Description
She looked out her window, scrunching her eyes to see through the glass covered panes.

Was that her Father?
Wait, no. The car isn't a Ford, it's a Toyota.

She snorted when the car owner parked in her Father's parking space. Kelly was such an idiot, parking there when she knew it was only a few minutes until he decided to show up. Drunk, no doubt, but still at home.

The girl got out, waving her hand at her window, a giant grin plastered on her face.

It reminded her of their conversation on the roof.

'Kelly took a drag out of her cigarette and handed it to Cheri, smiling lazily.

"So," Kelly began, "You think about our deal?"

Cheri dipped her head down, puffing on the cigarette and hiding her look. Of course she thought about the deal. Run away with Kelly, they were legally 18, no hold on the hell hole they were stuck in. But her Father.
And of course, he was numero uno on reasons to high-tail it out of there.

She lifted her head back up and smirked, playing it innocent, "What deal, Kels?"

Kelly huffed, "Don't act all dumb and ditzy. Our deal Chex, where you leave with me. Head to New York, where you got accepted at that great University. You said yourself your Grandma would love to pay tuition. Why not?"

Cheri grimaced, "You know exactly why not. I would never do that"

Kelly threw her arm around Cheri's shoulder, "Your Mom wouldn't want you to stay with him; you know that as well as I know your name is Cheri Mikeeli Dricter"

Cheri leaned into the half-embrace, "Yeah, that's true. When would we leave?"

"Tomorrow. At the latest"

Cheri threw the cigarette on the ground, crushing under her foot. Looking at Kelly, she pecked her cheek and said, "Tomorrow then"'

Well, Kelly did say she should try hitting the ground running. After all, she was and adrenaline junkie.
