Runaway Love (Tyde Levi Fanfiction)

CHAPTER TWO - THE ESCAPE

I tossed and turned. I had been doing so for the past 3 hours. 'No one likes you' they say 'you're not important' they say. Is this all they have to say? I know all these things already. It's all I think about and all I'm ever told. 'Shut up! shut up! shut up!' I yell, covering my ears trying to block out the noise. That's it. I can't take it anymore. I need to leave this place. Now.

Making my way to the wardrobe, I can't help but think about the satisfaction of being in a new place. Away from all of the scumbags in this horrid place. Getting out my suitcase, I start to pack everything without a worry. Clothes, toiletries, my chargers and electronics. In it goes. Kneeling down, I remember the large shoe box I had been saving money in for the past four years. Opening the largest draw on my desk, the large shoe box I had been putting loose change in for the past 4 years became visible enough to make out it was in fact the money box. As I begun to rummage through the loose paper, the rectangle shaped treasure was now in the clearing and available to pick up. I always kept a notebook with it; making sure to keep track of how much money was in there. Let's hope I have enough money.. $2,567.55. Just enough money to get us through until we find a way to earn some money. Picking up the box, I carefully place it into my now overflowing suitcase.

'Well. It looks like its time to go.' I tell myself. No one will miss me. I mean I only have one friend, and my mother hates me. I'll be fine on my own. I'll survive. I just need to get out of here. I start to receive a skype call. As it rings, producing a reasonably loud sound along with it, I quickly run over to my phone quickly before my mother hears and wakes up. Checking the caller ID, Dahlia Rose flashes on the screen. I answer greeted by her Profile Picture on Skype. 'Hello? Is everything okay?' I ask, the tone of a worried friend quite strong and noticeable. 'I could ask you the same thing! Whys your light on? Why are you up?' Dahlia asked with worry ringing in her voice. I sigh 'everything's okay. I just need to get out of here. I can't take if anymore..I'm packing some things and getting the hell out of here. Don't know where, but I don't care where. I just need to get away. ' the words ringing in my head as I choke on every few words. 'Im not letting you leave alone. I'm coming with you. We've always planned to run away. It just looks like we'll be going earlier than we planned. I'll meet you at your drive way in 10 minutes okay?' Dahlia whispers, being sure not to wake her parents. 'Okay..I'm going to have to steal my mums licence..what if she calls the police and reports me for stealing the car and ID?' 'Dude they won't even notice it's stolen! I mean you and your mum are literally like twins in the sense of looks! Just try not to make to much sound when you're getting the licence and the keys' sadly what she says is true. Of course looking like my mother has benefits; but with benefits come disadvantages. Every time I look in the mirror I see her. My horrid, abusive "mother" I cringe at the thought of her.. 'I won't.. I'll see you soon'

I end the call and continue packing. It only took me 5 minutes to finish packing, giving me enough time to change into some decent clothes. I only put on a pair of comfortable trousers, a loose fitting Nirvana tee and a pair of sneakers; I'm only going to be in a car so it doesn't matter. Ugh mums licence! I walk quietly into my mothers room, looking everywhere for her wallet with her licence in it. Where the hell is it?! 'shuuuuughhhhahh' a deep, raspy growling sound echoed the room, resulting in me tripping over my own feet and smashing my head on the floor. Oh no..she's going to wake up isn't she..I'm not going to move. Hopefully she won't see me. I think to my self as I lay in a plank like position of horror. Ive been laying here for 2 minutes. I highly doubt she'll wake up. I should leave before I do something else that'll end up waking her up. With that in mind, I make my way downstairs to get my bag and leave.

The keys! I can see the keys sitting with my mums purse on the table next to the door. Thank god the keys are literally right next to door. I am an emotional wreck right now! I really hope that my mums licence is in her purse because I am in no way possible going back into her room and getting it. A feeling of relief washed over my body once I noticed my mothers licence in her purse. Slipping the licence out of the plastic pocket in my mums purse and getting the keys was quite a stress-reliever in all honesty. My phone! It's still in the rice I put it in earlier..I think to myself as I reach the door. I quietly run back into my room, retrieving my phone. 'I hope this works' I mumble to myself as I switch on my phone. To my surprise it turns on! I punched in the passcode and send a text to Dahlia:

Me: Dude you ready?

I continue making my way out to the car; reaching the car, I unlock it and put my suitcase in the boot. I can't see Dahlia anywhere! Where could she be..I think. A moment later my phone went off.

Dahlia: Yeah I just have to put on some shoes. Shouldn't be more than 5 minutes :)

Me: ugh, okay. Hurry up. I have a feeling my mum will be here soon and I don't wanna risk anything..

I lock my phone and put it back in my pocket as I impatiently wait for Ms Dahlia to tend to her ever so important 'needs'. Moments later, a sleepy Dahlia had made it to the car. I unlocked the boot, slowly putting her suitcase in. 'You ready?' I whisper, looking toward her. 'Of course' Dahlia replies, seating herself in the front passenger seat. I put the key in the ignition. 'Once I turn the key, our lives will be changed forever. We are starting over. The thought of leaving this place is..*sigh* great but..I mean..I'm going to miss it even though this place haunts me. It is my home..' I mumble, obviously loud enough to hear briefly. 'What was that?' Dahlia asks, completely oblivious to what I had just mentioned. 'Oh..nothing. So you ready to hit the road?' 'Yes! Let's leave this hell hole'

That night we set off to venture Australia. We didn't know where we were going. But what we did

know is that it's away from here. Surely it'll be better for our mental and physical well being.
