Tears were blurring my vision. The road was dark ahead and it glistened from the recent rain. My headlights made the gravel road shine and the night sky twinkled with stars as I zoomed by.
A flashback kept replaying in my mind.
We were sitting on the tailgate of his pick up truck. The sun was setting and the sight was breath-taking. All the different colors, purple, orange, red; it was like a painting. To beautiful to be real or at least to beautiful to be part of this place.
I took a deep breath. I would have to tell him sooner or later.
"I'm leaving, Mike." I said, not taking my eyes off of the sunset. It was getting lower and lower.
He looked at me. "I'll go with you then." He said simply. He smiled at me and I couldn't help but smile back.
"Okay." I don't know why I told me that he could come. I loved him, but the whole reason I was leaving was to get away from everything. I wanted to get away from this town, the people, my mom and step dad, and Mike. I needed a new start away from all of this.
We sat there until the sun was traded for the moon. We watched as the first stars appeared and then we left. Mike went to his house and I told him I'd pick him up in the morning. I lied though.
The next morning I woke up at four. I had already packed all the stuff I would need and everything was in the car. I got ready and took one last look at the house that I had lived in for so long. I thought about all the things that have happened here and, though I would miss it, I was glad to be going.
I didn't wake my mom to say goodbye, I just got in my car and drove away. I stopped in front of Mike's house. I just stared into the window. I knew behind the curtain Mike would be sound asleep in his bed. A bag was probably packed by his door and his alarm was probably set for eight.
"Goodbye, Mikey." I'd miss him, but I needed to start new and I don't think I could do that with him.
I took one last look and drove away for good. I would go back to the last place I ever thought I'd end up and we would be happy.
That was seven days ago and now I was hundreds of miles away now. My mom had called at around eleven that first night when she realized that I wasn't coming home any time soon. She was upset and pretty mad, but I didn't care. I called my dad about two days after I left and he was giddy with excitement to have his daughter and grandson live with him. Mike had called a bunch of times, but I just couldn't bring my self to answer his calls.
I blinked away more tears.
I looked into the review mirror. My heart and soul slept soundly in the backseat. Parker was my son and my life. He was my only reason to keep going. I was leaving for him. So he could have a good life where he wouldn't be judged because not only, was he born from wedlock, but his mom was sixteen when she had him. That was just not how you did things in Florida.
I made a stupid mistake when I was fifteen, but it gave me the greatest gift I could ever ask for. Sometimes I wonder if I'd never went to that football game and Mike had never scored that last touchdown if I would still have Parker.
The sun was starting to rise and I was getting hungry. I looked in the rear view mirror again and Parker was starting to stir. I figured he would be up by the time I found someplace to eat so I pulled off the highway in search of a diner.
"Momma," Parker said groggily.
"Hey, baby. Are you hungry, sweetie?"
"Yeah," he smiled up at me into the mirror.
"Alright, Momma will find somewhere to eat."
I looked out as I drove in search of someplace that was open this early and I did. It was a small diner and I could see that there was only one waitress and one person in there. I pulled off the road and parked in front of the café. I got out and grabbed my purse and the diaper bag before I unbuckled Parker so he could climb out. He liked doing stuff like that on his own. It made him feel like a big boy.
We walked into the diner and took a seat at a little round booth in the corner. Parker sat on his knees and I pulled out some blocks for him to play with. We played for a while and then the waitress came over with a menu.
She was an old lady and not the sweet grandma kind, the grumpy mean kind. She dropped the menu on the table and I read her nametag. Beverly was her name.
"What can I get you to drink?" She asked sleepily.
"Can I get a kid's apple juice and a coffee, please?" I asked politely.
"Sure, are you ready to order?"
"Um, yeah. I'll have the special and he'll have the smiley pancakes." Well she was a talker. She left to get our drinks and when she came back, she simply set them on the counter and left.
Parker and I played some more until Beverly came back with our food. We ate and then I paid the bill and then Parker and I were on the road again. I knew that we would be at my Dad's house at around 3 or 4 so I was kind of jittery with anxiety.
Only eleven hours later I was pulling into the town limits of Forks, Washington. I flew buy the green of the forest and as more and more houses came into view, started to go faster. Ten minutes later I was pulling up the driveway to my dad's house. I honked the horn a couple of times to let my dad know that I was here.
As I was getting out of the car, my dad came running out of the house. He gave me a big hug. He usually wasn't like this. He wasn't the kind of guy that showed his emotions like this. I guess he was really excited to see us.
"Oh, Bella, I missed you so much. I'm so glad you decided to come." He pulled away to look at me. "You're all grown up," he looked over my shoulder. "Is that my grandson?"
Charlie let go of me and went to open Parker's door. He unbuckled Parker and pulled him out.
"Grampop!" Parker screeched as he hugged Charlie.
"Well come inside, I'll make some fried eggs and bacon."
