Something shook me awake. When I opened my eyes I saw Fang staring down at me. "Hey." I said in a tired voice. He smiled and brushed a strand of my long blond hair out of my face. My hair had kept getting longer. I started to feel smart that I had packed my hair brush when we left Anne's house. Fang leaned down and kissed me softly. I smiled against his lips and then reacted to his kiss. He angled his head so that he could kiss me better.
" We need to get out of here. The kids are getting ansy staying in one place for so long." Fang said.
" We've only been here 3 days. Or is it jus that you want to leave and go back to the beach. I know it's beautiful, but that's some where we've already been, and if the erasers know where it is they would probably find us. So if we leave we would have to go some place else." I told him. He just smiled and nodded. I looked around at our mountain home. It was a wonderful spot, but Fang was right as usual. We had stayed in that cave for too long. Just then my little Angel skipped in. She jumped up and in to Fang's arms. He swung her around in a circle over his head.
"Max are we gonna move again? 'Cause if we do I want to go and live in a real house!" Angel exclaimed.
" Ange. If we could afford to live in a real house then we would have bought one a long time ago." Fang said in a kind voice. I looked up at him in surprise. Sure we had the card Jeb had given me, but as far as we knew it only had 200 dollars. It had been seven years since we had run away from Anne's. Iggy, Fang, and I are 21, Nudge is 18, Gazzy is 15 and Angel is 13. Nudge and Iggy have been a couple for 3 years now. Outside I could hear Nudge and Iggy talking. They were discussing where they would want to live if we moved again.
" I think we should go to Canada. Sure it would be cold but the Erasers wouldn't ever think to look for us there!" Iggy has always wanted to go to Canada. He had heard of this small town near Ottawa Ontairo. It was called Carleton Place. It was small and quiet.
"I like the idea of that small town. Why not. Max? Max, can we go to Carleton Place? It sounds like a great place to live. I think it would be great!" Nudge exclaimed. I looked at Fang. He nodded in approval.
"Ok. Why not? Let's go. Pack up your things kids. We're going to Canada." I said. A loud cheer came from Nudge, Iggy, Gazzy, and Angel. Even though I was worried, Iggy had a point. The Erasers would never look for us there. Canada would be the last place any one would look, and especially in a small town like Carleton Place.
