(Isabella's POV)

Krissy stormed out of my room and I heard the front door slam shut. I couldn't leave for London with her mad at me but I still had packing and forms to fill out. Her car started and faded into the distance as she left. I could chase after her. I could just stay home.

"Mom?" I yelled.

"Yes?" She answered.

"What time does my flight leave?"

"Tomorrow at noon."

"Okay, thanks." I said bounding down the stairs and jumping into my car. I couldn't have my best friend be mad at me. Plus, I had an idea she might like. I knew exactly where she was going to be. At the old train downtown. I parked and looked around. Sure enough, there she was, sitting on top of the train chucking rocks at the side of the building across from us. The sun was going down. I climbed up the sketchy ladder and semi-crawled to her.

"Krissy."

"What do you want?" She demanded.

"I wanted to say I'm sorry. I'm sorry for dating Connor however long ago that was."

"Five years." She muttered angrily.

"I don't want to leave with you mad at me." She didn't answer.

"I had an idea. So we could keep touch while I'm gone. I had it all set up so you could see it when I left but I guess now is a good time as any." I said reaching into my purse and grabbing a camera. I laid it in her lap and she picked it up. At first I thought she was going to throw it. She picked up the tag I had wrapped around it and smiled.

"Really?" She whispered. "You're so cheeky." She said leaning over and giving me a hug.

"I know." I said reading the tag:

Krissy, I had this wonderful idea while packing. I bought this camera and an identical "twin" (wink, wink) so we could talk to each other. While it may seem weird lugging a camera along with you everywhere. We'll get used to it. We have a YouTube channel now, TwoGirlsOneWorld. So we can talk to each other while I am away. Krissy, I'm going to miss you.

I convinced her to come down and get coffee with me.

"Who is going to pick you up from the airport?" Krissy asked taking a sip of her mocha.

"Jack." I said her eyes automatically lit up and she almost choked on her drink.

"He knew?" She asked.

"Yup."

"You little sneak!" She exclaimed. I smiled and sipped my milkshake. I don't like coffee.

"Say hi to him for me?" She whispered suddenly becoming sad.

"Of course." We both took another sip of our drinks and laughed at our synchronization.

"Krissy, I really am going to miss you."

"I have an idea." She said pulling out her camera and turning it on. We talked to that camera as if there were someone else on the other side. This wasn't just the end of my stay in the States. It was the beginning of a long distance forever friendship.
