Blooming Dreams

"Erik come on come on come on!" A little girl with long flowing purple hair chanted. Her brown eyes sparkled with glee as she tugged her twin brother out of the house. The pair were both six and lived in a small town called Liatris.

Liatris was located in far west Fiore, around 25 miles away from Clover Town. They were a rather closed off town and rarely experienced visitors due to the fact that the town resided in the middle of a forest. There were a few mages that resided in the town who used their magic to provide for the community. A small river ran through the center of town allowing villagers to merely go outside their house to gain fresh water. It was a small community so they just worked for themselves, such as growing their own food and hunting. All members of the town were very peaceful and disliked any type of conflict.

She wore a plaid purple shirt accompanied with black shorts. Her hair was styled half up and half down lightly curled at the end. Sleek black boots rested on her feet as they crunched against the fall leaves.

Her brother wore a purple vest with a red undershirt. His jeans were a light gray color and his reddish hair was swept carelessly off to the side. Worn out black sneakers were on his feet.

Erik laughed at his sister's impatient actions. "Where should we go today?" The young boy tilted his head to the side. A small smile forming on his lips.

It took no time at all for her to come up with a response."Flower field!" The girl cheered happily as her brother smiled at her.

Erik poked his twin before he laughed a bit. "We always go to the flower field. We should try something else." He let out a little whine. "Please Elle." He drew out the last syllable of her name, as he used puppy-doll eyes to try and plead his case. 

Elle giggled before responding. "So where do you think we should go?" She tilted her head curiously. The twins often just go to the flower field, and it was a new time that one of the pair had suggested otherwise. Therefore, Elle was rather curious what her brother would say.

Erik opened his mouth to speak before shutting it again. "Uhhhhh." Was the intelligent comment that came out of it. He really hadn't thought this through before he had asked her.

A victorious smirk appeared on her face as she started to drag Erik off into the distance. "You don't have an answer." Elle cooed playfully. "Last one there is a rotten egg!" She cheered letting go of his hand.

Erik let out a yelp of surprise, before darting after the purple haired girl. He pumped his legs, easily gaining on his twin. "Who's the slowpoke now." Erik said teasingly. 

Elle turned to him, her eyebrow lifted slightly. "Still you." She remarked just as Erik ran full force into a tree. The boy let out a screech of pain tumbling not so gracefully to the ground. 

Slowing her run down, Elle jogged over to her brother. She squatted down offering a hand to him. "You good there? Erik let out a groan of pain, attempting to sit up straight.

"Dizzy." He murmured clutching his head that seemed to be spinning a hundred miles a minute.

Letting out a grunt, Elle pulled Erik off the rocky ground. "Come- on-." She huffed. Elle slung an arm around his waist and half dragged him the rest of the way to the flower field.

Once they finally arrived, Elle dropped to the ground among the flowers. Her body embraced by the roses, daisies, tulips, lilies, any flower one could imagine was there. They moved to encompass her and her brother as they stared up at the crystal blue sky dotted with little pearls.

"This is always the best place to go." Elle smiled. "The flowers always seem to heal us." 

Erik rolled his eyes which went unnoticed to Elle. "Maybe to you, but I still feel like I ran into a tree." He grumbled.

A light laugh escaped Elle's lips before she could stop it. "That's because you did."

"Little brat." Erik huffed. A loud smack resonated and Erik's startled shout followed right after. 

He turned on his side to see Elle waving her pointer finger at him. "I'm the older one. Don't forget that." A teasing smile had appeared on her face.

Erik scoffed lightly as he responded. "By like five minutes." He stared at her unamused at the sudden 'older sister' card.

Elle's smile grew even wider at that. "That's still five minutes older." She sat up her hands pressed lightly against the flowers. "Which means I'm five minutes wiser." Elle used her left hand to flip her hair that wasn't tied up. 

"Hey I'm pretty sma-" Erik started up but Elle quickly cut him off. The boy sent an indignant glance  her way.

"Plus," She droned out. "I'm pretty sure that you lost one of your two brain cells in the run in with the tree." His mouth dropped open in shock before settling into a determined grin.

Without missing a beat, Erik leaped on his sister wrestling her to the ground. He leaned in close to her face and whispered, "But I'm stronger."

Without hesitation Elle quickly kneed him in the groin causing him to topple off her in pain. "You look like you're in more pain as well." She commented. 

"Yah!" He exclaimed leaping up to chase her. 

"Catch me if you can!" Elle called letting out a little giggle as she jumped up and started running. Her hair came out of it's previous position allowing it to flow freely. 

The pair ran around the flower field for a long while. The jade green grass was crunching under their feet, as their feet thudded against the ground. A soft breeze encouraged the chase, sending the flowers waving at the twins. The cobalt blue sky watching over them. Little creatures darting among the little blades of grass, as they chittered with each other.

Slowly but surely the twins ran out of energy and decided to merely lean against one of the willow trees in the meadow. "We should probably get soon." Elle commented. "Mom and Dad will worry about us."

Erik shrugged once before muttering under his breath, "Doubtful." The girl slightly nudged him so he glanced at her.

"They do love us, just...." She trailed off looking for the correct wording. "In a different way." She finished with a bit of hesitation.

Erik rolled his eyes, plucking a leaf out of the wind. "You know they don't." He muttered gloomily. Elle was about to respond before Erik cut her off. "If they loved us, Dad wouldn't hit Mom. If they loved us, Mom wouldn't drink that weird stuff."

Elle's eyes shifted downwards. Her mouth tried to form words but no words were spoken. A strangled breath of air escaped her lips. Finally finding her voice she said, "We'll get out of here." Elle gazed at the horizon, the sky painted beautiful hues of purple, pink, and blue. "I promise."

"We'll do it someday." Erik said, reassuring both himself and Elle. 

A weak smile worked it's way onto Elle's face. "Let's go home." A nod from Erik had them both racing to get home. Leaping, bounding, and running across the land.
