Luke's POV
Christy and I's steps synced as we walked through the airport. The chatter of passerby's and music from restaurants could be heard, whilst we didn't make a single sound. The air hung thick and heavy with tension as I stared at my boots as I shuffled along. I tightened my grip on Christy's hand as we walked closer to the departure gate, the soft material of her sleeve rubbing against mine comfortingly.

The silence between us was unbearable.

I was infatuated with her. Soft black hair gathered over one side of her shoulder, her rosy flushed cheeks, and her dark eyes that I had grown attached to. She was effortlessly irresistible, and I loved her so much.

I let out a sigh, causing her to look at me. Our eyes interlocke until she broke the silence. "Luke, I get it. It's fine." She whispered, almost inaudible yet twanged with slight sadness. It hurt me to see her like this, so hurt and fragile.

I was broken, but she didn't deserve to be.

I shake my head, another frustrated sigh leaving my lips. "Christy, you don't. You don't get it."

Her eyes filled with confusion, and instantaneously disappeared as she recollected herself, not showing any emotion. "No. I do. You have to leave. What we had, all of this," She gestured around her. "didn't mean anything to you. I get it, I really do. But I enjoyed it. Thank you."

Her voice wavered at the last sentence, and tears started pooling in her eyes. My entire body shook. Never in my entire life would I have imagined to feel like this. I was watching my entire world crumble in front of me, and I couldn't do anything.

I parted my lips and before I could make a noise, she cut me off. "Don't say anything. Just go."

I shook my head, unable to get words out of my mouth, staring at her. A single tear ran down her face, and I had to use my entire body to resist the urge of kissing her right there and then.

"Go," She placed her fragile yet warm hands to my chest, gently pushing me away. "Bye, Luke."

Before I knew it, my legs had carried me to the entrance, but my soul was still with her. Every little bit of me wanted to go back, but as I watched her slowly walk away, her head bent and her shoulders slouched, it felt as if my heart had been beaten into pieces, shattered and dumped on the ground.

Fuck it.

I walked out, pushing past the countless passengers in line, their loud groans and frustrated comments muted in my head. I wasn't focusing on them. I was focusing on the love of my life.

"Sir, you can't come back once you leave." The guard put a hand to my shoulder, jerking me back.

"I'm not going to." I said, my voice raspy. I wiped the angry tears out of my eyes with the back of my hand as I ran away.

"Christy!" I yelled, looking around me. "Babe!"

And there she was. In my vision, everyone else was blurred besides her. She was my calm after the storm.

I ran over, attacking her in a hug. The weight pulling me down was knocked off and my entire body relaxed against hers. Our bodies molded together as we stood there in silence, our arms wrapped around each other, unwilling to let go.

"Fuck, Christy. You have absolutely no idea how much I need you. I regret it so much not telling you all of this, and the guilt was so overwhelming. Christy. You're my entire world and you deserve so much more than me and I want to give you everything you want. I love the way your use your arms a lot when you talk. I love the way you always kiss me goodnight. I love the way you always put me as your top priority no matter what. But ultimately, I love you. I'm such a dickhead for leaving, and I'll never do it ever again. Fuck, I love you babygirl. Fuck. I'm so stupid for letting you go. I'm a broken mess and you deserve the whole world, but I need you. I need you here with me Christy. I love you so much." I blabber, words leaving my mouth before it got to my head. My heart ached for her.

Christy pulled away, tears streaming down her face yet she still looked mesmerising. "Luke, I love you."

My body felt as if it was floating as she said those very words, and I crashed my lips on to hers, where I was completely at ease, all the stress, all the problems in my life, the darkest place in my mind sucked out and replaced by light.

Fuck, I'm never letting her go.
