OPERATION: RUNAWAY

Chapter TWO

Like he promised the kind driver dropped me off at a police station. I didn't go in, in fear that my mom would've tracked me down.

I'm surprised they still haven't found me, Success

"Now to find Ana" I say to myself walking down the street, getting weird stares from strangers. Have they never seen a muddy person walking around before?

She told me she'd wait for me at the white fountain in the middle of the city. I really hope this isn't a big city.

After asking random people where a white fountain might be located in this city, I finally made it there.

Finding a certain red head scrolling through her phone. "ANA" I screamed catching her attention and she snaps to look at me with a big fat smile.

Ana was a online friend of mine who knew everything of my current situation and was willing to help me.

"You look like you just had a tug-of-war with mother nature and lost." She said looking at my current state "Let me take you home so you can change out of your filthy clothes and have a nice shower."

"Thats the first thing you say to me" I pout and flicks my cheeks before walking away, stopping and looking back to see if i was following. I obviously was not and she gave me a look and I immediately swallowed my spit and chased after her.

After a nice shower and a set of new clothes, I made camp on Ana's bedroom floor. Waking up the next morning refreshed, before everything I'd done the previous day came tumbling down on me and I instantly went stiff.

Taking another shower I changed into a long sleeve tight black shirt and a black plaid skirt. Ana had nice taste in clothes.

I was about to head downstairs when I heard a familiar female voice. "My daughter is missing and you were the last person she contacted"

Mom? she's here? I knew this was a bad idea.

"Ma'am yes maybe i was the last person she contacted but that doesn't mean I knew of her whereabouts" Ana replied emotionless. Thank you Ana I love you!

"Than you wouldn't mind us looking around your house?" Holding my breath I hide in her closet. 

"You won't find anything here." And I was thankful I cleaned the area i was sleeping and this room looked as though no one but Ana stepped in here.

I hear footsteps approaching the door and I could feel my heart hammering in my chest. "Search everything, Mason, I'll look at the other room"

At the sound of his name I remembered the last thing he'd said to me yesterday, If you're not back by then I'll chase you down.

He's here, He's probably furious.

I hear grunting and the sound of bed being moved around, the door of the bathroom being opened and soon shut. then I hear it the sound of footsteps coming closer

Don't open it please

but my pleas were ignored and the door of the closet was slid open and I made eye contact with a pair of familiar green eyes.

I smile sheepishly at him but immediately drop it when i see the expression on his face. he looked... disappointed. That i didn't keep my promise? That I ran away? 

I clasp my hands together and plead with my eyes. pretend you didn't see me, turn around.

He must've saw the message behind my eyes since he turned away and closed the closet door. 

I heard his footsteps as he moves farther and farther away until the whole room is coated in silence.

"We're leaving, But if we learn that you were hiding her we'll make you're life a living hell" My mother threatened before the sound of a door slamming shook the house.

I sat there unsure if it was safe to come out and I was started shaking when the door of the closet slid open again but instead of seeing my mother or her men, I saw a worried Ana.

"Are you okay?" she asked helping me out and I nodded my head in response before grabbing the clothes from yesterday that i cleaned. "What are you doing?"

"Leaving" I replied it was one word but the expression on Ana's face changed.

"Don't worry about your mom, I can handle her." She says making me crack a smile. "They didn't find you today and they'll never find you again"

"Actually.. I was found" I corrected and she gave me a look of confusion asking me to go on "Mason found me, but he pretended he didn't."

"Whoever Mason is, He sounds like an angel" Ana claps her hand sighing in relif

"I feel guilty, I lied to him, broke our promises but he still placed himself in a dangerous situation for me. If mom ever figures out that he knew where i was and didn't tell her I fear for what she'd do to him" I rant and ana hugs me quieting me down "And you, ana. because of me you'll probably be watched by my mothers men. I'm a curse"

"No you're not, Khloe. You're a blessing. Don't worry I can handle myself" She whispers in my hair.

"No I can't do it, If anything happened to you I'd feel guilty. I'm leaving thanks for everything Anastasia" I address by her full name and she notices how serious I am of this desicion.

"Ok Here take this gym bag, it has 3 weeks worth of clothing. And here's $3,000 spend it wisely " Ana finally says before hugging me more tightly and hand me things i needed
