Keep Me

“Adelaide,” Lucy said, hopping of the beam to be walking through the planks of wood in the middle of the track. “What?” Adelaide asked, plainly.
“Promise you will keep me,” her words were almost lost in the wind, so quiet and frail.
“What do you mean?”
“Don’t ever leave me?” It wasn’t supposed to have came out a question. Adelaide stopped, put on hand on Lucy’s shoulder and uttered the words, “I promise to never leave you, Lucy, I couldn’t possibly live without you. I need you.”
