Chapter 18

Michael's POV

"Good bye, I will always love you Danni" is all I can manage to say before I walk away. The door closes behind me, I turn around and just stare at the door. Is this it? is this then end of Minni?

I walk down the pathway knowing the door won't open again. Tears sting my eyes. Before I know it tears stream down my face. I sit in my car, I can't see properly, tears causing my vision to blur. I hit the steering wheel to get my anger and sadness out, I hit it repeatedly, it's not working. I can't drive in this state, so I ring Ashton.

*ring ring, ring ring*

"Ashton" I cry

"Dude, what's wrong?" Ashton asks concerned.

"I'll tell you later. Pick me up. I can't drive in this state" I manage to say

"Okay be there in 10" Ashton says before he puts the phone down. I walk back up the path and sit on the door step waiting for Ashton. My head in my hands. What have I done?

When I see Ashton's headlight approach I stand up and walk to the curb. When he pulls up, I open the door, get in, and fasten my seatbelt without a word. He looks at me, he can clearly see I've been crying but doesn't say a word the whole journey.

When we get home, I get out the car and walk inside without a word and go straight to bed. What am I going to do without her? I lye in bed and turn my phone on to text her goodnight.

*me: goodnight beautiful, I love you xx*

I start to cry again sending that message knowing I won't see her beautiful face again for god knows how long. I cry myself to sleep for the next two hours. I'm awoken around 12am by a vibrating noise.

*Danni: goodnight. I love you. Never forget that Michael*

Reading this I start to cry again. Is this her version of goodbye?

"MIKE GET UP" I am awoken by Calum screaming me to get up. That's right. Today is the day I move half way across the world from my love. I groan and turn over putting my face further and further into my pillow.

"NO! IM NOT LEAVING HER" I shout back. I hear footsteps come upstairs. Calum storms through the door and sits on my bed.

"Close the door" I groan.

"Michael I know you don't want to leave her but you've got to see your family, they haven't seen you in ages, you need to go" I know he's right. I know I need to go but I don't want to.

The drive to the airport is the most painful drive I've even been in. Suitcases packed, tickets ready, plane ready, I'm going. Without her.

I check through security check without a word to anyone since this morning. Luke pats me on the back

"It will be alright you know?" he says softly. I nod and walk on. The wait for our plane to be called for boarding feels like years.

"Flight 998173 is now boarding at Gate 13" a woman announces. Great. I queue up waiting to get on the plane. As I get my passport checked I look back. She's not here. She's not coming. I walk through the long tube towards the plane. It's time to face facts. She's not coming. My heart breaks at the thought.

When will I see her next?
