My alarm goes off and I immediately turn it off because Athenas still sleeping.

I've been sleeping on and off all night.

So much stress...

"Tyson" dad walks in and I nod before he walks out.

I look down at my peacefully sleeping girlfriend, and wiggle her. "Wake up, Athena" I say softly.

She doesn't wake up, so I gently take her off my chest and quietly get out of bed.

I change into comfortable travel clothes for the jet ride and hear little mumbles and groans. "Ty?" Athena wakes up.

I turn to her. "Morning, baby"

"You're leaving?" she frowns.

I walk up to her. "Yea, everyone's here" I sigh.

She gets out of bed and yawns while hugging me. "I'll walk you out"

I nod and grab my back.

She holds my hand and stays close to me as we walk outside, where its pouring.

"Hey Athena" the Mansons say.

"Hi..." Athena trails off.

"Gonna miss you.." Matt frowns.

"Make sure our parents are okay..." Tyler says.

"And text us, a lot" Gabe adds.

"I will.. I'll miss you guys" Athena hugs everyone.

"And... I know you don't like her... but please keep an eye on Rebecca... I texted you her number" Matt says.

"Right..." Athena sighs.

The guys look at me. "We'll be in the car" they say before walking off.

"Bye Riles" dad hugs mom tightly. "I love you"

"I love you too" mom cries before dad kisses her and leaves.

I hear crying and turn Athena around to see her bawling. "Babe..." I pull her into my chest. "I'll be okay"

"I love you" she sobs.

"I love you too" I kiss her head and she pulls back.

"Stay safe..." she rubs my sides.

"I will, baby. I'll text you later" I passionately kiss her. "I love you so fucking much"

She wipes her tears. "I love you"

"Goodbye my baby" mom hugs me.

"Bye mom... I love you too" I squeeze her.

"I love you" she rubs my back and pulls back, wiping her own tears.

"Bye guys..." I rub their shoulders, holding back my tears before walking off and into the team suv.

I get in the front seat and dad looks at me. "We'll all be back in one piece, kiddo" he says and I turn to him, not believing it before looking ahead.
