I left the house key they gave me on the bed along with a note telling them I can't live here anymore and I needed to do my own thing. I snuck out the window dropping my bag gently down on the ground. Thank God for two things:

1) it was a one-story house
2) I had a car.

I shut my window and walked to my car and got in throwing my bag in the back seat. I started up the car and drove to the nearest airport. I parked my car farthest away from the doors to the airport and grab my bag locking the door as I walked away. I hated leaving my car there but I had to. I walked into the airport and went to the desk to buy a ticket.

"Hello can I help you?"

"Yes when is the next flight to Los Angelos California?" I asked her politely.

"In 20 minutes."

"I'll take it." I said and I paid for the ticket and went to board the plane. I boarded the plane and I hunted through my bag for my Ipod. Thank God I had it. I put my ear-buds in my ear and turned it to Nightmare by Avenged Sevenfold. I loved that song and I could feel the plane taking off and it really scared me at first but after it smoothed out I was alright. I was listening to the song when someone poked me on the shoulder. I took out my ear-buds and looked at her.

"Would you like anything?" she asked with a smile.

"Could I get a sprite?"

"Can or bottle?" she asked smiling.

"Bottle please." She left to get my drink and I was so damn thirsty. She came back with my drink and sipped on it. I put in my bag and laid my head back and before I knew it I was fast asleep. I was awaken to someone nudging me. I seen it was the same flight attendant.

"Time to exit the plane. Welcome to Los Angelos."

"Thank you." I said and grabbed my bag and leaving the plane. I walked through the airport and I had no idea which way to go from here. I walked up to a woman at the desk.

"May I help you?"

"Yes ma'am I was just wondering how far it is to Huntington Beach from here." I asked setting my bag at my feet.

"Right down the road about 55 miles from here."

"Thank you." I said picking up my bag.

"Do you need a rental car?"

"No thank you. I'll walk." I said walking away.

"That's a pretty long walk!"

"I need the exercise." I said as I left the airport. I started walking down the road with my backpack on my back and Ipod in my ear. Thank God it was a song I could actually walk to get my mind off the pain in my legs as night approached. I seen a sign that said Huntington Beach 1 Mile.

I didn't want to stop until I seen the beach and the ocean. I looked down at my phone and it was midnight. I couldn't believe my foster parents hadn't called to find out where I was. Hell they wouldn't even notice me gone either way because of the fact they paid more attention to their Sweet Little Angels. Sweet little angels my fucking ass. I got blamed for shit they did and was punished for it. I seen a park and decided to sleep there for the night. I sat under a weeping willow tree and it would hide me in case anyone would recognize me. I laid down covering myself up with the jacket I brought with me.

I was just about to sleep when I felt something heavy on me. I looked up and there was a man with a Jack Daniels bottle half empty laying on my legs. I seen he had a lot of tattoos. His lip was pierced and he was just absolutely gorgeous. Sunglasses were hiding his eyes and I tried move my legs from under him. He groaned and opened his eyes and smiled. He had some cute dimples as he grinned wide.

"Hi."

"Hi." I said still pulling on my legs. He looked down and seen me was on my legs and slowly got up and sat beside me.

"Sorry about that. I guess I tripped over you."

"Oh that's perfectly alright." I said looking down.

"I'm Matt Sanders. Who are you?" He extended his hand and I shook it.

"I'm Aerial." I said smiling.

"You have a pretty smile."

"Thanks." I said blushing.

"Why are you out here by yourself for?"

"I left my foster home. I needed a new start." I said looking down at the ground fiddling with my fingers.

"Oh. I'm drinking with my friends. I'm trying to find them you haven't seen anybody come by here have you?"

"No. You're the only one I've seen in quite a while." I said looking up at him and then looking back down at the ground. I heard voices calling out Matt's name. He looked over towards the yelling and I quietly got up.

"Over here!" He waved his hands up in the air drawing the 4 other men over to us. I ran away towards a bush and crept behind it.

"Matt there you are. Dude we were looking all over for you." one of the men said. He was tall and had tattoos all over his arms too. His jet black hair came down over his eyes.

"I was just sitting here talking to Aerial."

"Who's Aerial?" another man asked. This guy had tattoos but not a lot. His hair was blonde and brown and his nose was pierced. The guy that stood next to him also had tattoos and he had snake bite piercings just like me. His jet black hair was turned to the left. The last guy had a tattoo of handcuffs on his neck and his hair was spike a little. I had no idea who they were but they all looked cool.

"She's sitting right here." Matt pointed to where I was.

"There's no one there." He looked over and seen I was gone.

"I tell you guys she was right here." Matt said standing up but with a little help from the guys. The guys just rolled their eyes. Maybe I should come out and tell them but what if there was posters asking about me. I stayed behind the bush.

"Maybe we'll see her again." Matt pointed out as they walked away. When they were out of sight, I walked back over to my sleeping spot and laid down for the night. I kept my eyes open and thought about when I left 2 days ago. I had no regrets leaving those assholes and I sure as hell didn't want to go back. I left and I'm sure as hell not looking back.
