{Your p.o.v.}

It's 6:00 am and I'm heading for the airport. We live in New Jersey but I'm going to go the place I've always wanted to go to, Florida. I arrive at the airport when it hits me, I'm really leaving this everyone I've known and loved. "Flight for Florida is boarding in five minutes, please hand in your tickets and start to board." As I hear that I make my way toward the plane. "This is it." I whisper to myself. "Goodbye." I say as I board the plane.


* 2 years later *

I wake up to the feeling of wetness. "Ugh gross Stitch," I say as I start to get out of bed. "You know not to lick me when I get up." Stitch looks at me with excitement as I start to get up and pour him food. After I pour him food I get ready to go to work. I have 2 jobs, GameStop and Gob's Pub. I work at GameStop from 9am-3pm and then Gob's Pub from 7pm-3am. I'm at my house with my St. Bernard puppy Stitch when I'm not working. I make sure there's nothing valuable Stitch can destroy and hug him goodbye as I start to go to GameStop.

"Hey (y/n)!" I hear when I enter the GameStop. I look over and see my best friend. "Hey Brian!" I say as I go behind the counter to get my name tag. "So (y/n), what do you have planned for tonight?" Brian asks me as I put up some of the used games.

"I have to do my shift at Gob's and I don't get off until 3 tonight," "I'm really sorry Brian, I really wanted to hang out with you but I'm free this weekend." I say.

"It's cool (y/n), I get it. Would you mind if I swung by Gob's though?" asks Brian. "Brian, it's a public bar. I'm not going to stop or force you if you decide to come by." I say. "Right. See you later then."

"Bye (y/n)."

"Bye Brian." I say as I leave to my apartment.

------At The Bar-------

I put on my apron and start to serve drinks when I see someone come in. "Oh no!" I say as I try to turn away from the him. I feel panicked because my brother just came in. He comes talks with a few of the guys that followed him and sit down at a booth. What am I going to do?! What if he recognizes me? I think to myself. I have changed a lot from what I used to look like. I no longer have long hair, I have a Mohawk, I am skinnier, I have many more piercings and a few tattoos. But even then, I don't know what is going to happen. Just get through the night and everything will be alright ok? I say in my head.

{(y/b/n) p.o.v.}

"(y/b/n), hey (y/b/n), are you ok? You seem distracted." says Tyler. "Yeah, I'm fine...it's just that that bar tender...she looks familiar. But never mind what were you saying?" I said. I zoned out while he was talking she looked so familiar I just don't know why. I absentmindedly nod my head and say yeah to whatever Tyler was talking about while I was really just trying to figure out why she looked familiar.

{your p.o.v.}

"(y/n)! Hey, since I'm you're best friend does that mean I get a discount?" I look to the right and see Brian come in and sit at the counter part of the bar. I laugh and say "No, but it will be on the house this time."

"So has anyone hit on you yet?" "Brian, no. The nights just getting started and I want to get out as soon as I can." "Why?" "It's hard to expl-"

"(y/n)?"

{(y/b/n) p.o.v.}

"(y/n)?" I say in disbelief. "Is that really you?" She walks around the counter and stands in front of me. "Yes it is (y/b/n)." she said.

I immediately grabbed her in a bone-crushing hug "I've missed you so much, you don't know what we've went through trying to find you." I whisper in her ear. "I'm sorry, I just didn't know what to do. How are mum and dad?" she asks "They're good, they got some marriage counseling and they're relationship has been better than ever." I say with a small smile. "Oh, how rude of me," she says "This is Brian, he's my best friend." "Hi." Brian says.

"Look, I've got to get back to my shift but if you need a place to stay for the night I can bring you to my apartment." she says. "Yeah, I'd love that. Just let me get my stuff and tell Tyler where I'm gonna be...it's nice to see you again." "Yeah, it's good to see you too (y/b/n)."


------At The Apartment------

{your p.o.v.}

"...So yeah this is where I live." I say as I unlock the door. As soon as I get in Stitch jumps up on me. "Hey boy," "Let's see what you've destroyed today." I walk around the apartment to see that very little was actually damaged, other than the pillow on the couch. I go to pour him more food and tell (y/b/n) to put his stuff on the table in the kitchen.

"I know this is a small place but this is what I call home." I say. "It's nice... just, were you even planing to ever come back to see mum or dad? You have no idea what we went through you know." he says. "Yes I was planning to come back but look (y/b/n), I don't want to fight ok? I just want to relax after a long day. You didn't have to acknowledge me, you could've just left. I did what I thought was right for me. You didn't care and it wasn't like mum and dad cared either. I thought it was just better if I left." "You didn't know how hard it was for me to go and not call. Every day I wanted to go back but I couldn't, I just couldn't. You may think that I left just because I was a hormonal teenager and I still am but I needed a new start. I still continued school, I did school online and I graduated last year. I'm doing better than I ever did when I was at that house." I say with a heavy sigh.

"Why are you in Florida (y/b/n)?"

"I'm here because I'm on break from college and me and a few friends wanted to come here."
he replied.

"Look, I'm not going to go back and stay but, I will come back with you to say hi. I have my own life here and I can't just up and leave."

"You say that but you left us (y/n)." he said

"I KNOW! OK I'M SORRY!!!.......I just needed a new start." I have jobs I have to work, I'm in college, I have my dog, I have my best friend. I can't leave." I say as silent tears start to fall down my face. He comes toward me and hugs me. We stand like that for a while before I pull away and get some pillows and extra blankets from my room. "So... what are you going to tell mum and dad?" I say.

"I'm going to tell them the truth. That I've found you and that you have your own life here. I am, however, going to get a job here and move." he says and I look up at him. "Why?"

"Because (y/n), it's been two years and I want to see my baby sister. I love you and now that I've found you I'm never going to lose you again." he says.

I go up to him and hug him "I love you so much (y/b/n)."

"I love you more than you'll ever know (y/n), goodnight."
