BEFORE THE STORM! :)

Turn right.. into my arms..
turn right.. you won't be alone..
I ran as fast as I could. I couldn't go back to my place. No, not like this. I couldn't face my father like this. I'd never be able to create an excuse to tell. And then there was my mother. Gosh, if they saw me like this, they'd ground me for life. I ran and ran tripping over my feet here and there. I arrived hours later at the house and slowly knocked on the door.

I walked slowly to the door and opened it. "Steenie! Gosh!" I replied as I ushered her in. "What happened?" I asked after closing the door. She was breathing heavily. "Does Jay know your here?". She shook her head and I ushered her into the livingroom. She sat on the couch and I left her. I returned with my first aid kit and began tending to her wounds. She winced in pain as I could feel her shaking. "What happened?" I asked. She looked at me. "You can't tell my parents. Promsie me?" she asked. I nodded. Right now, I wasn't going to risk ruining my relationship with the sixteen year-old. "Nevermind.." she replied quickly. "Just, don't tell my parents" she said. I nodded. "I need $5,000,000" she breathed. I froze and stared at her. "W-Why?" I asked. "I just need it!" she exclaimed. "Can you help me?". I was quiet for a minute. I knew her father, Nick, was a rockstar, still was, but I don't think that he would give her this much money without a reason. I don't even think I could get that much money from Kevin. "That's a lot of money.." I began. She nodded. "I need it by tomorrow afternoon..". I looked at her. "In such little time.." I finished. "I want to give you the money.. but that would be betraying Kevin.." I said quietly. She stood up slowly. "Can't you stay for a bit?" I asked. "You can stay in the garage if you want.."
She shook her head. "I need to get that money.." she said weakly. "If I don't bad things are going to happen.." she explained. "Thanks aunt Heather" she said as she limped to the door and opened it.

I limped down the sidewalk. I had nowhere to go. Where was I going to get such a large amount of money from? And in such short notice too? I heard a car's horn and stopped as the black car pulled up beside me. The window rolled down revealing my boyfriend's face, Jake. "Hey babe, what happened?" he asked. I opened the door and slowly got in. I closed it and laid my head back on the carseat. "Just drive.." I said. "I'll tell you on the way". After we were on the road for a few minutes, I looekd at him. "You can never bring me home. You can never tell my parents that I'm with you" I said. He stopped the car in a deserted area and looked at me. "Why? Steenie, what's going on?". I sighed. "I'm in danger.." I whispered.
