Puzzle Pieces (A Hunter Hayes Fanfiction)

Locking That In There For A Month

**Ella's POV**
Hunter leaves for tour tomorrow.
He's all packed up and ready to go.

"Ella?" He called from the bedroom.
"Yeah?"
"Can you come here please?" He asked me.
I walked up the stairs and into the bedroom.
"What's up?" I asked him.
"Can you help me?" He chuckled, holding up two different shirts that he was obviously having difficulties with.
"Yeah," I laughed at him.
"Which one is red?" He asked me.
"That one is blue. That one is green," I laughed at him and got a red shirt from the closet.
"Here," I laughed at him and threw the red shirt at him.
"Where do you wanna go for dinner?" He asked while he put the shirt on.
"Anywhere is fine," I smiled at him.
"Alright let's go," he took my hand and we walked down stairs and to the car.
He opened my door, then ran around to his side.
We went to a little diner and ate dinner.
After dinner we walked around town.
Our hands were intertwined and I was starting to get worried.
"Hunter?"
"Yeah, Ell?"
"Are you sure this is okay? Us holding hands in public?" I asked him shyly.
"I want everyone to know you're mine," he smiled at me.
I smiled back and laid my head on his shoulder.
We went back to the house after a while and laid in bed.
I laid my head on his chest and he played with my hair.
"This is our last night like this for a while," I whispered to him.
"Yeah, but let's not think about that right now, Ell," he whispered back.
"I love you, Hunt,"
"I love you too, Ell,"
I fell asleep on his chest for the last time for three months.
I was gonna miss him like crazy.

"You have two have ten minutes," Betsey called from the bus that was parked in front of our house.
We stood on our front porch, my arms wrapped around his neck and his hands on my waist.
He pushed me up against the front door and kissed me.
I kissed him with force, knowing this was going to be our last kiss for three months.
That broke my heart but I knew that this was what Hunted had been wanting for so long.
He has waited for this moment, and it's finally being handed to him.
"I love you, so, so, so much," he said weakly after I pulled away from his lips.
"I love you too," I whispered weakly, blinking back tears.
He pulled me into his chest and kissed the top of my head.
"You have to go now, don't you?" I whispered.
"Yeah," he whispered in my hair.
I pulled away from our hug and said goodbye to him.
"I love you," he whispered as he walked away.
"I love you, too," I whispered before walking into the house.
And just like that, he slipped away.
He was gonna be thousands of miles away.
And that broke my heart.

**Hunter's POV**
I walked down the steps and to the bus.
Saying goodbye to her was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do.
I walked onto the bus and went to the back lounge where Sam was.
"Hey man, you alright?" He asked me as I sat down.
"Yeah," I said as I took the box out of my pocket and put it in the drawer.
"Locking that in there for a month?" He chuckled at me.
"Yeah. One month," I smiled to myself.
