Ends With You (A Michael Clifford FanFic)

Chapter 69

Sarah's POV

The next morning I had all my stuff packed up, and we were all ready to walk out the door. I was in the bathroom doing breathing exercises , I was ready to start hyperventilating. This was so hard, seeing everybody so sad about me leaving for the second time. I just wanted to throw my arms around them and tell them the truth, but I couldn't do that. I took a deep breath and exited the bathroom, trying to look sad.

" You ready babe?" Michael asked, his face nearly killed me. He had dried tears on his face and his eyes were all red, he looked like an abused puppy.

" Yeah.. I'm ready." I whispered, taking his hand and intertwining our fingers.We walked out the door with Karen, Alli and Matt following us. Alli was a total mess, she was trying to hold in her sobs and every few minutes she would make weird choking sounds, trying to hold her tears in. If this was what it was like when I left for real... I didn't even want to think about it, it made me want to throw up.

The limo ride there was dead quiet. Nobody said a word, the adults were taking it better then us, Karen and Matt just sitting silently, staring out the window. It felt like the whole world was pressing on my rib cage. I just wanted to scream it hurt so bad. Everybody else were in cars behind us following.

" Michael I'm scared." I whispered, squeezing his hand tighter.

" So am I." he admitted. I wasn't scared of leaving I was scared that my plan wouldn't work and things would never get better between us. I closed my eyes and laid my head on Michael's shoulder, trying to get some much needed sleep.

Michael's POV

Sarah laid her head on my shoulder and her breathing evened out after awhile and I knew she was asleep. I sighed and pushed the hair out of her face. I hated it when Sarah was scared and I couldn't do anything about it, I knew she wasn't scared of leaving she was scared of her plan. I had to admit it was pretty risky. If the others really DIDN'T want to talk to us again... this was all going to end in disaster.

When we got to the airport I gently shook Sarah awake.

" Sarah Angel, were here." I whispered.

" Oh alright." she said, stretching. I helped her out of the car and went around to get her "luggage". It had began to rain on the ride here and we were all getting slightly wet. 2 cars pulled up behind ours. Calum and Andrea got out of the first one, Luke, Makayla, Celine and ashton got out of the other.

Sarah's POV

Michael helped me unload my bags onto the wet pavement. I watched as the others got out of the 2 limos behind us. I could feel the tension build as we all came together. Nobody said anything, I didn't think they would. I headed towards the sliding glass doors of the airport and entered, the others following.

My gate number was 23 and we had just passed gate 22. I took a deep breath and tried to gather my thoughts. There were so many thoughts running through my mind right now. When Terminal 23 was in view, everything was wiped from my mind and everything went quiet.... almost peaceful for once, it was the still silence before the storm

I set my bags down and turned to the others, they had all started to cry on the walk here. It made tears well up in my eyes but I pushed them down, time to set my plan into action.

" So you all came to say goodbye... that's it?" I asked, nobody moved to hug me and say goodbye, I knew they had all come with some sort of hope that things would be made right again.

" Or did you all come hoping that some how things would be made right between us?" I had caught their attention now, and they were all looking at me with tear filled eyes.
