The Unknown DiLaurentis

Home sweet home

•The next day•

~Chloe~

I felt someone shaking me, waking me up from my beauty sleep. "Miss, we're here." I heard a man's voice. It took my vision a few second to figure out where I was and how I got here. I groaned and slowly sat up and looked around and saw I was in a bus.

Then I remember all what happened last night, Courtney hit me, which by the way, gave me a black eye. That and I'm still trying to hide with my hair. While Alison shoved me so hard, I skinned my hands and it tore up my jeans by the way. So now I have dry, rocky hands because of her, worst of all. I don't have lotion, because how fast I left the house. Then after everything I ran to the bus station and got a ticket to Charleston.

I looked up where the sound came from and saw the bus driver. "Oh we have?" I looked out the window, and saw it daytime and we won't moving. "Sorry sir."

He smiled, "It's fine, have a nice day ma'am."

I quickly stood up from my seat, and started to go down aisle, "You too." Once I got off the bus, I smelled the fresh air. This was home. I smiled and somehow waved down a taxi.

"Where to?" The driver asked me.

"Summerville please."

He nodded and started to drive towards my hometown. Where my sisters couldn't hurt me.

~Alison~

Courtney and I were in the kitchen eating breakfast while our parents still didn't know that Chloe wasn't missing. After we got home last night, we all passed out. Except for Jason, he stopped by the store and got another box of beer. He drank the whole box before he even got home. Courtney and Jason probably wouldn't even be alive, if he had continuing driving. Lucky Courtney knew how to drive and drove the two home.

Then we heard our parents footstep leave Courtney/Chloe's room. They came into the kitchen and looked at both of us. "Do you guys know where Chloe is at? She's not in her bed." Dad asked.

Courtney was the first to speak up, "I don't remember her getting into bed last night, maybe she ran off." She suggested. She sounded calm, but I knew she was freaking out in the inside. Courtney knew if they found out she hit Chloe, she'll be hauled off to Radley again.

Mom shook her head, "No, I don't think she would run away... Unless she has a reason to run away." Our mother raise an eyebrow at us and her arms were crossed. Which was not a good sign at all. "What happened last night? I heard a lot of commotion downstairs when I went to bed."

I looked over at Courtney then at our parents. I just couldn't hold it in any longer. I wanted my sister back and the only way was by telling them. "She's in South Carolina!" I blurted out. For all I knew, I thought Courtney would be the first to break, not me.

"Alison!" Courtney snapped.

Our parents eyes widened, "She's where?!"

I sighed, "She ran away yesterday, because I shoved her. She went to the bus station and got a ticket to Charleston." I answered.

I heard my mom sighed, "And now we have no clue where the hell she could be at now. Why couldn't you tell me this last night, Alison?" She snapped.

"She's not the only reason why Chloe left." Courtney whispered.

"Excuse me?" Our mother hissed.

"I slapped her." Court answered.

"You what!" Dad screamed. "Courtney, we did not take you out of Radley for you to hit your little sister!" He continued.
