Beep. Beep. Beep.
Cheyenne groaned as her alarm went off. She reached for her phone to turn it off, checking the time as she did so. 3:30 a.m.
Why the fuck-? She thought to herself and then suddenly she was squealing, dropping her phone as she threw the covers off. Today was the day of her flight. Her flight to Australia. Her flight to Dani. Cheyenne picked her phone off of the ground and messaged Dani "AHDHSZHADHA I'M UP HOLLA"
She quickly got a response.
"FLIPPIN FINALLY I'M SCREAMGIN"
"WHAT SHOULD I WEAR OHG SJ GOD??!?!?"
"CLOTHES??"
"...really??" Cheyenne chuckled to herself before pulling off her pajamas and replacing them with her tie-dye shirt and skinny jeans. She fell while putting on her jeans because they were so tight and her clumsiness didn't help, but she couldn't care less. She and Dani continued to message as Cheyenne got ready. Her flight left at 9:30 but it took 3 hours to get to the airport. She woke up her roommate, Blair, at 4:30 and Cheyenne gathered her bags, quickly checking to make sure she had them all. They ran out to the car where then a tired Blair sat, tugging on a beanie to block the morning chill.
"You excited?" Cheyenne said with a huge smile on her face. She just got a glare in response.
"Fuck you. I'm so tired. Why'd you pick the earliest flight?" Blair groaned.
"I want to see Dani as soon as possible!"
"Fuck you and your stupid fucking cute relationship making me feel more single than I already am. Now shut up, we're going to Starbucks. It's 'buy one, get one free," Blair said as she turned up the radio volume to block out Cheyenne's voice. Cheyenne was practically bouncing in excitement, receiving the occasional sigh from Blair.
Finally, they reached the airport. Blair parked the car, turning it off. Cheyenne stared at her in confusion, tightening her grip on her coffee. "You're coming in with me?" She just figured Blair was just dropping her off and then going straight home.
"I may be a bit of a bitch, but this is a special moment for you. I'll take some pictures, wave goodbye as the plane takes off, message Dani while you're on the plane," Blair smiled and yawned. Cheyenne stared at her for a moment before lunging over to Blair's side of the car and giving her a huge hug.
"I love you! Thank you!"
"Save that for Dani. Now c'mon, there may be hot people in there."

The girls were sat on the uncomfortable airport chairs waiting for Cheyenne's flight to board. Blair was snoozing and Cheyenne was messaging Dani while reading one of the books she had brought with her for the long flight. Then a voice came on the speaker, "Flight 69 to Australia is now boarding."
Cheyenne shook Blair woke up resulting in Blair to mumble, "Kiss me, Evan!" Cheyenne laughed gently.
"Evan Peters, I presume?"
"Shut up..." Blair blushed. She realized Cheyenne was grabbing her bags. "You're boarding?" They stood up slowly.
Cheyenne nodded while softly smiling. "I'm going to miss you." Her eyes were getting misty and her voice got a bit tight.
"It's only two weeks, then you'll be back with Dani!" Cheyenne let out a sob in response. Blair's eyes starting tearing up as well. "Stop that! You're gonna make me cry!" Cheyenne tightly hugged Blair.
"See you then," Cheyenne said as she pulled away. They shared a smile and Cheyenne started walking towards the gate.
"Wait! I have to take a picture!" Cheyenne turned around and smiled as Blair snapped a few photos. "BYE!" Blair said as she frantically waved. Cheyenne waved back and walked to the gate, wiping away her tears and replacing it with a big smile.
