(READ PART 1 FIRST!!)

I chose following my beliefs.. Now I'm almost done packing. I honestly didn't think they were serious.. but they were.. I was being forced to leave.

But for some reason I didn't seem to care.. I cried for only about 30 seconds before grabbing my older sister's old suitcase, filling it with my clothes and stuffing the rest of my things into separate bags. My Toothless, my Whatzit, my kitten pillow, jewelry box with its key, camera, Gravity Falls figurines, DS, white with black vine print blanket covers and pillow case, and-

I suddenly remember something I've had for years. She was still worn from being cuddled since 3 years of age or younger, some her short brown fur would be in knots, I'd have to re-stuff her around her chest and run her through the washer and dryer. But I can do that later.

I run out of my room back to my old room. I now live in half of what was the garage while it was divided in half with Jacey in the other half and old stuff was being kept in me and my younger sister's, Jacey's, old room. I search through everything until I find the tiny brown bundle with a pink daisy stitched under the left foot, her brown round bead eyes shining and herself in better condition than I interpreted.

"Hello Daisy, old girl.." I mumble with a smile, picking up the teddy bear in a hug, "I've missed you.."

I used to do everything with this bear. I carried her everywhere and slept with her every night. I still have a fear of the dark, and the occasional storm never helped..

I carry her back to my room and glance at my phone..

And the list went on.. I'd written about having to make the desicion on a lot of my message boards.. But not my choice just yet.. Jess must be wondering.. She might even be worried since I hadn't talked to her yet.. But I just couldn't! Not yet!

I finish packing and my parents helped carry my bags out to mom's car. They drove me all the way to the airport, me staring at my phone as Jess's messages and even some apologies.. Just rolled in nonstop.. It was hard not to cry as I asked exactly where her address is. She told me without a second thought and I told her I'd talk to her tomorrow, claiming I was too stressed at the moment to role-play Harry Potter or Undertale or My little Pony. She told me I could take all the time I needed to cool down and it made me smile; knowing she cared enough about me that she wouldn't talk to me if I needed it.. And I needed it..

We got there quicker than I thought and some people took my bags to board them on the plane. I said my good-byes to them and went in the airport. And you can only imagine my excitement when they announced boardings for passengers going to Eastern England.. I grabbed my carry-on in one hand and Daisy in my other. When I got on the plane, I sat towards the middle by the window. It was my first time flying and I kept a barf bag handy..

Luckily I fell asleep in the first ten minutes. I woke up while it was very dark outside and we were landing. It was raining.. As we (me and the other passengers) were leaving the plane, I was able to give some attendants the address they could bring my bags to. Jess's address.

I carried my bag I had on the plane, Daisy now tucked in it to keep her dry, and got directions to get to her house. I rode a taxi to Jess's house and got out looking up at the house. It was dark but I saw one light on on the second floor and one in what I assumed was the living room. It was about 3AM right now.. It would be 9PM previous day in Texas seeing as they're 6 hours behind from here. I soon was drenched and cold from the rain so I gathered the courage to go up.. And knock on the front door..

My heart was pounding.. And I almost couldn't breathe.. I heard movement behind the door and felt I'd pass out..

Her mom (Chrisie was it? I can't remember) opened the door and gaped at me. I smiled sheepishly and waved slightly, "H-Hi Mrs. T-Tucker.." I stammered and she immediately pulled me inside, fussing over if I was sick or alright or why I was there. I explained everything to her, adding in that Jess didn't know I was here..

She ordered me to go take a nice warm shower and she'd set up a makeshift bed on the couch. I did as told and went to find the bathroom. I spent an hour in there and just put on a long black shirt with some underwear and fluffy pink socks before going downstairs. Chrisie had kept her word and there were sheets strewn over the couch with some pillows. I smiled and laid down, immediately falling asleep and dreaming of tomorrow..

Time skip to morning at about 7AM

I had woke up earlier than everyone so I decided to make egg sandwiches for when Jess and her family woke up. (I don't know exactly her family, I've only formerly met her parents and she doesn't talk about siblings much) I've been told I make the best eggs in Palacios. My secret? Just a hint of Old Bay seasoning, extra pepper, and even a pinch of salt with a dollop of milk. And my eggs aren't scrambled.

Chrisie and Jess's dad had come down and were eating while I was making Jess's breakfast, her cat rubbing against my leg and purring. She'd slept with me all night last night.. I heard footsteps and a soft, sweet tone of a voice come downstairs. It made the two adults turn their heads and caused me to freeze up, turning off the stove. My heart was going a million miles per second..

"Mum, what are you cooking that smells so good.." she asked and stopped in the doorway to the kitchen. I slowly looked over my shoulder at her, turning fully around after. She had a firm grip on the doorway in her left had and her right hand covering her mouth. She looked about to cry, and she did start crying.. I was still in shock that I was finally meeting her in person..

I suddenly go over to her, my legs heavy and numb as I wrap my arms around her in a tender hug. She cries semi-loudly on my shoulder while tears just silently fall down my cheeks.. I was holding her.. She's right here, in my arms... We're finally together.. We're not continents or oceans or even feet apart.. I'm here with her, hugging her..

She smells like violets and freshly watered lawn grass and her hair smelled like lavender.. I stroke her hair and it's so soft that I just want to pet her forever.. Her skin was so smooth and warm.. I could feel her heartbeat against mine, hear her breathing, see every tiny detail in her baby blue eyes.. And I've never been happier.. She was still crying and I shush her, slowly calming her.. "shhhh, Jessy.." I whisper, rocking us slightly..

"I'm home now..."
