Calum

He quickly stuffed his bag with a few light things he could carry on foot. He took whatever he had left of his parents memory, the money has been saving up and two outfits.

He wanted to get out of there before Edward got home or it wouldn't be pretty. He was still sore and bruised from the beating 2 weeks ago, that beating was the thing that pushed him over edge planning to leave.

You see Edward wasn't always like this, he and Calum once had an amazing relationship it was love at first sight really.

You see they had met in the school's library reaching for the same book a copy of Pride and Prejudice, when their hands met Calum felt spark and when he looking looked into his eyes he knew he fell in love. They spent the rest of the whole day in the back corner of the library Calum missing his last lecture of the day. They talked about everything and anything from their lives at home to their hopes and dreams, things that they loved and hated.

And with each hour they spent together Calum fell deeper and deeper. Their first date was magical really and as they layed in the daisy filed looking up at the night sky Calum knew he would be the one.

But it all changed two years later when Edward lost his job and took up drinking. At first he would come home piss drunk blaming Calum for things that he were out of his control. He started to feel that yelling wasn't working he would hit Calum, the first few times he really didn't think of it he just thought it was the alcohol but when it started to get worst leaving bruises scattered across his body and people started to ask questions his lame excuse weren't working as much. the first time he tried to leave it didn't work out Edward found him at the nearby motel dragging him out by his hair, Calum screamed for help but no one really cared that day was one of the worst beatings.

He vowed that he would get out of this but he would have to plan it all out or he wouldn't make it out alive this time.

So for the past few weeks he sorted out an elaborate plan to get out of Australia and go stay with his best friend Michael in New York, he would be using the last of his money that his parents had left him and whatever he had saved up.

And as he stuff the last of his belongings into his bag he heard Edward car pull up. He tugged on his shoes rushing out the back door towards the front, he heard Edward calling out his name. Hey ran as fast as he could the streets nearly empty at one in the morning. His mind focusing on the thought of being free which made him run faster and faster. And after 15 minutes of running he finally felt that he was far enough from what he used to call home, now he was by a park by his old high school.

he didn't except to find no one there around this time but he saw boy tall and frail standing on the cliff his back turned towards the water eyes closed he look like he was about to jump.

Calum started to run towards him screaming "No don't do it!" And as the boy took his final breath taking two steps back Calum had finally reached him engulfing him in a hug and pulling him into his embrace whispering into his ear "It's not worth it."
