I get out of the car and run to my room. Róza is packing.
"How many babies are you having?" Róza asks
"Two" I reply
"My Mommy had 4 but only Me and my sister Queenie survived, mommy had 2 other kids with her ex mikey they were called Ethan and Harry. Then mommy meet Rudy he made us so broke mommy couldn't look after us no more so we had to go into fosta care" she says.
I feel sorry for the kid. She continues packing, I just watch.
"So what's your story" she asks
"Abused all my life, I won't go into detail" I reply back.
"Ok".
I lie down on my bed with my phone.

I'm trying not to cry but it leaks out. And at that moment tears start flowing Remi walks in.
"Well I was sent to tell you that we are about to go for a swim, but you crying is much more important" he says, he's Irish so it sounds so sweet. He sits down next to me and puts his arm around my shoulders.
"I'm fine, just missing someone" I say.
He gives me a big hug, it's like cuddling a giant teddy bear.
He then gets up
"Brittany says your togs are in your wardrobe" he says well walking out.
I look in the wardrobe, red one piece togs with a sweet heart neckline.
I change into the togs, I walk out of my room and bump into Remi.
"You look pretty Blu" he says.
I look at him, messy dreadlocks, beautiful eyes and he's got abs.
"So do you Remi" I say.
He grabs my hand and we walk to the pool together, is this called love?.
We arrive at the pool.
"Hey Lillie!!" He yells.
Lillie is about my age (16), but not 5 months pregnant, lucky her.
"Wanna grab a drink Blu?" Remi asks
"Sure"
We grab a nonalcoholic cocktail, we go into the spa and drink the NA cocktail.
"So what's your story beautiful Blu ?" He asks.
I laugh 'beautiful Blu' seriously.
"Abused all my life, one night my stepdad pushed me down the basement stairs and the injuries were so serious I had to go hospital, the court hearing followed and bam I'm in foster care and five months pregnant thanks to him."
He's speechless
"So he r-raped you?" He asks with concern.
I nod
He leans forward and puts his hands on my belly, he smiles.
"Twins?" He asks
I nod.
He sits next to me and puts his arm around me, I rest my head on his shoulder, we stay like that for a while.
"What's your story Remi?" I say.
"Let's begin at thee beginning of me fabulous Remi Cyress Loveday, born into gypsy hippies, 2 siblings, Liberty and Faith. My mom was called Leilani and my dad was called Reginald but everyone called him Leaf and her Lani.
The government thought Mom and Dad were bad parents because the were gypsy hippies. In fact they were the best parents ever, they didn't abuse us and they homeschooled us, every Friday we would have a party with the other gypsy hippies in our group. You could say life was good, then one day the social workers came and took all the children under 18 away. I was 14" he says. "I'm running away when I have the chance "
His parents sound awesome, I hate the government.
He tilts my head so I'm looking and him then he leans in and kisses me.
It's love.
"From the moment I saw you I was madly in love, you make my heart pound, I love you so much Blu"
Fireworks are going off in my stomach.
"Hey lovebirds break it up!!" Lillie says "before Brittany catches you"
He doesn't take his arm off me.
"I love her and I won't stop loving her because someone doesn't want me too." He says. Then he kisses me again.
"Your just jealous Lillie" he says. She storms off in a huff.
We kiss again.

"Dinner!!" Colin yells.
We rush to the outdoor table, hotdogs and salad. I take 2 hotdogs and a bit of salad mainly hotdogs. Yum.
We eat, he kisses me again.
"Hey break it up, we are a family not a love bar" Brittany says.
He kisses me again.
"HEY I SAID STOP THE BLOODY YOUNG LOVE ACT!!" Brittany yells. We stop.
After dinner we go to our rooms, Remi pulls me into his room.
His room is chocolate brown with two king single beds.
He sits me down on one and sits next to me
"I'm going tonight you can come with me yah know" he whispers.
"I'm coming with you" I whisper
"Bring your favourite possessions tonight, pretend you had a nightmare
I'll be awake, but if I'm not say Remi I had a gypsy nightmare okay" he says.
"Okay, night Remi" I say kissing his cheek.
I go to bed and set the alarm on my phone for 12:30 am on silent so it vibrates enough to wake me up.
Buzz buzz buzz
I wake up check the time 12:32 am. I grab my favourite possessions my phone, a photo of Leo and some pairs of clothes.
I tiptoe out of my room and to Remi's room. He's awake.
"Ready to go Blu" he says "put your stuff in here" he says pointing to his backpack. I put my stuff in the bag.
"I have $820, I've been saving ever since I got taken away to return home" he says.
We go down stairs and out the backdoor.
"Wait I have to write a note so they don't come looking"
I write a note:
To Mrs and Mr Lockridge
Don't come looking we are fine just wanting freedom
From Blu Laurel Johnson and Remi Cyress Loveday.
We walk down the drive and out the gate, he pauses outside the gate away from the security cameras. He pulls out his phone and texts his dad. We wait five minutes, no reply.
"We will walk further down the road ok Blu" Remi says.
"Ok" I say
We walk for 10 minutes, then we stop its pitch black outside but I know we are safe.
"I'm going to call him" Remi says.
He types in his dads number.
Dad it's Remi, Gypsy daydream.
Okay thanks Dad bye
I promise I'll make it.
"He's in Rubanvolk the town after this one, they are there till Friday. We will be there in three days" He says.
We start walking.

7:23 am we find a cafe that specialises in cheap breakfast.
I have 4 bits of Nutella toast so does Remi but his is honey we also have a hot chocolate each in total, that is $5 pretty cheap.
We continue walking after we've eaten and gone toilet and changed into casual clothes that aren't our pajamas.
We walk for what seems forever.
"Remi I need a break, some rest" I say.
"At lunch time ok baby" he says.
We continue walking for another 45 minutes until a car pulls up beside us and offers us a ride to Rubanvolk, which is 20 minute car drive according to the driver.
He plays weird music which apparently is called reggae.
"So were you guys headin" the guy asks.
"The fair" Remi says.
"I'm driving past there so I'll drop ya off" the guy says.
He drops us off ten minutes later.
We hop out and Remi grabs our bag.
"Dad said go to Arwen at the candy floss stall." Remi says.
We walk to the candy floss stall getting lost twice before finding it. The lady runs to Remi as soon as she sees him.
"Remi Cyress Loveday I am so glad you came back" she says, she's looks at me " who's that beautiful girl"
"That beautiful girl is my girlfriend" he says.
She pulls me into a hug
"welcome to the family" she says. "Leaf and Lani are in there wagon having a break and tending your new sibling Sarin" she smiles.
We walk towards the wagon area, he spots there wagon and starts running towards it.
