Running Away Stories

Whilst reaseaching, I came across a few short stories about running away. Some are serious and upsetting, however some were light-hearted and ended happy.

Here is a short opening of one I found.

'An Educational Escape

The girls had planned to meet up by 6:00am outside Beth's place and together proceeded to walk up to the highway. The frosted grass glistened with the sunrise, and while Shelly and her best mate chatted, it was so brisk that each word spoken was exhaled in a foggy mist. The two sixteen year olds looked like professional back packer's and rather cute ones at that. They had been planning to run away to join their friends for Schoolies Week' on the Gold Coast for the last five months and believed they had covered every detail. They performed odd jobs, like walking neighbours dogs and helping out at the servo washing cars on weekends all to raise some extra money.'
