10.

Dedicated to MrsAustinCMahone  Love you bby💝💝

So, Katya is in CA, and now she's apparently going to be in the joyride music video... I get they're dating, but honestly she needs to leave his career alone.

10. I'll Miss You.

"Alex! Alex! Alex! Please open the door" I bang on his door, hoping not to wake anyone around us.

"Parker, it's 2 in the morning" He says, opening the door while rubbing his tired eyes.

"I love him" I blurt, tears filling my eyes at the realization "I don't know what to do"

"What?" He asks with widened eyes.

"Can we go for a walk? I don't want him to realize I'm gone and find me here" I sigh, and he nods.

"He's in your room?"

"He's sleeping" I tell him, and he sighs "Alex, please" I frown, not wanting a lecture.

"Alright, alright. Let's go" He walks out of the door, and closes it behind us. We walk down the steps and out of the residence hall, and walk down the sidewalk.

"So, what's going on?" He asks me "Why do you think you love him? What happened?"

"Well he took me out on that date that wasn't actually a date, and it was so amazing, I can't even explain how amazing it was. But anyways, afterwards we... you know" I look over at him and he nods, understanding what I meant "And after that Aiden showed up at the door, and instead of letting him in and telling Austin to leave, I did the opposite and I told him that I'd take being with him over Aiden any day" I sigh "And it's because I love him, and I can't do it"

"Can't do what?"

"I can't just love him and pretend that I don't and I don't know what to do" I frown "I hate this"

"I know you do" He wraps an arm around my shoulders "But you know what to do, I know you do" He kisses my temple.

"I really don't Alex" I sigh.

"Remember when we all went out to dinner?" He asks, and I nod "What did we talk about?"

"Going after what we need, not what we want"

"Exactly"

"I talked about that with Austin, and he made a valid point about going after what you need isn't as exciting as what you want. If Aiden is what I need, that's boring" I run a hand through my hair "Why does it have to be like this?"

"Because he will never admit that he loves you" Alex shrugs, and soon we head back to campus. We walk to my door, and I lean against it, Alex turning to me.

"I know this is tough, but you'll make the right decision" He hugs me, kissing my forehead. He unlocks his door and walks inside leaving me alone in the hallway. I spend an unknown amount of time in the hallway before I finally unlock the door to my room, Austin frantically pacing.

"There you are! Jesus" He breathes out in relief, wrapping his arms around me "I didn't know where you went, and you left your phone here and I was worried" He kisses my lips softly, and I lean my head against his chest. I wrap my arms around him tightly, which he doesn't seem to mind as he places multiple kisses on my head.

"I just went for a walk" I mumble, climbing back into bed "Have a lot to think about"

"Do you want to talk about it?" He asks, climbing into bed beside me.

"No, I'm fine. I think I have it cleared up at bit" I shake my head, and he wraps his arm around me, pulling me into his chest.

"Okay, well you know I'm here if you need me" He kisses my forehead, and I smile.

"I'll miss you" I say, and he smiles.

"I'll miss you too. But I'll call you as often as I can"

"But, what about the time difference?" I ask, and he sighs.

"I didn't think about that. But I'll be 5 hours ahead, so there isn't much to worry about. I'll keep an eye on the time, and call you when I know you're not busy" He says and I frown.

"Okay"

"Don't be sad" He sighs "I'll be back before you know it. Now go to sleep"

"Hey, where are you going?" Austin asks, his bags sitting in the hallway.

"I'll just be a second. I swear, I'll be back before you leave" I kiss his cheek.

"Parker!" He calls after me, as I run down the hallway.

"I swear!" I yell back, running out of the residence hall. I didn't want to tell him, but Aiden called, telling me he wanted to talk. I sprinted to his frat house, checking the time to see how long I can stay until Austin leaves. I only have an hour until he leaves, and knowing Aiden he talks in circles until he finally says what he needs to say.

"Hey" I run into his room, catching my breath.

"Hey, did you run here?" He asks, and I nod.

"Don't ask why" I shake my head.

"Okay, well, I was hoping we could hang out. Maybe get some breakfast" He suggests.

"Right now, right now?"

"Uh, yeah" He nods.

"I really need to be some-"

"Did I do something wrong?" He cuts me off to ask.

"What do you mean?"

"Well, you've acted like you want nothing to do with me for a while now, and I've been giving you space and haven't brought it up, but it bothers me a lot" He sighs "I don't want to lose you"

"You did nothing wrong" I shake my head "I did"

"What?"

"Nothing, I have been distant lately and I'm sorry" I sigh, wrapping my arms around him.

"So, breakfast?"

/Austin/

"She'll be here" AC pats my shoulder as I check my phone for the millionth time. I've called her, and it goes straight to voicemail, I've texted her and she hasn't responded.

"My plane boards in 2 minutes, she's not coming" I shake my head.

"She swore didn't she?"

"Doesn't matter. She can't make it here in two- now one- minute" I sigh, standing up and throwing my bag over my shoulder.

"Flight 367A to Dublin, Ireland is now boarding. Please make your way through security" A voice says over the intercom.

"She swore though right?" I huff, and AC looks at me apologetically.

"I'm sure she had a reason..." He trails off.

"Too bad, I'm not in the mood for a bullshit story" I shrug "I'll see you when I get back" I wave, walking through security. I get on the plane, sitting down in my seat, thankful I actually got a first class seat. Thank you Miami University.

I pull out my phone to turn it on airplane mode, when a text shows up on my screen.

From: P🍀
I'm so sorry...

I let out a loud huff, and turn my phone on airplane mode, getting ready for my long flight to Ireland.
