Y/n pov:
I spent the morning debating if I should say goodbye to Katie before she leaves this afternoon, I want to but I can't imagine she'll want to see me after yesterday. I just wish it was easier but with Katie training all the time and me still studying like crazy we would barely get any time to talk let alone visit and spend time with each other I don't want that for either of us.
Around 2pm was when I heard the McCabes emerge from their house. I couldn't bring myself to go outside and make it awkward for Katie in front of her entire family so I watched from my bedroom window. I feel awful, all I want is run down there and give her a hug.
Katie's pov:
I knew I should've kept my feelings to myself and never let y/n know all I've done is made things awkward and possibly ruined our friendship. I want to speak to her before I leave so I'm hoping she'll come and say goodbye this afternoon.
Although I regret making things awkward between us I can't take what I said back so I've just got to show y/n that we can make this work.
I had been hoping that y/n might come over before I had to leave but it hit 2pm and I hadn't seen or heard from her, I can almost guarantee that she won't come over when all my family are waving me off she won't want to make a scene.
I wait until after I have said my goodbyes to my family to do what I think feels a bit stalker horror movie like. I stood at her bedroom window and grabbed a small handful of stones, one by one I threw them until I got her attention.y/n pov:
I had moved away from my window a good few minutes ago and was now sprawled across my bed trying to get my mind off of Katie and what was left of our friendship. All of a sudden I heard a tapping, I was home alone so its safe to say I was freaking out a bit. When I realised it was coming from the window I got up to have a look. Katie. It was Katie throwing rocks at my window. Of course it was, I had to stop the smile that was threatening to form on my face.
She waved me downstairs, great this is going to be awkward.She had moved to the front door by the time I moved to unlock it. "Katie I'm sorry I didn't come and say goodbye I didn't want to make you feel uncomfortable around your family" I apologised to her before she could open her mouth I think it took her by surprise. "y/n its ok I understand but really it should be me apologising to you, I'm so sorry for putting you in that situation yesterday. I don't regret what I said though and I need you to know that I'm going to prove to you that we can make this work". She handed me a piece of paper "this is my new address, once I get settled I want you to come and visit I'll show you around and we can spend some time together before the season starts". I didn't know what to say she has clearly thought this through and in a much more positive way than I did. "Katie of course I want to come and visit you I'm just worried we'll hurt each other being so far apart". "Then come with no expectations just come for a mini getaway with no pressure" she really has thought of everything. "Ok I'll come and we can spend some time together" I said with a small smile which only grew when I saw the relief and excitement on Katie's face. I was still so worried that one or both of us was going to end up hurt but I guess you can't be certain that is going to happen if you don't try.
I gave Katie the biggest hug and watched as she walked back up my drive to the taxi waiting to take her to the airport.
I really hope this works out.
