**HAYES' POV**

When we got home from fireworks it was about 11:00. I was tired and so was Alyssa. We unlocked the hotel room door and walked inside. The hotel air hitting my face with every step I took inside. I plopped myself on the bed with my head on the board. I started scrolling through Instagram and Alyssa hopped up next to me.

"Tonight was fun." She said, playing with her thumbs. I looked over at her.

"Is something wrong?" I asked. She shook her head.

"No. I'm just tired." She said, getting under the covers and turning so she could see my phone. I began scrolling through Instagram and I came across a picture.

"Look." I said, smiling uncontrollably at the picture as I showed her. She smiled big.

"Who put that on?" She asked. Right then, Nash walked into the room. I pointed at him. She giggled. "Thanks for putting the picture on." She said. He nodded.

The picture was the picture of me and her in front of the fireworks, kissing. We looked really cute to be honest. She was shorter than me which made it even better and my arms were perfectly around her. I couldn't help but keep smiling.

I set my phone down on the floor and plugged it into the charger. Alyssa snuggled by me as I laid down under the covers. I wrapped my arms around her and kissed her nose.

"You're prefect." I whispered, looking at her face. She have me a small smile and blushed. She put her head in my chest and lied there for a minute.

"Only three more days." She said sadly. I frowned.

"Let's make it the best ones." I replied, pushing a piece of hair behind her ear. I gave her one last kiss on the lips and shut my eyes.

"Goodnight." I whispered.

"Love you." She replied.

"I love you too." I said, pulling her closer to me.

**ALYSSA'S POV**

I tossed and turned all night. I just couldn't sleep. Around 3:50 AM I hopped out of bed and went into the bathroom. The cold tiles made my feet turn a white color. I turned on the bath and added some bubbles. I then stripped down and got in. I just sat there and thought about everything.

After sitting in the tub for about fourth five minutes, I got out. I put my pajamas on and walked back into the big part of the room. It was only 4:45 so I lied back down next to Hayes. I looked at him. He was peacefully sleeping, that's when I broke down. I put my hands over my eyes and rolled over so I would wake him up. But I failed.

"Alyssa, is that you?" He whispered. I didn't answer, just laid there. I sniffled really loud. "Alyssa." He said, getting frustrated. "Turn over." He commanded. I shook my head. "What's wrong?" He asked. "Just let me see you." He pleaded. I gave in and rolled over, showing my tear stained face. "Why are you crying?" He asked, his face falling.

"What if we aren't this close when we go back home." I said, not wanting to look at him. Then he looked...almost, angry?

"Alyssa. Why are you crying about this? We will be just as close. We will have a movie night every week and we will still see each other all the time. There is nothing to worry about. I'll always talk to you after school and everything will be alright." He whispered, wiping away some tears that were falling. "Now go to sleep." He said. He pulled me close again and we both drifted off to sleep.

I woke up in an empty bed.

"Finally!" Brent yelled as I sat up.
