Lets Run Away

Chapter 1

New book!!

CHAPTER ONE

"STOP!" I scream, even though they won't, "I can't take anymore of this! I am only 15!" I try to wriggle my way loose, but he pushes me deeper into the mattress.

CRACK

Another painful blow on my naked back. Tears stream down my face.

"Stop squirming you little shit!" She chimes in. I move around, irritating them even more. Then, I kick my leg out, making contact with her gut. She falls back and drops the belt. He lets go of me and rushes to her side.

"That little-" I slam the door behind me, racing into the kitchen and out the front door. I run into the woods, towards our tree house. The hatch is open. Cam must be in there.

I climb the ladder briskly and slam the hatch down. My stupid parents don't even know this place exists.

Cam is sitting in the corner wrapping up a gash on his arm.

"Holy shit! Cam! Did he stab you?"

"Actually my mom did" he turns to face me,"did they whip you again?"

"Yup" I say, pulling down the mattress we keep in here. The tree house is actually like a house. We have a t.v., generator (both stolen), some lights and a bed. We've actually spent the night here together before (not in that way perverts!) when our parents obviously hate us.

"You staying here too?" He asks turning on some lights and the tv.

"Yeah, and even if I wasn't, I would've stayed to keep you company"

Ok look, I really like Cam, but he only cares for me like a sister. We've known each other forever. And I think when we were five, we got "married".

"Thanks" he lays in the bed with me, letting me cuddle up to him.

"Cam?"

"Yes Jules?"

"I just can't handle this anymore"

"Handle what?"

"My parents"

"Don't Jules, I want to enjoy tonight"

"I do too but, I just want to sleep without have to worry about being beaten the next day"

"I have told you I want us to run away, but you've always said no"

"I thought we were too young then..."

" So we can do it? We can run away together and never look back at those fuckers?!" He pulls away a little to rejoice, and I feel cold at the sudden loss of contact. Oh man I love him.

"I think we should do it, but where do we go?" He lays down back next to me and I stare into his deep brown eyes. His hair messy and I can't help but get the feeling. Why is he so sexy?!

"Well, we go down south to Watertown since its kinda small and then we crash there until we find some where else to go" he must've thought of this before.

"Yeah that sounds good," I yawn," how about tomorrow we talk in more detail?"

"Sure. Goodnight Jules" he kisses my forehead sending warmth through my body.

"Night Cammy" I kiss his lips light and quickly. I wished I could've kissed him more. Hopefully I don't make him uncomfortable...
