My mouth opens and I’m not sure how to react after that, no guy has ever talked to me first let alone seen me in my Bra! Why am I over thinking this, he was rude by just coming out and saying that to me, He has probley had sex with like 20 girls and that's why he is so confident, yep that's it he doesn't even like me he just wants to get in my pants. By the time I’m finished my shower, dressed myself and on my way back to the cabin we are staying at, I've decided he was just a horny and bored teenager. I open the door of the cabin to find my mum curled up in a ball on the ground crying, I sit down next to her and hold her, " mum, mum, Bella " I try mum and Her name but she doesn't listen. I yell "Bella" because I know it’s the only way I can make her listen, even though it reminds her of my dad yelling before he starts brutally hitting her. She finally looks up “sorry Chloe I shouldn’t put you through this, you shouldn’t have to see your mother cry, you shouldn’t have to be scared of your own father, Please tell me what I can do to at least try and make your life better. Even if it’s going to hurt me I don’t care you need a better life” I start to tear up “Mum if you want to know what would make my life better I’ll tell you but please don’t take it the wrong way” She nods for me to continue “ I want to go back to our house get all we own and bring it here, start a new life here. Never speak to dad again, we don’t need him. I want for you to get a job here make friends and I want to start at a new school” A small smile appears on her face, she must like the idea. She stands up grabs her keys and tells me to come with her.

Our trip consist of us singing songs together, this is the happiest I’ve seen her in, well, ever. She keeps her smile on and tells me about her childhood, how she used to sneak out her bedroom window every night because her mum and dad didn’t like her boyfriend and wouldn’t let her see him. Then about one time how her whole class pulled a prank on her English teacher, they all hid from her until the end of the period. Mum continues to tell me things about her life until we finally get ‘home’. Dads cars not here so we are all clear to go inside after 4 hours of packing we both have most of our things, on her last trip to the car mums got all the baby photos and important stuff. We both sit and sigh, happy to have that over and done with. Just before we leave she runs back inside and comes back out with a hand full of cash and two big money tins. “all this cash is your dads ‘secret drinking money’ this tin is for end of year school fees and this is for when you turn 18” she points at the biggest one”  She answers all my questions at once without me even having to ask. I sleep all the way back to Roma caravan park (were our caravan park is) and for another few hours. When I finally wake up the car is fully unpacked, I walk inside still sleepy. No he is not! There he is sitting there having a cup of tea with MY mum, the boy from the showers, He and my mum see me at the same time he stands up and looks as shocked as I do, I get a proper look at him he is kind of tall but not super skinny he had light brown hair, hazel eyes and oh a lip ring that he is biting. “Oh hunny your awake, this is Winston, he was walking past and saw that I was having trouble unpacking our stuff so he offered to help me, isn’t that sweet” OH MY GOSH, we give each other a quick smile but he seem nervous? “And Guess what he only live up a few cabins and he is 16 only a year older than you!”
