Blake:
We're at the pawn shop, Katie has a bunch of jewelry to sell, we need money for the road. I glance at her, her long black hair in a loose pony tail, her blue eyes dart to mine, worry plastered on her face. "I'll give you 3,000 bucks." the Guy at the counter says. Katie nods and takes the money. We run outside to our friends. Katie's older brother Jordan is sitting at the wheel. Jordan is my boyfriend and he is gorgeous. His jawline is that of a model, his lips are full, but not too full, his hair black like his sisters and falls around his face framing his bright green eyes perfectly. His sister looks like him a feminine way and many consider her beautiful. She hops in the back seat and I in the front. Jordan leans over and plants a kiss on my lips, his vertical labret brushing my lip. ''How much did you get?" asks Jonny and Brittany at the same time. "Three thousand." Katie whispers. Brittany is braiding her long black and blue hair and sighs. "That's all?" she asks. I nod "The guy at the counter was an asshole." I say rolling my eyes as we drive onto the freeway. We're on our way to Florida. We're running away. Katie and Jordan are faced with parents that do nothing but put them down. Brittany just needed to get away, and I, I was in love and following my love. Jonny had a horrible drunk for a father and decided to come with us. Jonny and Jordan were the only ones who were 18. Brittany was 17, I am 16 and Katie will be in two weeks. Katie is petting her Rat, Oscar. Jonny throws his legs over Katie's lap, and the rat crawls onto them. He giggles as it crawls into his shirt. Jonny is gay, and one of the reasons he left home was how judgemental our town is. Katie never really said why she left but the bruises say it all. She's asleep by the time we arrive at a hotel. Her brother picks her up and caries her to a bed, Jonny climbs in with her and she snuggles into him, if he were straight I'm sure they'd be a cute couple. His face looks awkward but he holds her anyways. I climb in a bed with Jordan and Brittany takes the couch. I drift off into sleep as Jordan whispers "I love you."
Katie:
I wake up to arms around me and my heart flutters. Jonny. I get up and walk away from the bed quickly but not waking him up. Blake is awake and smiles at me. Her large brown eyes are worried and her smile fake. Her black hair falls to her shoulders and her nose ring hanging out slightly. I straighten my septum ring and look down. "Sleep well?" I ask softly. She nods and I smile. "We should wake them up." she says. I run and jump on my brother and shake him. "WAKE UP JORDY WAKE UP!!" I shout and giggle when he pins me down and tickles me. "J-Jordy stooooooooooop." I laugh and roll around. I roll off of the bed and sigh as I flop ontop of Brittany and she groans. "Get offffff." she mumbles and I pick her up and throw her on Jonny, "WAKE UP!" Blake, Jordan and I shouted. In 30 minutes we were out the door and on the road. I soon fall asleep once more, Oscar nestled under my chin.
