Aidelaide Willows

"Before I tell you the story, I'm just going to tell you that my parents are very religious" I said.

*flashback*

"Mum, dad I need to tell you something" my brother Finn says, while we are at the dinner table eating "I'm gay."

"Get out of my house" my dad yelled  as he slammed his fist on the table ,"I won't except a homosexual in my house even if they were my own blood!"

"Dad calm down! Does it really matter that he has a different sexual orientation than us?" I asked defending my 16 year old brother.

"God will never accept you. How can you do something so inhumane?" Mum yelled, "you're a disgrace."

"Mum, Dad, come on he's still the child you raised it shouldn't matter what gender he is attracted to!" I defended, starting to get upset at their reaction.

"How could you defend such a monster!" Mum yelled.

"Because he's my younger brother! He's still the same person!" I yelled back, almost in tears.

"You're both disgraces!" Dad yelled," I want you both out of my house by 6!"

"But that's in 10 minutes" my brother cried.

"You should have thought of that before you turned into a monster!" Mum yelled.

"Homophobic pigs" I said under my breath as I got up from the table to scramble to grab my belongings.

*flashback ends*

"What happened to your brother after?" Michael asked curiously.

"He went to go stay at his friend's house" I said looking out the window.

"Why didn't you go with him?" He asked.

"They only had room for Finn" I said, "so I decided to spend the rest of my money to go on a bus to New York. Pretty stupid of me."

There was a moment of silence.

"Why are you going to New York" I ask curiously.

"Well I'm going to stay with a couple of friends and have a fresh start" he said " what about you?"

"Same thing except I have no one there" I say shrugging. I had no money for food, no place to stay and barely any clothes.

"If you're broke where do you plan on staying?" He asks.

"I didn't even think about that" I say, "but I guess I'll figure it out."

"You can stay with me" he said , "I know my mates won't mind."

"I don't want to intrude" I say.

"And what would happen if you didn't come with me? Live on the streets? Honey, you do not want to live on the streets" Michael said.

He was right I have no money and no place to stay.

"How do I know you aren't a crazy axe murderer?" I asked raising my eyebrows.

"Why does everyone say that?" He said laughing, "I can actually see the headlines now 'irresistible axe murderer kills pretty innocent girl."

"Fine, I'll come with you until I have enough money to stabilize myself" I laughed.

Maybe when I start over with Michael my life won't be as fucked up.

So now the adventure begins.

I would just like to say Merry Christmas. I hope you have a great holiday and that 'santa' is good to you all ;)
