(Y/N)'s Pov

How long has it been? Weeks? Months? Years? Four years... Four years since I've stepped out of this hell hole I call home. Four years without freedom. Four years with Tord. Tord... how much has he changed? Was he really a bad influence as my father told me? Or was it brain wash? Who truly am I?

"Miss (Y/N)? Your father wants to see you."

The head maid spoke to me as I gazed out the window. I stood silently for a few moments.

"Yes. I'll be down soon."

I muttered unemotionally before I heard footsteps grow faint as they walked away. I bit my lip as I looked down my widow. It's time. I turned yo walk towards my mirror to gaze upon myself.

I let out a sigh. I never really liked wearing dresses. But then again when have I not wore this kind of clothing. But... my father told me it's for my own good. I'll become "powerful" one day. Hence I'm unsure of what he meant by that phrase, but I shall not judge him. I walked down the hall way and down the stairs, my heels clicking each step I take. Then I finally made it down stairs and walked towards the living room, where my father was awaiting me. He paced back and forth in a hurry. Why was he so worried?

"Father?"

I asked him. He looked back at me and ran towards me. He grabbed my wrist and glared into my eyes.

"(Y/N). We need to leave. Now. Go outside and get in the limo. No time to explain."

There was a hint of panic in his voice.

"B-But why?"

I asked in confusion. He pulled my wrist harshly.

"Don't ask questions. Just DO AS I SAY!"

I winced at his lashes before he let go of me. I needed to get out off here. Not go to the limo. But leave this place completely. I ran out the door as I tried not to trip with my heels. I ran past the limo and towards the gates. I burst through the gates and looked around quickly. Everything had changed. I looked over to where Tord and I used to meet. It had been replaced with a large building. I started panic. I didn't know where to go. I hurried down the sidewalk, away from everything I ever knew. I closed my eyes, I ran as fast as I could. It wasn't a very good idea, as I ended up bumping into someone. We both fell back onto the ground.

"Oww... I'm sorry sir!"

I apologize quickly. The man wore a green hoodie with tan jean and chocolate brown hair.

"Hah.. It's fine. Let me help you you up."

He stood up and extended his hand towards me. I took it gladly.

"Thank you kind sir."

I bowed in respect. He looked at me in confusion.

"Uh... you're welcome? Why are you acting so formal? Are you not from around here?"

He asked.

"Is this not normal? I'm sorry. I haven't met new people in years..."

Then I remembered what I was doing.

"I find myself blunt asking this, but is there a way you could help me hide from society for a while? I need to get away from my father immediately. Please?"

I asked bluntly. His eyes widened at me blunt question.

"I... umm... I think we have an extra room in our house... I guess you can stay there. I have three other roommates and there all boys so..."

My eyes widened at his kindness. Was he really going to let a stranger stay in his home.

"You're so kind! Thank you! Let's hurry. I need to get out of this place."

He nodded at my words and took my wrist. He started running and I was pulled along.

"What's your name?"

He asked as we ran.

"(Y/N). (Y/N) (L/N)."

He turned back to look at me with widened eyes.

"The (Y/N) (L/N)? Oh my god I didn't know! What are you doing running away from your father?"

He asked curiously. I let out a sigh and looked down.

"A rich life is not the best life. What's your name?"

I asked him, trying to change the subject. He smiled and looked forward.

"I'm Edd. Edd Gould."
