Count of Monte Cristo! Count of Monte Cristo! I've been wanting to write about this for a while…Now I am!

Okay…I don't own the story, but I own a school copy of the book. (That means not all the chapters are in it.)

Nothing Wrong

It happened again…

Why must the world be so cruel to you?

Why do you have to back away?

You just want to help…

You can do things others can only dream of,

So ... why?

You have done nothing wrong.

You have done…nothing…

"Haydee! Haydee, please, wake up!" Dantès gently shook a young girl lying next to him in bed. He was very worried when she didn't react the first time.

The girl opened her eyes, "Dantès…"

"I'm glad you're awake," he held her tight against his bare chest, "I was afraid…did you have a bad dream?"

"I'm sorry…I did…" Haydee started to cry, "my dream…you were hurt…I don't want to see you hurt!"

She fell into Dantès arms and cried. Dantès held her close and let his head fall on hers. "It was only a dream, my love, do not be afraid…I will always be here."

"You promise?" Haydee was still a very young girl. Her eyes showed innocence that Dantès once knew so well.

"Yes…I will never leave you," he smiled, "I will always be there…to hold you when you need to cry."
