*Mack's POV*

The sound of my alarm clock this morning was literally the worst sound I've ever heard. Today is the day I leave Harry. I, surprisingly, actually got sleep last night. I'm guessing it's because the day before I got absolutely no sleep, and all the crying yesterday wore me out. I rolled out of bed and so did Harry. We trotted down to the kitchen and everyone was down there working on a special breakfast for me. I almost started crying again, but I promised today I'd try to be a little stronger. We all ate in silence and I went upstairs to get ready for my flight. Tom didn't tell me until yesterday that I'd be flying to Hollywood to pursue my dream. Harry and the boys would be there in a couple of weeks, so that made me happy. I put on some leggings, and Harry's Jack Wills hoodie. I hope he's cool with me taking it, 'cause I'm taking it either way. I put on some tennis shoes and walked downstairs. The boys had already carried all of my bags downstairs. The girls weren't going to the airport because they had some job they had to go too, so I said my goodbye's to them at the hotel. I hugged Eleanor & Perrie first. We were all crying. It was one Estrogen filled hot mess.

"I am so blessed to have met you guys! You're wonderful and I can't wait to see you all again!" I said pulling away from the hug.

"We can't wait to buy your album. It's going to be so good and you're so freaking talented and we love you so so much!" Eleanor said, Perrie agreeing. We hugged one more time before I went to Katie. We bursted into tears as we fell into each others arms.

"Thank you, for being the bestest friend a girl could ever have." I said, laughing through the tears.

"It's not going to be the same without you. I am so proud of you though."

I smiled at everything she said. She's been my best friend for years and things are going to be so different not having her around.

"Oh wait! I have something for you!" she said as she ran to her's and Liam's room. She returned, and handed me a little box.

"We always said we were going to get these and we never did."

I opened up the box and inside was a little heart locket. It had a rose charm on it, and when I opened it up, one side was the first picture her and I took together and the other side had my name on it. I smiled, and cried, and hugged her. She had a matching one. I would seriously keep this forever. I put it on, and we left. The whole car ride to the airport was awful. It was silent, and I didn't want to leave. I stared out the window the whole time. Harry was driving, and the rest of the boys were in the back. Once we got to the airport, getting everything checked for me to get on the plane seemed to take forever. But once it was all done, I wanted it to start over again, because now I have to leave.

"Flight 493, please go to boarding. I hugged all of the boys, taking horrible selfies with them all. Niall stopped me after our picture.

"Hey, I want you to have this." He pulled his guitar out from behind all of my bags and I broke into tears.

"Niall... This is your favorite guitar. I can't possibly take this. You play it everyday. It's your baby."

"And you're my best friend." All the boys looked insulted.

"One of them anyway." we both laughed. I took the guitar and cried into his shirt before he let me out of his grip and lead me over to Harry. Harry & I stared at each other for what felt like forever. I decided to break the silence.

"I don't even... Know what to say." Tears rolled down both of our faces and he pulled me into a hug.

"I love you Mack. Don't you ever, ever forget that. You hear me?" I nodded.
