Far Away But Close Together

Packing

Codes: oh...can I come over? I'll help you pack...

He was devastated. I hate this for him... I want to take all of the pain away but I cannot because I am the pain...

Me: sure... Come on over Cody

I didn't know what to say... How were we supposed to talk? WHAT were we going to talk about? Breaking up? Leaving eachother? This was not going to be fun...

Suddenly I heard my window open and there was Cody with a smoothie in each hand and his guitar around his back. I couldn't help but smile.

"Hey babe!" he said.

"hey..."

"Look. I am not going to break up with you... We are going to do this. Plus my tour is about to start, so we'd be apart anyways. But I will love you still" Cody told me wrapping me in his arms.

"Thanks Codes for trying to make me happy... but we are going to be a long ways away... How are we supposed to date if we can't get together?" I asked him.

"It's simple. FaceTime! Oh and A?" he said. "remember something. You are coming on tour with me! Your aunt and uncle agreed! Ryan Beatty will open the first half of the tour and you'll do the second half!"

"OH MY GOSH CODY!!!! YAYYY!!!"

"But... the second half is in almost year... cuz the tour starts in almost 5 months.... And Ryan has the first 4 months... So we'll be apart for 9 months..."

"I know..." I said, "but at least I can look forward to that!"

"BUTTTT guess what else Allison?" Cody asked me.

"What?!" he makes me so happy.

"A week before it's your turn to come on tour, we are having a show in Cambridge, England, where you'll be living!"

I literally couldn't even think straight... This was awesome!

"OH MY GOSH!!! CODY!" I yelled hugging him.

"Now we need to get you packed, angel" he said kissing me.

"Cody, you really don't have to do this. You can go home if you want." I told him.

"I know. I'm not going to literally pack for you. I'm gonna sing to you while you're packing. Plus I want to spend as much time with you as I can before we won't have any time together for 8 months."
