"So you're ready?" Zach asked nervously. I nodded. It wasn't something I wanted to do, I really didn't have much choice in the matter.

We where flying to Adelaide, Australia to get away from everything. I listened to the tapes, all thirteen and I couldn't bare it. I had to get away from this hell hole and the people in it.

It was currently 2am in the morning and we where stood in the airport about to board the plane to Australia.

Walking through the tunnel, Zach took the bags and we stood on the plane.
"This is it" he smiled. I laughed and placed a soft kiss on his lips,
"And I'm not sorry about it"

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

Me and Zach lie naked it our hotel bed, legs intertwined and looking out to the whole of Australia from our large window.

My fingers traced his bare chest whilst my other hand laced with his,
"So we move in the apartment tomorrow" he said happily, I smiled and nodded. The thought of us living together and finally starting something made me so happy.

Zach got a job teaching kids basketball and I got a job at a local water park lifeguarding. Looking to my left, I see my phone buzz once again.
Thousands of texts from friends, my parents, Dylan, Clay ... the list was endless. Zach pecked my cheek and spoke,
"Don't worry about them baby".

I sighed and went back to playing with his fingers. Tomorrow better me great.

I slowly felt my eye lids start to get heavy and Zach kissing my forehead. Before I knew it, darkness consumed me and I fell into dream land.

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

I woke up to see Zach fast asleep next to me, I was sweating like mad and I felt incredibly nauseous. Picking up my phone, I checked the time
05:45
Just as I was about to lay down again, a bubble opened in my throat and I felt the sick coming up.

Running to the toilet as fast as I could I threw up in the pan, I somehow managed to croak out a Zach before more came through. He ran into the bathroom and held my hair back,
"Woah woah woah woah what's happened?" I continued throwing up until there was nothing left in my system and sat again the wall.
"I'm not sure..." I trailed unknowingly. Yet honestly, I did know what it was, almost exactly.
"Probably something I ate" Zach nodded convinced then went to get ready for the house.

Ushering him out of the bathroom, I brushed my teeth and got dressed. Walking out, pulling my coat on and heading to the pharmacist. I knew what was happening and I didn't quite to how to feel.

Exiting out of the hotel, I felt the cold air or Australia's winter hit my face. The snow falling down ever so effortlessly made everything more beautiful. small boutiques littered the street until I finally made it to our local pharmacy.

Walking in, I headed straight for the section I needed. Strolling up to it, I picked up a couple boxes and went to pay. I nervously got in the que as people started at me. Probably thinking why I picked up such things. Why such a young girl like me had boxes of them. I shifted awkwardly under the states until someone spoke to me.

"I understand how it feels... kinda" A boy around my age came up behind me and started to speak, his sentence most probably gesturing to the pregnancy tests placed in my hand. I laughed and shook my head,
"My sister needed them, I had to come and get them for her. Obviously me being 12 at the time had its wrongs" He said. I chucked at his small story and spoke up,
"So what's your name?" I asked curiously, he smiled at me,
"I'm Jeff. You're Mrs all American I take it?"

I laughed at his joke and nodded,
"Born and raised" I stated
"And I'm Kelsey" I said, reaching my hand out for him to shake.
"Next please" the lady at the till shouted, I quickly shuffled along and paid for my things.

"Here's my number", Jeff said handing me a card,
"If you ever need someone to talk too, I'm here. I smiled at Him and gave him a friendly hug,
"It was nice meeting you" i said,
"You too Kelsey" he smiled.

We both walked our separate ways and that was it. Finally, I got to my hotel to see that Zach wasn't there yet left a note saying he was at the new house and a chauffeur was coming to pick me up at 2.

1:55pm.

I had five minutes. I quickly gathered the last of the things from the hotel and shoved the test in my bag, running downstairs and into the car.
"To Mr. and Mrs. Dempseys Penthouse?" The old man asked. I smiled and laughed at the brand name and nodded,
"To that house please"

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

Soon enough, I was dropped outside of our gorgeous new home, it was beautiful and incredibly high class. Grabbing the boxes from the car, I walked up the stairs and into the living room of our penthouse.

Zach moved the last of the furniture into the living room then went to get a beer,
"Baby do you want some wine" he asked. I shook my head,
"I don't think it will go down too well with my sickness bug" he nodded and sat down, beckoning me over for a cuddle.

I quickly slipped my coat off and sat down with him,
"This place is beautiful" I breathed looking around. He smiled proudly,
"Yeah I know". I got up and connected the Netflix box to the tv and we spent the rest of the night cuddling and watching Madagascar.
