Destin, Florida - Time: 10:32 AM
On the very streets of Destin, Flordia held multiple people running on the sidewalks, cars on the streets, and people playing at the beach with their friends, family, lovers, and so forth. But one person in particular was walking through the streets, revealing to be a young seventeen year old boy that has brownish hair, and green eyes, along with wearing a black hoodie, blue jeans, and boots as he walked toward a bus stop and sat on one of the benches, and was the only one to be on it.
"Man... Won't my dad be pissed... Then again, when ISN'T he?" He asked himself until a girl suddenly walked up to and sat down next to him, with him seeing she had black hair and blue eyes while she wore a black shirt, skirt and boots as well, with her seeing the boy back and smiling.
"Hi!" She said while he looked at her more.
"Uh... Hi." He said as she looked at him more.
"Oh wow! You actually responded to me! Nobody has really said hi back to be before!" She said while laughing a bit. "Especially if you're probably the same age as me! What's your name?" She stared at him more with her blue eyes glistening in the sunlight, with the boy looking more.
"...Ethan. My name's Ethan." Ethan said to her as she smiled more.
"It's nice to meet you Ethan! I'm Emmy!" Emmy said while scooting closer to him. "How old are you?"
"...Depends. How old are YOU?" Ethan asked as she began to count with her fingers a bit, trying to calculate it until she stopped along with her smile fading away.
"I'm... I guess... Sixteen? I don't really know to be honest..." Emmy said as Ethan looked at her more.
"You don't know how old you are? How do you now know that?" He asked as he looked at her more until he found an unnatural feature about her; Having a small and faint, but visible scar on her cheek.
"Well... I'm, and I know it's a bit cliche if you think about it, an orphan." Emmy said while looking down. "I don't really have any parents at all... So I've kinda been on my own for the most part and I've been living with... some people."
"Some people huh?" Ethan said as he straightened himself up a bit.
"Y-Yeah! Some... people. They're good at heart, I know it." Emmy said as Ethan stared at her scar more, catching her attention in which she hid it from him.
"Really? Then explain that scar to me." Ethan said as Emmy looked at him in surprise, but gave in.
"They... Well I have to pay rent to stay there and... If I don't they beat me." She said while looking away a bit. "I don't really have anywhere to go, or to live other than that." She looked at him again and saw an unusual feature on Ethan; a faint scar on his chin. "W-What about you? You have a scar yourself." Hearing it made Ethan looked at her in surprise back, but nodded slowly.
"Alright... seems fair I guess." He said as he rose the sleeve on his hoodie a bit and showed Emmy a few faint burn marks on it, making her wince a bit. "I live in a home with my abusive father; Gerald. His mind was... never in the right place even after my mom gave birth to me and... from what my mom said he... was worse than he was before."
"Really? What happened?" Emmy asked as Ethan sighed a bit.
"He became... really violent and abusive... My mom becoming pregnant with me was on accident since he always... raped her." He said as Emmy stared in horror. "He forced her into marriage and wanted to keep her as his own personal sex slave. It wasn't until she ended up pregnant with my little sister and escaped from him with me and her. My mom thought that... we would be safe and he wouldn't hurt us... Didn't turn out like that."
"I-It didn't?" Emmy asked in horror.
"No... My dad found us eight years later and when he found out about my little sister Lizzy... He... killed her..." Ethan said as Emmy stared in shock. "My dad always wanted sons... and not daughters... So he just... killed her and my mom... Now I'm stuck with him, with no way out."
"Oh my god... That's horrible." Emmy said sadly while he put her hand on top of this. "I-I'm so sorry... I-I had no idea."
"Hey, it's alright. You didn't know until now." Ethan said as they both looked at each other in the eyes. "So I guess we both have it bad."
"Yeah... I guess." Emmy said until an idea popped into her head and smiled. "I have an idea! What about the both of us getting away from here!"
"W-What?" Ethan asked in shock. "B-But we barely know each other and-"
"But you're my friend though!" Emmy said as she jumped up and grabbed Ethan's hands so he could make him get up. "If we work together, we can get out of here and... Live together as friends or something like that! I think I have a friend of mine at Atlanta Georgia! We could go there!"
"Emmy, I don't think you-" Ethan tried to say until Emmy looked at him more with bright eyes.
"Promise me! Pleeeease?" Emmy asked as he eyes became wide a bit, with Ethan staring back a bit until he sighed in defeat.
"Alright... I promise." Ethan said in which that response made Emmy jump up happily while laughing until she hugged him around the neck.
"Yay! Thank you Ethan!" Emmy said happily. "Do you want to try to get there tomorrow?"
"T-Tomorrow? B-But we don-" Ethan said until Emmy pulled out a credit card out of nowhere. "...How in the did you get that?"
"...I dunno!" Emmy said while giggling a bit, to which made Ethan smile a bit.
"Alright, Alright. We'll go tomorrow. I just need to pack my things until then though. So yeah, meet here at... Six?" He asked.
"Yes! Sure!" Emmy said until she took out a piece of paper, wrote on it and gave it to Ethan, showing it was her phone number while she smiled. "See you then Ethan!" She was about to skip away until she quickly stopped, walked back to Ethan and hugged him around the neck again. "And... Ethan? You're... the nicest person I've ever met... I like that about you." She quickly kissed his cheek and skipped off, leaving Ethan behind as he just stared at her in the distance and covered his cheek to where she kissed him in complete shock, but it melted into a smile while he sat down.
"Heh... Wow..." He said to himself while a shadow watched him a bit, for he heard all about what he was planning and walked away while Ethan waited more on the benches for the bus.
