Today was my last day here in Seoul; it was a beautiful Sunday Morning, where Jackson and I were both still laying in bed tangled in each other's embrace, even though we were awake, neither of us dared to move from the comfortable position.

"Good morning, baby girl" he finally said
"Morning, handsome" I smiled, looking up at him and kissing his cheek softly
"You hungry yet?" He asked with a soft smile and his sexy morning voice. I bit my lip softly and nodded
"Slightly" I added
"Then let's go cook something" he said with a soft smile. I nodded and stood up, directing myself to the bathroom, taking a quick shower and doing my normal morning routine. After I got out of the shower, Jackson went inside and showered as well, while I was getting dressed for the day. I slid on a pair of black track pants and Jackson's red adidas sweatshirt that was practically already mine, I tied my hair in a messy bun and just applied moisturizer to my hands and neck.

I went to the kitchen, and started making breakfast for both of us. Normally, we would go for a run around the hood and afterwards have a protein shake with a toast or something like that, but since it was my last day, I decided we should have something different today; I was cooking bacon, eggs, waffles and was also preparing a chocolate shake with marshmallows, I served juice and was also preparing a cappuccino, and yes, I was planning on eating everything I made.

I felt a pair of strong arms wrap around my waist while I was finishing up the eggs, his actions made a smile make its way into my face, I put the eggs on the plates I had ready and turned off the stove, then I turned around and hugged him properly-one of the last hugs we were sharing together in a long time. He smiled, pulling away from the hug only to place a sweet kiss on my lips, it turning more passionate as seconds went by. His hand were cupping my face and my hands were against his chest, slightly tracing the abs he was starting to gain back. Neither of us wanted to pull away, but we did as we were running out of breath, that and the waffles were ready.

I placed them, one on each plate and set them on the dining table, placing the glass with juice, the cup of coffee and the glass with the shake in front of each plate.

"You went big today, huh?" He chuckled as he sat down to enjoy the breakfast made with so much love; I giggled slightly and nodded "Yeah, I was in the mood I guess" the words escaped my lips as i was starting to eat.

By the time we were done eating and cleaning, it was 9:00am and we had no other plans till noon, since we were meeting up with the guys and Baby to have a last dinner together. So I decided I wanted to go to my house and start packing my things. Yes, you heard right, start.

Jackson said he would help me with the packing, so we both made our way to my house, walking. We wanted to spend as much time together as we could, and we both enjoyed walking together very much.

As we arrived at my place, I unlocked the door and walked inside. Today I was having the landlord come so I could give him the keys to the house and everything, and I was dreading that moment since the guys was very unsettling, but at least I had Jackson with me.

My house at this point, only had my clothes, since the furniture had been sold to people who couldn't afford furniture, but in a very affordable price, that was also a reason for me to sleep at Jackson's. So here we were, packing all of my clothes into my luggage, and singing along to random songs that came on shuffle.

As we were half way through the packing, the one song that had been my favorite ever since I first heard it, came on. Jackson and I exchanged looks, small smiles as we stopped doing what we were doing, and went to the middle of the room. Jackson grabbed a comb that I left here on accident, using it as a microphone, while singing the lyrics at the top of his lungs. I laughed at his actions and as the chorus started playing, we both started screaming the lyrics and jumping around, laughing and enjoying ourselves.

I was gonna miss this so much.

I was gonna miss him so much.

"Can't you just manage the Korean agency though?" Baby said with tears in her eyes, making my own eyes feel watery
"Baby, don't cry.. please.. I'll visit, I promise! And you can visit too, this doesn't mean I'm leaving forever, it's only for a little while" I tried to comfort her and myself with the words I spoke.

Today was the day I had dreaded  for so long, the day I was starting my business life in Japan. Everyone was here today, the guys and Baby, and my parents had come to pick
me up, they were here since yesterday. I was sitting next to Jackson, who was awfully quiet as his arms were wrapped around me securely, and as I was there in his embrace, I knew I was going to miss him the most.

"Yeah, Baby, Sun has to work so she can pay for our trips, you know we all love to travel" BamBam said as an attempt to lighten the mood up, and succeeded slightly as everyone left soft chuckles and laughs out.

As the time to aboard came by, my dad called for everyone's attention
"Everyone, the short time I've spent with you, I could sense how much you all love my beloved daughter, I just want to thank you for that. And as Sunhi herself said, she'll be coming back in a while, so don't be sad" my dad finished with a proud smile as he patted my shoulder, I bit my lip softly, trying to hold back my tears. I smiled at the eight standing frames in front of me, and one by one, I started hugging them goodbye.

"Call as soon as you land, please" Jackson said, hugging me close to his chest and kissing my forehead. As this words slipped his mouth, I couldn't hold back my tears any more

"I love you, Jackson"
"I love you too, Sunny" he smiled caressing my face carefully with his hands

"My heart is dancing?"
"Mine will dance with yours" I said with a soft whimper, as I obligated myself to break away from the hug before I decided to stay in Korea.

I didn't look back, not even once, it would have been too painful for me.

My mom took me into her embrace as soon as we were seated "you really love them, don't you" she said and I just smiled, nodding my head softly. They were such an important part of my life now, I couldn't bear to leave them, but I had to.

"You knew from the start though, why even accept them into your life" she said, referring to me moving to Japan after my senior year
"I wanted friends for the first time in my life, but you know? I actually found family" I chuckled dryly
"I'll be back, I'll definitely be back" I told myself  as the plane took off.

I'll be back, Jackson.
