A star falls from the sky and into your hands. Then it seeps through your veins and swims inside your blood and becomes every part of you. And then you have to put it back into the sky. And it's the most painful thing you'll ever have to do and that you've ever done. But what's yours is yours. Whether it's up in the sky or here in your hands. And one day, it'll fall from the sky and hit you in the head real hard and that time, you won't have to put it back in the sky again.

All my life I loved a girl who I believed never loved me back, a girl who was as bright as a star in the night sky. Indie Rose Johnson was her name, she left me a almost a year ago to move to New York. And every day since she left I have been messed up, I feel like I have gone crazy without her.
But here I was, right now under the night sky listening to her voice, and how she talked about the adventures she was having. I wanted to be with her, be with her in those adventures and see the look on her face when she disovered something new. Because nothing made me fall more in love, then seeing her in her simple delirium.
"Ashton it is seriously incredible here, I'm always finding new things to do and try. Everything is going well with study and my job, I thought when I moved here I'd have to sell everything just to live but I'm actually doing well! However I did have to sell that stupid clock my mum gave me." Indie giggled into the phone, and it sent shivers down my spine.
"That clock was ugly though." I stated.
"You're right, no big loss there." She added happily, and then laughed. "I miss home though." I heard her mumble.
I sighed quietly, memories sparked my brain and tears started to form in my eyes, "Home probably misses you too."
She laughed, "Ash, you're a massive dork sometimes. You know that?"
"Yeah."
"A cute one though."
I felt my cheeks warm up, and my stomach turn. She just called me cute, "So I'm a massive cute dork?" I grinned, hoping she'd confirm that and not take back the cute part.
"Hmm," She paused, "Less of the dork, more of the cute."
I felt like doing backflips, but instead I fist pumped the air and smiled so much it hurt. Here I was thinking she didn't even find me attractive, at least that was one worry I could erase.
"Hey, I've got something to tell you." Indie cut off my overjoyed thoughts, and I quickly composied myself before answering.
"What's that?" I asked.
"Well, you know I love it here."
"Yes."
"But you know I miss home."
"Yes?" I sat up and frowned, whatever she was going on about had me confused, but also had me wondering.. but of course what I thought couldn't be true.
"And I miss you."
"I'd hope so." I joked.
"Ashton shut up this is serious."
"Sorry, continue."
"Well I was thinking and," She paused, and I knew she would of had a drum roll playing in her mind at this moment, Indie was a drama queen and she had to make things more exhilarating than they actually were, just to get people excited even if it was over nothing. And right now it was working.
"Indie, what? Tell me?" I begged, she had been waiting for a good fifteen seconds now, that's too long in my books.
She giggled, "Ashton I'm coming home."
My heart stopped, literally it stopped. Or skipped a beat, possible ten beats. Because I started crying, I started crying really hard. Indie was coming home, I was going to be able to hold ever, hug her, and god dammit I was going to fucking kiss her. Because I missed her, I missed the way she smiled, I missed the way she held my hand to drag me places. I missed her adventures she took me on, I missed the way she wore dresses with flip flops, I missed her eyes, I just really fucking missed her. I knew I did, I was going insane without her here, but I didn't realize how bad it was until she told me.
But none of that mattered now.
My star was coming home.
a.n: and that my friends is the end of Hey There Delilah.
