I'll follow you into the dark❤️

Eight

!!Several months later!!

Trixie's POV

It's the last day of school. Thank god. We leave for Paris tonight. Both me and katya haven't told our parents yet. We both are just gonna leave and leave a note. I mean that's prob a really bad thing to do, but both me and katya are 18 now and driving. We are now Legal adults. Right after school we are gonna get our passports and luggage. We have to be at the airport at 10 pm. As our flight leaves at 12:30
Am. I get pulled out of my thought by my history teacher yelling at me.

"BEATRICE MATTEL ITS THE LAST DAY CANT YOU JUST PAY ATTENTION FOR TWO SECONDS."

Of course since I'm im dating katya I literally became such a smart ass. Well in a good way

"Oh I'm sorry I forgot that we are still learning stuff on the LAST day of highschool"

The whole class started laughing. Just after that the bell rang and then the rest of the school day went fast. Graduation was yesterday and this all feels bittersweet. Katya and I are standing in the hallway with a stack of papers. Ready to run out and throw. The final bell rings and katya grabs my hand and we run out. We run down the steps and across the grass. Everyone is throwing papers. Finally katya stops and we both throw our papers up in the air. She pulls me into a kiss and all the papers fall around us.

"We did it baby."
"Yes Kat, we did"

I kiss her again and then we walk to the car. She opens the door for me and I get in. She shortly follows. We pull out of the parking lot and head to the passport place and then to get our new luggage.

"Dammit Trix my eyes are closed!"
"Oh my god ahaha"
"Oh shush lemme see your picture?"
"Okay."
"Oh look perfect as always!"
"Stop it Kat I love you."

We didn't look at our passports until we got home. We were now on the floor packing my clothes. Then we were gonna head over to katyas. Then head over and get dinner then go to the airport. I look up and the clock says 5:45.

"HOLY SHOT KAT HAVE I REALLY BEEN PACKING FOR 2 HOURS??"
"Yea babe but it's ok bc we have been talking."
"YOUR NOT GONNA HAVE ENOUGH TIME"
"Yea I will baby take your time."

I throw the last of my stuff into my suitcase and hurry to write the note.

"Hey mom. It's trixie. Since I'm 18 I have decided to go on a trip. I will be home in 2 months. I'm in Paris with katya. You can't be mad because I'm an adult now. Love you! Mean it!"

We then run out and head over to katyas. When we get inside her dad is still home.

"Dad what are you doing here?"
"Miss Yekaterina petrovna Zamolodchikova where have you been?"
"I was at trixie's"
"You were supposed to get your brother off the bus! He could have gotten lost!"
"Dad he is in 8th grade and has walked home for the past two years."
"So?"
"Dad he doesn't take the bus?"
"Yes he does! You also have to take him to basket ball!!"
"Dad are you ok? He doesn't play basket ball."

I go to close the door and I look out and I see the front of his car is all smashed in.

"Kat come here. Look"

She looks out and gasps.

"Do you think he hit his head?"
"Maybe."
"Lemme call my step mom."

We head up to katyas room and she gets on th phone.

After the call she tells me her stepmom is on the way.

"Do you wanna stay here with your dad? I woul—"
"No Trix it's fine"
"No really Kat I would understand..."
"No Trix I'm going.
"I can cancel."
"NO TRIX IM GOING! I HAVE BEEN STUCK WITH THESE INDECENT, HOMOPHOBIC HUMANS FOR MY WHOLE LIFE I CANT DO THIS ANYMORE TRIX."

She starts crying and collapse into my arms I grab her and rub her back.

"I'm sorry Trix but I really need to get away for a few. I really wanna travel the world with the love of my life."
"Ok katya."

I kiss her head and she gets up and packs. It's 9:00 and we leave. The airport is about an hour away so we start driving. Katya had a bit of anxiety so I drove. The whole way we rocked out to a bunch of songs like "Lola" and "Waterloo" katya and I have listened to Waterloo ever since we were little. We always loved that song. We were halfway to the airport and I saw katya was getting nervous. Since I was driving I couldn't hug her, so I started singing. That always seemed to calm her down.

"Love of mine, someday you will die. But I'll be close behind. I'll follow you into the dark."

As I sang on I could see her calming down. I pulled into the parking garage and we got out of the car.

We got through security and tsa very quick. By this time it was 11:30. I went to a Starbucks in the airport and got us coffee. By the time I got back it was time to board. We walked to the gate hand and hand. We handed the girl our ticket then walked on. As we were about to get on the plane I look at katya,

"Ready"
"Yes babe"
