The Calling [On Hold]

12. Airport

"Finished." I say wiping my wet eyes. Charlie hugged me and kissed my forehead.
Charlie and I have decided it would be safer for everyone that we leave. Just get out and go. And tomorrow was June 14th, last day of school for the summer and as soon as school let's out Charlie and I are leaving.
No one knows about out plan but Olivia but that was on an accident.

*flashback yesterday after school*

"I don't want you living like this. We can't find who it is. And the cops won't help. I don't even think it's a matter of ability anymore. Those lazy bastards just don't want to." Charlie said angrily. He's right. They won't.

"I'm pretty sure it's Mr. O-"

"Baby. He's in jail though." Charlie shrugged. That is right. Until the trail he's in jail. But then who?

"What should we do then?" I sighed playing with my wrist band on the table, Charlie grabbed my hands and twined our fingers together. I smiled.

"We leave. Leave everything. Its bad enough he's after you. What if next the others? Your family. My family. I won't allow it." He said, he's write. I won't allow it either. I don't even want him in this but of course from here on out all we have is each other. He's my air. My lifeline. I need him more than ever.

"Oh hell no. You can't leave." Olivia walked in the kitchen with watery eyes. We were shocked of her presents and I stood up to hug her. She hugged me and her sobs forced me to cry.

"I'm sorry Liv." I whispered, Charlie came to hug us both.

"Just don't tell. Anyone. Not even Mr. Tayler." Charlie said with a shaky voice. Olivia nodded. So it's settled. We're leaving.

***************************

Dad: Have a good late day.

I smiled but it fades. Charlie squeezes my hand as we walk to first period and I clutch my phone close to my heart. Imma miss my dad.

In last period science we just sat in class doing nothing. Most decided to leave. We were given the option to leave but I wanted to stay in Campton for as long as I can before I leave.

"What are y'all doing this summer?" The teacher asked, I looked up from staring at Charlie's hands realizing she was talking to us.

"Traveling." Charlie said with a hint of humor in his eyes and looked at me. I smiled and nodded.

"Awww. How romantic." Mrs. White said, I smiled at her then rubbed my hands through Charlie's hair. He winked at me and brought my hand down to kiss the back of it.

***************************

"Ready?" Charlie asked as we walked towards the door. Bags and other things were ready in the car. Trevor, Olivia, Allyson and Aemillio stood near it.

"Cloée. Take care of yourself." Olivia smiled hugging me super tight. I hugged her tighter. I loved my best friend. Ally and Trevor looked at each other confused. I smiled at them and saw that they were both unknowledgeable that their hands are inching towards each others.

"Let it happen. Trust me, it'll make things a lot easier." Said taking their hands and holding them together, Ally started to blush like crazy but Trevor held onto her hand tight and smiled at me. I smiled Then hugged them too. Next my bro Aemillio, he was like a soft teddy bear. I gave him one quick squeeze and sighed moving away. Everyone was unaware that Charlie and I won't be here in Campton for a long while.

Waving bye was the hard part. I couldn't bare to look at Olivia's tears rushing down her cheeks. Her one foot stuck out like she was going to follow. But we can't. Cause then Ally wanna come and Trevor would follow her and Aemillio would follow us because he's like my brother too. I can't have all that on them. All this pressure. Plus I can't have them all know we were leaving. They'd stop us. They will find out sooner or later but I vote later.

"Babe?" Charlie whispered, I looked over to him.

"Hmm?" I forced a smile, He wiped an unwanted tear from my cheek.

"You okay?" He asked pulling off, I sighed and did my final waves then turned forward.

"Yes. I'll miss them like crazy." I said smiling more genuinely now. He chuckled and shook his head.

"I will too. Especially Trevor." He said, I looked at him wide eyes and he caught a glimpse of my reaction causing us both to laugh.
Only Charlie could make me laugh in a moment like this. Any moment really. Just in general Charlie was a bubbly happy person in the whole so how could anyone not smile around him?

***************************

I wake up and he's parking his car. He gets out and grabs the bags. I rush out and help but he insists he'll do it all as we head into the airport.

"I feel gross. I'm going to go change. In this public place." More humor than anything in my voice, he laughed at my face.

"Please don't get lost." He says kissing me, I kiss him roughly then run off to the bathroom.
Wearing a black thin t-shirt, a green leather jacket, white pants with a thin green belt and black ankle boots; I walk out the stall fixing myself. Satisfied with the way I look and fluffed my hair. I did my makeup (ikr) and placed everything in its place. Walking back out to Charlie I gain a few stares from people. Charlie's low eyes widen once he sees me.

"You took sooooo long!" He whined, I sat next to him kissing him.

"Sorry baby. Did I miss anything?" I giggle as I grab his hand, he twines our fingers together.

"Two arrests, three fights, a group of screaming kids, and a half naked man playing the guitar but he was one of the man arrested." He bust out laughing, oh holy goodness be had better recorded every one of them.

"Omg. What the hell is wrong with people these days?" I ask, he shrugs pulling his phone and giving it to me. I unlock it (password: Charleé) and watch the videos. With my headphones of course.
I laughed so hard I cried a couple times. I could feel Charlie watching me but once I looked over at him He was either looking down playing with my free hand or watching the crazy people around us. He was unbelievably precious to me.
