Warning you are going to need a box of tissues while reading this chapter. Sad content.
After the prank I pulled let's just say people laughed, cried, got mad, and I got grounded. I didn't even see the harm in my prank while Ashton did. Ever since my mom left to go back home to Australia Ashton has been my parent figure. He takes this task way too seriously in my opinion and I love him a lot, but sometimes it's just too much. I confronted him once about this and lets just say that conversation didn't go too well.
"Hey Ashton. Can we talk about something?"
"Sure what's up?"
"Can you stop pretending to be my parent and stop being so protective. It's starting to get claustrophobic."
"I'm sorry Bindi. I'm your older brother. It's my job to be protective of you, but you know I'm doing it because I love you."
"I know Ash, but can you like tone it down."
"Sure Bindi. I have a question to ask you as well."
"What is it Ash?"
"When are you going to tell Harry that you have to go back to Australia next week?" I had totally forgotten about that. I didn't really have a time planned when I was going to tell him.
"Ummm I kind of forgot all about that. Honestly I wasn't planning on telling him. I was just planning on leaving. I have had a lot of fun on tour with you guys, but I know I need to get back to reality and my life. This was fun having a relationship with Harry and I know it's going to hurt my heart as much as it will him." I started to sob uncontrollably into Ashton's shirt. He picked me up and sat me down on his lap. He was rubbing my back just comforting me. It took me about 10 minutes until I completely calmed down. I was going to miss everybody. Especially my brother and his friends and all the friends I made on tour. The 1D boys were going to be the hardest to leave. I didn't want to tell them and I made the 5SOS boys promise me not to tell them.
I didn't even realize it was the day I had to leave until Ashton came up to me and told me I had to get to the airport soon. I nodded my head and brought all my stuff out to the rental car. I turned around and I gave everybody a hug. When I got the 5SOS boys I reminded them not to say anything. They nodded their heads and told me that they would miss me. I just reminded them when they got back home I would see them. Since we all lived in the same city in Australia I would see the boys again when they came home to visit their parents.
The drive to the airport was slow and I just wanted to go back home already. This was torture leaving. When we did finally arrive I hugged Ashton and told him to call me and I told him I would call him when I got back home or mum would call him. As I was walking away to the gate assigned for my flight I looked back to see Ashton waving good bye to me. I waved back and walked through the security gates towards my airplane. I was an hour early, so I sat there outside of my gate listening to my phone. When a One Direction song came on I didn't notice that I was crying until someone tapped me on the shoulder and offered me a tissue. I thanked her and wiped my face. I looked at Harry's face there on the album cover and I wondered what he was doing right now? I had been ignoring him and his texts and calls for a week now. I didn't want to see his face knowing that I had to leave him. I admitted to myself that I loved him. He was my soul mate, but all this was not real. It was just a vacation not reality. They had finally called us to board, so I picked my backpack up and walked over to hand over my ticket. The lady scanned it and noticed my red puffy eyes. She just gave me a sympathetic smile when she handed me my ticket back. I walked onto that plane and took my seat telling myself that I couldn't cry. I wouldn't cry. I had to leave to go to university I just had to. I closed my eyes and drifted off to Harry singing their newest song Fireproof with a lone tear falling down my cheek.
When I finally arrived back in Australia I ran into my mums arms. I had missed her so much and dad of course I missed him too. Too bad he was home with my little brother and sister right now. I would have loved to see them all, but I had to talk to mum. She understood from going on tour with us for those couple of weeks how it was between Harry and I. I turned my phone back on from airplane mode to see that I had at least 40 text messages from the 1D boys asking where I was? Then there were the one's from Harry begging me to respond and that he loved me. The only text I sent that day was to Ashton telling him I was home safe and sound. He texted me back a minute later saying that he was happy to hear from me. I locked my phone and put it back into my pocket. Walking out with mum she could tell something was wrong with me.
"Honey what's wrong?"
"It's just I don't know what to do anymore. I left without saying goodbye to any of the One Direction boys. I didn't know how to say goodbye and I didn't want to see their faces. Especially Harry's face. I love him way too much mum. My heart broke when I left and now seeing all of their text messages my heart just rebroke."
"Oh honey I'm so sorry. I'm sorry. Let's get you home." I cuddled into my moms side as we drove home. I was crying so hard my head was starting to hurt. I called Ashton up since he was always the one to comfort me. I looked his number up and I dialed it.
"Hello?"
"Ash?"
"Shit Bindi. Are you okay?"
"No Ash. I love him and I can't do this anymore. I wish you were here with me. I have no friends back home and did I mention I love him. My heart hurts and it feels like someone took it out of my chest and crushed it."
"Oh Bindi. You know I love you, but you gotta do what's right for you. I'm coming home in a couple of weeks. You and I can have a siblings day or I can bring the mates over and we can all have a slumber party or something." I sniffled and told him okay and that I would see him then. By the time we were done talking I didn't even notice mum had pulled up into the driveway and out came my dad and with my little brother and sister running after him. He pulled me in for a hug and then let me go so I could hug my brother and sister.
We all went into the house to have my mum ask if I wanted a good home cooked meal. I nodded my head enthusiastically and waited for her to start on something. Anything she made made me drool. Her food was so good. Much better than tour food. Once it was done and I noticed it was my favorite Veal Parm I took the biggest helping and sat down. I felt so full after three helpings. I excused myself from the table and went upstairs to my room. My bags were already there, but since I was leaving for university tomorrow I just left them packed. I climbed into my comfortable bed that I had missed so much to see I had a final text from Harry. He told me he loved me and to text him back since his heart was breaking and he just wanted to know if I was okay. I texted him a final text saying that I loved him and that I had to leave and to not text me back since I didn't know how much my heart could take today. I locked my phone and cried myself to sleep that night.
Harry's POV
Where was Bindi? Why hasn't she texted me back or texted the lads back? I was sitting in the back room on the couch while the lads were playing FIFA when I felt my heart break. I got up and went to the 5SOS bus. I found them also playing FIFA. What was it with boys and FIFA? I looked around for Ashton spotting him on his phone. I went over to him and sat down next to him.
"Hey Harry. What's up?"
"Have you heard from Bindi?" I saw Ashton's face go blank and pale.
"Yeah she umm she's good."
"Where did she go?"
"I'm sorry I can't tell you. She made us all promise and it's up to her whether or not we can tell you. It's her story to tell." I looked around the room to see the game paused and the boys heads down. I got up and stormed out of the bus going back to our bus. I looked at my phone and decided I would send one final text to her. Tears were pouring down my face as I texted her that. Once I sent it I wasn't expecting a response especially not a minute later.
H: Bindi I love you. My heart breaks to know that you aren't here and that you didn't trust me. Where did you go? Why didn't you say goodbye to the lads and me? I just want to see your face again. You're my whole world. I can't live without you, but I understand that you have your life to live and I have mine. Goodbye love. Don't forget that. I love you so much and I will always love you until the day you die.
B: I love you too Harry. I'm sorry I didn't tell you. I couldn't bear to see your face and the lads faces. Please forget about me please. Start a new life Harry for me. I know I won't be able to forget about you, but we both need to move on. This is the only way that we will be able to go on with our lives. Remember I love you so much and please forget about me.
When I read that text my heart broke again into a million pieces. I was on the ground holding my knees up to my chest when I read that. How could I forget the girl who I love with all my heart? I felt like I was dying on the inside. I heard some movement next to me and I also heard the lads whispering about me.
"How could she do this to me! I love her! How am I going to move on without her? Please lads help me! I don't what I'm going to do. I love her so much! I want her next to me so that I can see her beautful face and smile and hear her beautiful laugh."
"I'm sorry Harry. We all are, but mate she wants you to move on. I know this is going to be hard for you, but like she said you have to move on." Liam our daddy directioner was telling me. I felt arms heave me to my feet and help me walk back to the bus. I ended up collapsing onto my bunk crying myself to sleep that night.
I know this was like the saddest chapter I had to write. I was crying while writing this chapter. Anyway what do you guys think?
