I wake up in my room with the light blinding my eyes. My head was pounding like it was hit by a bus. "How did I get home last night?" I look at the clock and it was 8:02 a.m. I tried to remember the last thing that happened last night. I remember getting super drunk, then Duke came over and made me stop then...Oh...Shit. It was all coming back to me. I remember Duke carrying me out of the party to take me home and I barfed all over his shirt. I face palmed myself. This is so embarrassing. I break from my train of thought when I hear my phone buzzing. I look around to try and find it. I finally found it under my pillow. I accept the call not bothering to see who it was calling.
"Hello?" I say. My voice still groggy.
"Rosette? Did you just wake up?" I hear Casey's voice on the other end.
"Yes," I say. Now massaging my forehead.
"Well, be ready in an hour and a half I'm coming to get you."
"Why?" I ask getting up to get water for my dry throat.
"Because we are going to the airport to say goodbye to Ashley," she says with excitement in her voice.
"Don't you mean so you can flirt with Austin some more," I say smirking.
"Well..that maybe part of it, but I like Ashley too!" She tries to argue.
I laugh a little bit. "Okay fine. Let me know when you're here"
"Alright text you later! Love ya!" And with that, I end the call.
I go downstairs to see my parents were not up yet. I quickly looked in the cupboard to find some Advil for my headache. After I decide to make some peanut butter toast with raspberries and milk. When I was done eating I hop in the shower. The water instantly made me feel better. I haven't gotten drunk since my family's Christmas party. I was having a drinking contest with one of my uncles and I ended up losing. After I'm done showering I blow dry my hair. I put on some ripped jeans and a black crop top. I then put on some light makeup. By the time I'm done, it's almost 10:30. I patiently wait downstairs for Casey to text me that she is here. I hear some footsteps coming downstairs and see that my mom is awake. She lets out a big yawn and her eyes widen as she sees that I am awake.
"Oh! Good morning honey!" she says with a sleepy smile.
"Good morning mom."
"Did you eat breakfast already?" She ask's as she starts to pour herself some left over coffee.
"Yeah I already ate." I look at my phone wondering where Casey is.
"Oh by the way. Why didn't you tell me you have a boyfriend?"
I take my eyes off my phone and look at my mom. "What?!" I say completely confused.
"That handsome young man that took you home last night. What was his name? Is he your boyfriend? If he's not, he should be. He was such a gentlemen taking you home like that." she says now smirking at me.
I start to roll my eyes. "His name is Duke and no he is not my boyfriend. Nor will he ever be..."
My mom shakes her head at me. "Oh, honey never say never."
I then get a buzz from my phone.
Casey: I'm here!
"Okay, mom I'm gonna head out. I will be home later," I say as I start to walk out the door.
"Okay sweetie, love you!" she yells.
"Love you too," I say before shutting the door. I walk out and see Casey waiting for me. I get in her car and we head out to the airport.
~~~
It took us about 20 minutes to drive to the Airport. Casey told me that her flight leaves at Noon but they always let them board the plane 30 minutes before it took off. We get inside the Airport and see Ashley Hugging both Austin and Duke a Goodbye. But no Greyson. He was nowhere to be found. As soon as I reached her, her eye's lit with joy.
"Hi Rosette, I am so glad you're here," she says with a big smile.
"I'm glad to be here too. We are all going to miss you. Even the people who aren't here..." I say looking at the ground now. He eyes flashed some sadness into it for a few second but suddenly brushed it off by putting on a happy face.
"Well! I don't want to keep Africa waiting," she then grabs her suitcase and gives us all one more big hug. "I'll miss you all. Remember to never let anything stand in the way of your dreams."
I nodded at her wise comment. And with a quick wave she walked off into the crowd of people. We all just stood there as she walked away. Suddenly I heard a voice behind me.
"Hey guys," I turn around to see Greyson standing there with a smile on his face. I felt anger in my stomach and Lashed out at him.
"How could you do that?! How could you not say goodbye to her?! Don't you realize this could be the last time you see her?!" I yell at him now huffing.
He doesn't say a word he just pulls something out of his pocket and holds it in the air. It was a ticket. "I have the next flight," he says with a smirk. "I couldn't stop thinking about what you said last night. About me not being a man. Well, I am going to be a man now and follow after her."
I couldn't help but get a little teary-eyed. Finally.
"Man! you go get her!" Austin says as he pats him hard on the back. He then pulls him in a short hug. Duke looks at him for a short second not saying a word. Then pulls him in a tight hug.
"Good luck, " he says. Greyson just smiles.
"Well, I have a jet waiting, guys. Don't worry, this isn't goodbye." He then pulls out his suitcase he had hidden behind a chair and starts to walk in the direction that Ashley went.
"Greyson!" I yelled. He looked back and waited for my answer.
"Have a safe flight!" I say now smiling.
He returns the smile and turns back walking into the crowd of people.
