Chapter 1:
It all started when I was twenty years old.
I had moved in with my new boyfriend, James, and things were going good.
He took care of me and gave me everything I could ever need.
But then, the money stopped coming in, and I was not allowed to work, because he could handle it.
He would go out every night, and not come back till three in the morning, where he would smell like alcohol.
I would never bother him, because I really didn't want to know what he was doing.
Our bills started to pile up, and are cars were both taken.
Over the next couple of days, I found out that I was pregnant.
Both James and I were thrilled, or so I thought.
James had come home like every other night, and I talked to him about the baby.
I didn't exactly know when else to tell him.
He smiled and spoke.
"I'm so happy. I can't wait to be a dad." he said.
I smiled and hugged him, and felt his heart beating really fast.
It was probably because he was happy and afraid of being a first time dad, all in the same feeling.
I let it roll off and got ready for bed.
The months passed, and I was now nine months.
James had said that he had been working double shifts at work, so that we could afford a crib and baby stuff.
It made me happy to know that he was at least trying.
I had not been keeping tabs on our bills, because James said he had taken care of them, and our cars were back, so I didn't ask questions.
I was due the first week of December and it was the last week of November.
The baby could come at any time.
James still had not gotten the crib, or anything for the baby.
I walked over to him and spoke. "James, the baby is due any time now, when are we going to buy the things we need?" I asked.
James smiled. "I'll get them tomorrow." he said.
I smiled. "Thanks James. " I said and went to bed.
In the middle of the night, I was woken up by James.
"Mary, we have to go now, or there's going to be trouble." he said.
I nodded, not knowing why I wasn't asking questions.
It was probably because I didn't know what else to do.
I got dressed and grabbed my backpack.
I didn't really know what to pack, so I packed my toothbrush and some toothpaste, and then I packed a change of clothes, as well as my hair brush and my wallet.
It had twenty dollars in it, along with my license and gift cards that were given to me for my birthday last year.
I had not used them, and was saving them.
I walked out of the room and saw James waiting for me.
"What's going on, where are we going?" I asked. James smiled.
"Don't worry, I just want to get you away from this house, I just got into some trouble, and we need to leave the house." he said.
I sighed. "James, what kind of trouble?" I asked.
James sighed. "I gambled away the money, and then some." he said.
I sighed. "What are we going to do, go on the run?" I asked.
James smiled. "Don't worry, I have a plan.
If we stick to it, we'll be fine." he said.
I nodded and headed to the car.
We drove for about four hours, and then I fell asleep.
When I woke up, I saw a sign that read, 'Welcome to La Push, Washington'. I sighed.
"James, what are we doing in La Push, Washington?" I asked.
James smiled.
"We lived in California, they will never know we are this close. They will think we ran far away." he said. I sighed.
"James, I have to go to the bathroom, is there a rest stop anywhere close?" I asked.
James smiled.
"I'll stop at this gas station." he said.
I nodded and waited as he pulled into the gas station.
"I'll just be a minuet." I said. James nodded.
"Take your time." he said, as he handed me my bag.
I grabbed my bag and headed to the restroom.
When I finished, I came out of the restroom, to find, that James and the car were both gone.
Then it hit me. He had never been on the run.
He had lied to me all along.
He ditched me in the middle of nowhere.
I sighed.
How could I have not seen the signs.
The drinking, gambling, and now this.
Who was I kidding. I felt a strong and hard kick.
I smiled and spoke to my baby.
"Well, baby, I guess we're on our own. He's not worth our time is he?" I said.
As if to answer, my daughter kicked me again. I smiled.
"Ok, lets walk." I said.
I started walking toward the road and then decided against it.
I crossed the street and started to walk into the wood.
I would be safer in the wood, because then, James would never find me again.
I knew if I continued to walk, I would eventually, find a place to start my new life.
I guess La Push, Washington was the first place to start.
