A couple of days after the Secret Santa stream, I decided to book a flight home and spend Christmas, and a while, with my family in England. So on the morning of the 23rd, I got all the guys up extra early so I could say goodbye to them and get a lift to the airport. Eddie, Steven and James all wanted to drop me off at the airport, so I said goodbye to the others before hand at the house. I gave Dan, Seamus and Jordan massive hugs and a small gift each, which they moaned about because I made them feel bad for not getting me one but I didn't mind. Aleks was waiting in the hall to say goodbye to me, so when I found him he instantly engulfed me in his arms.
"I'm really sorry for all the shit I caused, Jess," I could of sworn he was crying, "I'm going to miss you so much." His arms were wrapped so tightly around me that I was finding it hard to breath. I wriggled out of his grasp, and took a step back, taking in the sadness on his face.
"It's forgotten, don't worry," I gave him sweet smile, "And I will come back and visit, and we can Skype!" His face lightened up at this. I gave him once last hug and kissed his cheek before rushing out the door, yelling '"BYE!!!!", then jumped in the car with the other three. I sat in the back with James on the way to the airport, him not failing to make me laugh and take my mind off the fact that I won't see any of them for a while. We were laughing and joking around until we reached the airport. They helped me book in, and sat with me until my flight got called. Sadness suddenly invaded every inch of my body as I stood up.
"Come here Jess," James held his arms open and I couldn't resist that offer, smuggling into him, "I'll miss you kid." I usually hated it when he called me 'kid' but I knew I would miss it when I got back to England.
"I'll miss you too!" I kissed his cheek, him pulling me into another hug. Next up was Eddie and I knew it wouldn't be easy saying goodbye. I mean he was the reason I visited them in the first place. I could feel the tears beginning to form in the corners of my eyes. Clearly noticing his wrapped his arms around me.
"Don't cry Jessbear. Don't be sad. You'll be back here in no time!" Little did he know I wasn't planning on coming back for a good few months. I needed to focus on myself for a while, without the drama.
"I'll miss you so fucking much Eddie. You've been my best friend and boyfriend and now you'll be half way across the world again. I don't want to leave with it being awkward between us, I'd hate myself." Tears were full on streaming down my face by this point.
"Shhh," He tightened the hug, "I'll call and skype you all the time. We will ALWAYS be best friends and I will always love you, even when you beat my ass at smite!" I managed to laugh at that, pulling away from his body and smiling a little. Before I had even looked at Steven, I had managed to work myself up again. He pulled me over to the side, so the others couldn't hear us.
"St..Steven..." I couldn't even speak. Of all the guys he was the hardest to say goodbye too. He was the hardest to lie to about not coming back anytime soon. I wrapped myself around his torso, his fingers going straight to my hair, him knowing I calm down when people play with my hair. After crying into his chest for a minute or two, his hands moved from my hair to my cheeks. He used his thumbs to wipe away my tears, 'Shh'ing me in the process.
"Please don't cry," He sighed, "I'll come visit you in England, I promise. I lost you once before and I'm not going to lose you again." My bottom lip began to quiver at him mentioning that but then it happened. He placed his soft lips against mine. It wasn't a long kiss but my god it was powerful. I felt my body relax and lips melt into his. It was then I knew I was still hopelessly in love with him.
"Jess... I lo..." He pulled away.
"Jess your flight has been called!" Eddie yelled from a few metres away, causing me to look at the board. 'Boarding' was written next to my flight. I felt Steven's arms pull away from me, my attention turning back to him. I wanted him to finish his sentence. I wanted him to tell me he loved me to.
"I guess you should be going..." I felt disappointed and sad. I thought I wouldn't hear it from his lips for a while, or even ever. Without another word, only a small wave, I left to find my gate. I left to go home.
