ex - j.g

twenty two;

isabelle;

jack's been busy the past couple weeks with music and hanging out with johnson and all the other guys.

tomorrow i'm leaving omaha to go back to la. jack said he was going to pick me up from the airport, but then told me that he couldn't because he has a meeting with johnson, so nate or sammy are picking me up.

"isabelle?" alex snapped her fingers in front of my face.

i hum, "yeah?"

"did you not hear what i asked?" she makes her usual 'duh' face.

"no sorry, i didn't. can you repeat it?" i ask her as she sits on the couch with me.

"do you want me to come to los angeles with you?" she asks and i shake my head immediately.

"it's okay, alex, i'm gonna see jack and everyone else. besides." i shrug, "i have to get back to work anyway."

"alright, whatever you say. i'm driving you to the airport though." i smile at her words and nod.

"deal."

>>

"i'll miss you." alexandra says, as her eyes begin to tear up.

"stop, don't make me cry." i whine, "i'll miss you too, though."

"call me everyday! you realize we are the last official piece of our family left. mom and dad can't baby us, so we have to baby each other. and i can't have my sister abandon me-"

"stop it, alex, please? calm down. i won't abandon you, and i will call you and text you, everyday. promise." i smile and hug her tight.

"alright, alright. go get on the plane, and do not make any bad decisions!" she sternly says.

"will do. love you!" i loudly say, as i begin to walk away and to the specific gate to start my way back to la.

only a few hours later, i was back.

when i got off the plane, i turned my phone off airplane mode, and saw a flow of notifications pop up.

messages from jack, sammy, jack's mom and alexandra flooded in.

from jack:
