John wandered aimlessly into the meadow with no real point whatsoever except to have no point. John pressed himself against a tree and looked lazily over the meadow. John liked the meadow. His grandmother had a fancy for it before she.. passed away. John set his face just thinking about her. John never really knew why his grandmother liked this meadow. Was it the peacefulness? Or was it something else.. John furrowed his brows.
John sighed and slumped onto the base of the tree. He glanced across the bottom of the meadow. John understood why his grandmother liked the meadow. It was a place to center ones thoughts, or; let them run free and wild. John felt his eyelids drooping slowly. Then he was asleep, and peaceful comfort stole over him.

April was walking in the meadow talking quietly to herself. She was in a good mood after breakfast. She started to pick off petals off a flower. The grass was almost to her waist. The wind blowing through her brown hair and April's light pink lips opened up with a smile. It was a sunny day and you could hear a little bird singing with her in the distance. April saw a could tree to rest upon. She started heading that way. When she was about 10 yards away she saw a figure leaning against the tree. She couldn't really see what it was because of all the grass. She stopped singing and tried to figure out what it was. She started to walk closer to the figure.
She stopped. It was a boy asleep laying against the big tree. He looked almost about her size maybe a little older. He was tan with brown hair, which was combed. He was wearing a white shirt with a brown vest on top. April was scared and ran behind a tree.

The pixie-like fem skipped jauntily into the seemingly empty meadow. Her beautiful face was turned upwards, facing the sky, as she danced through the meadow. Alice liked it here. It was wide and open and allowed her to dance freely around it. Although mainly devoid of life, it still had a happy feel to it on this particular day. The bright summer sun danced off of the almost waist high grass. Her short frame dance absently as she focused on her enchanting song. The petite ess sang a complicated song that wove up and down, sometimes reaching crazily high-pitched notes. Her beautiful vocals hit the notes with ease as she skipped forward, head still turned upwards.
Out of the corner of a single emerald eye she caught sight of a boy. He looked close to the same age as she, and he look pretty harmless. She skipped over to him, only to realize he was sleeping. She back away, sitting down a few feet from him.

Leah, please remove the "when suddenly the boy opened his eyes." from your post.
You may only write the actions, thoughts, feelings, etc. of your own character. Having Pie's character open his eyes is what we call "god-modding" or "power-playing". There's more, so if you have questions, PM me.
Only if the other RPer confirms beforehand that you are allowed to god-mod or power-play to a certain extent, allowing you to do a certain action or allowing you to let them do a certain action, will god-modding / power-playing be okay.
This is a warning, so please don't do it again. Alright? :]

John shifted in his sleep. He was having a particularly disturbing dream. He was reliving his grandmother's death again. "No" he said out loud. John shifted again in sleep. "No" he repeated.
Johns grandfather came home with a look on his face that had never been there. "I need.. time alone.." His grandfather ducked into his own room. John looked up from nto your grandfather" And then his father tentatively opened the door. John blinked, it was not unlike his grandfather to come home, tears in his eyes, crying over one of his distant relitaves getting a broken arm.. but this was differant.. John shrugged and returned to his book. He was getting to the good part where Prince Devilas kills Sir Moncummder. Then his grandfather's door opened slightly. John looked up, annoyed, only to see the door. John pondered for a moment, then curiosty got the better of him. John stole qietly towards the door, as quietly as a 12 year old could be (Witch was a lot). John peeked his head in through the crack to find his father and grandfather on the bed. John gasped. His grandpa was heaving sobs that shook through his body, tearing him mentally apart. The bed was soaked with tears, and his father held onto his grandpa's shoulder telling him it would be alright over and over again, looking as though he didnt belive it himself. "She's dead" grandpa said over and over again. The words echoed in Johns mind.John stirred. "Shes dead."John's numb fingers let the door go, witch swung quietly into the room. Johns figure was rigid as his father turned, slowly, with a dreamlike quality. "John" John was sweating now, his face covered in hot sweat. "Your grandmothers dead"
"NO!" John yelled, sitting up as fast as lightning. John's hands were clammy and his hair was messed up from sitting like that for so long. John was a mess. It took a while of panting and telling himself that it was a dream before he could register a figure in front of him. John looked up to see a small, lithe figure sitting before him. John stared at the figure for a while before he was returned to the normal world again. "Hi.." John panted, embarrassed that this female had seen him dream like that

Alice sat on the ground and watched the boy in front of her, thoughtful. The boy sometimes shifted and mumbled in his sleep, which troubled Alice. He seemed troubled. He then shot up, screaming quite loudly to no one in particular. The pixie-like fae glanced at him, her green eyes filled with concern. "Are you all right?" she chirped, her soprano vocals tainted with worry. He had seemed as if he was having a bad dream. Whatever it was, it must have been pretty bad to make a grown boy upset like this.
Hearing him speak to her, she parted her bright pink lips in a dazzling smile. "Hi. I'm Alice." she chirped, her voice cheerful. Her small frame was almost engulfed in the tall grasses that she sat in. Being only four foot ten, she was definitely not a large person. She was thin and agile, weighing in at no more than 80 pounds. But although small, she was beautiful. Her dazzling white spike, her jet black, spiky hair, her full, pink lips, everything about her normally drew others in. Until they met her.
You see, some found Alice annoying. She was a being that radiated with happiness, sometimes a little too much. The others also found her constant singing and dancing annoying, too. But the truth was, she sang and danced because it reminded her of her parents, who were now passed away. The petite fem felt like if she lost music, she would lose what little remained of her mother and father.

John self consciously smoothed his hair back behind his ears and straightened his vest. "Hi Alice" John was amazed by her voice. it was soprano high, and musical. "Im John. How are you?" Alice seemed willing to forget his twitchy slumber and he was too eager to forget the dream. It was the 67th time, and counting.

April hated that she was there. So she thought that she could sneak out without them noticing. She started to walk slowly and quietly. She was about 2 yards away from where she was, trying to be like agent she told herself, she stepped on a branch. She frooze with reddness flooding to her face. OH NO!

John snapped his head towards the sound, only too see another girl standing the grass's, looking like she had been caught doing something. By now John had regained his dignity and stood up, offering her his seat. "Hello"

April was shocked...She looked around for some where to hide. She could feel her ears and cheeks get warm. She didn't want to talk to anyone right now or well ever. She looked at the boy and then the small girl. The girl was pretty with pale skin. She didn't want to be apart of the conversation. Out of no where she ran and hid behind a bush. She thought to herself 'Oh I'm so stupid!!'

John blinked. That was not something that happened every day. John's eyebrows furrowed. He dropped his arm witch was still open in a friendly gesture towards his spot. John stood their for a while, deciding whether to pursue the woman or sit back down again. Finally, he came to the conclusion that Alice wouldn't mind a moment or two alone. "I'll be right back Alice" John bowed swiftly to Alice then trodded quickly over in the direction the young lady has dashed. John stopped, for the woman was nowhere to be seen. instead, he tryed a diplomatic tactic. "Hi, my name is John" John spoke loudly, feeling slightly foolish but having a good goal in mind. "Would you like to sit with us? I wont mind if you choose not too.." John waited expectantly for an answer.

April heard the man calling for her. She wanted to be alone and away from others, but she didn't want to hurt the man's feelings. 'I'm going to stand up and introduce myself....Ya I can do that!' 2 seconds later she was still sitting down 'Come on April!' she thought to herself, even though she didn't know if the man was still there or not. After 10 seconds she stood up. "Umm...Hi my name is April." ask she spoke she looked down without even looking up. She told herself that she would run away if the man had walked away and she just told her name to herself, but after she got done saying that she looked up. There he was.

John smiled. The lady was standing up now. She had a nice figure. "Hello April" he said warmly, not wanting to appear threatening. "May I bother you to too sit down? You don't have to if you don't want to" He added quickly

April looked to back down to her feet. She thought over what he said. She wanted to reply so he didn't have to stand there. She spoke "Well, I guess," but she didn't move. She just kept looking down at her feet, Then she started to walk towards the boy with her eyes down. She looked up when she was 2 feet away. She started to blush.

John grinned. It would be nice to start up a conversation with someone who wasnt happy with everything. Not that its bad or anything John thought quickly. John started to guide April back to the tree they were in. John stopped. "Um.." John couldn't really remember what direction he had come from. "Um.. hold on.." He fumbled apologetically. "Oh, this way" John smiled at April and walked back to Alice's tiny figure
