          Gavin & Isla walked, or tried to walk. Isla tripped in a pothole and fell. She hit the concrete hard and got a hole in Gavin's sweatpants. "FUCK" Isla yelled while trying not to laugh to hard. "OH MY GOD, ARE YOU OKAY?!?! Wait, are you laughing or crying" Gavin asked. "Both" Izzy said with tears in her eyes. Not from laughing, from pain. She really tore up her knee. "Can we go to the car and get out the first aid kit. My knee is fucked up pretty bad" She said while covering it so Gav couldn't see it. She tried to stand up but couldn't. "Uh, can you help me please. I can't really walk or stand." She said. "Yeah, come here" Gavin said pulling her up and carrying her like a baby. "This so embarrassing Gavin. People are staring." She said.

           A older couple walked up and asked, "Mam', is that guy hurting you and kidnapping you. He looks much older than you & you look 12." The woman said. Gavin & Izzy looked at each other and burst out laughing. "He's not doing anything. He's my boyfriend and I fell and I'm not able to walk. He's 2 years older than me exactly & he's a cop. He crys when he see's a racoon on the side of the road dead, so I don't think he's capable of kidnapping anyone." Isla said between laughs. "Hey, you said you'd never tell anyone" Gavin said while turning red from embarrassment. "Oh, okay. So sorry for bothering you, we just wanted to make sure nothing bad was going on. We lost our daughter to a kidnapping so we just wanted to make sure you're parents wouldn't lose you." The man said. Isla started crying because it was the opposite. She lost her parents, but they wouldn't have cared if they lost her. At least her mum and stepdad wouldn't.

          Gavin realized this and gave her a 'can I tell them' look. She nodded her head as a yes. "Actually, she lost her parents. She only 16 and all of this happened so fast. She lost her biological father at 6 in a shooting at the fair. Her dad is Damien Smith, you've probably heard about him. He's a hero. Not too long ago she lost her mum and stepdad. Her stepdad got put in jail and was murdered in a jail fight. When her mum found out, she Uhm. She hung herself. But Police Sergeant Mance, he adopted her and her brother since they already had a great relationship and was more of their parents then their own parents were. They basically grew up at his house since her parents were always out drinking and doing drugs. Sometimes she stays the night at mine since we're together, but I'm not gonna adopt her since we're together and I'm only 18. She's actually graduating a year earlier than she's supposed to since she does so well in school even though all of  this has happened to her."

          "Oh, I'm so sorry hunny. I hope everything goes well for you and your brother." The couple said as they walked off. Isla just held onto Gavin crying because all the memories came back again. Gavin held on until they got to the car. He opened the door and set her down so he could get the first aid kit. He grabbed it and pulled up her pants so he could take a look at it. "HOLY SHIT, ISLA THAT'S HORRIBLE!" He yelled. "No, it's fine. I can stitch it myself okay. Please, I don't wanna go back to the hospital. Please Gavin, let me do it." She said and Gavin gave in. He handed her the kit and she started working on her knee. She started stitches and worked her way up since it was a long, wide, and deep cut. "How can you do that so well. It's like you've done this a bunch of times." Gavin said. "Well, after cutting yourself so much, you gotta learn how to take care of it. It's honestly quite easy and you get used to the pain of stitches without using numbing cream." She said. Gavin felt bad for asking.

          Isla finished it and asked Gavin if she could take Tylenol since what happened the other night. Gavin opened the pill bottle and gave her 2. "You ready to go eat. Wait, actually, where are we?" She questioned. "You'll see" Gavin said picking her up again.  He realized he forgot the bag and set Isla down to go get it. "Hang on Isla, I have to go get my wallet." He lied. He had his wallet, he just needed an excuse to go grab the bag with her dress in it. He had a different bag with their bathing suits. He came back to brag Isla and decided just to tell her where they were going. "So we're not going to McDonald's, we're going to *insert fancy restaurant cuz idk any except Olive Garden, but thats kinda lame*." He said. "But I don't have any clothes. I look like a homeless person. I meanz I normally do with how I dress, but a nice restaurant looking like this, I'm just worried we'll get stares." She said. Gavin just handed her the bag.
