Under the Oak Tree

Instructions

My new story! I'll give yall the ending bcs I haven't written anything else lol BUT WITHOUT FURTH ADO, HERE YOU GO! --- “Reed! Wait!,” Perlie yelled, “I’m coming with you!”. “What? Why?” Reed asked, in shock. “Because…ITHINKYOURREALLYCUTEANDFUNNYANDNICEANDILOVEYOU!,” Perlie yelled, without taking a single breath. She blushed so hard that she felt her face turn tomato red. “Uh…,” Reed muttered, confused. “Ok never mind I’ll leave. This was stupid anyway…” she said, slinking away.- I…I love her too…She’s so beautiful and smart and lovely.- “Perlie! Wait! I…I,” Reed stuttered. Perlie put her finger over his mouth. “Shhh….I know,” she whispered. -UGH. I’ll NEVER get used to this being able to read mind thing.- I won’t either…but I kind of love it… -Perlie…. -Reed… -UGH! I love you so much. -“YOU SUCK!!!!!,” Reed laughed. “Noooooooo you wuv meeee,” Perlie giggled, wrapping her arm around his waist. They walked along the forest path, arms around each other, minds and mouths in complete quiet. The cool August air filled their lungs, and the leaves fell around them. As the night drew closer and closer, they found an old oak tree and sat underneath it. As they fell into a deep slumber, they smiled, not knowing that the heavy branch above them was hanging on by a piece of bark. A gentle wind blew, filling the air with the smell of spices and pumpkins, and snapping the bark, sending the branch plummeting down towards them. They were so deep into their dreams that they didn’t hear the branch fall, and crush them. 500 years later… “Max…” Sarah whispered. “Yes?” Max smiled. Sarah flung her arms around him and smiled. By now the mind-reading mutation had all but disappeared from the world, and Rory Quinton Northrop’s mark had disappeared from the history books because of his banning of writing and books. The only ones of Choperages that anyone still remembers are Perlie and Reed, but not by those names. Everyone in Great Easton knows them as the “Two Lovers” because of the position Nathan Dwain Carl found them in – curled up, arms around each other, under The Great Oak. The Great Oak still stands 500 years later, a reminder to all that though love is beautiful, it is still dangerous. At least that's what I think. I am just a ghost after all. The End
