"Bye." Emercyn brings me into a huge hug, squeezing me so tightly. I began to feel as if I can't breathe and try to pry her off me but she wont let go.

"Em-ercyn. I can't. Breathe." I say in between every few breath. She lightens up the tightness but still doesn't let go.

The past three days Emercyn has been bugging me to stay. Telling me she would do anything in the world but I told her she needs to go be with Ethan. When I'd pack something, ten minutes later that thing would be unpacked because she literally does not want me to leave.

"Emercyn let her go now." Uncle Mark says.

"I can't." She says.

"Please." I beg. She lets go and frowns before I yell at her to smile. "Don't be sad Em. You're acting like we'll never see each other again." I explain to her.

"Well I mean who knows, your plane could crash and you could-"

"OKAY! Shut. Up." I roll my eyes, pushing her a bit before she could finish her crucial sentence.

She gives me a weak smile before we hug one last time and I have to go through the airport. I hug my uncle and my aunt before Emercyn hugs me AGAIN.

"Emercyn!" I whine.

"Just act like you love me for
three minutes." She pleads.

"I have. And I do love you I don't have to act. You're going to make
me miss my flight." I try to wiggle out of her grasp before tickling her which makes her finally let go.

"That's kinda the point." She huffs.

"Okay. Goodbye Em I love you. When you go to LA, tell the boys I love them." She rolls her eyes at
me.

"Or you could go with me and tell them yourself." She suggest.

"Not happening." I hum, picking up my carry on from off the floor.

"I'm not going to LA."

"Yes you are." I say as I begin to walk off. I hear her shout that she's not so I turn around. "AUNT MACY MAKE SURE SHE GOES TO LA!" I shout before waving them goodbye.

All I did the whole flight was play Plant Vs Zombies or think about Grayson. I know that game is so like two years ago but I can kick ass at it. I love it. It really did make time fly by.

As we touched down in Tulsa, it was around dinner time. I wait my turn to exit the plane and go towards baggage claim. I text my
mom that I am here and she pulls up in her familiar car.

"How was the flight?" She asks.

"Long. I'm exhausted." I groan.

"I know." She says and we pull away.

Apparently I fell asleep in the car because all of a sudden I am being shaken awake. I flutter my eyes open and see our house right in front of me. I stretch my sore body before getting out and grabbing my bag.

I practically drag it all inside from how exhausted I am and I of course and jumped on by Fiona. I pet her for a second before taking my stuff to my room and plopping on my bed.

"Honey?" I hear my mom say.

"Hmm." I hum. I shut my eyes and lay there, feeling numb.

"Can we talk?" She asks me. I nod my head and pat the empty side of my bed.

I feel the bed dip as she sits down next to me. She pats my leg as she does so and lets out a deep breath.

"I know you don't really want to talk about this but did Grayson have anything to do with why you moved here? I mean thats fine if so but it's not good to think it's okay to run from all your problems. Life is going to throw multiple at you and running away from them will not solve the problem but only complicate it more." Her voice flows through my ears.
