Living the dream

Leaving America.

-- time skip to Thursday (the day before Evie and Skye leave) --

"I can't believe we leave tomorrow" I said to Skye

"I know I'm going to miss this place so much!!! It's been amazing, butttt then again I can't wait to see Jack!" She replied whist jumping up and down. I don't know, how she can be so hyperactive sometimes.

She turned around to finish packing all of her clothes (and packets of Cheetos) into her bag. I smiled cheekily to myself because Jack and I had planned a surprise for her when she got back!! I was so excited to see the expression on her face when she found out, it would be fabulous! :)

"Are you going to miss Joe?" She asked me

"to be honest I don't know how I'm going to survive without him?!" My smile changing into a frown

"Hey..." She came over and hugged me "you helped me and put up with me this week when I was missing Jack, so now I shall help you"

"Thanks Skye" I said softly "I'm going to go finish packing and go over to see the guys ... Wanna come?"

"Sure"

"Okay see you in 10"

--over at Joe and Caspars house--

Caspar's POV

"So, how are you feeling about eves leaving?" I asked Joe

"Upset... I know I will survive but it will be difficult without her by my side" he replied

"Or in your bed" I laughed

"Oh shut up" he joked tackling me to the ground

"Stappppp stappppp please" I shouted acting as if he was hurting me ... He wasn't but it made him laugh.

After a few minutes of silence he asked me "so did you talk to Nathan?"

"Yea.." I replied looking down at the floor

"Did you sort things out?"

"Mhmm"

"Are you back together?"

"Nope"

"Do you know for sure if you like boys or girls?"

"Kinda.... I mean I think I went out with Nathan because I felt loved by someone... After the whole thing with Skye and me being a jerk I was just feeling really depressed and Nathan made me feel loved and better Yanno?"

"Yeah I get it."

"You and Skye are friends now tho right?"

"Yeah of course.. I think after we had sorted it all out it really brought us closer as friends which is good!"

"Okay cool well perhaps your bi? Cus like if you find the right girl, then you would date her wouldn't you?"

"Yeahhhh"

"But if you found the right boy you would date him too wouldn't you? Not at the same time obviously"

"Yeah definitely not at the same time but I guess so"

That really helped me... I guess Joe just explained exactly what I was feeling but in a way that everyone would understand... I'm bisexual ... Not gay (yet because I don't know if I will find the right guy or not) and I'm not straight either...
I guess it works :)

"Thanks Joe" I told him

"For what?" He replied

"Helping me figure out what I really am feeling... I guess I just needed someone to say it to me for me to understand it myself..."

"That's alright buddy, any time! Now Evie and Skye are coming over soon to hang out one last time and I was thinking that we order pizza"

"YESSSSSSSSS" I practically screamed, before running around the house like a little kid.

Evie's POV
A short while later, I arrived at Joe's house. I knocked on the door with Skye stood next to me for the last time and Joe opened it. I literally jumped on him and wrapped my legs around his waist and hugged him tight as he whispered

"I miss you already" into my ear

"I miss you too" I stifled out a laugh as he put me down

"Okay so now you are here.... WE ARE JUST WAITING ON THE BLOODY PIZZA " Caspar said staring down at his invisible watch

"Calm down man" Joe said to him jokingly

"Only 3 minutes left and it will be free... Damn I love America! That would never happen in England?!!" Caspar replied

"Okay okay we get it" I laughed

The door bell rang 5 minutes later which meant that we had a free pizza which was still kinda hot...

"It's going to be weird without you guys just down the road..." Caspar said sadly with a mouth full of pizza

"Yeah we will miss you guys so much!!!" Skye said to them

"Well we will definitely have another pizza afternoon like this when we get back... Sadly it won't be free pizza but it's still pizza so ..." Caspar told us

We sighed at him as I thought about everything we had been through here. We were practically a family now ... And family stick together!

I wasn't sure how I was going to survive without seeing Joe and hugging him nearly everyday but I knew we would make it work...

Sadly the afternoon turned into night and we had to leave, Joe said Caspar and him would drive us to the airport and we accepted the offer gladly.

-- the next day --

"I am going to miss this place so much" I said in tears with Joes arm wrapped around my waist and my head resting on his shoulder/bicep

"I know baby I know" he kissed me on the forehead and let go of me to put my bags in the back of the car "damn you have a lot of stuff Evie!"

"I know" I blushed as I got into the front seat of the car and Caspar got into the back with Skye

Blank Space by Taylor Swift came on the radio and for one of the last times we all sang along at the top of our lungs not having a care in the world about who was listening to us ...

We arrived at the airport and said our goodbyes. It felt like I was going to be away from Joe for a year not a week... I know I know I'm a tiny bit over dramatic but he's the best thing that's ever happened to me! What if he hooks up with someone else whilst I'm back in England?!?!

I hugged Caspar and said "I will miss you big brother"

"I will miss you too sis" he said ruffling my hair on the top of my head then letting go to say goodbye to Skye.

I walked slowly over to Joe and just stared into his beautiful brown eyes, he hugged me tight, kissed me on the forehead and whispered "don't worry it's only a week and don't you go hooking up with some British boy whilst I'm here"

When he said that it made me sigh with relief. He was thinking the exact same thing as me... It reassured me that it wasn't likely that he would go off with someone else which made me so happy.

"Cya in a week then Joesph" I winked, kissed him on the cheek and started to walk away with Skye

"Oi" I heard him call out, I turned around and blew him a kiss, even though he was pretending to sulk he caught the kiss and smiled.

"Let's goooooooo" Skye said excitedly

I was so excited for the surprise that was going to take place soon! It will either be the best thing ever or the worst but I'm pretty sure that it will be great!!!!

We dropped off out bags, went through customs *rolls eyes* and took our seats on the plane back to Britain....
