"goodbye, calum."

Friday.

It's currently 3 in the morning, I got the earliest flight since I didn't want to deal with running into Calum. Before I left the hotel, I went to Luke's and Michael's room to say goodbye.

Ashton was on the couch sleeping since he knew I would be coming early to say goodbye. I also didn't want to go into his and Calum's room because I didn't want to wake up Cal.

"Guys, wake up," I poked at each boys' head until they were awake.

"This is really happening, huh?" Ashton rubbed his eyes and yawned.

"Yeah, I'm sorry," I mumble.

"We understand, come here, sis," Luke pulled me into a hug. They other boys came and joined, the final goodbye hug.

"Please be nice to your new manager, don't drag her around, have patience," I laughed slightly at the memory of the boys rushing me around.

"We will try, but no promises can be made," Mikey laughed. I pulled my phone out my pocket and looked at the time, 3:20 AM.

"I have to go soon," my eyes begin to water and I rub them before any tears can slip. "Get some sleep, it's too early for you guys and you have an interview later," I give a small smile and they pulled me into one last group hug.

"We love you, Lupe," the spoke in unison.

"I love you too, guys," I pull away, grabbing my bags aloneg with Isabell's things and walked over to the door. "Bye guys," I give a small wave before leaving the hotel room. Once I get down to the lobby, I turned in my room key and outside to the uber that was waitin on me.

Once I had gotten to the airport and checked in all my bags, it was 4:00 AM. I still had and hour to kill. I roamed around the airport looking for something to eat with my backpack on my shoulder.

I had ordered some McDonald's breakfast when I got a phone call, I answered without looking at the caller ID.

"Why didn't you say goodbye?"

It was Calum.

"We weren't talking," I chewed on my pancakes.

"You still could have said goodbye," he sighed, I can picture his hand running through his hair.

"Goodbye, Calum," I mumbled and hung up before he could reply.

"Flight #3304, LAX to Chicago, Midway is now boarding," was heard over the intercom. I threw out my trash and got in line to board. I gave my boarding pass to the male checking them in and boarded the plane, sitting at a window seat.

-

"Welcome to Chitown, hope you ride with us again," I got my backpack and walked off the plane. I walked to baggage claim and got my luggages, I stood at the entrance looking for my mom. She claimed that she would be picking me up from the airport.

"Lupe!" I looked over to where I heard my name coming from and I see my mom waving. I smiled at her and pulled my luggages, then walked over to her. "I missed you so much," she pulled me into a hug and I returned immediately.

"I missed you too," I choked up in her shoulder.

"Let's go home, everyone is waiting for you," she pulled away and took some of my luggages and helped me put them in the trunk of the car.

-

"Your favorite sister has returned!" I shouted as I entered my home. I heard a stampede of feet run to the door and I'm embraced by a family hug. "I missed you guys so much."

"We missed you more, Lupe," my oldest brother commented. "Let's eat, mom bought tamales," we pulled away and I heard my stomach growl.

"Yes please," I pick up my baby sister, carrying her as we get over to the kitchen and serve ourselves. I got my food and sat at the table, my baby sister sitting on my lap as I fed her tiny pieces.

"So, how was the tour?" my mom asked.

"It was fun, I brought you guys things," I smiled.

"Isabell's mom is having the funeral sunday," my mom added.

"Okay," I nodded my head slowly. I didn't want to think about her funeral right now, I have to get my life in order. School is almost over and I'll be on summer break and I can go back to my high school for my senior year.

They continued to talk about random things while I seemed to zone out. Their voices sounded like mumbles to me, I thought about the boys. How Calum must have beat them to tell him that I left already.

"Hey, I'm going to do some unpacking, thanks for the food," I gave the baby to my mom and cleaned up after myself. I ran up the stars and walked into my room. It looked the same, it was still clean since I left everything neat.

I got out my macbook and decided to facetime the boys, Luke texted me earlier saying that Calum locked himself in his room. So it would only be him, Mikey, and Ash. I made the facetime called and they immediately answered.

"Hey guys!" I wave at them, then getting my luggage and start sorting through the items of clothing.

"Hey, Lupe!"

"How was the plane ride?" Luke pushed Michael over so he could be seen in the camera.

"It was fine, nothing new," I shrug. We continued to talk for a while as I put away my clothes and packed up Isabell's clothes neatly in a box to take back to her mom tomorrow.

"Calum was banging on your door asking for forgiveness," Ashton blurted. "What happened between you two?"

"Once we got back from the restaurant when I told you guys I would be leaving, I went over to Calum's room," my eyes begin to water at the memory. "I caught him literally fucking a girl and he claimed that he was lonely cause I pushed him alway."

"Oh, Lupe," their eyes were full of sadness and pity.

"It's whatever, we aren't together and I want to start fresh," I wipe away my tears and nodded.

"We're still here for you."

"I know, I'll talk to you guys later, it's late over here," we said our goodbyes and hung up. I laid in bed, staring at my ceiling. The same Baymax in the Buzz Lighteryear costume was up there with pictures of Isabell and I around it.

"I miss you."

I missed Isabell and Calum. They both meant everything to me, but things change.

"Goodnight," I heard a whisper or at least I thought I did. It could have been the wind since no one is actually in my room.
