Ashton and Jennie agreed they'd drop me to the airport, only if I agreed to talk to them with whatever they wished to talk about.

"Soo, what now." I asked, sniffling.

The car started moving, Jennie exchanging a glance with Ashton.

"We're sorry that all happened.." He finally said, as I remained silent.

"It's okay, now they could focus on their career without me getting in the way. I'm a liar, after all. Right?"

"No, Julie. You and Luke had something.. And it all was ruined. We feel bad that--"

"You don't have to feel bad. It was all my fault, okay? I chose to let him go, he decided the same. It's done." I cut Jennie off stubbornly.

There was a tense filled silence in the car, me aimlessly glancing out the window.

"I'll tell them the reason why you did all this, when we get back, okay? They'll understand." Ashton tried to reassure me, but it didn't work.

"It's fine, Ashton. Just.. Please don't even try anymore." I sighed, fiddling with the zipper on my suitcase.

During the drive to the airport, it was nothing but silence, as soon as we arrived.

And that was about.. A twenty minute drive I think?

"We'll come with you to grab a ticket and everything." Jennie pulled a small smile, as she looked at me through the rear view mirror.

"Sure." I spoke in a hushed tone, as we all got out of the parked car, heading into the airport.

I could tell by the looks on both their faces, that they didn't want me leaving.

But just as said..

They didn't want to see me ever again.

And so I simply complied.

Once we headed in, we immediately walked over to a section as I scanned the gigantic board that read all the scheduled flights.

All that could be heard was the busy sound of your typical airport, telecoms making sounds occasionally.

But then I spotted something just a distance away.

A boy and a girl were hugging onto each other for dear life, the girl nuzzled to him.

She had been crying, the guy looking as if he had been comforting her.

My eyes softened.

This was obviously one of those cliché scenarios where the girl has to leave and the guy has to stay here, for some reason in the world.

Oh wait.. I'M in that scenario right now.

So maybe I should shut up.

"Oh there. Plane to London is in sect. A24, and it departs in 2 hours and a half. You could still make that one if you line up here for a ticket." Jennie's voice snaps me out of my train of thought.
