     Jack entered the room.

    Me and Ava let go of eachother.

   "So what was the conversation about?" I asked.

   "Just some things they wanted me to know. Like what's gonna happen if anything goes wrong or whatever- all that stuff."

    "Oh god, they didn't go all crazy on you did they?"

    "Nah, nah. Normal parent stuff, I get it." He shrugged.

    I sighed. We all stood in the middle of my room, looking at each other. I smiled at Ava.

    "Call me. Everyday." She said.

    I hugged her again. "I will." I said, trying not to tear up. You'd think I was leaving for 2 years.

     "Got everything?" Jack said.

   "Yeah, let me change real quick."

     I went into the bathroom and changed into a black ruffled tank top with a grey knitted cardigan and skinny jeans and black flats. I didn't bother doing my makeup, but I did put my hair in a bun. I came out and grabbed a suitcase. Jack politely took the other one.

    We all walked upstairs into the kitchen, where my parents were.

    "You all ready?" My mom said.

    "Yep." I said.

     My parents and I went over some things for about 3 minutes. Basically there's just a few rules. 1. Call them every night 2. Stay together and 3. Don't get too crazy. I understand.

     "So are you just going to leave your car at the airport Jack?" My dad said.

    "Oh, I'm meeting my parents there and my dad's gonna drive it back to the house."

     "Alright, well, you two, have fun and I'm trusting you to not do anything stupid!" My mom smiled.

    We all said our goodbyes.

    I gave my last hug to Ava.

    "Everyday." She reminded.

    "I'll call you! Stop worrying." I smiled.

   We all walked out to the Jeep and Jack took my suitcases and out them in the back with his stuff.

   "Have fun." My mom said. I got into the car and rolled down the window.

    "I will." I said smiling.

    "We love you." My dad said. Jack climbed into the drivers seat.

    "I love you too."

   "Take care of her." He said to Jack.

    "Of course." Jack nodded his head.

    "Bye." Ava did a sad face.

    "Bye." I mocked her.

    "Bye!" My parents said.

    "See ya." Jack and I said.

    We pulled out of the driveway, waving to them.

    "So we're gonna pick up Jack, Sammy and Nate. They're all chilling at my house."

     We picked the guys up and followed Jack's parents to the airport. When we arrived, we all said goodbye to Jack's parents in the parking lot.

    On the way into the airport, you could feel the excitement between all of us. It was radiant.

We walked around the little shops before the plane started boarding. I was in a Nebraska state shop that had hoodies, pajamas, t-shirts, etc with all the boys.

    A girl with braces and long red hair came up to us."Hi Jack, can I get a selfie with you?" She said.

    "Yeah sure sweetie." She put his arm around her and smiled for a picture.

    "Thank you so much." She hugged him.

    "No problem." He smiled.

    "Sammy! Can we get a selfie together?" She asked.

    "Yeah sure!" He took her phone and took a picture of the two of them.

    "Thanks it means a lot." She hugged him. She  walked out, right past Jack J and Nate, totally ignoring them.

  "Allllright." Jack J tucked his lips in.

   "Does that always happen?" I asked.

    "Nah, not usually but it happens a lot." Jack J said.

    "Pft. Happens to me all the time." Nate laughed.

     We got some food and other stuff to bring on the plane with us, and I got a red Nebraska hoodie. A few minutes later, our plane started boarding. Jack, Nate, Jack J, Sammy, and I all sat in first class together. We talked about how hype all of this was going to be and what kind of things we wanted to do.

     15 minutes later, the plane set off.
