Chapter 2.

Naomi's POV

I have spent the afternoon with Emily, the girl who helped me change my tire. As I was talking to her I have drawn to her with intrigued as to why she wanted to run away, and I couldn't help myself but to ask her as to why.

'Emily..' I started trailing off. 'If you don't mind, I would like to ask you why you wanted to run away.'

She smiles at me before she answers, 'Well, I wanted to run away because my bitchy bigot mother wants me to marry a guy who is so madly in love with my twin sister.'

'Whoa there—there's a two of you?' I asked dumbly of what was already obvious.

'Yeah. Her name is Katie. We are identical but I think that's the only thing making us the same. In case you haven't noticed, I'm gay and Katie is not.'

'So let me figure this out, you're mother can't accept that you're gay.'

'True enough. So Tim, Katie's boyfriend and I have to pretend as a couple whenever she's around. But what happened last night was something that pulls the last straw.'

'And what was this?'

'Well mum asked Tim to propose to me. Obviously, me and my twin are against this in behalf of Tim. He wants to propose, but not with me. So last night as we all tell our mum the truth she decided to kick me out, she thought I was going to protest but hell to the no, it's been a long time since I've ever wanted to runaway. I just couldn't leave just yet because of my sister, but when Katie finally tells me that she's going to be fine without me that it's time for me now to chase my happiness then I have decided to listen to her.' Emily finishes off her speech by drinking her coffee.

'So when are you planning of making this dream of yours come true? I mean the chasing of happiness?'

'I'm actually leaving by tomorrow.'

Once I have heard her answer, I immediately asked her 'Runaway with me, Emily. I mean only if you want to?'

'Course I would love to. But for now, I have to go and meet up with my best friend. So let's go?'

I follow Emily's lead outside the coffee shop towards the parking area.

'So I'm gonna take my car, are you going to be okay with your mope?'

'Yeah. Just follow me. The drive to the pub isn't far from here.'

True enough, about after 15 minutes drive, we finally reached our destination.

'So here we are. My best friend Cook works here.'

'Why is your best friend named Cook?'

'Actually, his name is James. Cook is his last name, but then when we were at middle school, he decides to be called as Cook cause it'll make him a cool person. Besides, I'm the only one allowed to call him James but that only happens when I'm pissed off with him.' Emily giggles the cutest of all giggles as we enter the pub. God, what is this girl doing to me?

'Wow, this is a bit crowded for a Saturday.'

'Yeah. This place is always full no matter what day it is. Oh hey, Naoms, let me warn you before we get to where Cook is, that Cook can be a prick sometimes all though he really is a good guy and all.'

'Don't worry Ems, I think I'm old enough to handle a prick as Cook is.'

Not long enough, a sandy-blonde haired guy came bouncing towards us and carries Emily. 'Emilio, man. Glad to see you alive.'

'Put me down, James.'

'Alright, alright. Sorry I was just glad to see you before ya leave tomorrow.' Before he ushers Emily to a table on the corner, his attention catches me, 'Oooh. I could see you got a fit bird yourself here Emilio.'

'Fuck off Cook. This is Naomi, Naomi this is Cook.'

'Hello, m'lady. So glad to see you.' Cook aimed to kiss me on the cheek but I ducked so he ended up kissing the air which causes Emily to laugh.

'So, Emilio are you all set for your escapade starting tomorrow?'

'I have never been this excited Cook and to be honest, I'm so eager to find my happiness finally.'

'What about you Blondie?'

'Huh? What do you mean what about me?'

'Well, you said you aren't from here and you're a Bristol local. I supposed you're heading off to somewhere?'

'Oh right. I actually don't have any place to stay here tonight.'

'Well you can stay with me Naoms, since we'd be running away together. It would be fair if I just let you sleep on your car.' Emily offers.

'Well why, thank you. Thought you never ask.'

After eight shots of tequila each and about 6 sex invitations from Cook, Emily and I decided to call it a night and to head home to her flat. God, that sounded like we're living in to one flat.

Once we were out, Emily took the opportunity to apologize to me to how Cook acted in front of me.

'I'm sorry about Cook.' She says a little breathlessly.

'It's okay, no harm was done.'

'Well I wouldn't let him do you any harm.' She says directly to my ears that I could almost feel her hot breath.

'Yeah. So Emily, are you still going to drive your mope?' I asked knowing how tipsy she is.

She turns her attention to her mope, as if to ask for its advice before she answers me. 'Well, I don't have any means of transportation you see, so yeah I have to drive it home. Don't worry though; my flat is just a few block away from here.'

'Alright. Lead the way Ms. Fitch.'

After about 5 minutes, we finally reached Emily's flat.

'Welcome to my humble abode' She grins sheepishly as she held the door open for me.'

'A bit chivalrous are we?' I teased the moment we entered her flat.

'Well, not everyone does that nowadays. Would you like to drink anything?'

'You have a tea?' I asked as I seat on the bean bag nearest to me.

'Yeah. Hey, make yourself feel at home as I put the kettle on. There's the remote on the coffee table, you can turn on the TV.'

'Well, if you don't mind. I kinda need to pee?'

'Oh the bathroom's the third door, under the stair case.'

Once I got out of the bathroom, Emily was already seated on her couch having her own cuppa.

'You've got yourself a big flat here. What do you do for a living. If you don't mind me asking.

' I actually work with my mum's business, which is a flowershop. She was actually planning of giving it to me the moment me and Tim settles down, but I don't care about it if you know what I mean.'

'Yeah I got you. So what's going to happen with your place now once you start travelling?'

'Oh I had this sold to Katie and Tim. They'd be moving in the day after tomorrow.' She answers with a little yawn.

'Tired?'

'Mmm.' She coos with another yawn. Let's go.'

'Go where?'

'Uh upstairs. My room is upstairs.'

'Its fine. I can sleep here on the couch.'

'I wouldn't let you. Besides my bed is big enough to serve both of us. So don't be daft Naomi and lets go.

After we both changed into something decent to sleep on we finally climbed up to her bed, and true enough, Emily's bed was really huge.

'Good night Naomi.'

'Goodnight Emily.'

So there we go with our second unbeta'd chapter. All in Naomi's POV. Last night, I changed the title of this fanfic but I don't know if everybody got the chance to read it so allow me to explain again why I had to change the title, it's because I have just found out that there is another Naomily fanfic with the same title so I've decided right on the spot to change my original title.
