hehe thank you! *****************************************8**
Chapter 9
She laid there. Shot up on the bed and was sweating. “Whoa, what was that?” she whispered to herself. She uncovered herself from the blankets and quietly got out of bed. She found Orli sleeping on his couch. He looked so comfortable and was in a deep sleep. He was snoring loud and was wearing some blue checkered boxers. It was a cold night, so she grabbed a blanket and covered him. He moaned, smacked his lips, and continued with his snoring. Keira tiptoed to the bathroom, limping. She turned on the light and turned the faucet on. She let the water run in the sink. She stood in front it and looked in the mirror. She splashed her face with the only free hand she had. She looked in the mirror again. She was half covered with cuts and bruises she can’t remember getting. There was a huge one just below her lip that would hurt every time she even talked. She looked around the shelves and drawers to see if she can find some pain killers. She came across a photo. It was Orlando. He looked alot younger here and there was a woman with him also. She had the same features as Orli. Same eyes, hair color, and same kind of smile that was so contagious. It must be his mother.
She heard someone’s footsteps coming to where she was at. She quickly placed the photo back where she found it and closed the drawers. She hid behind the door. The figure came in, not noticing her. It was Orlando. His hair all messed up in a cowlick and half asleep. He didn’t see her, but she kept quiet. Orlando picked up the toilet seat to sit it up. He pulled down his boxers and Keira quickly closed her eyes. She felt hot in the cheeks. Keira tried so hard not to make a sound so she covered her mouth. His bum was so fit and…STOP! She thought. Bad Keira, Bad Bad. She thought to herself. Orlando was done. He pulled up his boxers and washed his hands. He went back to sleep. Keira sighed with relief. She should do the same. She slowly got out and went to bed. She covered herself. The pillows had a wonderful scent. It must be Orlando’s shampoo. She couldn’t sleep. She began to think. Who’s hands was it who saved me? Why do I keep having these weird dreams? She turned to her back because it hurt her to sleep on her side. She can see Orli on the corner of her eye. There was something about him. Something about him made her feel safe and secure. He was also so beautiful. How can a guy beautiful as him be such a gentlemen? Her eyes finally closed. That night she slept like a baby. Nothing could disturb her.
It was morning. Orlando woke up with the sun ray on his face. He flickered his eyes, trying to open them. He saw a blurry thing looking at him and it was panting. He felt a slobbery thing come against his whole face. “ Geuro! You mangy mutt. Come here you!” he said quietly so he won’t wake Keira up. “Hello sleepyhead.” A familiar voice said. It was John. Orlando sat up. “Hey.” Orlando said yawning. John handed him a cold beer. “Beer for breakfast?” Orli asked. “ What is better that this?” John said and took a big gulp from his own. “ So how is she?” he continued. Orlando looked at Keira and sighed. She slept so peacefully and didn’t want to wake her.” Aw man, she’s something. She has a mind hard as rock, but she’s something. “ Orli whispered. “ Come, lets leave her sleep and have some real breakfast downstairs.” He said handing back the beer to John. They went for the door . John was behind Orlando and took a quick glimpse at Keira. He laid his eyes on her perfect body and to her face. He took a drink. He has been lonely for months. He was extremely jealous of Orli. She is gorgeous he thought. “I’m going to get you. Somehow.” He whispered and closed the door behind him.

WOAH I JUST NOTICED THAT I TOTALLY MESS UP! I skipped chapter 10!aughh...here ill repost from ten to 12!!
Chapter 10
Orlando made some eggs and bacon. He got a plate for Keira and some coffee too. He put it all on a tray and gripped the handles. He was on his way upstairs until John asked him a question he didn’t know how to answer. “ Are you falling for her?” he asked Orli without hesitation. Orlando placed the tray back on the kitchen counter. He sat down. Geuro came to his feet and he petted him in silence. “ So?” John asked “ do you have feelings for her?” Orlando looked up at him. He couldn’t get one word out. He opened his mouth, but nothing came out. Only the very same breath that lived in him. John just looked at him . “So I guess you don’t.” he said to him after clearing his throat. “ I never said I didn’t “ Orlando replied slyly. “ And you never said you did. John stated with a smirk. “It’s just that, well maybe, well you know.” Orli said confused, not knowing what was coming out of his mouth. “ Man , I do..have..feelings..for her.” Orli finally said. John looked at him blankly. “ Dude, you just met her. You just found out her name yesterday.” He reminded him. “ Ya I know. I know. It’s just every time I look her in the eyes I cower down. As if I was scared to hurt her. Scared to make her upset. When I was at hospital and saw her laying there in pain, I wished so hard to change places with her. She has this innocence in her face that would make you do anything for her . Just so she can be okay. When she hugged me in the car and called me her friend. I have never felt like I felt that moment for such a long time. “ Orlando stopped. “It’s all confusing. Something tells me that she needs someone and I hope I don’t disappoint her.” Orlando finally stopped.” Can you warn me next time?” John said rolling his eyes. “ For what?” orli asked. “ When you going to go all romantic crappy on me?” Orlando laughed. John patted his back. “ Here, I’ll go take this to her. I’ll leave you here with your thoughts.” John told him. “ Don’t tell her.” Orli asked hopelessly. John just nodded and headed up the stairs. Orlando sat there. Motionless and hard as a rock.
Keira woke up. She felt something heavy and warm that laid on her feet. It was Orlando’s dog sleeping. She found it funny how he even snored much alike the owner.Keira stood up and appreciated the company. She patted the dog softly on the head. He woke up and yawned. John came in the room with the tray. “ Hey you!” he said. “sorry it’s a little cold. It’s Orlando specialty.” He said. Geuro smelt the scent of the bacon and got excited. He rashly got up and rolled over Keira. He carelessly scratched her arm, fortunately not her broken one. Keira let out a wimpy yelp.” Damn dog!” John yell and rushed to her side. Her arm was bleeding. He got a napkin and covered it to stop the bleeding. He held her hand and looked at her. He was amazed how she didn’t seem like the other girls. Usually they would complain and make a big deal about it. Keira just stared at him. She found something she liked about him, but also found something she feared. They heard a little sigh and turned to the door. They saw a figure resting his body in the frame of the entrance, He had his hands in his pocket. It was Orlando. Orlando felt something sharp in his heart. Was it jealously?
Chapter 11
Orlando stood there, not knowing really what to think. Was it what I think they were doing? Or was it not? “ Good morning Keira..” he finally said. “ Is everything alright?” he asked.“ Good morning Orlando, Thank you so much for the breakfast. My arm has a cut and it started bleeding. So John was just helping out.” Keira said. Her voice was totally normal. As if nothing was happening between them. That made John furious. He tighten his grip on Keira’s arm. She did not squeal , but was surprised and looked at him. She thrusted her arm away from his grasp . “ Thank you , John. I think that will do.” She told him. Orlando entered the room and sat on the bed. John just stood there squatting down just looking at Keira. HE immediately got up and said. “ Well, looks like everything is going under control. I need to go now. I got work. I’ll see you guys later. See you later sweetcheeks.” Never looking away from Keira. He walked away and out the door. Keira sat there motionless. Sweetcheeks? That name made her stop and feel unsecured immediately. Something about that name made her heart drop and made her cower. She didn’t know why she disliked that name soo much. She couldn’t remember.
“ Hey, you alright?” Orli asked taking Keira away from her trance. “ Ya , everything is fine. Thank you so much again.” She said looking at him. They stared at each other. Orlando got a chill down the spine that caused him to look away. He got up and sighed. “ Well, it’s a brill day. How about we go out?” he said stretching his arms. He looked out the window. “ Oh dam. I guess I jinxed the day.” Orli said. “ What? Why?” she asked him. “ The clouds look nasty, It looks like its about to rain cats and dogs.” Orli said . Keira chuckled lightly so she wouldn’t hurt her weak ribs. Orlando looked at her with a smile. “ What’s so funny?” he asked. “ Oh its just that, I never heard of the phrase before. The whole Cat and Dogs. But it sounds hilarious when you say it with that accent of yours. Are you Britain?” she asked. Orlando laughed. “ Yes, yes I am. And your Britain as well. You got a accent there also.” He told her. Keira made a funny face. “ I do not have an accent. Oh I suppose your right. “ she said with a sigh. Orlando just shook his head. “ SO what are we going to do today?” he asked her. Keria suddenly got an Urge to watch a good movie. “ How about a movie? Right here. With hot chocolate and bon bons!” She was so excited. Orlando agreed. He felt like a movie too. They slowly went downstairs. Orlando went to his cupboard that was used for storage. It was filled with all types of movies. Keira came with him and scanned through all the titles. “ Moulin Rouge?” she said. “ That movie sounds so familiar, but I don’t think I have seen it.” “ Oh it’s my older sister’s, Sam. She loves that movie. She one time came over because she wanted me to watch it with her. We never got the chance to, I guess she forgot it here.” He told her. He also scanned through the titles. “Captain Blood.” He said while pulling it out. He showed it to Keira. Keira just pulled a funny face. “Captain…Blood?” she said slowly. Orlando laughed. “Guessing that’s not your spot of tea?” he said putting back the DVD. “ Well, Moulin Rouge it is then.” Keira got excited and popped it into the DVD player. Orlando went to the kitchen to get some hot chocolate and bon bons. Just like Keira wished. “ Hurry ‘ Lando. It’s about to start.” He came in with a tray and a blanket. He covered Keira and handed her the cup and a little bag filled with the sweets. “ Thank you. Come here and sit next to me.” She said looking up at him. The movie started. Orlando could tell that Keira loved every part of it. He loved seeing her happy. It made his heart feel lightless and put a smile on his face. Orlando was staring at her until he heard a saying in the movie that caught his whole attention. “ The greatest thing you’ll ever learn, is just to love, and be loved in return.” Orlando stopped and stared at the screen. He loved that phrase somehow. It brought hope to him. He turned to Keira and caught her sleeping. She looked weak in the morning. She laid her head on his shoulder. He sighed. She looked so cute. He thought. He thought she was uncomfortable so he grabbed a pillow and put it on his lap. He gently got keira and put her on top of the pillow. He stayed there taking his arm to Keira’s hair and brushing it with his fingertips.
Keira was in a deep sleep. She began to dream again. This time she saw A little girl crying . She was holding a teddy bear. The there was a woman holding the little girl’s hand. She handed her something. It looked like a brass bracelet. The scene flashed again and she saw a man. He was yelling at her but didn’t know what he was saying. His armed raised as if he was about to slap her. The scene flashed again. Now she was in someone’s arms . Sitting in the field again admiring the scenery. She woke up scared. Orlando jumped. “Keira, is everything alright.” He asked her holding her. She just looked at him with ears filled with fear and confusion. “ I keep having these weird dreams. I don’t understand them.” She said weeping . Orlando hugged her closely to him. The phone rang. “ let me get that and then we can talk about this okay?” he said and kissed her on the forehead. He picked the receiver “ Hello?” he said. He heard a voice respond back.. He sounded as if he just found a ghost. “ Okay, Ill be right over.” Orli hanged up and turned to Keira.” Ill go get you a coat. It was the doctor. He wants us over. “<br>

Chapter 12
“For what?” she asked still trying to wake up. “ I wished I knew. “ Orlando told her while grabbing a coat. Keira grabbed the remote and rewinded the movie. “What are you doing?” Orli asked her. “ I didn’t get to see half the movie ‘Lando. “ she replied taking a bite of the bon bon. Orlando didn’t want to interrupt her. She needed all the rest she can get. He looked out the window. Drops of heavy water pounded on the glass and roof. “Well, are you sure you don’t want to go?” he asked. Keira looked at him after taking a sip of her hot cocoa. “ If you want me to come?” she said struggling to get up/ “ Oh no, I mean ya I would like you to go, but you don’t have to. No it’s better that you don’t go. I don’t want you getting sick.I should be back less then an hour.” He said. Keira appreciated it. “ Thank you, be careful.” She told him . Orlando just smiled at her and went out the door. He found geuro sleeping on the mat before the door . He woke him up. “ Hey boy, go take care of Keira for me? Will you do that for me?” he said rubbing the dog on the back. Geuro wagged his tail excitedly. He licked Orlando on the face and ran to Keira’s side on the couch. He curled up into a ball and fell fast asleep. Keira laid her hand on his head and started playing with his tears. She never left her eyes from the TV. Orlando stood there looking at her. She was so different from the other girls. She was so brave and sweet at the same time. He then remembered the doctor wanted to see him. So he put a hat on his head and headed for the car. He tried hard not to get wet, but didn’t seem to work. His whole left side was soaking wet. His curly hair was dripping water over his face. He wiped his eyes and started the ignition. He turned the wipers on and went to reverse. He was on the road again. He didn’t know what to expect to hear from the doctor.
He arrived at the hospital. It wasn’t as busy as last time. He walked up to the front desk. “The Doctor wished to see me. “He said. “It’s alright Darla, I got it. “ the doctor said surprising Orlando. “Hey doc, what’s up?” Orli said with a heavy accent.” Please, call me Jack.” The doctor insisted . “ Alright . Well Jack, what did you need to speak to me about?” he asked . “ Is Keira here?” he said looking around. “ No, she’s not . She is back at my house. How come?” Orlando asked anxious. “ Is she alright?” Jack asked. “ Can you just tell me what going?” Orlando asked impatiently. Jack sighed. “Follow me to my office. I’m afraid we found info about Keira and her parents.” Orlando didn’t like the sound of the way he said it. They entered to the same office and sat down. Jack sighed and started to explain how Keira’s last visit wasn’t her only one. “ All the bruises she had in the past and injuries weren’t exactly normal. They weren’t caused by accidents she said they were caused from. We are thinking her dad is abusive. She denies. And when they deny it, we can’t do anything about it. “Orlando sat there. “ Where is her mother in all this?” he asked toneless. “ We couldn’t find any records about her. You know, she is also a new star in the movie business. We reached their agents. Because of the condition she is they gave her 5 months to recover and just until she is alright.” Orlando finally recognized her. She was Keira Knightly. She was that actress she never got to meet at an after party one night. “ Looks you guys share the same passion for movie making?” Jack asked. Orlando just smiled but never looked at him in the eye. “ How come she can do every day things still?” Orlando asked. “ It looks to me she just can’t remember things she has done on the last few months, days, or years. It should come to her soon. When that does, don’t be surprised if she doesn’t take it well or break down. It’s hard for her. “ he continued. Orlando sighed and slouched on his chair. He put his hands in his pockets. He felt something cold and hard. It was the bracelet. “ What do I do about this?” he asked showing Jack. Jack examined it. “To Keira , love mommy.” It had engraved. “ It’s better that she doesn’t see this. It will confuse her. “ he said to Orlando. Orlando understood and put it back to his pocket. Orlando check his watch . “Well, Jack, I should be going back to Keira. “ Jack agreed and they left the room. “ Now, you can’t mention anything to her, you understand?” he said to Orli. “ yes, I know. Thanks . Bye.” Orli screamed while leaving the building. He got in the car and was thinking. Can her father really be abusive? Poor Keira. He pressed the brake at a red light. He caught a site of a woman’s clothing store. He then remembered what last time she was wearing. Some of his boxers and a stretched out shirt that rested on her perfect body. He made a U-turn and parked. He entered the store . He never came inside these type of stores before. He was just lingering not knowing were to even start. Fortunately, a worker was lingering by. “ Looks like you need some help?” she asked him with a smile. “ Um ya, I want to get clothes for a friend of mine. “ he said. “ Oh how nice, Just tell me her size then we can start.” She asked. Orlando just stood there. “ I don’t know her size.” He said shyly. She laughed. “ Well describe her to me. Physically. “ Orlando then started. “ Oh she’s Beautiful. “ she interrupted and laughed. “ Sweet, but like ..” “OOOOhh, I know sorry. “He blushed. “She has long legs, long arms. Pretty skinny.” He demonstrated how skinny she was with his hands. “ She laughed. “ I think I got it. Lets start.” She said pushing Orlando. Orlando Came out with bags on both hands.” THANK YOU!” he yelled and got into the car. He arrived to his house. “ Ohh Keira!” he said excitedly. He went to the living room . He didn’t find her there. He checked in the kitchen not there. Room, not there. “ KEIRA?!” no answer.

Chapter 13
Orlando was getting worried. He dropped the bags and started looking all over for her. The TV was still on. Her mug had some cocoa left and next to it laid a half bitten bon bon. “ Keira Where are you?!” He yelled cupping his mouth in order to make it louder. He heard a distant bark coming from the back yard. He ran to the backyard screen and slammed it open. It was Geuro. “Where’s Keira boy?” talking to him while holding his head between his mighty hands. He felt a tap on the shoulder. He turned violently. It was Keira. “‘Lando what’s wrong? Why were you screaming? I was in the basement. I wanted to see if you had any toys so I could play with Geuro.” She said normally. She didn’t know Orlando was about to have a hear attack. “Orlando shot up and hugged her. Don’t ever do that again ok? You got me worried.” He said while rubbing her back. “I don’t know what I would do if I lost …a friend like you. “ He felt relieved and was glad that she was in his arms safely. “Why do you always lose your friends in the basement?” she said sarcastically. He laughed. “But thanks Lando. Sweet of you.” She said looking at him. She let go of him and hugged the dog. She made funny voices making Geuro wag his tail and lay on his back. He lifted his legs to the air and was rolling with his tongue hanging out. Orlando just looked at them both. “How was the movie?” he asked her. “ Oh, Lando’ it was sooo beautiful. I have never cried at a movie before. But I’m not going to tell you until you see it. Don’t want me to spoil it for you now do we?” she said looking at him. “What did the doctor want?” she continued. “Oh umm... he just wanted to see how you were doing. Oh, by the way, I have something for you. “He said smiling. He helped her up and covered her eyes with his soft hands. “Tell me what it is.” “I can’t tell you.” He said teasingly. He uncovered her eyes and she saw the bags lying on the floor. She quickly grabbed them and checks what was in it. She squealed with joy. “ ‘Lando you didn’t have to. Why ? How?” She said looking at him amazed. “ Well, you’re running around with my underwear. Also, what if I want to go out. You didn’t have anything to wear so I just thought I should get you something. “ He said putting his hands into his back pockets. She got up and held his hands. He felt nervous. He didn’t know how to react so he just smiled. Keira also felt that spark in her. Why is he so nice to me? How can he be so kind? He actually cares about? She thought while looking at him. Wow , he is soo beautiful. Is there anything he can’t do? She continued. “ Thank you” she said slowly. They just looked at each other amazed. He wanted to kiss her. He wanted to have his body close to his. He wanted to touch her lips and never let her go. “ Your welcome. Well, go try them on. “ She grabbed the bags. “ Ill be right back. “ She said walking away. “ Do you need any help? With your arm and everything. “ He asked loudly. “ No . Ill be fine!” she yelled and closed the door. Orlando let his body drop on the couch . He laid there. He began to think about what the doctor has told him . “ We think her dad abuses her.” He remembers. He hoped that wasn’t the case. No one deserves to have a father like that. He let his mind gone. He sat there heavy with random thoughts. He took of his shoes throwing them , not caring where they landed. He took his shirt off and closed his eyes. He drifted off.
Keira came out. HE didn’t hear her. She stood there in front of him not making a sound. She gazed her eyes on his perfect body, He hade arms that were made of steal. His tummy was flat. His skin gave a tan glow on him. He looked so heavenly. The texture of his hair laid perfect over his eyes. She snapped out of it and cleared her throat. Orlando opened his eyes and stayed in awe of Keira.” What do you think?” she said twirling. The white lacy skirt she wore swerved with her. Her legs were long and beautiful. She had a light yellow plain shirt on. Her hair flowed with all her actions. He gazed at her and her body, she was so perfect. The outfit she wore was meant to be on her. “You...look...Beautiful.” he said smiling. She blushed. “ NAW. How did you mange to get the right size It fits perfectly. “Orlando just chuckled. “ Hey, you have a tattoo?” she said. She sat and touched it. Orlando’s skin shivered to her sensitive touch of her fingers. “Oh that’s right, I got it when I was 15. “He said looking at the sun tattoo that was printed right below his torso. “Do you have any tattoos?” He said playfully. Keira just laughed. He loved the way she laughed. “Nope, don’t think so. “She said while lifting her shirt only a little to see if she had one. Orlando felt his blood flow up to his head. He saw something on Keira’s torso that frighten him. “Keira, what is that?!” he said while touching a bruise. It looked like it was painful. It was as big as his arm.Keira just looked at him. “I don’t know.” She said looking down.

^ LOl thank you!
************************************** chapter 14
Orlando felt as if a knife just cut his throat. “ Keira, how did you get that?” he asked stuttering. His heart was filled with hurt . Keira didn’t know why Orlando was making a big deal about it. “ No, I don’t know. Is everything alright?” She asked him. Orlando couldn’t respond. “ We think her dad was abusive. Her bruises aren’t normal.We couldn't do anything because she only denied it” Kept ringing in his ears. “ Orlando , what’s wrong?” she asked again looking at him. “It wasn’t your fault. I know you didn’t do this.” She said putting her hand on his. Orlando just looked at him. His eyes were swollen. He was about to burst. He began to plot that her father did this to her. The doctor was probably right. Maybe her dad really did abuse her. He wanted to know, but he knew she couldn’t ask her. She can’t remember. He reminded himself. Orlando looked at her. “ Keira , lets go to the doctor tomorrow right in the morning , please?” he begged her. She looked at him. He cared so much about her. She hated to see him like this. “ Okay . But can we not talk about it again till’ tomorrow?” she asked. He agreed. “ I’m sorry.” he smiled at her. “ Oh , look at the sun is about to set. You want to go check it out?” he said holding Keira’s hand. Keira nodded and got up. They went out to the backyard. It was green of vegetation and flowers everywhere. She looked around and to her amazement there was an apple tree as big as the house. It was big and tall. It looked exactly like the one in her dream. The same apple tree that was planted on the flowered field. She was in shock . “ ‘Lando, why you got a apple tree in the backyard?” she said not looking at him. Her eyes were glued the green leaves it gave birth too. The apples redder then blood. It looked beautiful with the soft light the low sun gave it. Orlando looked at her. “ Oh , Me and my mum planted that about 3 years ago. It’s brilliant isn’t it. I can never get enough apples. “ he said laughing. “ Hey look, the sun is setting .” he told her. She finally looked away from the tree and into the sky. The sun looked like a sliced orange cut in half. The rays looked soft and light. The sky swirled with different colors and a shade of a dark blue was appearing. She was in awe. “ It’s so beautiful” she said slowly. He turned to stare at her and replied. “ Yes, Very beautiful. “ he said gazing at her. Keira turned to look at him. She smiled. Her smile filled Orlando’s heart. “ I love it when you smile, you should do it more often. “ he told her. Keira was about to say something when she felt a wet drop on her forehead. “ Oh oh, was that a drop of rain?” she said looking up the sky. Orlando looked up. They saw more and more drops falling from the heavens. The rain was light but dropped like lightning. It wasn’t cold nor hot. It was perfect. The sun was halfway gone but still left some orange rays behind. Their clothes were soaking. Their bodies wet from water of the earth. Keira looked at Orlando. The rain rolled down his structured cheekbones. His blouse stuck to his body like paste showing the color of his tan body. Her hair covered her face. Her soft curls disappeared. Little drops of water dripped from her long black eyelashes. The water cooled her bruises and cuts on her face. It also was damaging her cast on her left arm. She unwrapped the cloth and felt free. She didn’t mind the pain. Nothing could take this moment from her.
Orlando swooped her up in his strong arms not harming her. He ran in circles not caring where he was going. They slipped and Keira landed On him. They laughed an appreciative laugh full of joy and desire. Keira threw her arms around him and kissed him on the forehead. “ Your are by far the bestest friend I will ever have. Thank you so much for everything. “ She hid her face in his shoulders and sighed. Orlando hugged her back. He loved the way she respected him and loved him. But that love was no greater. It was an innocent love she gave him. A love of friendship. He wanted more . He wanted her. He wanted her to love him like he was falling in love with her.
Keira felt so happy. She loved Orlando with all her heart , but only as friends. Something stopped her from loving him. It wasn’t him at all. He was perfect. More perfect the perfect. It was her that stopped her. Her gut feeling told her he can’t love him. It hurted her, but she didn’t know what it was. Her mind told her he can’t love him but wouldn’t say why.

CHapter 15
Keira woke up from the greatest night of her life. She had so much fun dancing in the rain with Orlando. Letting all her pain out in loud chuckles and smiles. She had never felt so alive. Orlando was still asleep. His leg up on the couch and the other falling off the edge. Keira smiled in the inside and slowly put his leg back on the couch. Orlando woke up and opened his eyes. “ Oh my gosh, I’m so sorry.” Keira apologized. Orlando didn’t mind. He loved the way he woke up that morning. Yesterday was good enough, but waking up to the presence of a brown hair angel was something else. He took his hand and pinched her cheek . He gave out a great yawn and sat next to her. “ Aw, no worries love.” He said to her and grabbed her in a headlock playfully. Her head was pressed against his chest and he took a knuckle and gave her a noogie and a quick kiss on the forehead. She laughed. She shoved him and stood up. “ So what do you want for breakfast? “ she asked him giving him a hand. They raced downstairs.” Keira , where’s your cast?” he asked him examing her arm. “ Oh, I don’t need that . I feel better already. And look my bruises are almost gone.” She said pointing at her face like a child of five. Orlando just laughed and picked her up and carried her to the kitchen. “ ‘Lando, no bad “Lando.” She said laughing. “ What I’m a mut now?” he said sarcastically. He pouted and made this puppy face no one can ignore. Keira felt as if she could of melted. She felt light and if she wanted to , walk on thin air. She grabbed Orlando’s cheek and said. “ A very cute puppy!” she said pouting her lips. They laughed and sat. The doorbell rang. Keira went up to get it. She opened the white door with golden frame. And there stood John. “ Keira sweet!” he said in a very untruthful voice. He held her not giving her time to react. “ I got you something.” He said bobbing his eyebrow and held out some daises to her. She accepted them with great appreciation . “ awww, thanks John. That’s just so sweet. Me and “Lando are about to have breakfast. Want to join us?” she asked him clearing his way into the hall. “ Why sure.” He replied grabbing hold of her arm. He grabbed the arm that was barely healing. She squealed quietly. “ Oh , I’m so sorry” he said looking at her with his steamy eyes. She looked at him confused. He had the look in his eyes. The look she did not like. It sent mixed messages to her. “ Oh, it’s fine. Not your fault.” They walked into the kitchen. They caught Orlando dancing to some England music. John cleared his throat and Keira tried hard not to laugh. Orlando was surprised and his face grew red. He laughed it off and we joined too. “ Hey man, What’s up?” Orli walked up to john patting him on the back. “ I’m doing pretty good . So what’s for breakfast?” he asked while rubbing his hands together. “ Well, I was thinking pancakes would be lovely. What do you think Keira?” Orli asked. “ I think so too. Ill make them.” She said already heading for the fridge gathering all the ingredients she would need. The phone rang . Orlando went up to pick it. “ allo? Oh hi mum. Just one minute.Hey guys im going to talk to me mum for a bit . Keira do you got everything under control?” he asked her. She smiled and nodded. “Nothing to worry hun. Tell your mum I said hi. “ she told him. “ I sure will ,thanks love.” With that Orlando went to the other room. It was just John and Keira in the kitchen.
John went up to Keira and sat on the counter to be next to her. She kept batting the mix and some splatted on her nose. John quickly grabbed a napkin and gently wiped it off. “ oh thanks.” She said . Never looking at him. He sat there and looked at her. She saw him at the corner of her eye. “ What? What seems to be the problem.” She said pointing the spoon at him . She made it a threat to splatter him with the gunk if he won’t stop. “ No nothing. I didn’t say a word.” He said with a grin and took and apple. “ Well, can you not say a word somewhere else?” she continued. He laughed after swallowing his bite of the apple. He sighed and asked. “ Are you and Orlando , well, together?” he asked. “ Keira looked at him. “ We’re good friends. He has been there for me the whole time since the day at the hospital.” She said annoyed. “ oh I see. Well, do you have something for him. Like are you falling for Orlando?” he asked again after taking another bite of the green apple. She looked at him. He was chewing loudly and was very disturbing. He had a bit of f the natural juice from the fruit hanging from his lower lip. He brushed it off and gave her a wink. She looked at him. “ Why do you ask?” she said. “ Well, I just get the vibe that you do. The way you always look at him when he’s not. The way you play around and smile .I haven’t seen you smile since the moment I met you. Until now. “ he said with a tone in his voice. He thought he knew it all. He knew he was good. He knew he was wise and can get whatever he wanted. Keira didn’t respond. “ We’re just friends ok?” she said sternly. “ Oh that’s good.” He said jumping off the counter. She looked at him with disgust. “ Good? Whatever do you mean?” she said. “ Well, first of all, he is still with Kate. His girlfriend for months now. You should see them, they are always all over each other. I never have seen Orlando so happy. You don’t want to take him away from her now do you?” he said helping himself with some water. Keira’s heart raised. “ what?” she whispered. “ oh no, you do have feelings for him don’t you ?” He said while creeping up behind her. He took a breath of her hair. She gave a scent that was so heavenly . He rubbed her arms as if he wanted to comfort her. He felt her arms shiver as he touched her soft skin under his fingertips. “ You need to forget about him. You should only give you’re your friendship. That’s all he needs. You can’t give him signals like you are doing now. That will only confuse him and put him in depression. You don’t want that? Maybe you need to be with some one who really does need you. Some one who has been lonely just like you. Some one like me.” He whispered into her ear that caused her to shiver. Keira stood there. She blinked hard. No, no she thought. How can this be? He is in love with someone else. Orlando stepped into the kitchen not sensing any difference in the air.

lol ok! ******************************************** Chapter 16
Keira stood there looking at him frowning. She left Keira and John and went running upstairs. Orlando yelled. “ Keira where are you going?” Keira responded. “ Oh I just needed to go the bathroom and I forgot something. No worries. Ill be right down.” She said trying to disguise her voice. She was confused. She didn’t know how to react to all the stuff John has just told her. She Couldn’t let Orlando know about it either. Should she act like she didn’t know anything? Should she let him know that she knows something? She didn’t know what was wrong with her. Did I have feelings or didn’t I? Am I just a friend like I told John? A part of her was madly falling for him. The other was telling her that she can’t. Why is this so hard! She took a pillow and put it on top of her face. She let out a scream. She stopped then she smelt the scent of the pillow. Again it smelt like him. She closed her eyes and laid there on his bed.
Orlando believed her and turned back to John. “Why do you look so happy?” he asked him teasingly. John just breathed out. “ Nothing at all. Nothing. So are we going to have those pancakes?” he asked sitting down. “ Oh ya, Here ill make them.” He said taking a spatula in his hands and poured some of the mix into a hot pan. He made a perfect circle. It started to bubble and he flipped it. John just sat there staring at the pan. “ She’ s something eh?” John asked. “ Ya, this pancake is going to be a good one.” Orli responded. “NO you dufus! I meant Keira.” He whispered to him. “ Oh oh right. Ya she is.Why man?” he asked him. “ oh nothing at all.” Orli told him. He knew what he meant with that. “ Hey man, stay away from her.” WOah man, I didn’t say a word but just asked a simple question. By the way, Kate would sure have more then a word to say to you if she found out about Keira.” Orlando’ s blood boiled. He didn’t blink for a long time. He shut his eyes hard and opened them again. “ I don’t know about Kate. I’m going to have to end it .” he said. “ Besides, I’m helping out Keira. Kate will only be in the way if she found out.” John slapped his hand on the counter hard. Orlando was confused. Why is he acting so weird? “ I would think twice about that Bloom. Kate is in love with you. Remember you were too.” John said slyly and left the room. Orlando was dumbstruck. He sat down and looked out the window. He heard the slam of the door. He looked beyond the window frame out to the backyard. He saw Geuro chasing a squirrel. His floppy ears few behind. His tongue hanging out. He rolled on the floor . The tree looked healthy and bigger then yesterday, Maybe the rain from last night was a good shower for it. He noticed the leaves limping because of the heavy little puddles of water remained on it. There was not a cloud in sight. You couldn’t see the sun either. It was a light shade of blue. The air smelt damped and refreshing. He then smelt the smell of something burning. It was the pancakes. He quickly removed the pan and put it under running water in the sink. The steam flowed quickly and fogged the window’s glass. He then heard music playing from upstairs. It was every unclear. He was curious she he went up trying not to be noticed.
Keira took off the pillow from her face. She looked at his furniture. His many photographs . She got up to see one of them. This was with him and his sister, she assumed. She took her thumb and brushed it surface. It was really dusty. She coughed waving her hand in front of her as trying to keep the dust away from her. She went to the bathroom to get something to wipe off the dust. She caught a small towel and damped it with some water.She came out and found the boombox. She scanned through the station. I familiar tune was playing. It was the theme of the Pink Panther. She smiled and tuned the volume louder. She began to clean to the slow rhythm of the song. Orlando was looking for her. He walked past his room . He saw a glimpse of her. He stepped backwards and came in quietly. He saw her there dancing. She was moving her body with such poise. She moved her body slowly. He recognized the song fast. He stood there looking at her. She moved her waist into circles lgoing lower and lower. She then came up slowly. She flipped her hair. It slapped her back . He stood there amazed. She was gorgeous. She looked so alive. She knew how to have fun with the simplest thing . He felt something tingling inside of him. He bagan to creep up behind her and held her waist. Keira gasped. She loved the feel of his hands laying softly on her waist. She seem to forget everything about what Johh has told her. They danced there letting the music move them.

Chapter 17
Orlando spinned her and the music stopped. They gazed at each other with eyes filled with pure love. Keira giggled and laid her hand against his mighty chest. He took his hand up to her face, brushing it softly. He took her chin and was taking her closer to his lips. Keira turned around causing Orlando to kiss her check instead. Keira got nervous and pushed him playfully. Orlando stood there. He failed. “ I promised you to go to the Doctor so he can check me up.” She said “I’m ready. She said seriously and turned and left Orlando there. He let his arms fall beside him. He was alone there in complete thought. Maybe, she doesn’t feel the same like I feel for her. He straightened up and began to walk. He could feel trembling and head for the hall.
Keira came downstairs and laid against the wall. She put her head against it and her hand on her mouth. The sun was shining hard through the window. Something was shining on her face that made her squint. It was the reflection of something silver that hanged out of Orlando’s coat. She was curious what it was and went to go see what it was. She grabbed it and examined it. It was a silver bracelet.” Why do I feel like I’ve seen this before?” she asked herself. She turned it over. “ To Keira, Love Mommy” “What? Why does this have my name on it? Mommy?” Her heart stopped. The world stopped spinning. Her body stopped moving. She felt like jelly. Memories flashed in her mind. The little girl she would dream of was her. “"I've had enough Ron!" her mother would yell at her husband, " Im leaving, for good!" she continued. Keira's heart had stopped. "Mommy , don't go!" Keira had yelled. "I'll be back for you sweety, I promise." her mother had said while brushing the little cheeks of her daughter with her thumb.Keira put her little hand on top of her mothers.”<br> She was slowly remembering. She hit the floor. She looked up at the ceiling. The ceiling became blurry. It looked like she was looking at it under water. It was her tears swelling up in her eyes. “ KEIRA!” Orlando screamed and ran down to her. He picked her up. “ Keira are you ok? What wrong? What happened..” he stopped. He saw the bracelet in her hand. He knew she had found it and didn’t know what to say. She found it. Keira looked up at him. “ My mum left me? Why did she? What caused her to leave? Orlando im scared. What’s going on?” Orlando looked down to her. He felt pity and scared also. He was scared on how Keira would react to what she was about to go through today. “ I think we need to go to the doctor now. Maybe he can help.” He said quietly. They went to the car and drove to the doctor’s in complete silence. They had a lot to say, but nothing came out. They were both scared what they sensed what was about to happened. Orlando parked and opened the door for her. The hospital was busy. Kids crying everywhere and lots of talking and hasting. The scent was completely different from when they entered thought the glass doors. Keira had Orlando on her arms. She felt as everything became silent for her. She looked around and saw kids crying from pain. She could only hear the footsteps of Orlando and her heart thumping faster and faster. “ We would like to speak to Doctor Jack please.” Orlando told the person at the front desk. “ You need to schedule an appointment. The doctor won’t see no one unless of an appointment. “ she said. “ Can you just please get us to the doctor and schedule the dam appointment later! “ Keria yelled with rage in her voice. Orlando was shocked and held Keira close to him. The employee held out her arm pointing her finger the direction of his office. Keira grabbed Orlando’s hand and ran down the hall. “ Which one is his office?” she asked him . “ This one.” He pointed to the door. She slammed it open. She saw him there reading some paper work and walked up to him. She slapped the necklace to the desk. “ Can you explain this?!” she asked him. “Miss Knightly, will you please clam down and sit down. “ Keira was furious. How can she calm down ? Orlando gabbed her and escorted her to the seat and sat next to her , holding her hand. It felt like hours , which was only minutes. The doctor told everything he had told Orlando. Keira just listened , not moving a muscle. It hurt Orlando’s heart to see her like this. He would tighten his grip to Keira’s hand. “ Keira, we saved you many times. We would ask you how you would get hurt like you had. You would only make up unrealistic stories and walked away.” Jack continued. “ So what your saying is that you expect my father hit me? Then why did my mother leave me if he did? Where is he now?” she asked hopelessly. “ We don’t know Keira. You will remember when your memory is fully back.” “Why do I keep having these weird dreams? Why does it feel like I’ve seen them before?” “ What are they?” she asked. She then said. “I don’t know their always really short. They look like their only clues. They change quickly to another form another. Their only pieces. There is one dream though. A happy dream. A man that saved me once. I don’t get to see his face though. Only some parts of his body.” She said. The doctor looked at her and sighed. “ It seems to me like your getting your memory back a step at a time. I can’t answer your questions Keira. You’re going to get your answers when you remember. Something will eventually trig your memory and everything will be clear. The bracelet is a little wake up call for you right now. I wish you luck. “
