In Love

Chapter 7

*Listen to Stay With Me by Chanyeol and Punch while reading this chapter*

Tabby's POV:

I guess my grandma knew what she was talking about before I left. She had warned me not to fall in love while I was here and here I am doing exactly that. Bobby though is one of the sweetest guys I have ever met. Getting on that plane is going to tear my heart up. I am falling for him really hard and leaving him will be the hardest thing I have ever done. Why did we have to meet and fall for each other?

I wake up and look at my phone. I instantly sit up. My flight leaves in an hour. I look over at Bobby and he is still fast asleep. I sigh softly and make up my mind. Maybe leaving without waking him will be the best. I slowly stand up out of bed. I will probably regret my decision later.

I get dressed, brush my teeth and fix my hair. I come back out into my room and Bobby is still asleep. I grab my suitcase and open it on the floor. I softly open my dresser drawer and pull out all of my clothes. I sit on the floor and fold all of my clothes into my suitcase. I rezip my suitcase and stand it up. I stand up too and look around. I grab my bag and my phone and put them on top of my suitcase.

I grab my shoes and lightly sit on the edge of my bed. I put on my shoes, then stand back up. I turn to look at Bobby and I can't take my eyes away from him sleeping there. The more I look at him the more my heart breaks.

"I don't want to leave you." I whisper. I lean down and place a very soft kiss on his forehead. I stand straight again and turn around and walk over to my suitcase.

I start walking to the door with my suitcase. I stop and suddenly think of something. I leave my suitcase by the door and go over to the table next to my bed. I grab a piece of paper and a pen. I write down my address in London. I wanted Bobby to have it just in case he wanted to see me after this. I place the paper next to him on my bed and I walk back to the door. I grab my suitcase and I open my hotel room door very quietly. I walk out into the hall and close the door behind me softly.

I walk down the hall and into the elevator. The elevator takes me to the first floor and I walk off. I go to the front desk and I give the person behind the counter my key. They smile at me.

"I hope you enjoyed your stay." They say. I smile softly.

"I did. Thank you." I reply. I bow lightly before walking outside and stopping on the sidewalk. I take a deep breath and start down the sidewalk in the direction of the airport. I look around as I walk and a lump starts to form in my throat.

"I'm going to miss this place." I tell myself. This place really has grown on me this week.

The airport quickly comes into view and I sigh. I guess this is it. I'm going back home to London. I walk in and I go through all the procedures. I still have time before my flight, so I sit down to wait.

Time goes fast just sitting here and there is five minutes before my flight leaves. I stand up and start to walk towards where my plane will depart.

"Tabby!" I stop as soon as I hear my name being called from behind me. I turn around to see Bobby and June standing together, looking at me. I look at both of them, then my eyes land on Bobby. The lump in my throat returns.

"You were going to leave without saying anything?" Bobby asks as he comes closer to me. I frown.

"I'm sorry." I say quietly. He studies my face and his eyes start to glisten with tears.

"Seeing you here is killing me." Bobby says softly. My eyes fill with tears and start escaping down my cheeks.

"Bobby, I'm so sorry." I tell him. Standing here with him, I'm just not sure what to say to him. Tears start falling down his cheeks and he comes closer to me.

"Be safe. I hope you have a good flight." He whispers. Bobby leans down and places his lips on my own. I close my eyes and I force myself not to wrap my arms around him. He pulls away first and I look at his face one more time before I turn around. I walk away from him and tears just flow down my face. I get onto my flight and sit down in my seat. I look out the window and just let the tears come. This is the hardest thing I have ever done.

*Hours later*

I walk off of my flight and wipe my eyes. I cryed the whole way home and now I'm exhausted. I find my suitcase and walk out of the airport. I make the walk to grandma and I's house. I walk in and I stand in the entrance way.

"Grandma, I'm home!" I call. A few seconds later my grandma flys into the entrance way and hugs me really hard.

"Oh I have missed you so much." She says. I smile softly. She lets me go and holds me at arms length. Grandma searches my face and then frowns.

"Why are your eyes all red and puffy?" She asks me.

"I was crying on the plane." I tell her quietly. I look down at my feet. Grandma lifts my head up with her finger.

"Now why would you be doing such a silly thing?" She asks me. I look at her and I sigh.

"I met someone, Grandma." I say. She instantly lets me go and she raises her eyebrow at me.

"What did I tell you?"

"I know, but he is different and sweet." I tell her softly. Grandma shakes her head and turns around.

"I'm going to bed." She states and goes up the stairs. I watch as she leaves me standing here.

"Well she took that well." I mumble to myself. I sigh and follow after her up the stairs to my room. I sit my suitcase down and I instantly lay down on my bed. I get my phone out and open it to my pictures. I pick the newest one on there. It's me and Bobby at the beach. I close my eyes. I miss him.
