A knocking at the door snaps me put of my useless memories and thoughts.

"Coming!" I shout, jogging towards the door.

Calum stands there, beaming.

"Avery!" He yells.

He spins me around as he hugs me, and I wrap my arms tightly around him. "Cal!" I cry.

As he puts me down, he kisses my cheek. "You don't know how long I've waited for this."

I smile. "Same here."

"Your 18 now, right?"

"Yeah. Didn't Luke just turn 18?"

"Yeah. About a week before you right?"

I nod. "Lemme go grab my bags."

I ran back inside.

I take a look around my house.

One last glance.

Before everything changes.

A sudden sadness spears through me like a wildfire.

How will my mom react?

How will Lauren or Harry react?

How will Ashton react?

I'll find out soon enough.

Hopefully.
