Today was the day, as much as it broke my heart to let him go I knew it had to be down. I sat on my bed in my sleepwear and unsure if I wanted to get dressed and say my good byes because that's exactly what it would be, although he had no idea. I sighed.
"Tierrah Dia Castillo! If you don't get down here this instant I swear to Dios Santisimo (God all mighty) I will go up there and drag you down. You're about to be late for school." I sighed as I got up and walked over to my vanity and turned my Ipod on. I turned it on the loudest possible. I slowly walked into my closet and took a green tank top and black skinny jeans, not that they were very cooperative with me lately. I felt tears stinging my eyes but I quickly blinked them away and changed as quickly as possible.
After getting dressed I stepped up to my vanity turned down the volume on my Ipod and tried to decide if I should wear make up but decided against it at the last minute. Nathan had always told me I was too beautiful for make up although I never believed it I tried to not wear it as much anymore. I grabbed my purse and backpack and slipped on some black flats.
As I reached the bottom step, my mother called out.
"Tierrah are you going to go see Nathan off?" As she stepped out of the kitchen and into the hall, blocking my attempt at a 'quick escape', notice the wording "attempt". I sighed deeply, feeling my heart squeeze with sadness.
"I don't know mom."
"Mija (honey) you should at least go and wish him good luck."
"I know ma. But I just..I feel like if I go I will try and beg him to stay." She walked up to me and hugged me.
"Mija I know this might seem a bit weird but is there something you want to tell me. Like maybe the real reason why you don't want to go say good bye?" I sure my face showed how much panic her words caused me.
"Wh-what are y-you talking about?" I questioned hoping she didn't hear me stutter.
"Honey I saw the positive pregnancy test in your room." Her face held concern no judgment no anger..just concern. I sobbed, not small hiccuping sobs but body shaking sobs.
"I'm so so-sorry..I was going to tell you..I didn't plan for this..for this to happen..I'm sorry. I just..didn't want to disappoint you. I was going to tell him but.."
"I know mija..I know..shh.. I;m here for you." I nodded into her chest I couldn't speak in fear of sobbing like crazy again.
"Come on let's get you cleaned up and you should at least go say good luck and wish him a safe trip even if you don't want to tell him. I don't know your reason for not telling him but at least go say your good byes, and well talk when you get back. Don't worry I'll call you in at school." She pushed my hair back as she placed a kiss on my forehead reminding me of Nath all over again. I needed closure even if he didn't know it was. I nodded.
I stood and grabbed my purse," Alright I'll be back in a bit mom. I'm going to go close a chapter of my life even he doesn't know it." She merely nodded as I walked towards the garage door.
"He has the right to know 'Dia' (A/N Dia is Tierrah's middle name)." I didn't even acknowledge that I heard her, I simple walked into the garage and headed for my car.
*At The Airport*
I walked up the lobby and saw him along with his family hugging and kissing. Suddenly his words reached me.
"Jess. Mom. have you heard from her yet? She won't answer me, its breaking my heart that she might've changed her mind. Maybe I should just stay and cancel on the audition. There will more auditions...right?" He said in a hurt voice, his voice broke near the end.
"I'm sure she'll be here. She did call me last night asking for oyur departure time...wait look there she is." She pointed at me as I stepped forward. He turned and ran at me swinging me in the air making me laugh and smile like crazy.
"You didn't think I'd let you leave without saying good bye and a proper kiss. Now did you?" I asked with humour in my voice.
"Why never. I wouldn't think of it." He smirked as he set me back on the floor.
"Good." I smiled up at him, mesmerizing every single one of his features, sketching them to memory. I reached up and dragged his lips down to mine. Just then they called his plane was ready for boarding, and were calling all priority boarding passengers." I guess this means good bye." I said as I broke away from the kiss, not that I wanted too.
"No, not a good by but a see you soon." He smiled as he kissed my forehead, making me lean into him savoring this moment. I nodded.
"Nathan come on. The other passengers are boarding." His mom spoke up, unintentionally breaking our precious to never repeat moment. He nodded and kissed my lips once again and slipped out of my embrace, picked up his luggage and headed towards the flight attendant checking boarding passes, before he walked through he turned and mouthed 'I love you', as his mother step up to my side.
"You love him don't you?'
"Yes I do. More than words can explain."
"Why didn't you tell him then?" I turned to face her with shock written all over my face.
"Wh-what do y-you-"
"Your pregnant. Aren't you?" I nodded and looked down at the floor." Is it his?" I looked back up at her with hurt displayed on my face." I'm sorry it's just that you didn't tell him so-"
"I know. But I want him to give it a shot and see if he can make his dream come true and if I would've told him, he woudn't have gone he would've insisted on staying and getting a job. But he is made for something better something bigger. I can feel it." I smiled up at her and noticed her smile and tears running down her face.
"You love him enough to sacrifice yourself for his dream." It wasn't really a question more of a statement, but I nodded nevertheless. She place a hand on my shoulder.
"Are you planning on telling him?"
"If he doesn't get in yes."
"What if he gets in?"
"I don't know. I don't want to be an obstacle." She sighed and squeezed my shoulder once again." Promise me you won't tell him, please Mama Sykes. Promise me." Her eyes filled with sadness and guilt. "Please. I'll tell him when the time comes. Please promise me."
"I promise Dia. I don't agree with this but I promise." I sighed in relief after hearing her words. A slight guilt hit me but I pushed it aside telling myself 'it's for the best, its for his future, he has to follow his dreams' with that I turned to her and thanked her and said my good byes.
