"I'm going to miss you." Boomer admits as we stand in the middle of the airport, close to the place I needed to be in order to board. We had already given my bag to baggage and Boomer had my carryon slung over his shoulder due to him refusing to let me carry anything. He pulls me into a hug and rests his head on top of mine, kissing my forehead a second later. I look up at him and see that he looks genuinely upset that I am leaving the United States but the visa we had only lasts a little longer and I know I need to go home. We both know that I need to go home.

"I'm going to miss you more." I tell him as I lean more into his touch with him hugging me tightly to his chest as if that would stop me from having to go back to the UK. Secretly I know that life is going to be really hard without Boomer since we had learned to live with each other over the last half a year. I was going to miss going to sleep with him and him holding me or his food that he cooks, even if the food was sometimes a little messed up. I was going to miss streaming with him and the banter that went on between the two of us while chat cheered us on, never getting tired of the two of us finally interacting in real life.

"No," Boomer scoffs a little and I laugh lightly as if I wasn't about to cry and step back so there is space between us again. We look at each other for a minute and I swallow whatever words were going to come out of my mouth as he reaches forwards and wipes the tears from my cheeks. I giggle a little and lean into his touch which makes him smile some more then before. "It's been a good few months." He says with a small chuckle and I reach out to take my bag from his hands, throwing it over my shoulder knowing that I have my chargers and laptop in it. I plan on doing some editing for a new YouTube video for my channel but know that I will probably end up sleeping.

"Just good?" I challenge him teasingly and he rolls his eyes, pulling me off to the side and away from the crowds of people who were walking to their gates around the airport. I tilt my head confused but can't help but giggle a little when he takes his hoodie off and hands it to me, his cheeks turning slightly pink. I take it with a grin, happy that he remembered that I liked his sweatshirts more then any I would ever get from a shop.

"Amazing." Boomer tells me and I grin happily as I throw the hoodie over my shoulders, it being way too big for me but I love it anyways. I snuggle into it and throw the hood up before looking back to Boomer who is looking at me as if he were a lovestruck puppy. "I love you Dee." He tells me a second later, pulling me into another hug and kissing my forehead as he holds me tighter then he has ever before. I feel my heart break a little because I don't want to leave him, I want to stay here but I know that logically that is impossible. I have a life back home, my brother and my family, I have my apartment and my pc. I can't just decide on a whim that I'm going to move across the world.

"I love you too." I tell him with a soft smile and he laughs a little and I rest my head against his chest. It feels like time stops as I close my eyes and stay in the warmth that he provides against the chilly airport air conditioning. The buzz of the airport and the lady announcing my flight leaving in five minutes.

"Will you come back?" Boomer asks once the lady is done announcing everything and I look up at him, seeing that there is what can only be described as desperation in his eyes. I shift my weight a little, not sure how to respond or even if I know how I feel about moving across the ocean but he tilts my head up so I can meet his gaze again. "For me?" He adds with a soft smile that says that he isn't forcing me into saying yes, that I would come back to the United States but that he would really like for me to come back and move in with him, not for traveling or visiting but rather to actually live with him and be with him permanently.

"Yeah," I nod a little, knowing that it's probably selfish of me to decide this right now and here and that my family would probably kill me but the idea of being with Boomer isn't bad. I think that a few people would understand and our audiences would love it but still, I would have to talk to my family and get everything settled before I can give him any solid response. "Yeah, I'll try." I tell him and he smiles a little brighter at my answer before holding out his pinky finger and I tilt my head to the side.

"Promise?" He asks with a teasing grin across his face and I roll my eyes with a smile quickly crossing my face as well at such a childish way of him trying to get me to come back to the States and live with him.

"Promise." I say and lock out pinkies together before he pulls me into another tight hug and I laugh a little. "Bye Boomer." I tell him once we get to my gate and I stand up on my toes, pressing a kiss to his lips which he quickly returns and I smile. He doesn't say anything but smiles as I turn my back on him and cross through the gate, ready to go back to the UK.
