Chapter 45 - Bye Texas

"Michigan," Ava says confidently. "Uhm, why Michigan?" "So many coastlines! Which means beaches for dumb brains," Ava sneers, "Also, it snows, so it's a winner." "Alright then. I guess you're leaving now?" "Yeah.. My flight leaves in an hour. It's a thirty-minute drive." "Wait, you can drive?" "I've aced the written test so how hard is it? Plus I've practiced." "Okay... Just stay safe. I'll hold as much information from dad as much as possible. I'll even make sure i'll say you're in California." "Alright then." Ava says in a sad tone.

She doesn't want to leave, like she's said before. She wants to fight her dad, have her first birthday with her brother, do all things that a family could do (excluding Eric). She picks up Noah Oliver and gives him to Blake. "Ava I can't take your-" "NO! He wants to say bye! I would never give away my child." "Oh, sorry, haha.." Blake hugs Noah Oliver, and he cooes. "Love you champ. Stay good, keep your mom safe." Noah Oliver smiles and drools a little, so Blake passes him over. "Love you Ava. Stay safe, don't get in trouble. Get a good job too. Also, find a good place to live with that money, and try to cook more. Don't spend money till you make more." "Okay okay DAD! Well, a better version. And I know I haven't said it, but I love you too. I appreciate you and-" "Bye, Ava. It's better this way. Less painful." Blake sighs and walks out the room. Ava carries her things out the room, with Noah Oliver in one hand. She reaches her dad's expensive car and puts Noah Oliver in his car seat. She then transfers all their stuff in the trunk. She hops in the drivers seat and starts the engine. "Bye guys.."

It was a short drive, but long nonetheless. They finally arrive at the airport, and people help with their bags. Ava gets Noah Oliver out as she passes the car seat to the worker. They are going to drive her dad's car on a tow truck all the way to Michigan. She decided on a little one story house in Detroit. Perfect for herself and Noah Oliver. Once she arrives, she'll start looking at daycares and jobs. Ava couldn't be more excited.

Ava sits in her seat with Noah Oliver, and she stares out the window. They are about to take off. They won't have any turbulence trouble because she's literally the Titan Queen, which gave Noah Oliver Titan powers. They have already seen his progress in forming a little rain cloud. The airplane takes off, and off they go.
