On Your Doorstep

They ended up on your doorstep, quite literally. Bloody, possibly. Bruised, most definitely, though the wounds may be mental. You probably don't know them from Adam, yet you couldn't find it in you to turn them away - whether they wanted you to or not. So you opened up your home, just for a little while.

But it's getting to be more than a little while. Both of you are finding a comfort zone, because you didn't simply open up your home. Admit it or don't, but you've opened up your heart all the same.

Their's is slowly following, if its reluctant at all.

Oh, bother indeed.

"Why, hello Eeyore. Hello Roo." the boy smiled, waving at them both. "Did you want to fly kites with us?"

"Maybe later." the donkey answered. "First, we need a little help."

He tilted his head back, gesturing to Roo to explain.

Roo looked away sheepishly at first, wringing the edge of his shirt in his paws. But eventually he had to say something, so he looked back up at Christopher Robin with his ears drooping as he explained.

"I kiiiindof...got hurt..." He mumbled, moving his arms so the boy would be able to see the long rip down his front as he continued to explain exactly how it happened.

Soon, Christopher Robin was lifting Roo off Eeeyore's back, reminding him that when a mom says no, there's usually a good reason behind it. Roo, he supposed, just learned a valuable lesson.

"You can fix him, can't you? The way you fixed me?" Eeeyore asked.

"Of course I can, Eeyore." Christopher Robin smiled. "I'll be right back with my needle and thread. And soon, everything will be good as new."
