Phoenix PoV
It's Monday...the last night I get to spend with him for six months is over....I don't want him to leave, but I know he has to. That's the hardest part. I roll over and trace his back tattoo with my finger,
"Hey, you already awake?" He says with a soft voice, he just woke up I'm guessing.
"Yeah..." It's the only word I can force out. He rolls over and holds me in his arms, it feels so good. I feel so safe, and warm.
"Please don't leave" I can feel the waterfalls already starting to take place. He kisses me so softly and strokes my back,
"I wish I could just stay here with you"
"We could run away" he laughs
"We could! And then get married in some exotic island" I start to smile,
"Yeah! And then have really cute island twins!" I say imaging us on some island with twin kids running around us and girls in grass skirts with flower crowns dancing around us...I laugh to my self.

Pete PoV
One day, we will have all of that. I think to myself. We fall asleep again, her in my arms, I've never been more happy in my life.

Phoenix PoV
We wake up to the alarm and rush to get dressed, I push him into the car before he's late, he's always late. On the drive to the airport we are silent, he holds my hand all the way but it doesn't feel like a happy holding hands, it feels like a titanic I will never let go kind of hand hold.

When we get to the airport he jumps out of the car to greet his band and his staff, I follow and introduce myself to everyone.
"Damn petey, you struck gold!" A guy with crazy curly hair wearing beige ish shorts and a very baggy t shirt, comes up to Pete and hugs him.
"Phee this is dirty!" Fitting name.
"Dirty this is-"
"Phoenix Wolfe, the Phoenix Wolfe!" He strolls over and takes my hand and then bows down, I laugh as he kisses my hand.
"How do you know my name?" I ask
"OOHH well! Your lovely man has treated me to a text every night about how wonderful you are!" He says while winking at Pete,
"Oh yeah...I um.." He blushes, aww.
Finally after all the introductions they all head to the terminal, Pete stays behind.

Pete PoV
This is it. I don't want to leave her, I wish her mother would just hurry up and heal so I can take her with me. I did not just think that.
She turns to me, tears in her eyes. I pick her up and spin her round, just like I did when I first met her...
"I'm gunna miss you" she says into my shoulder as I put her down,
"I'm gunna miss you so much Phee"
We hug for what seems like forever until she breaks off and kisses me with so much passion we actually fall over! After laughing we sit up.
"I really love you Peter wentz" she says as I help her up and bring her close,
"I really really love you Phoenix Wolfe"
"I wish you didn't have to go, but I know you have to get money for your future" she says looking at her shoes. I lift her head with my hand and kiss her gently,
"Don't you mean our future" I smile, she smiles back...
"OK LOVERS TIME TO BREAK IT UP!" Dirty.

Phoenix PoV
As we kiss for the last time I feel both mine and his tears on my cheeks, then when we break apart I feel something cold around my neck. I open my eyes to see Pete putting my necklace on me again...except it's not the same one, this one is in the shape of a bat with a heart inside of it.
"Why a bat?" I ask him
"Because our hotel was called the midnight bat" he smiles with tears still down his cheeks.
I flip it over and it has the initials PW on the back again, I look and he has a matching one around his neck too. I really love him.
"NOW PETE! WERE GUNNA MISS THE PLANE!" Dirty is starting to get on my nerves.

He kisses me one last time and then he's off, as I watch him walk away, he turns round and gives me the stupidly attractive grin and then he's in the airport. My tears start flooding, then I feel a hand on my shoulder. I spin around and see Tyler standing behind me,
"Lizzie called, said it was an emergency" he smiles. I leap into his arms and cry for what seems like hours... When I bring my head up his t shirt is covered in tears.
"Better?" He says
"Much!"
"Good then can we PLEASE go to the corner cafe? I need my catchup with my best friend!"
"Yes that would be great!" I say with my hand clutching my new necklace.
"Nice necklace" I burst into tears again as he says it, he laughs as he puts his arm around me and walks me to the car.
"Hey I met this girl called Jenna who I think you will LOVE!.." He goes on, and I listen. I'm more of a listener than a talker, which is good because he's more of a talker.
