I know he's going to miss me, and I'm going to miss him terribly to. But that doesn't stop me, if I don't leave no I never will. And that's what I'm afraid of. to be stuck in this little town, expected to be nothing but work the same boring job for the rest of your life.

I have to leave, and I will. I know I'm being selfish but its what I want to do, to make me happy.

"Will you ever come back." He whispers barely audible to hear.

"I honestly don't know, I just have to see how it goes." Truthfully, I don't know if I want to come back or not. but I will for sure write, or call everyone I love here.

He looks down and then back up taking my hand. Staring at me with his wild green eyes. "I'll miss you so much, and before you leave I have to tell you something."

Concern bubbles inside of me when the words "tell you something" fall out of his mouth.

"W-what is it?" I ask giving his hand an extra squeeze for encouragement, his eyes widen and a smile is etched on his face.

"I've always loved you, and now that your leaving and might not come back. I have to tell you that every time I see you my heart flutters, when you say my name butterflies erupt from inside me. Just thinking about you makes my day lighten. I love you Emily, and I always will." He speaks pressing his lips against my cheek.

Then walking towards the window. "I hope you find what your looking for." He smiles and exits out the window, looking back once more.

I watch him without saying a word, in complete shock. I never knew he felt that way towards me. I mean I loved him but in a friendly way, nothing more. I guess I never noticed the times he started at me. It pains me to know that all this time he has, but I can't feel something for his other that to be his friend.

The real feelings just aren't there for my best friend

But for now I need to get my sleep. I will be leaving at five in the morning to Doncaster moving in with a roommate named, Mattie who've I met twice on Skype talking details with her.

How much I would pay, and what we like. I noticed she had a few piercings and tattoos, but she looked rather friendly.

Staring up at the ceiling thinking constantly, I know I will not miss this place. I know I will be happy.

*Beep-beep* I roll over to stop the continuous beeping of my phone.

Quickly getting up I head to the shower. I let the water embrace me, that last shower at my 'home' the last time I will be standing in front of my mirror wishing for something more.

Making my way towards my bedroom I grab my black track suit I will be wearing. If I'm riding on a plane for several hours I want to be comfortable.

I slip on the sweats and jacket and grab my luggage where my Aunt Terra, and Jeremiah were waiting for me with warm smiles.

"Ready?" My aunt sniffles, looks like she's been crying all night. I really don't want to leave her she will be all alone But I just have to. For the sake of my sanity.

We make our way towards my aunts station wagon, I take the back seat while Jeremiah takes the passenger seat. We sit in silence as Terra tries to make conversation.

"So, have you texted Mattie?" She asks breaking the awkward tension. Which hasn't dissolved from last nights encounter with Jeremiah.

"Yeah, she said she'll pick me up from the airport when I arrive."

"Well Okay."

Ten minutes later we arrive at the small airport, I was told I have to make several stops go on a larger plane. Which doesn't bother me at all, I will get to visit a few other states.

We approach the drop off section and step out of the vehicle. With my aunt Terra already bawling.

Jeremiah helps me unload my luggage and step to give me a hug. I quickly respond and hug him tightly placing a simple kiss to his cheek. "I'll miss you too Jeremiah." I say feeling a knot in my throat rise.

I move over tom my aunt and hug her deeply, this time tears spilling out of my eyes. "I'll miss you so much Aunt Terra, I'll call you whenever I get the chance." I say, as she sniffles into my jacket, staining it with her tears.

We quickly untangle ourselves and I continue walking towards the airport, the knots in my stomach once I make my way inside.

I turn around one last time and wave goodbye, sending them a huge smile. The corner of my eyes prick with tears from the emotion bubbling inside.

I can't believe this is actually happening. I'm finally leaving. "The plane to Doncaster is now departing." I hear the intercom belt out, checking one last time what my ticket reads. "Seat 98B"

Making my though the little tunnel and to my seat.

"I'm Ready, Doncaster, and I hope your ready for me."
