David & Leslie in the maze

[liz]

Once she was finally at the maze she stopped at the entrance and looked back to David. "I just hope what happened to my friend doesn't happen to us, he was walking with some of his friends and as soon as they got to the exit, the maze changed and they had to go search for another one." she shivered at the thought of never being able to get out. She felt her pocket for her wand that it was in there so she should be A.O.K. She crossed her arms and peered inside not fully going in.

[davey]

David walked alongside Leslie, plotting his revenge on her but nothing really came to mind which had him rather frustrated with himself. Hearing Leslie beside him he looked over and chuckled slightly at the story she was telling and then shrugged slightly as he stuck his hands into his pockets. "Well if it does happen then we will find another way out. No big deal." He grinned and walked inside the maze.

Stopping and turning he saw that she had stopped before coming all the way in the maze. Stepping back beside her he gave her a little nudge with his elbow and a smile. "Your not worried about me scaring you or something are you? I wont be mean if you that nervous, geez." He grinned and took one of his hands out of his pockets and draped his arm around her shoulders. "Come on."

[liz]

Still looking she saw David walk in but then back out, and put his arm around her. "Me?" Her voice sort of cracked when she said so, guessing because his arm was around her, and shy mode was taking over, but she didn't want to show it. "Nervous? never." she joked. "Alright let's go." She said taking the first step into the maze. The thick hedges had a strong 'hedge' smell, and they were tall so looking over them would be difficult, she bet even if she stood on David’s shoulders she still wouldn't be able to see over. Or maybe because she was just 5"3 that everything looked taller. "Aren't there so post to be tasks that randomly come to be completed, that’s just what I heard." Her voice going off in a whisper until nothing was left. She didn't mean to do that, her voice had a mind of it's own.

[davey]

David chuckled when Leslie spoke, defying the fact that she was actually nervous. As she stepped into the maze he followed her and gave her a little squeeze before letting his arm come back around her and he stuck his hands into his pockets. Hearing her speaking again he looked down at her, realizing how short she really was standing next to him.. He stood at six feet and he guessed she was 5'2 or 5'3.

"Yeah, actually I've heard that. Wonder what may befall us in here." He chuckled slightly and looked down at her telling that she seemed kind of nervous still. "Hey, are you alright?" David's eyebrows raised upwards on his forehead and he nudged her again.

[liz]

She was kind of going off in her own mind again thinking too much about random things. She felt his arm squeeze her then when he spoke again and nudged her, she responded returning to her normal self. She jumped in front of him and was going to defy him again. "Me I'm just fine." She made up a little lie she was about to say but he probably wouldn't be able to tell. Turing around as she said "Just thinking up ways to avoid revenge." She did a little jog and walked up to look around the corner, seeing if anything or anyone was there.

[davey]

David heard her and gave her a little nod as he watched her running up ahead of them. "Well my dear. I'm sorry to inform you," He walked up behind her and bumped into her on purpose just trying to be mean now. "there is no way to avoid my revenge. I'm extremely talented and tricky." He laughed and ran ahead of her in the maze because of a random burst of energy. Turning a corner that was open at one point he came two inches from running straight into the hedge when it closed itself suddenly.

Staggering backwards he went to the opposite side that had opened and went inside it and stopped for a moment waiting on Leslie to come around. Then he pushed himself backwards into the hedge so that he was invisible.

[liz]

She crossed her arms at him when he nudged her and ran away. But she started giggling when she saw him run into a hedge. "Don't think I didn't see that." But he ran the other direction and Leslie followed, looking down the way he went she saw nothing but a long path that changed again at the very end. Suspicion came over her as she thought how could he run that fast. She crossed her arms again and even though as hesitant as she was, Leslie started walking down anyways. More like a speed walk then a walk. "David?" She called as she kept walking. She stopped then turned around again looking back down the way she came. She began to think she saw David go down a different pathway and she went down the wrong one. Shrugging her shoulders she kept tuned back around and kept walking.

[davey]

Hearing Leslie calling behind him saying that she had saw him he laughed slightly, his cheeks burning once again. Yet he didn't let that keep him from staying completely silent when she passed him a couple of times trying to find him. Once her back was finally to him he snuck out of the hedge again and got right behind her before wrapping his arms around her from behind and picking her up as he did.

"Gotcha!" He said as he let her to her feet again and took a step back in case she tried to hit him. Biting his lip the tried to keep from laughing as he stood still behind her.

[liz]

Leslie felt someone grab her and lift her off the ground, she gave a little scream and try to wiggle free, but when her feet touched the ground again, she quickly ran a few feet away and spun around, eyes wide. She opened her mouth to talk but nothing came out. To her right the hedges opened and formed a way through, she smiled at him then quickly ran in taking a left as she saw she could, then right there was another right she could take she went in and stood by the edge so her eye could look out to see if he was going to come or not.

[davey]

David saw her run forward and flip around and he couldn't help but laugh out loud at the fact yet he quickly bit his lip again and stopped himself as she opened her mouth to talk but no words every formed. Then as quickly as he had she ran off and he started after her. "Hey!" He tried his best to keep up with her but finally she disappeared and he stopped in his tracks for a second and let out a sigh.

"Leslie!" He started running trying to figure out where she had went and ended up passing the hedges where she had disappeared into. "Where did you go?" He asked in his low gruff tone that he usually used as his hazel eyes roamed around the maze in front of him.

[liz]

Leslie watched as he came around the corner and she stepped back. She froze as he walked right by her not even seeing her! Trying to hold in her laughter at that fact, it poured out, but she only let it last for a couple of seconds as she covered her mouth and quickly turned and ran, taking a right. Which without luck it was just a short dead end, too late to go back he would be already around the corner. Leslie sat at the end corner and just hoped he wouldn't see her like last time. This was all too fun, and she wished everyday could be this fun.

[davey]

Hearing her laughing behind him David quickly turned around and walked back and saw and opening and what he thought was Leslie disappearing around a corner. Taking off at a jog he followed and turned the corner as well to see Leslie at a dead end. Chuckling slightly he ran up to her and knocked into her shoulder slightly. "You are hard to keep up with." He laughed and put his arm around her shoulders with a grin.

"Sorry. I had to get my payback though... Although that whole running forward and flipping thing. Classic. Like if someone was really going to try and kidnap you or something they couldn't have caught you again." He grinned and gave her a little squeeze as he teased her.

[liz]

Leslie looked up at him. "Well I guess I would never have to worry I'd be long gone before they even noticed." She looked around at the dead end. "I'd still be on the run if it wasn't for this dead end." She looked down at her thumb then back to him. "Well I'd say were even?" She held out her hand for him to shake in agreement, "Truths?" This time she would remember to let go of his hand after a few shakes were given. Unless he didn't want truths, then she would have to think of another way to get him back. It would be a never-ending loop of revenge.

[davey]

David heard her and laughed as he nodded. "Well that is very true, you are rather quick." He saw her looking back at the dead end that caused her to be caught and grinned when she asked if they where even. After a moment he sighed and gave a little nod. "Yes, I suppose we are even." He took her hand and gave it a firm shake and then used her hand to pull her into him and gave her a hug. "Sorry about my having to get revenge." He chuckled as he let her go again.

[liz]

Leslie was happy when he agreed to the truths, but it was unexpected when he took her hand and pulled it to him. Grasping her in a hug, she hugged him back. Then when he let go she did the same. "Rather it was you and not some crazy person." She laughed giving him a smile. She never remembered smiling so much in one day, she could feel her cheeks starting to hurt a little; she looked down averting from his hazel gaze, as she leaned angst the hedge.

[davey]

David chuckled slightly when she spoke and nodded. "Yes, thankfully it wasn't some crazed man who has been stuck in the maze for years." His eyes got large as if to add to his dramatic story and he stuck his hands into his pockets after he had removed his arms from Leslie and the hug. Seeing her looking down now he cleared his throat and then looked backwards. "Well um. Should we continue to try and find the middle of the maze?" He asked looking back at her with a friendly smile.

[liz]

"Ouu very scary." She laughed standing back straight and looking forward "Ya that sounds like a good idea." To find the center. She started walking and decided to turn right opposite of the way they came. "I heard you get something if you find the middle?" She asked as she walked along, putting her hands in her sweater pocket. Leslie kicked a small rock along the path as she walked wondering how big was this maze anyways. She quickly took a sharp right and turned back to David to see what his answer was, only to see the maze change and close the opening that she just came through. Making a wall between her and David. "That’s not good.” She said hastily with a little fright in her voice. Looking down the new path that formed she could only go straight. Turning back to the now covered path way, she wasn't even sure David saw.

[davey]

David grinned at her and nodded before they started walking again. As they walked David stayed quiet for the most part until she spoke and he looked over at her. "Yes, I heard that its something chocolate.. Though what I'm not sure." He chuckled and then looked over to see a wall standing next to him. "Leslie!" He looked around and tried to figure out where she had disappeared this time and then sighed as he continued the path he was on. "Leslie! Where did you go this time?!" Walking he decided to try and find her again.

[liz]

"Well then..." Leslie turned on her foot and started walking that turned to a speed walk to a jog, then to a full out run. She turned the first left she saw but came face first with the wall. She made a loud grunt noise, and fell straight down. "Ow..." She said rubbing the back of her head, "That may leave a mark." She said rolling over on to her side. Slowly sitting up her head throbbed a little, head + ground = pain. She thought to her self but stopped as thinking hurt. She tired dusting off her sweater but didn't do a good job at it. When she stood everything kind of went spiny, kind of like it did in the morning when she woke up and stood up too fast when getting out of bed. She leaned on the hedges. 'What did my head hit?' she thought looking at the ground. Trying to see it seemed like a small rock. "Rightt...anyways..." She said quietly to her self ignoring her head pain and walking on still leaning on the hedge. "From now on walk. It's just a maze, nothing but pathways and hedges..." She came into a small clearing, guessing it was a break area. She walked over to the bench angst the hedge and laying down facing it.

[davey]

That girl is quicker than lightening I swear it. David wondered around for a moment and heard a grunting sound coming through the hedges on his left. Quickening his pace until the end of the hedge opened up and he walked through and looked around. Taking a left he started walking again and finally found a clearing. Walking for a bit more he saw Leslie lying on a bench and he walked up to her and put his hand on her shoulder. "Alright missy no more dis-"

David saw the dirt on her clothes and a scrape on her arm and his eyes grew wide with concern. "Leslie, are you okay? What happened?" David squatted down at the end of the bench as he looked her over quickly as he waited for her answer.
