Broken.

•Hailey's POV•

When I jumped out the window.

I just ran.

I didn't look back.

Since it was only 6 pm.

I ran to Hayes' house.

I knocked on the door.

Hayes opened it.

"Hayes." I hug him and cry into his chest.

I pulled away.

"What happened?" He asks concerned.

"My mom yelled at me. And it hurt me. My dad didn't do anything to stop her. He just. Sat there." I say.

"Come on let's go inside." He says.

"No Hayes. I can't." I say.

"Why?" He asks.

"I wanted to say Goodbye. Forever. " I say as more tears spill out.

"What?" He questions.

"I'm fleeing to another place. I hate it here. I want to stay somewhere. Where no one will find me." I say and turn around and walk off the porch.

"No." He yells and grabs me and pulls me into his chest.

"You can't leave." He whispers.

"I love you." He whispers again.

"I have to. Everyone hates me." I whisper.

"Then I'm going with you." He says and pulls me into his house.

We both ran up the stairs.

"Nobody's home. They went out to an arcade place. I didn't want to go. I felt sick." He says and packs.

"Let's go." He says and zips up his duffle bag.

"Can we make a few arrangements?" I ask.

"What do you mean?" He asks.

"I put my clothes into your duffle bag and we can put snacks into my backpack." I say.

"Okay." He says and smiles.

We were in the middle of nowhere right now.

Maybe in a desert because it's freaking hot.

But there is no sand. Ha ha.

•Clara's POV•

(Clara is Hailey, Emily, and Cams mom)

"Clara go check on Hailey." My husband Ryan demands.

I walk up the stairs and knock on Hailey's door.

"Hailey." I say.

"Hailey." I say once again.

I open the door and see a note on her bed.

I read the Note checked everywhere then saw the window open then I ran downstairs.

"Ryan!" I yell and show him the note.

"I shouldn't have yelled at her." I whisper to myself.

"Call her." He says and I grab my phone and dial her number.

It's rings for awhile then goes straight to voice mail.

"I think I know where she is." I say and run outside.
