The Carrot Lover
Chapter One -RE-WRITE-
Emma POV
My father stood there and yelled at me to get to my room or he would kill me too.
-FLASHBACK-
It was a quiet night, about 3 am. My father just got home from
the bar, and I'm sure he was drinking pretty heavily. I heard screams as he dragged my mother up the stairs by her hair. I could only know because I was looking through a crack in the wall. After 15 minutes, I heard several loud cracks, like fireworks. It was the unmistakable noise of gunshots. Next thing I knew there was an ambulance in the driveway and my father explained that she fell down the stairs and out a window. I knew they would never believe it.
- END OF FLASHBACK-
I couldn't take it any more. I was eighteen and I had legal rights, so I packed a suitcase with necessary survival items like clothes, food; etc. Then I called a cab and when it pulled up I jumped out of the window, which was close to the ground and carefully ran to the road. I got in the cab and told the driver to take me to the airport.
When I got there I walked up and purchased a ticket to London when a cute boy walked up to me.
"Hello, what's your name, love?" he said.
"Emma Jean Baker," I said.
He was just about to tell me his, when the lady told us that te next flight was at 8:00 PM. Great 6 hours from now. Well at least I have this guy.
He was going to the same place that I was. Wow... What a coincidence, note the sarcasm.
"Would you like to sit next to me on the plane, love?" he asked me.
"Sure," I replied, "and will you stop calling me love? It's kind of annoying."
"Sorry, love."
"Dude, stop. It's not funny."
"Sorry, love," he said cheekily.
I glared at him. I stood looking at the guy. He looked familiar to me.
"Hey, what's your name again?" I asked.
"Louis William Tomlinson, nice to meet you!" He exclaimed.
My mouth just hung open, and I stared at him for what felt like forever until I realized that it was no big deal. I could be calm right? I was just going to sit next to a famous person on plane.
