*Courtney's POV*

'BEEP BEEP BEEP' My alarm clock rudely awoke me and just as I was about to snooze it I remembered...
TODAY WAS THE DAY I MOVED TO LONDON!
I was so excited I jumped out of bed, has a shower, washed my hair, did my makeup, got dressed and double, triple checked I had everything I needed for my hand luggage. Passport, check. Travel makeup, check. Toothbrush and toothpaste, check. Laptop, check. Phone, check. Chargers and headphones, check. After I gathered all my items in my Kate Spade handbag I walked through my empty apartment and said goodbye to each room. This apartment was full of amazing memories. For example, I was sitting on the couch in the living room when I hit 1 million subscribers, my biggest milestone. I am going to miss Australia so much and it will always be my home but it is time to make new memories in a new part of the world with new people, and I couldn't be more excited.

As I lock my apartment for the last time I feel a pang of doubt. 'Am I being too bold? Should I just back out?' I push those thoughts to the back of my head and head over to my parents house. I check my phone for the time, *6:30am*, on schedual. My flight is at 2pm but I want to spend some time with my family before I leave. I request an Uber and arrive at my parents house. Mum and Dad greet me and immediately take me out to my favourite breakfast cafe on the beach, Salt. We spend the entire morning chatting with fresh coffees and the sea breeze in our hair, making the most of each other. Being an only child, it was hard to tell my parents I wanted to move abroad, but they were nothing but supportive. We took walks on the beach and did a bit of shopping. I glance at my phone *11:30am*, I need to get to the airport. My parents drive me to the airport and help me with all of my luggage. I give my parents a very sad farewell, there were a lot of tears. I know this is the right thing for me though. I finally pluck up the courage and wave my final goodbye to them as I walk into the airport. Wiping away my tears I take a deep breath. 'This is happening.' I think to myself. 'It is actually happening'.

After I make it through security I make my way to my terminal. *12:15pm*. Although I am 45 early, that gives me time to call Caspar and Joe to let them know where I am. I try Caspar but he must be on the phone so I try Joe. He picks up on the second ring.

'Hello love'
'Hey Joe!'
'How is everything going?'
'Yeah good! I am at my terminal now and waiting for my plane. I am 45 mins early so I thought I would update you'
'Thats good! I am glad, I was worried about you.'
My stomach fluttered.
'Aw thats cute, I am fine dont worry about me! Can't wait for the 24 hour long flight ahead of me though!'
'I sense some sarcasm in your voice...'
'I wonder why'
That makes us both laugh.
'I'd best be off, Caspar is waiting for me at Nandos, text me though. Call when you land okay?'
'Okay I will. Bye Joe!'
'Bye Courtney, have a safe flight!'
'Thank you'
And the line goes dead. Why am I getting butterflies? I mean it is only Joe Sugg, despite the fact he is supermodel hot and has an accent to die for, I don't see myself ever being with him. Or do I?

My thoughts are interupted by the boarding call: 'Could all passengers for the flight to London at 1 pm please being boarding'. 'Deep breaths' I whisper to myself as I hand over my boarding pass and take a seat on the plane.

I am super happy I spent the extra money for first class because I have a bed! I get cosy in my bed, order some food and begin editing yesterdays vlogs. 'Shit! I haven't vlogged today!' I quickly whip out my camera and give everyone an update. After I finish vlogging, I edit 3 upcoming videos, watch some Gossip Girl but then doze off into a peaceful sleep.
