Falling For The One

Chapter One

I couldn't stand living at home anymore. My mom and I were always fighting. It was to the point I couldn't stand being around her. She is one of those people that got around. You could say she liked her men. My dad on the other hand, I never saw him. I barley heard or talked to him. My parents were drifting away from me. I am an only child.

I decided to run away. Where exactly? I wasn't sure, I was just going to go. I decided going out of the country so no one could find me. I didn't tell anyone I was leaving. Not even my best friend, Sami. I grabbed my luggage and called a taxi to take me to the airport.

Sami has been my best friend since we were in diapers. She knew everything about me, and I her. She was very pretty with her shoulder length hair. Which sometimes was highlighted purple. I loved that about her. She didn't care what people thought of her. She is like my sister. We fight but always make up a minute later. We act like complete idiots when we are together.

I had about an hour drive so I decided to check Twitter. I saw I had a new mention. It was from Sami. She wanted to know where I was. I didn't reply to her text messages and she knows I'm always on Twitter. I didn't reply to her tweet. I felt bad but I couldn't tell her. I know how much it would hurt her.

I arrived at the airport and went to claim my ticket. My flight wasn't for another two hours.

"Just great" I mumbled to myself.

To kill sometime I went to the mini food court and got something to eat. Since I haven't had anything all day. After I ate, I checked my phone. I had 15 minutes before my flight left. I went to the restroom and got on the plane.

I decided to go to London. I've never been there before and it couldn't be a better place to get away. I got out my laptop to search for recommended hotels. When I found one I liked I booked myself a room for a few days. I also looked up fun things to do. After searching, I got on Twitter again to see if anything interesting was happening. I saw I had a DM. It was from Sami.

"Where did you go? And why aren't you answering my texts? I'm worried about you. Call me ASAP."

I replied "I can't call you at the moment. Everything is fine."

I put my laptop away and looked out the window. Before I knew it I was fast asleep.
