"I don't wanna leave, I'll miss you guys so much, oh my gosh, i wish this will never end. Bye guys...bye" I waved and once we entered the car, we both let out a sigh.
"Drive and never look back" I ordered and he drove out out of there with the entourage slowly behind.
Letting out a sigh, I fell back on the seat. "Is the commissioner wooing your mom?" Travis asked and I bursted out laughing.
"You noticed that?"
"Any one with eyes did" he replied. "He might be" I answered and glanced out the window to the field all around us. "Thank you" I appreciated, turning to him.
"Is there someone else in this car?" He inquired, glancing back. "Don't be silly. You stuck by my side through out the event, paying heed to everything I instructed, so thank you. Honestly, I didn't know you were capable of listening"
He smirked, eyes on the road. He didn't give a reply but I knew he acknowledged my appreciation. I sighed and leaned back on the seat, it's Monday and we were heading back to our normal life.
As much as I'd love to hide out here for a while, I knew it would have to end and I'll have to face reality. I had to get back to work and so did he.
We arrived the hanger in no time and I got down, there was Harrison and Jeffrey waiting for us. Travis shut the car and went to speak to them while I stood there and waited.
I can't believe we made it through the weekend without talking about work, it wasn't our life after all.
He signalled Jeffrey and he came and pulled the car open for me. I glanced back at him and he stopped and turned back to me too. "I'll be back early" he promised and I nodded before getting back into the car.
I watched as he walked up into the jet and we drove out. I never did care if he left or if he got back but today was different.

I got out the next dress from my closet and was genuinely frustrated. None of this dresses were good enough for tonight, It was a charity event.
I needed to look good, very good. My phone began ringing and I got it out and answered, "so, because I dumped your cousin, you don't call me anymore?"
"Good afternoon to you to, Hillary" I answered, sitting on the bed. "What's up?"
"Are you checking on me or Justin?" I inquired, "well?" She asked back and I chuckled. "Well, I won't know because I haven't seen him since after the break up"
"Really?"
"Yeah, even the 3 days trip we just had, he didn't show up, neither did Jake" I replied. "Oh my gosh, did I hurt him that much?"
"Oh maybe, he is just busy in Brazil. How are things in London?" I asked and she lets out a sigh, "I'm back to my everyday life here and I'm stuck! I miss LA and all the events and fun"
"You can always visit again"
"Can I?" She asked. "Of course, the house is always open. I mean, yeah the family still hates you but it's all good "
"Gosh, I ruined LA" She groaned and I chuckled. "Anyways, how's you and Travis?"
"We're good, there is an event this evening, I'm preparing " I answered. "Oh, I forgot the hottest couple ever" she commented and I smiled.
"I gotta go Hillary, we will talk later, promise" with that I ended the call and headed into my closet.
Moments later, I stepped out all in a blue sparkling dress with an open back and with the hands over my back, strings down my bare back. "What about this one, Evelyn?" I asked and her eyes lit up.
