So this is my first story, my apologies for all the spelling mistakes I made, I'm Dutch AND blonde AND young so I'm not the best at English! I just really hope you like it since I have no inspiration at all right now! Enjoy :) xx

'I NEVER EVER WANT TO GET BACK HERE!' I yelled when I slammed the door. Another fight with my dad made me go crazy, again... I started to run and I didn't even care where I was going. It was raining and I heard thunder, but it was far away from me. The rain poured on my face, it made me calm down, and after a while I stopped running, and I sat down on the sidewalk, crying. With shaking hands I tried to get my phone out of my pocket to call my best friend Becca.
'Becca, I had another fight with my dad.. I ran away and now I'm sitting here on the sidewalk. Can I please come over?' I asked, still crying.
Becca had one or another strange power to calm me down with her voice. Hearing her voice always made me realize I actually have people who care about me. That's one of the reasons why I always go to her place whenever I'm in a fight.
'Yes of course you can come over Noah! You know you're always welcome! Be here fast okay? It's already dark and I don't want any bad things to happen to you!' she said. She sounded kind of worried.
We ended the conversation and I looked around me. I had no idea where I was, I just ran out of my house into the darkness, without knowing where I was going. I decided to walk down the road, most of the time that made me realize where I was. After a while I was at an intersection. I recognized it immediately, it was the intersection where I always go left when I'm on my way to my school, Penola Catholic College! I took the intersection to the right, because on that way I would end up at Becca's house.
I ringed the doorbell and a few seconds later Becca opened the door. She hugged me tight and invited me in. The big clock on the wall told me it was 11:01 PM. 'Do you want anything to drink? And oh my goodness Noah, aren't you freezing? You're soaking wet! Do you need a towel? Should I get you one? And dry clothes! You need dry clothes!' she rattled. Yes, she was anxious. I could tell by the way her voice sounded. 'Becca, please, calm down! I'm fine! I'm just wet, that's all. I will get myself something to drink, you have to sit down and stop worrying about me!' I laughed. 'Oh, alright then... Are you sure?' she asked. 'Yes I'm sure, just sit down okay?!' 'No, I insist to get you some dry clothes!'
Sometimes she acts like my mother! It's annoying sometimes, but cute at the same time! But I love her, and that's where it is all about!
'Okay okay okay, I'll get something to drink, do you want something either?' I asked while walking towards the kitchen. 'No thanks!' she said. She walked up the stairs to her room.
I got myself something to drink and I sat down in the living room, wondering where her parents were. Becca came back downstairs with grey sweatpants and a dark blue hoodie, gave them to me and said 'Go change your clothes.' I did what she said, and changed my clothes into hers. I walked back to the living room, where Becca sat on the sofa. She patted next to her, and I sat down there. 'Would you like to sleepover?' she asked. 'If that's possible?' I replied. 'Yeah of course, if it wasn't possible I wouldn't ask you!' she laughed. 'Thanks Bec, you're the best!' I said, and I hugged her.
We spent the rest of the night watching horror movies. We both hated that kind of movies, because we are both such a cowards, but together we always watch horror movies and scare eachother, and cover eachothers eyes with pillows, which always ends up into a pillowfight.
'Where are your parents actually?' I asked. I grabbed some crisps out of the bowl on the table. 'Cwoldpway's cwoncert' she said. She just putted some crisps in her mouth so she mumbled a little. I laughed at her stuffed mouth. 'Okay, I bet they won't be home by tonight, will they?' I said, still laughing a bit. Becca shaked her head. 'Nope, they're staying at a hotel in Sydney, the concert is in Sydney, so...' 'Oh yes, I remember you told me about the concert, I just forgot when it was.' 'Oh alright, well, how are things going between you and "you-know-who"?' Becca asked. I punched her arm with my elbow. 'Shut up about him!' I giggled. 'Why!' she said. 'He doesn't like me! He barely knows me and I think he looks right through me like I'm invisible!' I answered. 'Yeah sure... Does he have any idea you love him or what?' Becca asked smiling. I laughed 'What do you think!' and Becca looked at me like I was one or another weirdo. 'You have to tell him..' she said. 'No I can't! Like I said, I'm invisible to him!' I yelled. Tears came up in my eyes by the thought of being invisible to the love of my life. Becca noticed my tears immediately and hugged me. 'Hush it baby, it will be fine! You know I'm close to the boys and I can make them speak their minds, should I give it a try tomorrow in school?' she said. I looked at her with a fake creepy-smile, and she cracked up laughing. I stopped fake smiling and laughed with her. 'But seriously, do you want to do that for me?' I asked after we stopped laughing. 'Yes of course! Anything for you!' Becca replied, still laughing a bit. I hugged her, yawned and said 'I'm tired, I think we should go to sleep..' Becca agreed and we went upstairs to go to sleep. I checked my phone one last time before I shutted it off, and I had 6 missed calls, all from my dad. I shaked my head and shutted my phone off, and I went to sleep.
