Olive's p.o.v.
I didn't know what to get him. I honestly didn't. I ended up walking to the Walmart that was close by and getting him a make your own stamp kit that was in a tiny briefcase. I thought he would love it, because you can take pictures of yourself, or anything for that matter, and turn it into a stamp. I scurried home with it, getting it wrapped and slipping into his room with it just before his mother got home. I was surprised to see him awake and up, standing in his art corner making a portrait of me with lights.
"Olive I!" he suddenly yelped sensing my presence and knowing he should have been in bed.
"Interesting factoid, you should be resting, but you're the sweetest." I smiled as he climbed back into bed
"Watch'ya got behind your back?" he questioned
"Well, I may have got something special at Walmart for you."
"What may you have gotten?" he asked playing along
"I may let you open it and see, if you tell me the correct answer to this question."
"What question?"
"Como se de se 'hottie'?"
"Olive."
"Precisely, now here's your present." I smirked handing him the little briefcase filled with art supplies. I could tell he could barely contain his excitement after ripping off the shimmery wrapping paper
"Olive, this is so cool! Thank you so much, you're the best!"
"I know I am," I laughed "but simmer down, we want to be ready for Friday right?"
"Right. And I won't touch this before we get back." He agreed as his mom's car pulling into the garage was heard
"Remember; we can't tell." I reminded him giving him a kiss on the forehead before going downstairs to greet his mom and give her the report on how Fletcher was doing.

Fletcher's p.o.v.
I was doing much better, and felt better to. I was planning on going to school Friday with Olive, who had stayed home all week with me. I had wanted to go to school today, but my mother had insisted I not push my recovery, but did clear me off of complete bed rest. A relief to me. At this point Olive and I had been playing Monopoly together, a game that I could never win. When the clock chimed noon and the game had been put away, I brought up tomorrow.
"What are we going to do tomorrow, leave when we get home?"
"No, we need more hours ahead of the police and everyone that's going to be looking for us. Hold on, ill bring down everything." She dashed upstairs, bringing down a backpack.
"I have some clothes in here, but here's everything else we're going to need. I have it all in my drawers. There's a brown wig for me, a hat for you, and we're gonna need a lot the money from my bank account."
"How much do you have?"
"About four thousand." She mumbled, not wanting to talk about it.
"Wait, so how are we getting there?"
"I already got two plane tickets booked, but you're going to have to play along with what I say for it to work and them not be suspicions, ok?"
"Alright. Olive, shouldn't we all go to get Molly?"
"Fletcher, I can't take everyone. Or your parents I mean."
"Olive," I protested
"Fletcher, I'm sorry I have you into this, I really am. That's why I'm righting my wrongs."
"What are you talking about Olive?"
"I'm sorry Fletcher, I can't take you."
"No, you're not going alone!"
"I've been up all night for the past week thinking it over, your parents will hate me! Never mind foster my sister. She's going to need a lot of care Fletcher, I can't ask anyone to do that."
"I don't care Olive, we can do it. We'll leave here, find somewhere to go, it'll all work out!"
"You would abandon your family for me? Fletcher, we're missing the logical explanation."
"Which is what precisely?"
"I need to tel your parents and listen to their judgment."
"No, WE need to tell my parents."
"Together?"
"Forever." I answered automatically hugging her
Alright, hope that was ok? I'll update soon with more for you guys :D
