~Chapter 23~
Reminds Me Of Me
*
Waking up I heard strange noises from outside of the tent, Wilson was not next to me as usual...but this time it felt....different. I walked out of the tent to find it is still night and Wilson in huddled in a corner. "Wilson you o-"
"(Y/N)~" Wilson spoke softly
"I found more!!!" He yelled in a gruff voice.
"Found wh-?"
"I FOUND MORE!!" Wilson turned around, with sharp jagged teath he pounced and I jumped back. A whole army of tiny birds behind him, they began to peck and scratch at me- and than I woke up....
"That was weird" I said to myself, looking to my side to find Wilson missing. "Uh... " I walked out of the tent to find it was night time. ...Uneasy I looked around, Thank god Wilson wasn't in the corner.....instead he sat on the log and peered into the bird cage, watching the tiny bird rest.
I decided to walk out and talk to him, instead of watch like a stalker.....
"You really like that bird" I said with a smile, sitting next to Wilson on the log. "Yea..." He said in a daze, I tilted my head and he glanced at me through the corner of his eye.
"O-Ok if I tell you...don't laugh" He spoke uneasy and I waved my hands about, "I won't I won't" I reassured.
Wilson took in a deap breath and then looked at me, "Tiny Bird reminds me of a younger version of myself.." He started and I smiled, I looped my arm in his and looked at the bird
"How so?"
"I.....I never got along with my family well. Part of the reason I moved out on my own so early and did science expiraments in a shack. I got away from them, and I was happy...They never. Liked the idea of me being a scientist. They were never supportive. They were never happy to see me...."
My grip around Wilsons arm tightened and he continued,
"What I'm saying is that I found the egg, The bird is separated from its family and alone...But it has us....I had no one....So I want to do my best, and, and, make sure no one feels alone or at a loss. Even a Little bird such as him" Wilson gave a weary smile
'Well you did steel the egg away from its parents....so I mean part of why it's alone i-' Wilson broke my thought when he hugged me tightly.
"I know that didn't make much since but....Your one of the very few people who are there for me"
"I think. I-I Know. I d-d-d-o"
Wilson stuttered
.....
"I love you (Y/N)"
