A tear slipped down my cheek as I put my suitcase into the taxi. It was the end of my trip and I didn't want to leave. I looked at the boys as I closed the boot and smiled sadly.
"I'm going to miss you guys!" I said, sobbing.
We shared a long group hug as we cried. I gave them all lingering hugs afterwards before they left, leaving me and Andy alone. I held his face in my hands as he cried, wiping his tears away gently. He kissed my palm and placed his hands over mine. He sighed as he looked into my eyes.
"These have been some of the best few weeks of my life" he stated, "I just wish you didn't have to leave..."
"I know babe..." I frowned, "I'm sorry. I wish I could stay a bit longer but I've got--"
"Shh" he interrupted, "It's okay. We'll see each other again soon. Tour's in a couple of months as well, remember!"
I nod and pull him in for a hug. I cried into his shoulder, clutching at his jacket. He snaked his arms around my waist and planted kisses in my hair. I could feel his tears running down my scalp and cheek. We pulled away after ages and shared a passionate kiss.
"Never forget how much I love you" I said, wiping his eyes again.
"Only if you don't either" he teased, winking half heartedly.
"Bye" I whimpered, giving him one last peck on the cheek.
"Goodbye Kaitlin" he sighed sadly.
I quickly slipped into the taxi before I could change my mind and slammed the door shut. As the taxi drove away, I blew him a kiss and he blew one back, before waving. I sighed and leaned my head back against the seat as the tears slipped out of my eyes. My phone buzzed and Rye had posted on the group chat.
Rye: Thank you for such an amazing few weeks babe. We love you, and we miss you already xx

Me: Love you guys!!! So so much 😢❤️ See you soon 😭 xxxx Andy: ❤️😘 xxxxx
As soon as Andy's name appeared on the screen, I broke into a fit of sobs.
"Are you alright?" the driver asked.
"Yeah, I'm okay" I sighed, wiping my eyes.
I got out of the car once we arrived at the airport and the driver took my suitcase out for me.
"Have a safe flight" he said before getting back in the taxi and leaving.
I sighed again and dragged my suitcase inside. It was a long wait but finally, I finished the procedures and went to get food. Because my suitcase was so small, I didn't see the point in paying the extra money so I registered it as hand luggage. I got my food and sat down, before unlocking my phone and staring at the screensaver. A picture of me on Andy's back, wearing one of his beanies and him wearing my bow bandana. I laughed quietly at it, before putting my phone back in my pocket and eating.
"Flight 2210 to Glasgow, please make your way to Gate 3 and prepare for boarding"
I stood up and wandered to Gate 3, before waiting patiently in the queue. If Andy were here I wouldn't be bored, I thought to myself.
"Next!" the woman checking passes called.
I walked over to her and passed her my boarding pass. I half expected Andy to come running in just as I stepped on the plane like they did in films but it never happened. So I got on the plane and took out my iPad, preparing for takeoff.
