yes trying to see what it was knowing it was moving closer looking around the tree eye brows raised shivers up his arms spotting it moving standing right up as ruffled in dried leafs looking at the ground intensely while it still moving closer toward him watching intensely at this barreled round long noise critter moving leafs as it walked then all of a sudden lights from a car coming into the lot just lit it eyes up glaring at him shiver be on anything scared eric quickly escaped the raft of the critter running the outer section of trees to the ramp area out of breath stopping bent over sweating checking the surroundings for another place to hide looking over just below the ramp area a declining area hearing water rushing eric carefully watching his steps into the wooden area reaching one small stream passing over shallow rocks seating down he could see the moon above feeling relived away from sight from anyone just a few feet from the stream laying down on dried leafs looking up to the stars slowly closing his eyes feeling safe dora pickup her two children and smiled back waving to follow her pulling around the lot to the exit jacob following right behind her only a few blocks later they stopped at a locale restaurant finding two space s next to each other dora stood by the front of her car waiting with her kids while they exit the car walking over jake spotted

all being almost the same age and interest not so much in games but horse s also returning to the motel jacob sat on the bed talking to penny telling her about their evening with dora and the kids while jake curled in next to him watching the tv while he talked jacob advising penny it might be better to explain eric to the girls before eric just showed up knocking on the door maybe or just in case he did before they got back sitting looking towards the window sides watching the amber lights casing around the curtains inside penny also shared news to jacob the paperwork starting the legal proceedings with the lawyer had been filled out already and sent back just in case he was picked up beforehand jake of course falling asleep being such a long day for him jacob trying to wake jake to talk to his mother but he was to tired not even budging off the pillow eric leapt to his feet when he heard something approaching among the tree lines adjusting his eyes wiping dried leaf s from his chin amongst the misty air coving the area having one of his night mares about his father beatings again being scared sweating looking outward after hearing heavier steps coming right towards him then there right in the opening was the silhouette bear eric could only say to himself eye wide looking at the silhouette moving feeling scared quivering his chin frustration set in knowing this was it dropping as closed to the tree as he could holding his head between his legs arms wrapped around holding them closed all cringed in fear shaking starting to cry waiting for the attack danny shit you ok kid hurry towards him then stopped next to him looking down holy shit danny said seeing him curled up shaking back and forth go back and call in the police turning rushing back while the other man stood looking down asking hey you ok eric let out a scream as the man touch his shoulder backing away from him now watching him shaking holding his legs together only now recognizing it wasn t the bear grunting it was more human slowly bringing his head upward his watery eyes squinting looking at the heavy set man standing bent over towards him easy kid helps on its way mumbling bear the man looked around himself no bear s here were you attacked by one eric sat up more looking at him starting to get closer eric back into the tree with a grunt hitting it while watching the palm of his hands upright stopping him ok kid just take it easy helps coming eric looked over to the trees then back over to the stream spotting a farm house off in the distances i m glen what s your name waiting for a reply eric brushed his jeans off with another quick check around setting his eyes on him again bobby i must have fallen asleep here last night what where you doing out here last night looking at the stars by the stream brushing leafs from his hair feeling sticky on the ends bobby helps coming will get you home why don t you come with me holding his hand outward to eric to take eric looked down and back up leading himself back straight upward next to the tree home man my dad s gonna whoop me i gonna go eric starting to move away from the tree hold on a second with one foot moving closer towards him eric quickly responded darting his hand hurrying around the tree into the stream rushing around rocks crossing it as fast as he could feeling every rock beneath him into a golden greenish yellow field of wheat stopping bent over anxiety sweating now gripping his jeans on the knee caps hidden away from view getting his breath looking to the ground spotted his shoes and pant legs soaked covered in wheat he had to look back just to make sure the guy didn t follow slowly turning popping his head up just over the wheat looking back with a sign relived no one in sight turning for sight of the house only to spot it to the right of the field with a snap back hearing a truck coming raising upward looking towards it spotting a ups van going around a curve seeing it wasn t far making his way in the wheat tags blog blogger blogger s eric family fiction jake novel posted in uncategorized leave a comment holding eric 24 april 20 2015 holding eric part 24 spending the night behind the plaza hidden from view by a large recycled paper bundle hoping no one would bother him eric curled himself around one folded cardboard box keeping the wind and coldness away disturbed twice by motorists taking a short cut around the buildings to the roadway sitting upward pulling his jacket together slowly waking looking to the sky seeing the sun rays casting in the alley pushing the cardboard cover aside standing up hearing only motors from the other side running checking over the bundle while scooting closer reliving himself not a moment too soon turning his head quickly around something moved seeing it was the soda can rolling smiling for a second before looking down brushing off his pants finding he slept near a dirt pile walking around the sun warm building towards the front area checking trucks and cars before going inside walking inside the travel store was like walking in an old stucky s almost everything the same layout having to walk along shelves of cheap travel store specials mostly to take back home with you telling you were there every state seemed to have the same type of junk trinkets eric checking the shelves as he walk to the rear past the small with yellow plastic booths to the counter area with only five stools seating himself down two stools away an older man bending over eating his eggs scooping the yoke with the toast watching the yoke dripping back on the plate eric trying not to stare at him retrieving the menu almost knocking over the glass sugar jar from of the holder glancing sideways at the waitress cooking hearing the sizzling seeing it was hamburger with a smile smelling it i ll take one also and fries eric said to her she turn looking at him coming right up honey wants some coffee nodding yes back as she placed fries in the basket dropping them going back to finishing walking around the counter setting it down at a table with one younger couples returning with the coffee setting it down cream smiling down eric like her right off very cheerful older more like a grandmother helping out than a waitress no thank you wait do i need it frowning raising upward from the burnt smell let me see here smells strong maybe you better leaning over the holder with her low cut blouse showing her lacy bra eric tried not to stare as hard as it was looking down at his cup i ll make fresh just for you sweetie eric smiled back spinning in the stool checking the tables again seeing how the hamburger was cooking on the grill hamburger juice and ketchup dripping down on his fries eric wiped his mouth a few times finding the napkins so thin and small using four at a time still getting on his fingers licking them right off luckily she was getting busy with other customers piling in for something to eat one or two families came in with their children playing with table toys while they waited she didn t forget eric more less letting him eat in peace keeping an eye open making sure he had plenty of coffee she even brought him an orange juice eric finished looking back towards the restrooms spotting the clock above the doorway just as the waitress walking around the counter eric asking eleven thirty is that the right time holding fresh pot of coffee ready to pour him some eric placed his hand over the cup no i m good too much already smiling leaning over setting the check down staring right at him that s be about lunch time around here such beautiful eyes anyone ever tell you that before and of course had to lift his hair upward showing both eyes better yes and they re mine not some contact lenses that change color very bright blue raising her head checking his hair waving from the air conditioner blowing eric again brush it back amber she raised her cheeks smiling down amber husky guy asked looking over after sitting himself on the stool hey how about some service over here sure thing the menu right in front of you change in her tone towards him looking back at eric so you live nearby

chatting with on hand raised waiting well looks like back to work i ll be back in a shake of a stick eric watching her walking over to the rude guy with a cup and pot of coffee pointing her finger at him then to a sign no rudeness allowed you don t like the service leave filling his cup right to the rim leaving no room for cream well what will it be i m busy here holding her small order book waiting eric not wanting to stare at them looked away checking out how much it was the price more than he realized it would be he only had a few dollars in his pocket smiling at himself reaching down taking his shoe off bring it to his lap lifting the inside foam padding removing two twenty s setting one on the check finishing off his cold coffee waiting for her to return one lady frowning over her blue sun glasses as the waitress went by retrieving the check and cash hurry down making his change returning spotting more coming in waiting for service take care honey it s been nice talking with you stop in anytime thanks on our next run will be sure to stop placing three dollars under the cup spinning around after spotting the bellowing upward smoke from the grill getting much loader inside fading the background music out remember the candy rack he passed going in picking up four candy bars and bottle of mountain dew even grabbed a small free traveler s guide before heading outside checking out the newspaper racks before dangling his feet seating on the pipe railing next to them enjoying his candy bar watching the trucks backing in or just leaving after getting fuel sure enough drivers spotted him asking if he needed a ride some just looked mean or creepy dishearten with some heading the other way before the right one came along heading to austin then to san antonio eric wasn t about to say no it was texas he waited over an hour already finished off three candy bars and his mountain dew following alongside the driver he seemed friendly enough not to old nor to young clean shaven knowing he couldn t be too bad stopping in front of a large red freightliner he pointed to it this is it looking down seeing he was hauling something under a large tarp on the flat bed go ahead the doors open walking on past the door checking for the exhaust pipe making sure it wasn t hot or anything carefully stepping on the bent on one end steps opening the door hanging onto

running away from home no just missed greyhound after it stopped for a rest stop didn t they know you didn t get on no i don t think they even checked who got on or off that doesn t sound so convincing looking over at eric in doubt no really it s stopped and we got out to rest then they took off while i was in the shitter that s too bad that they just took off without checking i know and i got left behind why didn t you just call home sure that would really piss my dad off that s why i m hitching rides home so he won t find out he d say it was my fault and beat the hell out of me for
