Let Me Sign

I was five and he was six.
That tree was what we were playing underneath. Our childish laughter echoed around the care forest until he fell into a pile of golden leaves left by other trees
"Roberttt" I squealed and dive bombed the pile of leaves and more laughter followed
"Meals" Robert whined and prodded at me.
This whole scenario was strange as we played around in the leaves. I couldn't seem to tell what was missing
"Where are your sisters?" I asked and he say up and shook his head like a dog ridding water from his ears
"Busy Meals." The boy looked sad when he replied "Do you wanna play with them now?" He asked quietly and I shook my head rapid.
Footsteps.
Both of us froze and sat there as another girl turned up, Robert relaxed
"Rob, Amelia, it's time to come home" The girl was older as she waited for us to get up and run ahead of her, every so often I'd hang back and stare at the older girl like just her being there fascinated me, ever so often she looked down at me and Robert would shout my name and whoosh, I'd run back to his side and we'd talk about nothing.
Flashforwards
Another cake, this time it had "Amelia 6th Birthday" on it with wobble icing, Robert stood there proud, his blue eyes shining through like nothing would ever change.
A small thin package stood beside the cake and Robert pushed it forwards
"Open it Meals!" He begged and nudged it with his hands. The wrapping paper was silver and glittery, so I made special care not to rip it as I undone it.
A thin box was unveiled and smoothly I lifted the lid off the box.
"Oh my, Amelia isnt that pretty?" My mother's voice made me nod, the gift was beautiful.
A gold chain with a heart pendant on it. At 6, I'd never seen anything so beautiful
"Its for when you're older Meals" Robert grinned, obviously super proud of himself
"I'll keep it safe forever." I promised.
Flashforward
"Amelia would you like some juice?" Robert's mother Clare asked me, as we watched television
"Please Miss Clare" I replied politely and she chuckled at me
"You can just call me Clare Amelia." She said before she left
"Robert"
"Amelia?" Robert replied pealing his eyes away from the television
"Why does everyone make fun of you?" I asked, remembering how some boys had teased Robert before he had got up and walked up to them, talking calmly to them before they laughed and walked away
"Hm? Oh um. No reason" He replied, I pouted
"Robertttt"
"They said why was I hanging around with a girl." He said quietly
"Whats wrong with that?" I frowned, unable to figured out what was wrong with it
"Nothing Meals. We're best friends forever" He grinned widely and I smiled
"Play Piano?" I asked, and he stood up with me following suit.
"Any day" Me and him high fived.

"Amelia, hello? Anyone home?" Sarahs voice jolted me back from my day dream
"Huh?"
"Wow you really zoned out, I was just saying that this is going to be awesome because Robert Pattinson is going to be at the after party with us"
Robert Pattinson? It cant be the same guy. Just coincidence.
"Who does he play?" I asked, my voice strained from interest as I tried to persuade myself that the names weren't linked in anyway.
"Cedric Diggory" She sighed dreamily, I chuckled awkwardly.
I'd read the some of the books I didnt fawn over any of the characters, if anything I thought Ron was the funniest.
"Yeah, I think Ron's better to be honest."
The sky darkened and soft rain pattered down
"We better not get wet Sarah" I threatened and we both laughed, waiting like everyone else for the stars to arrive.
