Young Volcanos

June 9 (later)

We were driving to the Fort Lauderdale airport.

"So Riley, why are we going to do when we get there?" Chloe asked.

"Yeah, what's the plan?" Nessy asked.

I snorted, "Me? A plan? Have you met me? We're winging it."

Taylor laughed and rolled her eyes, "Somehow I'm not surprised."

I grinned and winked.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

We pulled up to the airport's pick up and drop off area. I hopped out if the convertible without opening up the door and Taylor followed.

"Chloe, get in front and drive, I'll call you when we're done!" Chloe and Nessy jumped in front and drove off. Taykor and I booked it into the airport.

I caught sight of Jordan's tall build and brown hair on an escalator. I ran as fast as I could and ran up the escalator. I didn't see him anywhere. I told Taylor to run to the right. We both went down the right hallway. I looked over my shoulder and saw Taylor run into a man and fall. "Taylor!" I yelled and ran back.

"I'm fine." She let me know.

I pulled her up and turned around. I came face to face with Jordan. I side stepped and let him face Taylor.

"Taylor?" Jordan asked.

"Hi." Taylor blushed and looked at her shoes, "So... I had this big speech planned about how I loved you and I had been stupid but knowing me, I completely forgot it."

She breathed in and looked at him full on. "Do you remember when I made you watch Ariel for the first time?"

He nodded, "And you told me that I looked more like a mermaid then she did because of my hair. I had laughed. Then two days later you told me that you had a major surprise for me."
"Then you drove me to the lagoon and showed me that you had rented a row boat and you took me out in it and I felt like a princess. Then you said something funny and I laughed and you did too. I realized then and there that I could never let you go. I loved you. I still do. But I was stupid, I ended it with you because I was mad that you hadn't told me and... I'm sorry. You taking me back is impossible because... well, you deserve better."

I watched as a single tear fell from her face and landed on the floor. I watched Jordan as he looked back to a woman, a man, and an older boy. All of them with the same light brown hair and lightly tanned skin; his family.

He turned back to Taylor and then grinned, he picked her up and spun her around. He smiled at her and then kissed her.

Taylor was smiling brilliantly, "But...."

"I'm moving?" He finished her sentence.

She nodded and he pulled her chin to look at him, "Taylor Marie Hillson, If I ever were such an idiot to forget the most amazing, talented, and beautiful person I've ever met, well then I would be exactly that; an idiot."

Taylor laughed but then she looked concerned again, "But you'll still be gone."

"I'll work every day. I'm coming back this summer. You're still my girlfriend. I'm not just letting it go."

She just smiled. I heard someone call Jordan's name and he looked over.

"I have to go." Jordan said sadly.

Taylor smiled glumly. He pulled her in for a hug and she gripped him in a death grip. He smiled again and ran off. She had tears running down her face. I saw her face from sad to determined. "Wait!" She yelled and ran after him. He turned around and opened his arms just in time to catch her as she jumped in his arms.

She kissed him and pulled back smiling. "Remember that and come back."

He smiled, "I have to now."

She hugged him again and waved him off. "Go break girl's hearts in Washington for me since you're taken."

He laughed, "That I am."

He hugged her again, "I love you Taylor."

She sighed, "I love you too."

He smiled and walked into the security area, not once taking his eyes off of her, and then he was gone.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

The whole way home Taylor was quiet. She seemed in awe of the fact that she had gotten him back and also in awe that he was gone.

They dropped me off and I walked inside my house.

I didn't know what to do next. I felt terrible about Logan but I would just have to let him go.

"Piece of cake." I muttered.
