Together Forever
Together Forever is actually sort of a romance, probably the only romance that I will write though. It's about a girl named Tulip and a boy named Caleb, both of them are fifteen. Caleb and Tulip meet at a grocery store in Des Moines, Iowa. Tulip is sitting on a bench waiting for her mom to be done taking her younger brother, Henry, to the bathroom. Caleb is sitting on another bench far across from Tulip, Caleb starts a conversation with her and Tulip starts to like this boy. They walk to classes together at school, they help each other study for tests, they help each other carry their stuff. They're great together. But their lives outside of each other isn't the best. Caleb has been an orphan since he was four because his parents died in a house fire. He has moved at least ten times before and had at least seven families, his first family was his mom's parents, but they both died of cancer at almost the exact same time. He ran away from the rest of his families, they all abused him. And now he's ended up with the Canthers, the Canthers aren't exactly abusive though, they're just kind of strict. Tulip has a boring life, she is never aloud to stay up late with her friends, she has only had about five sleepovers in her life, and she always has to help out with her younger brother Henry. One day, Tulip sneaks out of the house in the middle of the night to go to a party one of the popular girls are having, apparently Caleb is there. Actually, he didn't want to go, bullies kidnapped him from his house so they could embarrass Caleb in front of everyone at the party. Caleb and Tulip get away from the party and sneak back inside their houses. But over the night Caleb plans out an idea, they will be running away together, they could live in the abandoned house he had saw when he took a drive around Des Moines with his parents. Tulip likes the idea and they run away together, to be together forever. But when Tulip's mom finds them, they realize that their lives were perfect just how they were.
