The Little Gilbert Huntress

Chapter 2: I FOUND YOU

Hesitantly I walked to the front door thinking of what their reaction would be. Would they like me. Tell me to leave. Take me in perhaps. Of course this had all crossed my mined before but now that the moment has finnaly come, I couldn't think of anything else.

I counted to three. 1 -- 2 -- 3 . I took a deep breath and rung that doorbell as soft as I could hoping it wouldn't work."Oh well looks like no ones home I'll just-".

The door opened and their was a boy about sixteen or seventeen wearing a black shirt, some blue jeans, and black vans.

"Is Your name by any chance jeremy gilbert" I asked trying to act professional for some stupid reason. " Ya... who are you? " he asked as if he'd never seen me before. Probably because he hasn't.

I didn't want to go into detail and everything so I just plain out told him. "I'm your cousin Kenzi who everyone thought was dead".

He looked at me as if I were speaking Chinese. So confused. " This isn't funny so if you came to joke around, leave now before-".

" Jeremy who's at the door". I heard another voice call out.

" Just some girl trying to make a fool out of herself." He said.

" I'm not trying to make a fool out anyone" I said in frustration " What I'm telling you is the god damn truth. If you don't. believe me then-".

" Kenzi is that you?" It was the same voice I heard earlier. Why does that voice sound so familiar? I thought.

The door opened wide where I could see a girl with long dark brown hair wearing a purple long sleeve and some jeans. God why does she look so familiar it's on the tip of my tounge I swear.

She walked towards me slowly and slid her hand across my face. I looked and her eyes were filled with tears and for once in my life.....I felt safe.

Her hand was so smooth against my rough and bruised cheek. She then placed her other hand on my other cheek and said.

" We all thought you were dead. How are you alive?"

Before I could respond she grabbed me behind my neck and pulled me close enough to her so she could give me the biggest hug ever.

For some reason that I really can't explain the first word to come to my mind was.....home.

I quickly wrapped my arms around her and said,"thank you". I then asked," by any chance is Jenna home".

She stopped crying and slowly pulled away. She said, "Nope it's just me and my brother Jeremy."

"Well do you know when she's coming back I'd really like to see her." I asked

Jeremy quickly said, " She's dead. Died about a year ago".

" No no no!" I yelled as I leaned against a wall and slid down. " Your lying. She can't be dead. I need to see her. She thought I was dead this entire time. She needs to know I'm alive."

"Well it's to late now" said Jeremy.

"Jeremy there's no need to be rude. Why don't you come inside kenzi", asked Elena .

"Sure Why not". I said

As I walked inside I couldn't stop staring at the family photos. They look so happy in their photos.

I wished I could stay here forever.

" You guys look so happy. Where are your parents?" I asked.

Elena looked at me in sadness. It was as if she had seen a ghost. "They past away about 3-4 years ago". She said.

"So it really is just the two of you. I'm sorry for your loss." I said with devastation.

"Well now we have you so I guess its the three of us".

"Ya. I guess it is." I said putting a crooked smile on my face.

" So do want something to eat.....like some pizza." Elena asked.

" Yes! that would be great I haven't had pizza since I was like 10. " I said in excitement.
