You just have to brush off the pain.

[haileyjordan]

Cassandra,
I sighed as I rested my head against the cabinet. I felt so bad keeping Rodney up like this. I didn't want him to suffer because I was. I chewed on the inside of my cheek before taking a sip.

Joshua,
"You know what? Why don't we take a vacation? Just get away from this place," I suggested. If I could get her mind off of the used to be, she would be happier.

[lauren.]

Rodney;
I breathed in as I looked around the dark room. We needed to leave. We needed to find that new house we've been talking about and leave this town. I needed something to make her happy and keep her preoccupied.

Darcy;
My eyes lit up slightly as I looked at him,"That sounds fantastic,"I breathed out. "Where would we go?"

[haileyjordan]

Cassandra,
I finished my tea and put it in the sink, running my hand through my hair. I made my way back into the room, leaning against the doorway. "This is a lot harder to get away from than I thought," I said.

Joshua,
I shrugged, "Wherever you want. I want you to be happy, and wherever we go, as long as I'm with you I'm happy baby," I told her, kissing her forehead.

[lauren.]

Rodney;
I lifted my head to look at her,"I know. How would you like to live somewhere out if state? Try something new. Meet new people?"I asked staring at her, intensely. I know it was random but it needs to be done.

Darcy;
I grinned, biting my lip,"When?"I asked wrapping my arms tightly around his waist. My heart was swelling with so much happiness at the moment, that it's strange.

[haileyjordan]

Cassandra,
I looked at him, a little shocked. "Out of state?" I asked. It was a stretch, but it also didn't sound that bad. "Is that the best thing for us?"

Joshua,
"How about tomorrow? As soon as possible," I said, running my hands through her hair.

[lauren.]

Rodney;
I nodded,"We need something different. This house has memories but mostly dark memories,"I said shivering slightly. I got off the bed and moved in front of her. "What do you say baby? Start new,"I said looking into her eyes.

Darcy;
I nodded,"Yes,"I said,"Sounds fantastic,"I said looking up at him, grinning. I would do anything with this man. I trusted him with my life. I leaned up and kissed his lips.

[haileyjordan]

Cassandra,
I couldn't help but smile as he spoke, "That sounds wonderful," I told him. He was right; this place held more bad memories than good. It was never bad to start new, and we both needed that. He needed to get away from the reminder of alcohol, and I needed to get away from the terror of the drugs.

Joshua,
I kissed her back, but didn't pull too far away. "I'm going to make sure you enjoy every minute of it," I whispered to her with a small creeping onto my lips.

[lauren.]

Rodney;
My heart squeezed with joy as I saw her smile. I grinned back as I hugged her tightly, spinning her around. "This will be perfect,"I said as I kissed her lips.

Darcy;
I smiled as I wrapped my arms around his neck,"And how will you do that? Not that I'm complaining or anything,"I said laughing softly. He knew how to take my mind off the bad things.

[haileyjordan]

Cassandra,
I giggled as he picked me up. "When do we plan on leaving?" I asked him. I wanted to go now honestly, but I knew we had plenty of packing and organizing to do first.

Joshua,
I grinned at her, "That's for me to know, and for you to find out," I told her as I kissed her. "But I know that you'll enjoy it no matter what."

[lauren.]

Rodney;
I shrugged,"We'll we need to find a place first,"I said as I caressed her cheek gently. "We can always start in an apartment while we're looking for a house because honestly, I'm ready to leave at this very moment,"I said chuckling softly.

Darcy;
I grinned,"Alrighty then,"I said pressing myself against him and kissing him deeply. "I love you so very much,"I whispered against his lips.

[haileyjordan]

Cassandra,
"I'm up for anything, as long as it's not here," I said with a smile. "Small is good to start out with anyways." We were both eager to leave, you could read it on us.

Joshua,
"I love you too baby. I'd give you the world if I could," I told her as I kissed her. "I say we should start packing now. Get an early start."

[lauren.]

Rodney;
I smiled,"Alright. Where do we want to move to?"I asked as I rubbed her arms gently. I was thinking somewhere nice, beautiful, & gorgeous.

Darcy;
I smiled,"Okay,"I said kissing his lips gently before pulling away to find our suitcases. This was so exciting!

[haileyjordan]

Cassandra,
"Oh somewhere great." I said with a smile. "Somewhere warm. Like Florida," I added as I hugged myself.

Joshua,
I could see that she was excited by how she moved around. She was much more lively. That's how I always wanted her to be. I smiled to myself as I began to pack my things.

[lauren.]

Rodney;
I grinned,"Florida sounds great,"I said. I was so excited for us. I want to see her happy, to see her feeling carefree.

Darcy;
I smiled as I moved around the room, finding everything that I needed. I stopped for a moment,"Where will we be going? Warm or cold?"I asked.

[haileyjordan]

Cassandra,
"I'm really looking forward to this. I really want a fresh start," I told him as I sighed happily. "I feel so worn here."

Joshua,
"Warm," I told her with a smile. I didn't want to go to the cold, we already had enough of that here.
