Haley's PoV

I woke up and spent most of the morning mopping around and slowly packing to leave tonight. I still haven't told Patrick we are leaving but I'm sure Bree told Pete and Pete told Patrick. Which sucks because he would probably want to hear it from me and not his best friend.

Patrick: Hey you ;p

ME: Hey. We need to talk...

Patrick: About?

ME: In person preferably.

Patrick: See you in 5?

ME: Okay.

I reread the messages and it sounded like I was going to break up with him. Fuck me. Ugh could this day get worse?

Patrick's PoV

Haley: Btw I'm not breaking up with you. Sorry if it sounded like that :/

Whew. Thank god she sent that because I really thought she was going to break up with me. Even after she told me she had a perfect night last night and we made out for about an hour. I smile at the thought of that and walk out of my hotel room and down one to Haley's.

I knock and she opens it immediately. She grabs me and pulls me into a hug. It was nice and warm yet sad at the same time.

"What's wrong?" I ask.

She looks up and says, "I'm leaving tonight Patrick".

What? She cant leave. We made plans to stay here for a few more days just so I could hang out with her.

"I don't want you to leave. Please? Not yet" I plead.

She looked extremely upset and I bet me bugging her to stay upset her even more. She made plans before she met me. Sadly she can't do anything about it and neither can I. Or can I?

***FLASHBACK***

"What's up with you and Haley?" Pete asks me in Game Stop.

I ask back, "Like what?".

He says, "Well, it's obvious you guys are dating and if not you need to start but I mean what are you going to do about the tour? And plus we have homes to get back to next week. What then?".

"I don't know. Maybe she can spend the summer with me and I can visit her while she's in school. Or I'll just text and Skype her everyday but I'm going to work it out. Something about her is different Pete. I don't know what it is" I say.

***PRESENT***

That's it!

"Stay with me" I say.

She looks at me confused.

"Spend the summer with me. My mom has a room you could use and I'm sure she wouldn't mind since she wants to meet you" I explain.

She answers, "I'd love to but I mean I can't just be like "Oh hey mum. I'm going to stay at this guy's house for the summer and he just so happens to be my boyfriend too. Umm yeah so bye". Haha I can't do that Patrick. She would freak".

"Then I will meet her and we can all talk about it together in person" I say trying to get her on board.

"So now you will be coming home with me?" she asks.

I say, "Yes".

She hugs me tighter and begins to cry.

"Why are you crying? Please stop. You are to beautiful to cry" I say beginning to stroke her back.
