I got up the next morning in an empty room. I was heartbroken. I automatically regretted the choice I made of leaving. it was 5:00 and it was time to get ready to leave. I quickly threw on my moon and sun halter top , some light jeans and my flats. Everything was packed so I had time to sit and do my makeup and hair. By the time I was done I had a slicked back pony and smoky eye. It was 5:45 time to head the the airport. I got into the backseat of the car with my brothers and headed out. Driving away from the house I was starting to cry. There was so many memories.

     "So , grandmama has your room set up already.I think this will be good for you baby. I think it's good you spend some time with Grandmama." My mom smiled grabbing my knee and wiping her tears.

   "yeah. I think it's going to be great." I smiled back.

I had a silent dad in the front trying not to cry and two baby brothers next to me holding my hands.

    We arrived.

"Alright..." My dad held open his arms and gave me a huge hug.

    "Dad! It will be okay. I will be home for thanksgiving with grandmama. I want to go back before Christmas though I want to be in NY for Christmas." I Smiled pushing away from him.

    "Honey. I am so proud of you." My mom pinched my cheeks and kissed them.

   "Thank you mom."

I squatted down to the floor and held out my arms for the 4 year old twins. They rushed me and kissed my cheeks at least 40 times.

   "I love you both so much. Behave okay?" I smiled, crying.               "We love you too pickle." They both said.

     It was so heartbreaking seeing my family like this but I knew it was best for me and for them.

   I watched them turn to leave and sat and waited for my plane. I don't know what I was expecting to happen next.

   "Impossible." I said out loud laughing at my thoughts of jack walking in with my favorite flowers.

     "Anything is possible." Someone replied.

  It was Jack and there he was holding sunflowers and roses for me. I couldn't believe it.

  "You know , I realized what an ass I've been lately and I hate it. So these are both for you. And I got up at 5 just to come and say my last goodbye." He handed me the flowers , "In fact. This is just a hello if you give me another chance. I understand if you don't but I really miss you and I really want to be with yo-"

I cut him off with a kiss on the cheek.

   "Jack. Of course." I threw my arms around his neck as he spun me in a circle.

He put me down , "Dylan. I don't know what I'm going to do without you." He wiped my tears and kissed me so much more passionately than the night at the park.

    "FLIGHT 125 , FLIGHT 125."

"Jack that's my flight." I smiled at him wiping my face, "I have to go. I'll face time you when I'm settled in okay?"

    "Alright." He kissed me one last time, "Dylan..."

  "What?" I asked grabbing my flowers and belongings and heading towards the boarding area.

   "I love you." He smiled at me and looked at the ground.

    "I love you too Jack." I laughed and ran a little to make sure I made it there in time.

Once the plane took off I saw him looking through the window at the plane , but I knew he didn't see me. My heart was full , yet broken but I couldn't ask for it to be any other way.

The plane landed and it was 6 p.m. I saw my grandmama waiting for me.

    "Hey darling." The tiny woman stood on her tippy toes just to peck my cheek.

   "Hey grandmama. I'm so excited to explore with you!" I hugged her.

   "Well I know this awesome Italian place , I'll take you after you settle in okay?" She grabbed one of my bags.

    "Okay grandmama."

  I put my stuff in the trunk of her car and hopped in the  passenger seat , sitting on Roscoe her yorkie.

    "Oh Roscoe! I am so sorry baby roscoe." I kissed his little nose and my grandma drove off.

    By the time I got home with my grandma it was around midnight so I wasn't sure if Jack would pick up when I facetimed him.

    "Hey baby!" I was treated with a smiling Johnson.

    "Johnson get out of here and let me talk to my Jack!" I laughed

    "Ooooh , G , you gotta feisty one." He slapped Jack's ass as he ran away.

    We both laughed, "Is he okay?" I asked.

    "Is Johnson ever okay?" Jack replied.

   "Thats true , so uh. I'll be home for thanksgiving so like three months... I think?"

  "Well I'll be in NYC in like  a week or so." He smiled at me.

"Jack what?!" I smiled even wider.

   "Yeah, I mean , why not? My girl is there. So I'll come see you that way we have a longer conversation and not just 5 minutes and a kiss before you leave."

     I grabbed my new pillows and screamed into them.

   "Okay babe." I giggled.

We talked for about three hours so I didn't get much sleep but, it was totally worth it. We were back together and he would be here in a week.
