"Look, I'm too old for this. I want nothing to do with you!" I tried to plead for my dad to let go. He wants full custody over me and there's no way in hell I'm letting that happen. "I'm sorry, but you're not legal and you don't have a choice."

The beeping and constant pounding in my head just kept getting stronger so all I could think of doing was running. And I did. I ran until I ran into a tall man who looked familiar, but I didn't try to find out from where and just ran more, apologising for running into him before.

It felt like forever before I finally stopped running. I couldn't tell where I was, but I was right next to a corner store, so I walked in and took out my phone.

My fingers moved faster than my mind as I typed in the one number I knew to call.

"Zach," I whimpered after the ringing stopped and I heard his voice message. "I... Hum... Call me back."

I quickly hung up knowing how dumb I sounded. I put my phone into my pocket before walking towards the door. I knew I was crying but I hoped that no one would pay any mind to me as I ran out.

"Jenna?"

The one voice I don't want to hear right now.

"Please, leave me alone." I begged walking faster than I had been before. "Jenna," The voice repeated.

"please dad, let me go, I don't want to talk to you."

With that I stormed out and opened my phone again to see several texts from Zach. Just as I was about to open them he called me.

"Jenna? Are you okay? What happened please tell me you're okay. Are you crying?" He drowned me in questions and I just whimpered a small "no." I didn't even know which question I was answering.

"No what? Jenna?" His voice cracked and something snapped in my head. He cares about me. Zach cares if I'm okay. What did I do to deserve that? I could be just another supporter who he doesn't even know the name of but instead he's called it several times to know if I'm okay.

"Zach," I whispered, nearing a store, where I stopped walking. "Can you come get me?" I asked, the tears returning. I hate being dependent on someone but I don't know where I am and there's no way I can walk home.

"Yes, send me your location on iMessage. I'll be there soon," He muttered and said goodbye. I took a deep breath and sent my location. He replied quickly saying he was on his way and that I should just go inside the store and wait for him, which I did.

It felt so quick, that Zach got here. Maybe it was because I was in a state of shock but it felt like a split second before Zach ran into the store yelling my name.

I walked towards where I heard the voice and the expression held on Zach's face broke my heart.

"Zach!" I called. He ran towards me and embraced me in a hug. "Are you okay?" He asks worry clear in his tone. "No, but I don't want to talk about it."

He caught on and slipped his hands down my arms so we held hands. "I'll take you home-"

"No!" I almost yelled at Zach. A questioned look appeared on his face but he kind of understood it was my family before offering to go back to his place.
