Chapter 5- The Zoo

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Agreed"

Willy stayed close for a brief moment before leaving Mallie's grasp.

"Girls don't worry, i've been near death many times"

Mallie and Noodle exchanged looks

"and .. that's ok with you?" Mallie said confused

Willy and Noodle started to go in on near death experiences but the fact that Willy had been close to death shook Mallie up. She didn't want to but the thought of him getting hurt or dead hurt her, a lot, too much in her opinion. When she finally tuned back in, Willy and Noodle had found the giraffe room, Mallie jogged to catch up to them.

Willy opened the door and they walked in, staring up to look at the giraffe. Willy slowly walked up to the giraffe.

"Hi my name is Willy Wonka and if you'd allow us we'd love to have your milk Miss...uh-"

"Abigail" Noodle said, shining her flashlight at a sign in the room

Mallie walked over and stood next to Willy

"Don't worry, you'll be reading that in no time" Mallie jokes, Willy turned to her and laughed

Willy began to milk the giraffe and the topic turned into rhyming using names

"Nothing rhymes with Noodle" Noodle complained

Willy and Mallie laughed,

"No way there's gotta be something that rhymes with Noodle" Mallie said still laughing

"Boodle Noodle"

"Poodle Noodle"

"Canoodle Noodle"

By this point, everyone is laughing their heads off. Suddenly, Noodle laughs died down and Mallie turns to her.

"Is something wrong Noodle?" Mallie asked concerned

"It's just", Noddle starts but then suddenly stops herself, she glances over at Willy and Mallie who are waiting her answer and takes a deep breath, "for a moment i forgot to feel sad"

Willy and Mallie listen as Noodle begins to sing about how she doesnt feel sad anymore with all the adventures the three had had together. While it filled her with joy to see her happy, Mallie couldn't help but feel bad for Noodle. She didn't deserve this life of servitude, she deserved to be a kid. By the time the song finished, Mallie pulled Noodle into a long hug trying to contain her tears.

"One day I'm gonna help you get the life you deserve," Mallie whispered into her ear, making Noodle hold her tighter.

Willy finished getting all the milk and they put it in the crate and began to walk. Noodle, who was pushing the car, suddenly sped up and then came to a fast halt making Mallie and Willy stop in their tracks.

" I have to urgently get this milk back to Scrubbits, don't worry about catching up with me" Noodle proudly stated and looked at Mallie and give her a single wink, with that she practically ran away

Mallie could feel her face burning up, she really hoped that Willy had not seen that wink. She had no idea she was really that obvious with her slightly growing feelings for Willy. Mallie has never really been one for personal relationships growing up, but she suddenly got the realization that over this year, she has made more friends than she ever imagined. Her parents were never really there, the most vital relationship for a child, she thought that she was just an obligation that her parents had to meet every once in a while. She never thought she could have feelings like this.

"You alright Mallie? you've been off in space" Willy asked

"Yeah sorry, i was just thinking" 

"About what?" Willy pried
