This was the last show of the tour. Let me fill you in. Ted and I's relationship has been going strong this whole time. He's such a sweetheart. I've called Mia EVERY night since our last concert together, which was Teddy's second show of the tour. That was so long ago. Luke, Calum, and I are a lot closer now and we kept in touch through FaceTime. Speaking of Luke he and Mia are really serious. Luke never shuts up about her. NEVER. As for Michael...he still makes an effort. He texts saying 'goodnight' every night before bed. No 'I love you,'or no hearts, nothing. Just a simple 'goodnight.'
Today is the day I go back to Sydney and Teddy goes back to his family. It's been almost a year since Mia and I pulled that prank on Teddy at his second concert. We were on a plane right now. I'm so nervous about seeing Michael again for the first time in forever. I intertwined my fingers with Ted's.
"I'm nervous."
"About what?" He asked.
"Michael." I admitted.
I felt his muscles tense up for a second but then relax.
"You'll be fine." He reassured me.
I looked over to him. He's so sweet. What in the world did I do to deserve him? God please help me make him happy, he deserves it more than anyone in the world.

Ed was dropping me off at Luke's house. I planted a kiss on his lips and hugged him.
"I'm going to miss you." I said.
He pulled back and wiped my tears away.
"It'll only be for a little while," he smiled, "I'll see you in three weeks."
My smile dropped at the 'three weeks' part. How am I going to be away from Teddy for three weeks? When he saw my expression he brought me in for another hug. I wrapped my arms around his neck and he put his around my waist.
He laughed, "Okay Keely. We're making a scene in your friends driveway."
I chuckled too. I kissed him once more before he got in his car and left. I turned back around towards Luke's house about to break down when I saw Ash standing there.
"ASHLEY!" I yelled and ran towards him.
"KIKI!" He screamed and ran towards me. It was like one of those funny clichès were the best friends ran towards each other but bumped heads. Except Ash and I didn't bump heads, I jumped into his arms and wrapped my legs around his torso.
"I missed you."
"I missed you so much Keely." He whispered.
"Hey there is no partying without Lukie and CalPal." Luke said coming out his front door Calum following behind. I let go of Ashton and hugged Calum. And Luke.
"Hey guys."
"Hey Keely." They said and I smiled. Wow, back home.
"Where's Mia?" I asked.
"Oh she's visiting her Mum." Luke smiled.
That boy is head over heels for her, it's almost funny.
We all filed into Luke's house. I grinned at the familiar setting I walked into.
"I gotta use the bathroom." I stated. They all nodded as I found my way to the bathroom. I miss Teddy already. I wish I could hug hi-
I bumped into someone in the hallway. I looked up to see someone with blue hair in the hallway.
"Keely?"
Michael. Michael Gordon Clifford. After about a year of being away from him, I bump straight into him almost falling over in the process.
"Michael?"
He nodded.
He sighed, "I-"
I just brought him into a really tight hug. I missed him and it's just now I'm realizing it. I started to cry, a lot. I heard Michael calming me and smoothing his hand over my hair.
I let out a strangled sob. I hope no one can hear me crying.
"I hate you so much Michael. I'm a bet?! You cheated three times! I hate you so much Michael!"
"Shhh, I know. You have every right to hate me." He said slight swaying us in our hug.
Everything once silent for a long time but once I recovered from crying I spoke up.
"I can try to pretend to hate you. But Michael," I pulled away from our long hug and looked up at him, "I will never ever hate you."
