Thanks everyone for reviewing sorry its take so long for me to update I've been so busy but I bet that's everyone's excuse! Anyway on with the story. By the way, anything that I write about America or stuff in it isn't true (as far as I know) because I've never been there so I haven't got a clue. Just had to get that sorted.

Chapter 11 Blending
Driving was agony for Hunter. Every now and again Bree would ask questions like 'Why would Morgan just leave?', 'I wonder what's wrong', 'Do you think it's because of Cal?', 'Where do you think she's gone?' It was killing him. He never realised how annoying Bree could really be. He guessed it was all because he was desperate to get to Morgan and to make sure she's safe. Still right now he was resisting the urge to stop the car and throw her out.
"Let's play a game!" Bree said clapping her hands.
"No way. I don't want to play a game Bree. All I want to do is get to Morgan. Ok?" Hunter said stressed.
"Oh come on. We've got loads of time to kill before we get anywhere near where you think she is plus it will cheer you up! Ok…I spy with my little eye something beginning with…C!" She began.
"Bree I told you I'm not playing." He said.
"Yes you are now it begins with C" She continued.
Sighing Hunter guessed he might as well play. He would rather play then have to listen to her whining instead.
"I don't know. What about car?" He said deliberately not trying hard.
"Oh my God! How did you guess? I thought if I picked an obvious one then you wouldn't guess it! You're cleverer then I thought." She said obviously impressed. By what, Hunter had no idea.
"How did I guess? Well let me see. Considering we are surrounded by cars then it's pretty obvious that that's what it was." He said sarcastically.
"Oh yeah" Bree giggled stupidly. "Your turn."
"Fine. R." He said staring at the queue that seemed to stretch for ever.
"No, you have to say the whole thing." She laughed.
"Jeez. I spy with my little eye something beginning with R."
"Ok. R…R….what begins with R? Hmmm" She said thinking to herself and looking around. "Rabbit?" She asked hopefully.
"Where do you see a rabbit?" Hunter asked.
"Oh yeah, good point. What about Radio?"
"No"
"Racket?"
"What do you think?"
"Ok what about rats!" She said looking startled.
"There are no rats around here." He said annoyed.
While Bree was thinking more Hunter cast out his senses to see if he could feel any trace of Morgan here. Luckily he could feel that she had in fact gone this way. He sighed in relief knowing that he had followed his instincts correctly and was now finally getting closer to her.

Morgan had only been here a few hours but already she hated it. How could someone live like this? She thought. But then she realised. She was going to have to live like this. She scanned the room taking in the cigarette burned stained carpets and damp mucky walls. She saw the entranced to the bathroom and walked though. It looked like a door had been there but obviously it wasn't there anymore. The bathroom was basically just a toilet and a small shower. Morgan walked out again and crawled under the thin sheets. She was so tired. She closed her eyes and tried to release all the stress from today. But as soon as she closed her eyes images of Hunter floated in front of her. His looking scared, tired, worried and in love. She wished it was with her but how did she know. If he had a choice between her and Bree then if it was any other boy then there wouldn't be a choice it would be Bree every time. But this wasn't any other boy. This was Hunter. She loved him more then anything and that's one of the reasons she left. Apart from everything else, she couldn't stand being around him and Bree knowing that she loved him as she did. It would hurt her too much.
Slowly Morgan drifted off to sleep. But not before noticing Hunter cast out his senses looking for her. He was getting close.

"Do you sense her?" Bree asked watching Hunters face intently.
Hunter sighed. "Only just. She is in New York I got that right, but she's keeping her walls up still so that's all I've got." He said rubbing a hand over his face. He was nearly there, half and hour maybe. He and Bree planned on staying at a Motel for the night. Then spending all the time they have looking for Morgan.
"I still can't think of what it is." Bree stated.
"What are you talking about?" Hunter asked confused.
"I spy. You said it began with R and I still can't think of what it could be!" She exclaimed.
"Bree look around you. What have we been on all this time?" He said giving her easy clues.
"The world?" She guessed.
"Beginning with R?" He sighed.
"Oh. Oh that's hard."
"Bloody hell Bree! It's ROAD!" He said, annoyed.
"Oh yeah! Why didn't I think of that?" She asked herself.
"I can think of a few reasons." He murmured to himself, obviously Bree didn't hear.

Morgan woke up about 9 the next morning. For her, it was early but she had to make sure she was out of this Motel before Hunter got to New York. It felt like she would be running forever but she didn't care. She had to get away. Everything was going wrong.
She switched on her cell and saw that Hunter had left over 10 messages, each saying the same thing. "Where are you?" Morgan grabbed her back pack filled with all the stuff she needed and stuff she couldn't bear leaving behind and shut her bedroom door. She handed the greasy teenager at the counter her key and walked out of the rusty door. Now she had to find a permanent place to live and a job. This was going to be hard.
Walking down the streets of New York she finally had the chance to take in her surroundings. Yesterday she had be in such a hurry she didn't really look around. Cars lined the streets and people filled the pavements. Here she was just a normal person that nobody really saw. Unlike in Widows Vale where everybody knew who you were. Morgan could easily blend in here and move without anybody even caring, which is what she wanted.
Thanks for all the reviews but guess what! I WANT MORE! That is obvious….
