HAYES' POV

"Cya tomorrow." I smiled and waved to my boss as I walked out the door and to my jeep.

I then drove back home..

"Hey, babe." I smiled and kissed Aria, my girlfriend.

"Hey, how was work?" She asked.

"Good, what did you do today?" I asked.

"Nothing, I went through a box I found in out closet." She smiled.

"What was in it?" I asked.

"Some pictures. Who's this?" She asked and held up a picture of me and Liz kissing..

I forgot I had that..

"Oh, that's an ex from about 3 years ago." I said and grabbed the picture.

"Why did you keep it?" She asked.

"Because I was very close to her. Is there something wrong with that?" I asked.

"No, but I want you to get rid of the picture." She angrily said.

"No, it's just a stupid picture." I said.

"Why, do you still like her?" She yelled.

"No! She's just an old friend!" I yelled.

She just rolled her eyes and walked away.

It's been forever since I've seen her.

"I'm gonna miss you so much." I said as I hugged Liz.

"I'm gonna miss you more." She said then a tear rolled down her cheek.

"Don't cry." I wiped away her tears.

"I'm just really gonna miss you." She giggled.

"Please don't forget about me." She said.

"I won't, I promise." I said and have another big hug before my hate got called.

"Gate 372 is now boarding." The speaker said.

"Cya later, guys." I smiled and walked away.

I glanced at them once more and saw Liz run up to Nash crying.

God, I'm gonna miss her so much!

~ End Of Flash Back

Man, I promised her that I wouldn't forget about her.

It's been over a year since we've talked, messaged, FaceTimed.

It's crazy how quickly someone you love drift away.

I miss my family too.

Maybe I'm should go visit them. As a surprise.

And then they can meet Aria.

Its not a bad idea..
