I got the Idea listening to Concrete Angel by Martina McBride. Ima stick with this story, the others just weren't. Enjoy! (Please excuse my cursing, I hate it but I need it for the story!) I don't own anything.
Lacy POV
"You are shit, Lacy! Why do you ever come home from that place you go during the day? Where do you go? Do boys fuck you? You little whore! Slut!" My dad threw the beer bottle at me. It hit its target, my stomach, and fell to the floor, breaking it and covering me in cuts.
I wasn't crying, I didn't cry. I just curled up and sat, waiting for it all to be over. The torture I went through for my mother. She just wasn't…she just wasn't. Mom sat upstairs until he came and hurt her. Then just sat there some more.
My life is shit, and the only thing stopping me from leaving is Gale. Sweet, kind Gale. He was in the same situation as me, but he couldn't hold it together. Except he was only 13, where I was 17. I want to report them all, but I get scared, scared of what could happen. Where will Gale go?
When my torture was over, aka my dad got bored, I ran up the stairs to my room. I didn't want to hear or see what was happening to mom. I had to get out of here. One more month and I can take Gale and run. Run where? I took out my map of the US. We were in Coeur D'Alene in Idaho. Small towns near but far from here.
Washington, Oregon, Seattle, Port Angeles, Forks. Who the hell names a place Forks? I looked it up none the less, and then deleted all my search history after. Forks was a super small town, less than 3000 people. I'll pack tonight and take Gale away. Away to this new life. A life in Forks. They can't find us there. Especially if they don't know that we left until it was too late.
Tonight. I will go and get Gale and we will run away to Forks. I will enroll in high school, and he in middle school. We will be normal. I am going to make sure of that.
Gale was gone. Completely gone! I had gone to his house last night, before I left, to see if he would go with me. He wasn't there. I'd have to come back when I got settled and everything. I had some money saved up that I slowly stole from my dad.
I handed the cabbie a couple twenties and got out, right at the sign that said Welcome to Forks. Yeah, right. A breathe rushed out of my mouth. Walking time.
I walked into town and right into a café as it started to rain. Looking around, I realized this was a pretty popular place, people everywhere. I sat at one of the empty tables and ordered a coffee from a waitress. After paying I looked around and I saw a bulletin board. On it there was a slip of white paper in the center saying: Room to rent. Contact Sue Clearwater at 555-5555.
All I could think of was how to contact her and how to get there. I was moving in with the Clearwater's. Hurrah.
That was all I could think of! Please review and I'll give you yummy cookies! And an appearance from Seth and Leah! Maybe even Paul if you're good…
