Safe in My Arms

Chapter 1

Gabby's POV
"MOM HURRY PLEASE WE NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE NOW!"

They were coming for us, I knew it. We still don't know who they are, but we knew they were coming. I'm rushing my mom so we can get the hell out of here.

"I'm coming sweety, I'm right here. Let's go, quickly!"

We were on our way to the airport, speeding. We booked a flight last night. It's now 5:30 am and our flight is at 7 am. We're from San Antonio, Texas, but since people are after us for no reason, we are moving to New Jersey. I've never been there, but I heard it's a good state. I honestly don't care if I like it or not, as long as we leave San Antonio.

*At the Airport*

"I'm gonna go get our luggage checked in. You can wait over there if you want" my mom said. "I'm not leaving your side." She's crazy if she thinks I'm actually gonna go wait by myself after all of this is happening.

My mom finished checking our luggage and all we had now were our carry-ons. We went through security and all that jazz, then waited at our gate for the plane.

"Flight 425 to New Jersey is ready to be boarded" we heard over the intercom. "Okay honey, lets go." I followed my mom and we waited in line.

I was so anxious to get to New Jersey but I was also nervous. What if they find us? What if they are in line with us? I mean, we don't know what they look like so how would we know if its them or not? All these thoughts ran through my head and sure enough, I was next to scan my boarding pass. I scanned it right after my mom scanned hers, and we boarded the plane.

My mom and I found a seat, and I got the window seat. A man about her age, in their thirtys takes a seat next to my mom.

"Mind if I sit here?" He asks. "Not at all! I was planning on taking a nap anyways" my mom says. I kinda got this weird feeling but shook it off. I saw a woman with a child walk down the aisle and they sat on the other side of the row. They were across from us. She smiled and I smiled back. A few more men walked in and sat behind us. Great. No one my age on the plane, which means it will be harder to make friends when we get to NJ.

*after the flight, in NJ*

We got our luggage from baggage claim and walked outside looking for a taxi. We finally got one's attention and got in. We were going to stay in a hotel until we find an actual house to live in.

I saw the guy who sat next to my mom with the guys who sat behind us on the flight, waiting for a taxi. We left before they got one though.

"Where am I taking you two?" The driver asks. "To the Hilton please" my mom answers. He nods and continues driving.

I look out the windows and admire the beautiful scenery of NJ. I also look behind us and see a taxi with the same guy who sat by my mom on the plane. He sees me looking and waves. I smile quickly then turn around. Weird. We arrive at the Hilton and my mom pays the taxi driver. We get all of our stuff out of the car and start heading to the front desk. We get our room key and all that jazz then head upstairs.

When we get into our room, I jump onto the bed and lay there for a second. I look at my mom and she looks as if she's about to cry. "Mom what's wrong?" I ask quickly. "I'm just happy we got out of there. I'm happy we're safe, and I'm happy you're safe. I love you my sweet girl" my mom says. I get up and hug her tight. I let go and I didn't realize I was crying until she wiped away my tear with her thumb. "Lets go to bed yeah?" She asks and I nod.

We get ready for bed and before I know it, sleep takes over my body. I hope New Jersey will be different.
