Chapter 41: covoncing her :)

Hailey's POV
Sadly today is Faith's flight. These 5 days have flown by and I'm sad that she has to leave already. I missed having her around so much and I don't want her to go home. When we're together she feels like home. In my life I have only every managed to feel that a couple times, with faith, with Jay and with the intelligence unit. I like having them all as one big thing. I like having her be apart of my world. I know that I get to see her in my holidays when we visit each other but to be honest I just hate our goodbyes. It's always the saddest part of our friendship, the constant 'goodbye' and 'see you later'. It breaks our hearts.

I'm sitting on the bed whilst she packs her bag. She's starting to fold her clothes up and I feel sad. "Please stay just for one more week" I beg as I look up to her. "Hailey I don't know maybe I should head back, besides you and Jay don't need me bothering you" she sighs. "Your not bothering us. Please this is like the first time in ages that I have properly got to spend with you" I say. "I know and it's been amazing but-" "Please fay, I really love having you around." I beg. She looks up at me abs rolls her eyes. "Fine one more week" she smiles. "Ahh thank you" I say excitedly as I jump up and hug her.

"We are gonna have to make sure you are around a lot more often" I whisper to her. She chuckles. "Well you never know, if I love Chicago again then maybe I will move my clinic here." She says. I let go of her and look at her. "Are you serious?" I ask shocked, "yeah I mean hails, your here, my whole family's here, it makes sense" she says happily. I feel myself nearly burst into tears. She will stay and she won't leave. I pull her back into my tight embrace squeezing her. "I'm guessing your happy about that?" She giggles. "Very" I say happily.

"Right what are we gonna do then?" She asks "how about a movie?" I ask "sounds perfect" she chuckles. "Good, let's go" I say as I wrap my arm around her waist and pull her out of the room. I turn the light off and close the door before we rush down to the couch. Jay comes down with a couple of blankets. "Thought you guys might want some" he smiles as he passes them. We grab a bunch of blankets and we each select a space on the couch.

I pull Jay down to sit next to me in the corner. Faith squeeze next me causing me to be in the middle. She cuddles into me as we get comfortable and I rest my head on Jays shoulder. He starts to go through the different channels while Faith sits here saying 'no' practically to all of them. I feel myself smile as I think about what Faith said. She could move to Chicago and we could do this as many days as we wanted. This is how life should be, this is how I want my life to be forever. My best friend and my fiancé by my side.

*Sorry that this chapter is so short but I'm just trying to get back into the swing of it. I will probably come back and add more to this later on. But for now the next couple of chapters will not be edited so if there are mistakes just try to ignore them. I'll try my best to get quicker at writing these. Sorry for any inconvenience X*
