*Morning*

"GOOD MORNING STARSHINE, THE EARTH SAYS HELLO!" I heard screaming. I pried my eyes open to see Bobby standing over top of me dancing around.

"Shhhhh!" I said, reaching my arm up to hold a finger to her mouth, "God, you're so loud."

She grabbed my hand and pulled on it, "Get out of bed, its noon."

This only caused me to grab her pillow and cover my head with it, "So, I'll sleep all day."

"No!" She said, "Adam, Micky and I are going to the park today; if you want to come you have to get up." I groaned, finally sitting up. "There you go!" Bobby said enthusiastically.

"How are you so giddy and happy?" I asked her.

"I slept really, really well last night." She told me with a smile.

"Even after that nightmare?" I asked, this only caused me to remember that I cuddled with her all night. I smiled; I can be giddy this morning too.

"Yes," she said cheerfully.

"Okay," I let out a sigh, "So, when are you planning on leaving?"

"Like, two." She said.

I stood up, "Well, let me go home and get ready. Then I'll be back, okay?"

"Okay." She said.

A while later, I returned to Adam, Bobby and Micky's house. I re-did my makeup. I also wore my ripped skinny jeans and a plain black tank top that fit my form. I also wore a bunch of necklaces (Including my favorite cross ones), bracelets, combat boots and a leather jacket.

"Hey gorgeous, you're here quicker than I thought you'd be." Adam said, as I walked in the door.

"Well, I don't take as long as other girls." I told him.

"Well, are you ready to go?" he asked me.

"Yeah, are Bobby and Micky ready?" I asked.

"Yeah," He said, and then turned to yell, "Come on guys we're leaving!" Then I heard footsteps, Bobby and Micky were racing out the door. When Bobby made it to the car before Micky, she pushed Micky out of the way and did a little victory dance. I laughed and followed Adam to his car.

On the way there, Micky sat in the front seat and was playing with the radio. A Metallica song came on and we all froze. Micky began belting out lyrics; Bobby and I soon joined her.

A while of singing a bunch of songs later, and we finally made it to the park. Bobby bolted out of the car and ran to the swings. As I got out of the car she was holding out her arms and yelling, "Addie! Come push me!" I laughed and walked over to the swings, beginning to push her.

After a few seconds of pushing her, Micky ran over to us and pushed me out of the way, "Hey, its my turn." I laughed and let her push Bobby. I walked over to Adam, who happened to be sitting in the car with the door open.

"You don't look like you're having fun." I told him.

"Yeah, well, I want to spend time with you." He said, getting up and closing the car door.

"Okay, well, what do you want to do?" I asked.

He stood for a while, then smiled, "Lets go on a walk." He told me, grabbing my hand and walking with me down the sidewalk.

We made friendly conversation. But walking for a while, there was a bunch of people by a building. They had identical jackets on, with their hoods up. They were spray painting the building and I think a few of them had guns. Looking a bit closer, I noticed that they were a local criminal gang that I've seen on the news a few times.
