Today was the day. This is the day that Harry was leaving. He kept trying to tell me that he was only going to be gone for a couple of months, maybe less. I couldn't handle that fact though.

Currently, I was blubbering about and trying to stay strong at the same time. Harry told me he would call me every chance he got and stay in touch with me. I don't think that will be enough.

"Allison! Stop blubbering about and be strong. Harry already has enough stress on his shoulders right now!" Gemma scolded me.

I looked her in the face and she had a frown set on her face. I frowned at her and stuck my tongue out. One thing I kept with through the years. Sticking my tongue out at serious moments.

Gemma scowled even more and looked away. I turned back to Harry and his eyes were glassed over with unshed tears. My eyes immediantly watered back up just looking at him. I flung my arms around him and blubbered into his chest.

Harry wrapped his arms around me and rubbed my back soothingly. He whispered weird things into my ear until I started laughing and pulled away. I wiped my eyes and looked at him. He ran a hand through his hair, already expecting a lecture from me.

As soon as I opened my mouth, he had already started talking. A very bored and annoyed look on his face. I frowned immediantly at him.

"Allison Maria Styles. I do not need to hear you lecture me again. I have already heard it several times today," Harry started.

I opened my mouth to go and lecture him anyway. He put his hand up in front of me. I turned to look at Gemma and she was trying to stiffle laughter. I glared at Harry and crossed my arms. I even added a little foot stomp.

"Ally, I will make sure to call you and mum every chance I get. I'll even video call you when I can. I promise. You're like my other half. I won't go and forget you. Even if you are a blubbering idiot most of the time. You cry at the dumbest times! I understand you getting upset and sad right now. Why are you crying? I still have a little until I leave! Ally, I love you and I won't forget you. Now, let me go finish packing!" Harry demanded, getting flustered and angry.

I nodded my head and looked at my feet like they were the most interesting thing in the world. Harry laughed and ruffled my hair before leaving the room. I turned to Gemma and she was glaring at me. No surprise there.

"You do realise he is coming back to us, you blubbering idiot?"  Gemma asked.

"Gemma, I realise this. I just - I don't know. I don't want him to leave," I said.

"Blubbering idiot. He is leaving. We knew he was going to for all of a year now. You've had time to get over it," Gemma glared and left the room as well.

I sighed and checked the time. Almost time to take him to the airport. I slipped into a pair of sandals and turned my frown into a fake smile. Harry came back into the room and he had a few bags with him.

He took one look at my face and dropped his bags. He stepped closer to me and engulfed me in a hug. My fake smile faltered a little as I embraced him back. He patted my back.

"You are not coming to the airport with Gemma and I. I'll make sure to do all that I promised and return safely to you. I would let you come with us but you are still being a blubbering idiot. Fake smiles will not work," Harry basically growled.

I let go of him and stepped away. Gemma was walking out the front door, keys in hand. I frowned at Harry and felt my eyes water again. I started blubbering like the blubbering idiot I am as Harry grabbed his bags. He stepped toward the door and gripped his bags in hand.

"Goodbye blubbering idiot. I love you."

With those words Harry left the household and I ran for my room. I had a bag of things sitting on my bed along with a bunch of movies. I closed my door and stepped towards it. My pajama's were laid out on my bed. I changed into them and grabbed a letter that wad folded underneath it.

Idiot,

I bought a bunch of chocolate and a selection of movies for you. I knew you would be a blubbering idiot like you always are so, I prepared. The chocolates should last a week. When you empty them, Mom has money to buy you more to last a year. Though, she is has strict rules to only buy chocolates once a week. If you run out of movies, you know where I keep the rest. Be good and stop blubbering. I'll call you shortly.

Harry.

I laughed and picked up a movie, putting it in the DVD player and starting it up. I don't even know what movie it was. I just know I didn't pay attention and instead waited for my phone to ring.

When it did, an unfamilar number flashed across the screen. I quickly answered the call.

"Hello?" I asked.

"I landed safely blubbering idiot," the voice answered.

"Harry!" I squealed.
