I waited for two hours in my room that night. waiting to sneek out my window.
I know I had school the next day,But I didn't care.I had the grades if I at least slept in homeroom. I waited until I hear my dad close his door and slame down on his bed.I waited until he started to snor just in case he woke up. If he did.......lets just say that wouldn't be good news for me. I put some sweat pants on and a black tank.With my black converse. I poped my screen out of my window and jumped out of it. It was only twelve o'clock so I was set for at least until three that way i'd get three hours of sleep. Joy. But that didn't matter I wanted out of the situation I was in and just leave my world for a while. So I went to my favorite place in Jersey.
The beach.
I walked three blocks and was there. It's better at night.No one here.No nagging little children to want to play in the water.Or up tight preps. trying to show off to what they would call "hot" guys. I sat down on the grass and watch and listend to the Ocean. It was so soothing. It cleared all my worries and pain that it felt like I was the only person in the world.I started to remember the good times when mom was here.Even thoght there weren't that many,I still had some. I remember the day I first went to the beach,I walked with my mom and dad they had both my hands and were swinging me as we walked down the beach.
And then I remembered the day mom left. I was sitting in my room coloring a picture of our small but uniqe famliy.Then I heard my dad get mad at my mom,yelling at her to get back in the house.I looked out my window and saw her get in her truck and start the engine.She looked up at me through my window,then just.....left. I shook my head to take out the memories. Then I heard someone come down the sand.I jumped. And I started towards the bushes. If it was a cop,there'd be no way I could explain this to dad.
I fell in the bushes,holding back a scream, cause something stabbed my back,and it was sharp.
"No! I'm not the cops...... I promise." The voice said. I didn't know if I could trust it so I stayed for a little while longer.
"Um, you can come out..... hah I can actually see you,and you look like your in pain.Are you alright?" He said. I gave it a shot and gave this person a chance. I hoped out the bushes and clenched my fists until I couldn't take the pain anymore.
"Ahhh! Crude that hurt!!!!!" The boy looked at me as if I was stupid for screaming. And then he relized how he looked and snapped out of it.
"Um,are you alright?"
"Oh I'm just fine and dandy! Thanks,bye!" I started to walk off.
"No wait, Can I just ask you something?" He said.
"Um,first of all I don't know you,and second you just made me land in a very painful bush for making me think you were the cops.......and you wanna ask me something?" I had to admitte I was a little ticked off he made me jump for no reason.
"actually I do.And I'm sorry for making you jump in the bush,but what are you doing out here at twelve at night?" He asked anyways.
" Um,reasons.....wait shouldn't I be asking you that question? Wait now I am,what are you doing out here?"
" Beacause, I needed to get away from life...." He trailed off in thought.
" I see. Well, If i can trust you enough to tell you I at least need to know your name. I'm October." I don't know why I was going to trust this stranger,but I felt I could. (weird).
"Jospeh. Joseph- I cut him off.
"Jonas I know, I was just making sure you wouldn't give me some stupid name." And as I said the words I relized it was true,and that I just relized it was joseph jonas,small world.
"Okay then October,now you have to tell me why your out here." I looked at him.
"long story."
" We have pretty much all night sorta..." What heck why not just tell him. Not like i'd see him again.
