"Hey, what's the matter?"
"Uhm.. nothing." I replied.
"Con, what is it?" Charla insisted.
"The music video is up in a few days." I said a bit quietly.
"That's good!! Why? Aren't you happy with it?" Charla half shouted.
"Yeah man! We should be excited!" James said.
"We'll have to go back to the U.K. It's gonna have its premiere in London and.... we have to be there for an interview the same day." I said, slowly.
"Oh." Charla said.
"I can stay here, love."
"No Connor. I understand. You'll be back, right?"
"Yeah, but I can't promise when."
"It's okay." she half smiled. I knew she was lying. I didn't say anything anymore, I just hugged her tight. James drove us back to our flat. Charla stayed with us.
Charla's POV
I stayed with the boys in their flat. I was sat with Connor on their sofa watching a movie with the others. Connor wrapped his arms around me while I was snuggled up.
I lied. Of course it's not okay. This summer has been the best yet, spending it with a very special person. And he already needs to go back to England the day after tomorrow, without knowing when he will come back here. If I could, I would stop him from leaving, or I would come with him. But I couldn't do either. It's his job and he needs to do whatever the management tells him to. I'll just have to understand and support him, right?
"Charla.." he spoke, while running his fingers though my hair.
"Hmm?"
"Can't you come with us?" he asked.
"Con, as much as I want to, I cant. I have practice, I haven't asked my parents, and I'm only on a vacation here, not England."
"Please?" he pleaded.
"Con.. I will wait for you." I smiled.
He just kissed me on my forehead and hugged me tighter.

The next day wasn't really nice to me. I woke up, still in the boys' flat, seeing them pack up their things. Lia was there, helping Brad. But someone hasn't packed his things yet. And he was nowhere to be found. Even the boys didn't know where he went. We tried calling him but he wouldn't answer. This was making me nervous and sad at the same time. We couldn't find him. And this was the last day I could be with him before he leaves and he's not here. I went back to our flat, crying.
Where did he go?
Didn't he want to be with me before he leaves?
What if he doesnt want to see me anymore?
What is up with him?
These thoughts keep echoing in my head. The boy was driving me mad and sad. That was how the day went. I didnt go out of the flat. I kept texting and calling him but he wouldnt answer. Night came, it's still the same. Lia has already came back home from spending the day with Brad. And I was still worrying about Connor. Lia tried cheering me up but it was no work. She also acted a bit weird than usual.
It was past midnight when my phone lit up.
Message from: Con <3
Im out your door.
I stood up from my bed went to the door. I opened it and a pair of beautiful ocean blue eyes met mine. I couldn't help myself from hugging him so tight.
"I was worried the whole day you jerk!" I slapped his arm and realized I was crying. Mixed emotions got into me.
"I'm so sorry. It was hard begging your parents and the management to let you come with me." he said, and hugged me.
"You---wh--what?" I was stuttered by what he said.
He smiled and pulled out something from his back pockets. They were plane tickets to London. Damn son.
"Con..."
"Won't you let me in and help you pack your things?" he smiled, cheekily. So I did. And we started packing.
"Connor, what about Lia?" I said, while handing him a small pile of clothes.
"She knows. I told the boys and her this afternoon. Brad also wanted her to come, but she said she has to go back to your country to fix papers for a uni."
"Oh, yeah." It would be better if Lia would also come. I mean, shes my bestfriend. I wouldn't want to leave her like that. I'm going to miss her.
"Done!" we both said, after we finished packing up my things.
"Come on! We're leaving in a few hours!" Connor said.
"Okay! Wait for a while." I said. I wrote a note beside Lia's bed saying I'm going to miss her and that I'll be back soon. I kissed her forehead before closing her bedroom door behind me.
"Ready?" Connor asked, reaching out his hand to me.
"Ready." I smiled, taking his hand. We both got my suitcases and got out of the flat.
Maybe this wasn't a bad day after all.
