Three Weeks Later
Ross's P.O.V
It's been three weeks since Laura and I got back together. And to be honest, we've been happier than we've ever been.
My whole family treat Laura like she's family, which she is. And her family treat us like family. So we're all super happy.
Laura and I were in the living room, watching movies when Riker walked in. "Dude, can I talk to you for a second?" He asked. I looked to Laura who looked to me. She nodded. I smiled and got up and walked out of the room with Riker.
"What's up?" I asked. "Don't freak out, but we're playing another show in Paris!" He said, excited. "How can I not freak out?! This is amazing!" I shouted, Riker and I done our little happy dance. But then his smile faded.
"When's the show?" I asked. Because Andre books our shows. So I don't know what date. Riker looked at the ground then at me. "Two days. We leave for our flight on Wednesday" "What?" I shouted. We cant leave in such short notice.
"Well.. what about Laura?" I asked, worried. He sighed. "She can't come with us.. Andre's rules. And mom doesn't like girls on the tour bus" He said gently. "No! She has to come! I cant be without her for that long!" I shouted. "I already discussed this with mom, dad and Andre because I knew you'd be upset. But they said as much as they wish she could, she cant" He said.
"How long are we there for?" I asked, folding my arms. "A week. We come back next Wednesday" He said. "But, I'm gonna miss her like crazy" I sighed. He nodded. "I know, man. But we can't let our fans down" He said. "I know, I know" I groaned. "Well, to be honest, a week isn't that long, you can survive a week without Laura" He said. I shrugged. "I can barely manage a day without Laura, let alone seven!" I sighed. He patted my back and walked off.
I sighed and headed back to the living room. "What did Riker want?" She asked. I groaned and slumped back onto the couch beside Laura. I looked at her. Her smile faded. "What's wrong?" She asked. "I-- I have to leave on Wednesday" I said. "What?" She asked. "We've been booked to play a show in Paris. I knew nothing about it until now" I sighed. She looked at me. "Well.. how long will you be gone?" She asked. "A week" I said. "A week?!" She repeated. "Atleast we have today and a little bit of tomorrow, then I have to leave on Wednesday" I tried to smile. She smiled a bit. "I'm gonna miss you when you leave" She sighed. I nodded and cuddled her close. "Me too"
Laura's P.O.V
It was the next day, I was at Ross's helping him pack his stuff. Even though he doesn't leave until tomorrow. I am gonna miss him more than anything. It'll be hard without him for a whole week. "You don't know how much i'm gonna miss you, Ross" I sighed, trying not to cry. He looked up at me. "Don't cry, otherwise i'll cry" He chuckled.
He came and sat on the bed next to me and pulled me in for a hug. "It's only a week, right?" I said, trying to lighten up the mood. "Yeah but a week is kind of a long time" She said. I nodded. "I know" He sighed.
I wiped a tear away from my eye before he could see. "I still have tons to pack, why don't you go home and relax, you don't have to help me" He smiled. I raised my eyebrows. "Are you serious? I'm spending as much time as possible with you" I giggled. He laughed and kissed me softly, then got up and continued packing his stuff.
I tapped my feet on the floor, blowing bubbles with my bubble gum.
Time passed and I opened my eyes. Ross was led next to me smiling. "Did I fall asleep?" I asked. "Yeah" He laughed. "What's the time?" I asked. He looked at his watch. "10pm, you're not gonna sleep tonight" He chuckled. I sighed. "Great" I mumbled. "I should go" I groaned. "Are you sure you don't want to stay?" He asked. I shook my head. "I wont be able to sleep, so what's the point?" I giggled. I kissed him gently. "What time do you leave tomorrow?" I asked. "12pm" He replied. "I'll be here before then to say goodbye" I smiled, trying not to cry. "Bye Laur, love you" He smiled. "Love you too" I said, then left.
Tomorrow will be the worst day of my entire life.
Ross's P.O.V
It was the next morning, it was about 11:30am. I was finishing a few things up in my suitcase and looked at the picture of Laura and I in the golden picture frame. I smiled at it. I tried my best not to cry. I packed it into my suitcase gently. Then Laura ran into my room and jumped into my arms.
I spun her around, still in a tight hug, and kissed her softly then gently put her down. I was about to say something when Rydel came into my room. "Rossy, change of plans. Andre just told me we have to leave right now" She said. My eyes widened. Ellington walked past. "Ell, wait!" Rydel said and yanked him back. "What?" He groaned. "Ross, give me and Ell your suitcases, we'll take them down to the cab, you can say bye to Laur" She smiled. I nodded and passed them my suitcases. "Sure, I'll be a chauffer" Ratliff sarcastically said. "Shutup, doof" Rydel smirked and hit him.
They left us alone. This point, Laura was crying more than anything. "I'm gonna miss you so much!" She said. I nodded. "I'm gonna miss you too" I said, I started to cry. We both went downstairs and headed outside. Laura tried to wipe her tears away with her sleeve but they kept coming back.
I pulled her in for a tight hug. My arms tightly around her waist and her arms tightly around my neck.
"I'll call you when I land and everyday until I get back" I promised her. She was still crying, she nestled her head into my neck. I could feel her nod gently. "I promise" I gently said. She looked up at me. Her mascara was smudged everywhere.
"I love you so much!" I said, a tear rolling down my cheek. "I love you too!" She tried to smile. I kissed her gently and hugged her one last time. "Bye, Laur" Rydel called and hugged her tight. "I'll miss you, Delly" She smiled. "I'll miss you more" Rydel giggled and got into the cab. Riker, Rocky, Ell, Mom, Dad and Ryland all took it in turns giving her a hug.
"Bye guys!" She called as they each got into the taxi. I looked at Laura and she looked at me. We shared one more loving hug and one more passionate kiss, and I got into the taxi.
I started to cry a bit.
Laura waved gently as the cab went by. She was gone out my life for a whole week.
Oh, I almost cried writing this chapter. I'll update as soon as possible. Thanks for reading.
