The Secret Garden, just a myth as far as Mary-Lynn was concerned she had never seen this place nor has she ever seen a doorway leading towards the delightful smells of a hidden garden ripe with love and mysticism. Still the lengthy form of Mary-Lynn scurried across the marble floor that made up the school halls. She made her way around, in high heels the only sound being the tapping echo of the steel heels that curved in the shape of a quarter moon leaving the sky. An unusual look for Mary-Lynn, as she dressed like anyone else, wearing a pair of silken shorts she had originally saved for bed but with the warming weather it was starting to seem more like a must. The form had her arms crossed and was making her way through the small tunnel off-shoots of the hallways. Forever the click-clack of the steel carved heels echoed on through the empty halls.
That smell, that deep passion intense smell of roses. She breathed in deeply, which almost made her head woozy with the sudden rush of smells. Her fingers escaped from the clutches of her side and pressed against the cold stone wall, pressing slightly against it, this little hole. Perhaps a peeping hole at one time, that showed Mary-Lynn exactly what she was smelling. The deep colors of red and white blossomed even under the moonlight of the sky, colors of purple, yellow and blue appeared from the corners of her view. As a long sigh escaped Mary-Lynn, she leaned against the wall, almost desperate with hope that she would find a way in. She thought too soon as it seemed the castle responded to her will of the garden, the stone walls opened with a crumbling and crunching sound of rock crushing against itself, allowing Mary-Lynn to fall in since she had been pressed so deeply against it.
Falling into the plush green grass, her fall cushioned by the delicate manner of the Garden. The golden yellow tones widened then stared around in the utmost disbelief as she sat against the grass and looked around. Hands reached out, the thumb cut style of long sleeve shirts covered her torso as they moved out and pushed herself back onto her feet. Carefully taking the few first steps, as she didn’t know what would pop out, or even what she would see in here. Her steps were careful and light, making sure to step with her toe so that the heel of her shoe wouldn’t dig a hole or leave a large print behind. Her face rose and she looked up to the sky above, just enough light to make this area even more spectacular. The long hair tied back by a white ribbon into a pony tail, the end of it grazing over her back as she watched the stars peek through for just a moment.
A deep breath rushed through the woman as she took a few more steps inward to the Garden. She could see across the Garden a new way to get in and out of this area, carefully she stepped through the garden taking a few moments to stop and stare at the flowers that surrounded the small inset. Fingers grazing through leaves of daffodils and tulips, brushing along the tops of rose buds as it sent a gentle shiver through her entire form. Quickly she stopped, leaned over and grabbed the back straps of the high heels and pulled off the shoes one at a time until she was back on level ground, her feet pressing into the soft touch of grass surrounding her feet making her entire body shake just slightly. Her head lifted once again as she held the heels in one hand holding her face to the sky, a gentle whisper escaping her ’’Where the wind blows…The smell of life follows everywhere…’’
She dropped her chin once again, staring across the Garden, step by step the no-so-teacher looking Mary-Lynn made her way through the soft plush and generous smells of the flowers that surrounded her. The only sound left now was the soft clap of the heels as they struck together every time the bounce in her step was a little too big. ’’Come out….Come Out….Wherever you are…’’
