I had been driving for about two hours now. I didn't know where I was going, I just know it was far away.
I had a full tank of gas and I planned on driving until it was empty.
My friend had called me multiple times, but I sent it to voice mail, I did not want to talk to anyone. The thoughts that were running through my head were killing me from the inside out... I started crying.
"You can't give up now Hazel.." I told myself this over and over again... I wanted to end it all but something told me not to. Something was telling me that my pathetic, worthless life was somehow going to become better...

-A Week Later-
It's been a week since I left home... I'm living in my car, which is terrible.
I have spent a majority of my saved money and my car is out of gas. I somehow ended up in LA... My heart told me to drive and drive and I ended up here. No one is able to get a hold of me anymore, my phone is dead. I walked to a gas station to go to the restroom, like I usually do.
"Hey sweetheart." I turned around to see a guy coming towards me. I rushed towards the bathroom and locked it.
"Come out little girl you can't be in there forever." I heard him speak and he sounded so familiar...
"Go away!" I screamed back.
"Now now. That's no way to treat your boyfriend."
"Go away Michael! I told you we were over!"
"I didn't say we were over."
"I did! Now go away or I'll call the cops!"
"Sweetheart, now don't do that. I love you. I just want a hug."
"Fuck you!"
I stayed in the bathroom for a couple of hours... I didn't come out until they told me to.
I walked to my car looking in all directions. No one in sight. I got in my car and climbed into the back..

"Got you!" I felt a mans arms wrap around my throat causing me to panic.
"I knew youd come back for me Hazel."
He slammed me down onto the seat causing me to see nothing... I blacked out.. Again.

-Next Morning-
"Good morning baby." I heard a faint voice say.
"W-who is t-tha-t?" I was still out of it.
"Me baby, you know, your boyfriend, Michael." That brought me back to reality. I sat up and backed away from him.
"Come here sweetheart." He tried pulling me towards him but I kneed him wherever I could and I made a dash for it.
"Get the fuck back here!" He started running after me and I just ran faster and faster.. As fast as I could go.
It felt like a nightmare that would never end...
"Help!!! I'm being chased!!" I yelled at the top of my lungs hoping someone would come to the rescue... I ran into the street to find a car coming towards me.
"STOP PLEASE!!!" I stood in the road hoping they would stop, they did.
"Are you alright!?" The mysterious man said.
"No! My ex boyfriend is chasing me!"
"Get in my car."
I got into his car and he drove off before Michael could catch up.

"Thank you.." I said trying to catch my breath.
"No problem, where do you live?"
"I don't have a home... My mom and dad kicked me out..."
"Oh my.. Well I'm sorry. I can take you to my house, I'm sure my friends wouldn't mind.
"You look familiar."
"I do? Who do I look like?"
"Ghost... From Motionless.. OH MY FUCKING GOD IT IS YOU!!!!"
"In the flesh. I'm guessing you're a fan?"
"Fan!!? I'M FUCKING OBSESSED WITH YOU GUYS!!!!!!"
"Even better. Well that just saved me a shit ton of time. I won't have to introduce you to everyone."
"Haha nope."
"Well when we get there I can show the guest bedroom."
"Thank you again."
"You're welcome sweetheart."
'He called me sweetheart!!!' I was freaking out on the inside, hoping he wouldn't notice me smiling like an idiot on the outside.

We arrived at this huge house. It was all black with a huge front door. It almost looked like a gothic mansion I should say.
"We're here."
"I fucking love this house! Its gorgeous!"
"Just like you."
"Awh thank you." I smiled and blushed.
"Hey guys. I found this pretty little girl running and decided to bring her home. She's a huge fan." Ghost moved away so everyone can see me.
I saw Chris, Ricky, Balz, Ryan. and Angelo.
"Uhh... Hi." I was in such shock that's all I could spit out.
"Hello." Chris said with a smirk. Ohgodohgodohgod.......
"I'm Hazel Alice... But call me Hazel."
"Hi Hazel." Ricky came up and gave me a hug.
"Sorry if I stink. My parents kicked me out about a week ago."
"We are in a band, we usually all stink." Ghost said as he put his hand on my shoulder. It felt like I was in a dream... I have met my favorite band! And they are letting me stay with them?? What is this!!!?? Not reality I know that!!
"Am I able to get a shower now?" I asked shyly.
"Sure hon, bathroom is upstairs, last room on the left." Chris said.
"Thank you for letting me stay here."
"No problem." They said.

Ghost's POV
"I give you 2 days until you say you like her." Ricky said
"I say a day." Chris and Angelo agreed together.
"I say a week tops." Balz said.
"Fuck you all. I do not like her. She's pretty and I wanted to be nice."
"Yeah, you like her." Chris said.
"I don't like her!" I shouted out as I was getting furious.
"Alright dude damn, just fucking messing with you." Ricky said trying to calm me.
"I'm going to my room." I walked up the stairs and into my room which was right by the bathroom.
"Uhhh Ghost... Do you have any extra clothes I could borrow... My clothes are in my car.."
I turned around to see Hazel in a small towel, with her hair dripping wet.
"Uhh... ummm.. what? Yeah! Sorry..."
"I'm not making you uncomfortable am I?"
"What? No, it was just a shock to see you."
"Oh I'm sorry."
"No you're fine, I might uh,, you're good..." I cracked a small smile.
"You're too cute."
She walked in slowly and sat on my bed waiting for me to get some clothes.
"I really cannot thank you enough for this."
"It's my pleasure Hazel. You can stay here as long as you want."
"Thanks."
"Here you go. You can get dressed in here, I'm gonna head downstairs."
"Okay I'll be down there."
"Alright." I smiled and walked out, closing the door behind me.
I really like this girl...
