always in my heart (a justin bieber story)

Chapter 8.

I woke up the next morning smiling, I was so happy that I finally made some friends here.

I'm about to go to my photoshoot and I am so happy because modeling is something that I love and am so passionate about.

I hopped out of bed, walked to my bathroom and turned the shower on and got in. I stood in the shower washing myself and just let the water trickle down my body, I stood there just thinking about last night and how satisfied I was with how everything turned out and how pleased I am that I am moving into my new house soon.

I checked the time and realized that I was late.

"OH MY GOD!" I shouted as I leaped out the shower and grabbed my towel.

as I was drying myself off my phone vibrated.. it was a text from Jen,

"grace, where are you? you are late! x"

"sorry, I over slept just a bit, be there in 5 x" I texted back.

oh no I'm so late, I thought to myself as I rummaged through my closet looking for my sweats. I threw a white tank top on, some grey sweats and my converse, (what's new?) I threw my hair up in a bun and grabbed my bag and ran downstairs, I was in such a good mood and wasn't even that worried about being late. until I walked down the stairs and saw something that I did not want to see...

packed bags.

I felt my heart sink down to the bottom of my chest. I walked through to my kitchen and saw my brother sitting down finishing off some breakfast.

"Tom? what's going on?" I asked him softly.

he looked at me with a sad look on his face, "grace, I'm so sorry. I need to leave sooner than expected"

"but why?" I asked sadly.

"my work needs me" he said with a half smile on his face.

my brother is a very well known photographer in Australia.

"why can't you just leave tomorrow as you were meant to?" I said quietly but almost angrily.

"grace, it's just I can't! I need to get back today, the taxi service is waiting outside for me now"

he said whilst getting up and giving me a huge hug, "I'm going to miss you so much" he said kissing me on the forehead.

"I'm going to miss you too Tom Tom" I hugged him back.

"I'll come visit you soon or you come visit me? well whatever happens we will make a plan to see eachother." he said picking up his bags and making his way towards the door, "I love you grace, I'll see you ok?" he said, opening the door.

I ran up to him with tears welling up and gave him a huge hug, "I'm going to miss you so-" I was interrupted by the taxi driver honking at my brother telling him to hurry up.

"ok that's me grace, I have to go, bye, love you" he said making his way towards the taxi.

he got into the taxi and waved goodbye at me. I waved back half smiling trying to hold back my tears.

"what a great day!" I said softly to myself as I grabbed my keys and made way to my car.

as I arrived to my photoshoot the only thing I wanted to do was just get home.

"hey Jen, can we hurry this up please? I'm not having a great day so far I just need to get home please."

"yeah sure babe, lets get your hair and make up done as quick as possible" Jen said rubbing my back.

"and that's a wrap!" I heard the photographer say to me and all the camera crew.

I hurried to get my bags so I could get back into my sweats and get home.
