Anna's P.O.V.

Today was the day. The day that will change everything. I'm leaving Liverpool behind, and starting a some-what new life in the Big Apple. I couldn't believe that I was suddenly leaving the lads. I loved them all so much. And it killed me to know that I won't be able to support them in Hamburg.

As I was finishing myself up, I heard a knock on the door. That must be the lads. All of them were picking me up to go to the airport. Well, except for Stu and Pete. Stu had something to do at home, I heard, and Pete was somewhere in a pub, like always. It's a shame, though, but I don't mind.

"Coming!" I shouted down the stairs. Oh, how I hate being late.
"Anna? I don't mean to rush you or anything, but we're going to miss the plane if you don't hurry." Paul bellowed as he opened the front door.
"Okay, Paul. I'm just about ready, just let me get my suitcase and I'm in my way!"
"Sounds fine, we'll be waiting in the car." After that, he closed the door and headed to the rest of the lads.

The car ride was nice and relaxing, but I, for once, was being torn apart inside. I didn't really want to leave. I was leaving all my friends, all my memories behind in Liverpool. But then again, I was going to New York to pursue my dream, wasn't I?

None of us owned a car, so we just ordered a taxi to the airport. Paul sat in the front, while I sat in between John and George. George held my hand the whole time there. He always have me a reassuring squeeze just to make sure that it's okay. I rested my head on his shoulder as I was beginning to doze off. I could always see John looking at the two of us in the corner of my eye. I've always wondered, was he jealous of George? But whenever I tried to look at him somehow, he just pretended as if nothing had ever happened.

A while had passed, and we were now in the airport in front of the gate. All of the boys lined up to say all their goodbyes. I'll miss them a lot because with each one of them, there was some kind of small relationship between us.
Paul came first, and I could already tell that he was tearing up.
"Anna, I hope this isn't our last goodbye. I'm really gonna miss you. You're always gonna be my best friend." Tears were falling down my cheeks now, and Paul took me into a heart warming hug. "I'll always love you, Annie." He whispered into my ear.
Next came John. I was quite nervous what he might say or do, since I wasn't sure what was going on with him. "Anna, um..." He scratched the back of his neck like he always did out of nervousness. "I- I can't believe you're really leaving." He chuckled a bit. "I'm gonna miss you tonnes. You can't even imagine. I've always loved you with all my heart. And I know that I might have made a mistake, but I hope that there'll be a way to fix it somehow. Just know that I'm always here for you." I nodded, not being able to say anything from all the crying. I hugged him tightly, remembering all the things that I've done with him.
After he let go, he smiled at me. "Don't forget to ring me when you've come to visit." He winked. After that, he went to stand with Paul and cry himself out.
I'm really gonna miss these knuckle heads.

George came last, with his red, swollen eyes from crying. Poor little George.
He stepped closer to me. He didn't say a word at first, but just threw himself on me into a hug. I was surprised by the action at the start, but then buried my face into his shoulder. "Don't ever let me go." He weeped. I lifted my head to look into his, deep brown eyes. Oh, how I'm going to miss him. We stared at each other like that for a moment, until he passionately pressed his lips onto mine. I never wanted this to end. It was the perfect moment I have ever had.
Suddenly, he let go. "Go, Anna, so you won't miss your flight. Don't forget to call me when you land. I love you, my dearest." He gave me one last peck on the lips, until Paul came and patted his shoulder. "Come on, mate. You wouldn't want to let the plane leave her behind." He nodded, and with that, they started to leave. "I love you," he whispered behind his shoulder to me. Paul winked at me one last time before they turned around to finally leave.

I took in a deep breath, and headed for the plane. They were already boarding, so I immediately got inside. I sat by the window, and reminisced of all the memories I shared with the lads. Once the plane took off, I started to fall asleep.

That's when a new life was ahead of me.
