This chapter is really short I know, I felt this one needed to be short because I'm just getting into the main plot of the story. Dont hate me on my shortness:(

I wriggled in my bed covers as I smelt the familiar smell of coffee. Coffee was my second weakness, my first was Joey. I slowly opened my eyes and saw Joey sat at the bottom of my bed holding a mug of coffee just as I suspected.

"Morning." He said in a soft tone waiting for me to sit up.

"Is this what i'm getting from now on? Room service?" I smiled and quickly sat up to collect the hot coffee from my boyfriend.

"Obviously." Joey smiled. "Haven't you got councilling today?"

I blinked slightly as I remembered yesterdays events. I cancelled my whole program, I didn't want it anymore... She was judging me as if I did something wrong. "Um, Not today."

Joey moved towards me and sat underneath the covers. "Now, Dont lie. Your mum said you did... What's wrong?"

It was impressive how this boy could read me as if I was a book. "She judged me. I'm not going back."

"Judged you?" Joey echoed.

"I spoke about how me and you were getting back together, She got all judgmental and started saying how it probably wasn't the best idea for me that the moment and how I should steer clear of relationships. But that's not what I want, anyone who knows me well enough knows that I sunk to my lowest point because I lost you... Now i've got you back i'm certain that's never happening again."

"Oh Lauren." Joey swung his arm around me as I sunk into him.

"I just wanna-" My thoughts drifted away with me.

"Wanna what?"

"Joey, Can we leave? Now? Just like never come back..." I sat up and looked at him.

"We didn't get very far last time." He pointed out and raised an eye brow. "If you're serious? I just wanna be with you."

"Let's just go. Tell nobody. Just fly away together." I smiled as I quickly pulled a suitcase out from underneath my bed. "This is going to be perfect!"

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

It was half an hour later and I was waiting outside the RnR for Joey. He told me to be here by half 10 and that he'd grab one of Derek's old cars to take off in. I felt my phone buzz in my pocket.

1 Unread Message:

Mum: Where are you?

I just chose to ignore it. I didn't feel horrible for leaving them, They wouldn't even notice I was gone and personally I think it would just be better for all of them if I got away and stopped dragging the Brannings down. I noticed Joey pull up infront of me in a dark blue convertable.

"We're doing this?" He shouted to me over the noise of the cars engine.

"We're doing this." I echoed as he got out and put my bags in the back. "No turning back baby."

"Never." Joey held his hand out as I grabbed hold of it.

In this moment, It felt like a fairy tale was just beginning. A new life for me and Joey... A better life.
