13 but its only for the stupid cops I had to put in.
Also ignore the time warp I dont always think about TV shows and the time periods... but Notice the irony.
~~
She had been having one of her bad weeks, which meant that she couldn’t leave her house. (Or so he thought) Too ill to leave her room or have fun just lots and lots of resting. Which was rather sad under the circumstances...
It was the last day of summer and the weather was saying ‘I do so agree’. A frost was most likely to come the next night whipping out the last of the flowers, including the forget-me-nots. She had a liking for the forget-me-nots and she didn’t get much of a chance to visit the park that had a field of them. Most of her good days were spent in her back yard on a swing or at a hospital. Anything but fun.
Johann was wanting so bad to get Eliza to that field. He had meet the girl a while ago and taken quite the liking to her and learned everything he could about her (A Faust will never leave a learning proposition left alone). His first friend and he really cared. To see her happy and he knew she was not happy in that room. So he started to make a master plan, one that is so masterful that no adult could stop him...
“Hello Ma’am may I see Eliza?”
Eliza’s mother had always let him visit her. Ok so he’s only tried to visit a grand slam total amount of 4 times but that’s beside the point, which was he knew he could always get in. Of course the first time he got the ‘she might be contagious’ speech but after assuring the women that it was a worth while risk, but a other wise un-founded fear, he was let in.
So as he went up the stairs, he reviewed his plan one more time and knew it was unavoidable, when he entered her room and saw her trying to bust out the window.
He cleared his throat and she lost her balance from the window sill and fell inward.
“Ouch...ground hurts...”
“Technically its hard wood floor...”
He walked over to her and helped her up then went and closed the door.
“If you get caught trying to sneak out your grounded...”
“...It’s just so BORING...”
She had walked over to her bed and fallen on it. Her face was in her pillow and she was kicking her feet for something to do.
“I feel fine but my mom’s being way too protective!” Of course he could tell what she said even though it was muffled.
“Mother’s tend to do that, her hearts in the right place...”
“I just want to leave is that too much to ask?”
“If you hand me your sheets it won’t be...”
“..Do I even want to know what’s going through that mind of yours?” In the short time they’ve known each other they realized and memorized each others child like habits. Eliza’s yearning to be free and Johan’s over analyzing tendencies were growing on each other.
By the time the sheet rope was done Eliza was poking her stuffed cat out of complete boredom...
“Theoretically we should be able to descend down this rope and to freedom before our parents find out and ground us until were old and gray.....”
“What does ‘descend’ and ‘theoretically’ mean?”
“Big words for ‘fall’ and ‘I hope to god this works’ in lemans terms”
Eliza sighed and thought to her self ‘why do I even bother....?’ she stopped poking her toy and walked over to the window were Johann was throwing the rope sheets out the window...only he forgot to tie one of the ends to something and the rope landed in the bush below.
“DOH!” >__< (one of the only faces you’ll see)
Eliza then proceeded to laugh.
~~
After Eliza stole the sheets out of the laundry room and Johann re-tied them into a rope and then remembered to tie it to the bed frame. The two of them looked at the rope as it touched the ground and the chilly wind blew for a moment.
“You first...”
“No you”
“Ladies first”
“....I am not a lady I am a girl...”
“Fine ‘girls’ first...”
“Smart boys first”
Johann sighed deeply and began the gradual decent down the rope.
“Hey it’s actually holding!”
“You were going to make me climb down a rope you didn’t think was going to hold?”
“Uhm....yes?”
Eliza jumped over the sill and began to climb down looking rather angry...
“When I get the hold of you Johann!”
Needless to say the boy climbed down faster and yet something was a little against him and the rope untied itself form the bed and both of them fell.
Johann landed on the rose bush and then Eliza landed on him. The two scrambled around to get out of the bush and out of sight of the houses windows. They ran down Katc Street. Faster than they have ever run before in there lives, once they thought they were in the clear, they slowed down and caught there breaths.
“...my face hurts....”
“Well you have this thorn right here-“ She plucks a thorn that had stuck itself in Johan’s face during the fall. The roses however we almost all dead and only having one stuck in your face was a stock of luck and nice twist to the actual falling incident. But Johann was a little too busy crying to notice.
“It HURTS!!...”
“Uhm....”
“Pain! Agony! Un measurable torture! I don’t think I can go-“
“JOHANN I TOOK IT OUT!!”
“Oh....never mind let’s go....”
They started on there way to the park they passed a local vender the man had ice cream for sale, saying he wanted to empty his inventory. Neither had money even at the lowered price.
“What does ice cream taste like Johann?’
“You’ve never had any?”
“No, I hear it’s mostly kelp and milk churned together with artificial chemicals added to make it taste good.”
Needless to say the vender yelled at them and they had to run from the flying waffle cones of doom™.
The park was actually farther away then Johann had thought. But hey kept walking and walking.....walking.....walking....
“I think my blisters hate you...”
“I hate them too”
“Now their crying...”
“Tell them suck it up”
“.... They aren’t listing and they think you’re a dummkopf”
“Well their Republicans!” (A/n-or Democrats depending on your hated party)
The next few blocks were spent in total silence.
~~
They had finally reached the park entrance when way back at Eliza’s house her mom entered her empty room...
“Eliza honey, are you hungry? I have soup...and candy...” When she finally did realize that no one was there and that there was an open window she set down the tray and looked outside.
“......this is new....”
Eliza’s mom slowly walked out the door then ran down the first two stairs and then fell the rest, then got up and called the police...
Anyway back with the kids...
The entrance was an iron rod fence and gate system commonly found in cemeteries. People were out and about even thought the air was a bit nippy and the wind was making it more so cold. Kids with their pets. Bird chirping. Laughter, joy, happiness.
“I think I want to throw up...”
“Why?”
“I might be allergic to something here...”
“Probably the dogs, filthy creatures really.”
“Yeppers I prefer cats.”
“Fish for me”
As they walked along the stone walk way hearing all this joy and such, Eliza was reminded of why she loved the flowers she was going to visit (and she didn’t even expect her new friend to know or rather remember she liked forget-me-nots)
The rather pretty bluish purple flower had been the only flower permitted in her house. Why well her mom and dad (together) we allergic to every other type of pollen. But she remembers that when ever she sees’s forget-me-nots it’s a good time. The family laughing together or what have you. It’s a positive association already.
There was a field in this park because the community voted and said “Let there be a field!” the two kids realized they had entered the field when they suddenly noticed flowers going up to there waists...
“We’re here......I said we’re here....Eliza?” Johann looked around and was amazed to see the usually sickly Eliza doing cartwheels.
“Since when could you do that?”
“Since I wanted to...lets go pick flowers!”
It was the best Johann could do to keep up with the suddenly hyper friend of his and hold all the flowers he gave him to hold.
“This is pretty, oh and this is pretty... OOOOOOO purple!” She continued to pick and prance around in circles for a few minutes she was having the time of her life and Johann had never been happier with anyone...
Mean while:
“Ok ma’am what are we dealing with here? Suicidal, Pedo, Homicide or what, give us a hint”
“I think my daughter just ran away...”
“No it’s never that easy there’s always a stalker involved”
“Seriously, I think she ran away...”
“Awww come on at least give me an insane ex-boyfriend of yours...”
“NO and go find my daughter who just ran away...”
“But”
“I said go” Eliza’s mom has to bat the police out the door with her broom.
~~
Eliza at this time had started to make flower crowns only she has so many flowers to use that she made a crown for Johann, the squirrel, a tree and a cloud (who promptly rejected it) so there she was making one for herself when a little puppy came up to her.
“A DOG”
“...a dog?” Johann who has smuggled a book in his coat and was now reading it looked up and noticed the creature.
Eliza promptly pokes the puppy.
“Looks young...”
“How can you tell?”
“I can tell because......I’m Magic” Johann raises his eye brows in hope to make her believe this.
“Pfft that would be the day...”
“It could happen....”
“Over my dead body no friend of mine is going to be magic”
“What ever...” Johann had already grown tired of the subject. The dog however wanted to play with him and jumped on him and licked his glasses.
“I just got these buffered!” He takes off his glasses and begins to clean them.
“Still an allergy creature...” (A/n-that was meant to sound weird)
“Annoying how he wants attention...”
The dog just backs away afraid of these two children who seemed so cynical of him. So he ran away. The two went back to what they were doing before.
“Hey Johann...”
“Yes?”
“Do you think we’ll be friend’s years from now?”
“I hope so. People are interesting especially girls.”
“Will you remember today?”
“You shoved a forget-me-not down my pants I’m sure I won’t forget for a while” -.-
“Good”
“I’ll never understand you”
“Good friends don’t need to understand, they just need to be”
“What?”
“..You wouldn’t get it; it’s a chick thing...”
“Oh my dad told me about those, I’m supposed to give you chocolate...”
“...You have any on you?”
“No”
“Then never mind”
Meanwhile:
“So sir have you seen a little sickly, maybe mentally stunted girl, walk by?”
“..Yes...and I must say this is strange you’re usually asking me if anyone’s ever robbed me and stuck an ice cream cone in my butt”
“Oh yah, so how’s that going for you?”
The ice cream vender sighed and wondered why all the policemen in this city watched CSI and other police shows....
The kids had tried to get back out of the field but because of their shortness there was a problem.
“Can you see over that big flower?”
“No I can’t see that much actually...tell me why we went to this side of the field when the other side has short flowers?”
“DOH” Twice in one day...this was slightly not Johann’s day...
Well eventually they got out and it was more time then Eliza had expected to spend out and she was a little exhausted but other wise fine. ‘Not a half bad day’ Johann thought.
They walked down the same streets towards Eliza’s house and passed some very disappointed Policemen muttering stuff about waffle cones. They continued walking until they saw Eliza’s mother with a lantern and was looking around. They were busted soon after.
It was the best day of their childhoods...
*years later*
“Yoh did you remember my plant?”
“No Anna....Why do you look like your going to kill me?”
“It’s a chick thing Yoh....” Anna is then pelted with German chocolate.
And it was a day they learned a lot about life.
THE ENDITH~~~
