Just Friends

Part 28

*3 months later*
Spring break is just around the corner. Michael didn't come back since that day, but you did keep in touch with him. Their band is now touring all around Australia, doing small town gigs. You couldn't be happier for him and for his success. You and Niall are finally and exclusively dating, and he just moved in your room without telling the manager. Niall is planning to take you to Ireland for spring break, you agreed to go and immediately had your visa taken care of. But before that, you went back home to see how Michael's band is doing, and to drop by your house. Niall brought you to Melbourne International Airport. "See you in a week?" He says, kissing your lips. "Yup." You reply against his lips. "I love you." Niall says. "I love you too." You reply, turning your back on him. It's good to finally see the people you miss the most. The flight to Sydney is only for a few hours. As you got your baggages settled in, you waited for your parents in the arrivals area, only to be greeted by the four dorks you haven't seen in ages. You ran to Michael and immediately clung your body to his, wrapping your legs around his waist, and your arms around his neck. "Wow, okay. So she doesn't miss us one bit." Ashton says, pouting. You immediately got off Michael and hugged each one of them tightly. Calum gave you a cute little teddy bear as a welcome home present. "Well, I'm hearing about you guys all the way from Melbourne." You say, expressing your congrats. "That's great. I'm sure you'll get big one day." Michael snickers, "I'm already big." He jokes. The lads burst into a fit of laughter. "Whatever, Clifford." You say, pushing your baggage towards Ashton's car. "Thanks for fetching me. I take it my parents are again, unavailable?" You say. "Nope. They were actually on their way, but I specifically asked if I could come get you." Michael says. As you got into the car, you can't help but feel how normal everything is again. And how you miss that feeling, especially with Michael.
