"Craig, I-" I didn't know what to say. It's not like I was leaving much behind, but... How could I part with all of my stuff? Maybe I could ask Cassie to help me sell it, and she could send me the money. Yeah, that might work! I looked back to Craig. "You guys, I need TJ to come with me back to Starbucks. You're all welcome to come, but I'm there for ONE reason only. "We'll all go." Monte and Craig said at the same time. I smiled. "Guy, I'll race you to the Starbucks near the hotel." I said, getting a head start. TJ was right behind me, and so were the others. I got there first, of course. I walked inside. "Caity Belle!" Cassie shouted, running from behind the counter. "Cassie Marie!" I squealed. "Oh my gosh, you brought friends. Aha, cute ones at that." She smiled, looking at Craig. "He has a daughter." I said. "Oh. Well, what brings you here?" She asked. "I need you to do me a huge favor. If I put all my guitars and piano, and all that stuff up for sale online or something, will you get the money from people, and then send it to me?" I asked. "Wait, why?" She asked, her brows knitted together. "Well... These guys offered... Well, the guy with the beautiful daughter,Craig offered to take me back west with them. I would love to, but... I still have a house here, and stuff. I'll take some of it, but... The rest of it I'm willing to sell. I'll even give you my Les Paul that you want. Y'know, the black one? So, whataya say? Help me, please? These guys leave tomorrow." "Of course I'll help you, Caity-Cakes." She smiled. "Thank you so much." I smiled, almost in tears because I couldn't believe what was happening. "Caity, you're coming out west with us!" Craig smiled, picking me up. "Looks like I am. Can somebody back there take a picture of all of us? Even you Cass?" I asked. "Zacharee!" Cassie sang. Zach was good at taking pictures. He took my phone. "Everybody get close together and say Escape The fucking Fate!" He smiled. We all made various faces, and he took three pictures. I took my phone back, thanked him and let him return to his work; stacking cups. I tagged all of them on instagram in the caption, and posted it as "MY NEW FAMILY <3" and uploaded it. I was so happy. I was just waiting for something to come along and screw it up.
