A/N- Sorry for the lack of updates today. I haven't been home since 7:45 am, and now it's 6:21pm. So, yeah. Enjoy!

-----------------------------

I was low on food, and I couldn't exactly walk into a gas station with blood dripping from my face. Fuck.

I take out a first aid kit I forgot I had, and cleaned the wound. Then I put on a hell lot of concealer. Looking at my makeshift mirror, I'm fairly satisfied with what I see. You could barely tell I had been attacked by a bear a few minutes earlier.

I then mounted my bike, and pedaled away.

----------------------------

I was in a gas station grabbing some food when a lady walks up to me.

"Excuse me ma'am, are you alrighty?" My heart rate quickens.

"Um.... yeah. I'm good."

"Are you sure? Your face seems a little bit, um, scratched up." I scramble to find an excuse that would work. 

"Oh yeah, that. I messed up a little bit with my makeup, and I'm out of face cleaner. So embarrassing, am I right?" I laugh, trying to lighten the mode. She raises an eyebrow.

"Whatever you say, miss." Then she walks away.

------------------------

I stop for the night. Tonight will probably be my last night before I reach my destination. So I settled down, knowing it might be my last night of freedom. My last pain free night.

Well, almost pain free. My face was still throbbing from earlier, but not as bad as it was before. I gaze up at the night sky, my thoughts wandering.

And instead if bad thoughts, I thought of good thoughts. Like that one time a year ago I went to a Twenty One Pilots concert and got to hold Tyler up as he crowd surfed. The time when I first heard Stressed Out, and fell in love with it. The first album I bought with my own money. How I used to always stay up till the wee hours dancing to music. When I had a crush on my ridiculously hot P.E teacher.

I smiled. My life might've been terrible, but there were still high points. And no matter what happens tomorrow, I'm glad I've lived.
