I Put My Heart Before My Mind

Just the 3 of us

**Jenna's POV**

I woke up and saw that Ryan was already up. I went to Axel's room to find Ryan putting Axel in fresh clothes.

"Are you ready?" I asked

"Almost. Are you?" He asked

"Yeah, whenever you are" I told him

Ryan put Axel in his carrier then told A.J. and Carter bye, then we headed to the airport.

Once we got there Ryan got all his suitcases and I took Axel out of his carrier and wrapped him in a blanket.

"Hey guys" I told everyone

"Hey Jenna" Chris said coming over to me.

"What's up?" I asked

"Can I told Axel for a while since I won't see him for a few weeks?" Chris asked

I gave Axel to Chris, then he went to Ricky, then Vinny, then Ghost, then to Ryan.

"Alright, I gotta go." Ryan said holding Axel close and kissing his head

I took Axel from Ryan, then we kissed

"I'll see you soon" he whispered against my lips then walked away to get on his plane

I just turned around and walked out refusing to look Jamie and Kylie in the eyes as tears were running down my face. My other half just left me. My best friend. He's gone for the next 7 weeks. I don't know what I'm gonna do without him. It'll be hard without him, for sure, but we'll make it through somehow. I got my phone out and called my mom.

Hello?

Hey, mom

What's wrong, Jenna?

I just dropped Ryan off at the airport, and I'm sad

Oh, I see. Are you ok?

"Yeah, I just needed to talk to my mom" I told her.

I'm glad I'll get to see my mom next week. I've really been missing her.

I got back to the house and took Axel inside. I got him out of his carrier and walked into the kitchen

"Hey what's up?" Zoey asked

"I just dropped Ryan off at the airport" I told her

"Oh, I'm sorry. I know you'll miss him"

"Yeah, do you want me to make us pancakes?" I asked

"That'd be awesome! Do you want me to help?"

"Uh, do you wanna keep Axel entertained while I cook?" I asked

"Yes! Gimme little man" she said reaching for Axel

I handed Axel to her and started cooking.

"So, are we going to L.A. at all while we're in California?" Zoey asked

"I wasn't planning on it. Do you wanna go?" I asked

"No, I don't need to go. I just thought your parents would want to see Axel."

"They said they would drive to where we are. They want some time away." I told her

"Cool. So, MIW went to Europe for 2 weeks then they'll tour here for 5 right?" Zoey asked

"Yeah, so we'll see Ryan in 2 weeks."

"Wow, at least y'all can Skype so he can see and talk to Axel."

"Yeah, but Axel will miss Ryan getting him up and everything so, we'll see how Axel adjusts" I told her finishing the food

"True"
