Author's Note: I haven't fixed the grammar mistakes, but I'll get to it.

We got inside and he stopped smile as he was driving. When I looked at him he smiled but when he thought I was looking outside he looked so sad.

“Ash do you really want to do this?” I asked him.

“Yeah, I really do.” I could tell he got excited and anxious. Maybe it was just me being nervous thinking he didn’t want to do this. My gut told me he’s not it, but then it said get to the church. I was so confused; I didn’t know what to do. We were in a small town, and in front of a brick building that looked like a fancy bank. My great Aunt came out and   pulled me out of the car eagerly.

“We will see you on the other side” My Aunt said and she pulled me into the church. We went  into up marbled stairs, and walked down a hallway. A lot of men and woman walked out of a room in suits with brief cases. Then I realized I’m getting illegally married. I started to freak out because I wanted to just be able to leave if we got married at a church, but know I’m going to have to pay money to leave him when the time came. I walked into a room with a giant table. On the table were thousands of dresses, and she showed me all of them. I picked a simple dress. It was very opened in the back and the skirt had an awesome flow to it; It also was straight and kind of had a train. She had me sit down and put up my hair. Into this messy but beautiful bun. I started getting very nervous, but I kept on take big breaths. She put makeup on, and left the room to go sit down.

I looked at myself, and got cold feet. I rubbed the makeup off; I closed my eyes and lied my head down. I was playing my guitar, and this white glowing light was sitting next to me. Then I looked out the window and say the wolf turn into the bright light. I set my guitar down and walked outside. The light held out his hand and I grabbed it. It started to slow dance with me and said, “Put trust in me, and I shall get you out of this. But first I need you to two some people before I let you marry the person God wants you to be with.”

I nodded and ended up in the room again. I sat up and walked outside of the room. I was looking for Ash but couldn’t find him. I couldn’t find any one, and I desided to leave. I grabbed money out of my aunt’s purse and put a note inside.

I am going to follow the whole spirit and he wants me to meet some people before I go. Did Ash tell you what Ace did to me? He hurt me physically. I love you so dearly. Thank you for giving me a place to stay and a family to love, but God is leading me to go.

Sincerely yours, Ever

P.S. Ash, I love you….and I love that you cared for me so greatly. You are my hero, a guardian angel, I say this because you saved me from death. Make something out of this life, and keep saving people’s lives it’s a gift God gave you.

 love always, Ever

I run out of the building, and found a bus to take. I didn’t know where God wanted me to go, but he was leading me to Florida. I kept praying and praying.

“Ever” A man said and I looked up at him confused, “I know I’m some random stranger, but I believe God wants you to go to a star bucks café.”

The man walked to the back of the train and disappeared. I thought about ti deeply. From Toronto, Canada to West Seneca, New York. The from their I got a rental car and drove from West Seneca, New York to Clearwater, Florida. Which all to gather is 22 hours. I’ve only gone 12 hours. My Aunt tried calling and so did Ash. They stopped after five hours, and now it’s me and the radio. I jammed out to Long Way Home – Steven Curtis Chapman. After that I listened to House of Their Dreams – Casting Crowns. My phone started to ring when I turned off the radio to just have silence outside of my head.
