We go through check in and all the other places we needed to go through.

Finally, we arrive at the boarding gates, an attendant telling that the boys' plane was boarding though the speakers.

"We'll see ya soon little sis," Michael says, patting the top of my head.

"See you soon big bro." I laugh sadly.

"I'll miss you, Ad." Ashton says, sniffing, giving me a hug.

"I'll miss you too, dimples" I say, hugging him back.

"Bye Addie" Calum nods, smiling, giving me a bro fist and Naty gives the rest of her good byes to the boys.

"Well, I guess this is it." Luke says.

"I guess it is." I shrug, tears threatening to spill, but I blink them away.

"I'll really really miss you, Addison."

"I'll really miss you too Lukey." I say, my voice shaking.

"Hey, don't cry," he says, wiping away a tear I didn't know left my eye. Though he looked like he was close to tears himself.

"Here," he says handing me a small black box with a ribbon wrapped around it.

He opens it revealing a gorgeous necklace with a thin silver chain. It had a diamond incrusted heart in the middle and looked expensive as hell.

"Luke, it's beautiful, but I can't—" I start to say but he covers my mouth with his hand.

"Don't argue, remember?" he says. I sigh as he removes his hand from my mouth.

He pushes my hair to one side and places the necklace around my neck.

"Luke, it's gorgeous. Thank you."

I look at him, smiling. He nods handing me another smaller box.

"What's this?" I say, slowly taking it from him. I open a box and see a pendant looking thing. It was shaped into the Earth with a small airplane on it.

"It's another charm for your bracelet."

I smile at him. "Why this charm though?"

"So that you wouldn't forget that it will always be you, wherever you are."

"You're making a preference to your own song," I giggle.

He chuckles, nodding. He takes the charm and attaches it to my charm bracelet.

"Luke...it's beautiful. Thanks, it was really sweet of you."

"Your welcome, princess." he grins, but it falters as the attendant, who I started to find annoying, began speaking through the speakers again.

Luke hugs me and I hug back, as tight as I can.

"Hey Adten?" he says, his voice muffled from putting his mouth on my head.

"Hmmm?"

"I love you. Don't ever forget that okay? Just... don't"

I take his face in my hands. "I love you too Lukey."

He places his lips on mine. I tangle my finger into his hair and he places his hands on my back.

This is the last time I'll ever see him in months. I push myself unimaginably close to him as possible, until we finally break the kiss, breathless.

"Bye, Addison Kirsten Porter." Luke says, a few tears of his tears spilling out, but he quickly wipes them away.

I don't get why guys don't like crying in front of girls.

I rub my thumb on his cheek. "Bye, Luke Robert Hemmings. I'll see you soon."

I take one last look at his ocean blue eyes, as he turns away and runs towards the boys who were handing their plane tickets to the attendant.

Finally, the four boys who were my best friends disappeared behind the airport doors.

// Luke //

I entered the plane, an empty feeling in my chest.

All I could think about was how I wouldn't be able to see Addison for months.

Yeah, we'd FaceTime or Skype each other, but It wouldn't be the same.

We hand our tickets to the attendant, and she leads us to the private part at the very back of the plane, just for the boys and me. It was sort of a secluded area, a curtain separating us from the rest from the passengers.

We didn't like being separated from the rest, but management decided it was best.

"Bro, you alright there?" Calum nudges my arm with his elbow as we get settled in our seats.

"Yeah." I mumble, putting my seatbelt on as the light flickers above us.

A couple of minutes later, the plane begins to take off. I look out the window, looking as the glistening city lights of Los Angeles disappears below us.

Don't get me wrong, I loved touring, meeting fans and performing, but all I could think about right now was my girlfriend who I was leaving behind.

Grabbing the Beats Addie had given me for my birthday from my bag, I put them on my ears, and connect it to my iPhone, Blink-182 pounding into my ears. And I don't take them off for the rest of the flight.

Hey you guyyys <3
