Two Of A Kind

Chapter 10

I woke up at 11:00. Everyone was gone. The bedding was ruffled or on the floor. I sat up and rubbed my eyes. I stood up from my sleeping bag on the floor and walked over to the bathroom. I splashed my face with water and dried it. I walked back to my sleeping bag and picked up my phone. I had three texts.

'Went out for breakfast be back soon!'
-Zoe

I checked the next one.

'I'm leaving at 11:30'
-Luke

'I'm sorry. I love you and always will'
-Luke
I stared at the two texts. He loves me? I could still meet him. I looked at the clock. I could. But then what would I do? I sat down on the bed. I don't have to go to graduation. I could just get my diploma in the mail. Dad wants me to move on and out anyways. My friends... I could visit. I could go. I wanted to go. I wanted to leave everything behind for Luke. I was willing to make that sacrifice.
I grabbed my clothes and slipped them on. I brushed my hair and teeth and stuffed the green iPhone 5c and some money in my back pocket. I stuffed all of my things in my bag. I ran out the door locking it behind me. I raced out to the parking lot and saw a cab. I waved to it and ran to it. I got in the backseat as fast as possible,
"Los Angeles Airport. Hurry. I'm late." I said. The guy nodded and pressed the petal. I looked out the window rehearsing what I would say.

Luke I love you too and I'm sorry

Let's go back to your place and get married and have thirty kids

Let me come with

"Okay, we're here." The guy said. I handed him a ten and closed the door. I check the time on my phone 11:25. I had five minutes to find Luke. I ran into the entrance. I walked quickly around the crowds of people. I looked in the waiting room and didn't see him. I got out my phone and called him. No answer. I needed to find him. I started walking down the hallway. I tried calling Calum. Nothing. Michael. Nothing. Ashton. Nothing but his god damn giggly voice mail. I went back into the waiting room.
"First call Sydney, Australia." The woman's voice echoes through the waiting room. Oh my god. He could be on the plane. I looked around for him. He was no where to be seen. I lost him. He's gone.

Luke's P.O.V

"Come on. Our flight's been called." Ashton said to me. I looked up from my shoes and looked around. No sign of her. I was waiting out in the airport parking lot for Kiara. But se wasn't coming.
"One more minute. I'm sure she'll come soon." I said. Ashton stared at me blankly.
"Dude, if she wanted to fix it she would have came already." Michael said putting his hand on my shoulder. I looked at my shoes.
"I'm sorry, bro." Calum said. I didn't say anything. I couldn't believe we had something, but never did anything with it. And now the time was up. It was over. I would become nothing to her in a few days. And I would grieve over her entire existence. I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. Is it her?! I checked.
👻Maykenzey👻
I sighed and answered it.
"Hi." I said.
"Hey, is Kiara with you?" She asked. I perked up a little.
"No." I said.
"Oh well she left. Didn't leave a sign or anything. She took her stuff and is gone." She said. Is she here? Is she coming!
"Sure she didn't leave any sign?" I asked. Please come back please.
"She read Zoe's text at eleven o'clock." She was up then.
"Anything else?" I asked.
"No. Nothing." She said.
"Oh." I said.
"Do you think she went to the airport?" She asked.
"I hoped."
"You did?" She asked with shock in her voice.
"Of course I did." I said. Maykenzey awed.
"Last call for Sydney, Australia." The woman said. I sighed.
"I have to go." I said.
"Okay. Tell Ashton I'll see him soon."
"Soon?"
"Yeah, I'm flying over there after graduation. So is Caitlin and Tess."
"Oh... Okay. That's nice." I said sadness overcoming me.
"Okay, bye." She said and hung up. I put my phone in my pocket and walked back into the airport. I shuffled down the hallway. I lost her. She's gone.

Kiara's P.O.V

They already have the last call for his flight. He would leave soon. I stood up and started walking to the door. Tears brimmed my eyes as I looked at my black vans. The I bumped into someone. I fell to the floor. I looked at the strangers black vans like my own.
"Oh, I'm sorry." The stranger said with a thick Australian accent. I knew that voice. I looked up and saw Luke.
"Luke!" I yelled jumping up. I wrapped my arms around him and felt his wrap around me. I was pulled into a tight hug. I pulled away and looked at him.
"I'm so sorry. This was all my fault, but I'm going to solve it. I'm going with you." I said.
"What? You are?! Luke yelled happily.
"Yeah!" I said excitedly. I was wrapped into another hug. I looked up and my eyes met Luke's. He looked from my eyes to my lips, then back up to my eyes. He leaned in and kissed me. Our lips attached and they moved in sync. Luke pulled apart and rested his forehead on my own.
"You know what I wished? On that star?" Luke said. I shook my head lightly.
"I wished for you to be with me." He said.
"I'll always be yours."
"Forever and always?"
"Forever and Always. I will be yours." I said.

I meant every word.
