Little Girl .

Two

I waited until everyone was sleep, bags packed I grabbed my favorite stuffed animal her name is pinky.. smiling at my stuffie i kissed her forehead and looked around my room. I quickly but quietly walked out my room and down the stairs, I grabbed my mother keys and left out the front doors. Unlocking the car, I placed my bags in the back and Pinky in the passenger seat making sure she had a seat belt on. Once i was settled in i started the car, the front door flew open

"GEMMA WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!"

My eyes widen and I quickly put the car in reverse and backed out the drive way,

"GEMMA STOP RIGHT NOW!"

I watched her run towards the car, tears fell from my eyes as i looked at her face one last time remembering the times when she actually cared about me, treated me like I was the BEST thing that ever happened to her.. but that was all gone, now i mean nothing to her.. I put the car in drive and took off down the street.

I gripped the wheel tightly crying historically, I tried to calm down it was blurry and i couldn't see through my tears. Using the back of my hand i whipped my tears away, as i looked over at Pinky.

"We're finally free."

I've been driving for some time now, not knowing where i'm going or where to go. I was hungry and had no money, i pulled over on the side of the road and leaned back grabbing Pinky and held her closely.. rubbing her soft fur my eyes begin to shut as i yawn.

maybe a few mins later there was a loud beep sound which caused me to jump and look around, I saw a car parked behind mine it wasn't a police car maybe a honda? i'm not sure i don't know cars well.

a man got out, dressed in a suit like he was on the way to a very important meeting. I gulped as he made his way to my car, I held Pinky closer as i turned the car on to roll my window down slowly.

"Are you okay?" the man asked looking me over.

I nodded.

"Why are you sleeping on the side of the road?" He looked in the back of the car seeing my bag of clothes.. "going on a road trip?"

once again i nodded.

He bit his lip at me, looking around.

"i'm Maxwell, what's your name?"

i looked down at Pinky then back at him, he was handsome.. it kinda made me nervous at how he confidently stared into my eyes. I blushed and looked away.

"G-Gemma" my voice cracked from all the crying i have been doing

"Nice to meet you Gemma," He said smiling, "Where are you heading?"

I looked ahead of me, "Oh um.. I was just.."

I couldn't seem to get my words together, if you can't tell lying isn't my strong suit.

"Mhm I see" He stood up straight.

"W-well I kinda.. um" Come on Gemma get it together.." I-I ran away"

He looked at me, "How come?"

I shrugged, feeling like i've spoken to much already.

He nodded, "Well i hope you have a safe trip to where ever it is your going, here"

He pulled out four one hundred dollar bills, my eyes widen and i shook my head.

"oh n-no i couldn't take your money"

"no? well how about i buy you lunch then. looks like you could eat"

i bit my lip thinking about his offer before nodding, I got out the car and reached in the back grabbing my bag.
