FINALLY! A real update! :P

Anyway, there is only going to be a couple chapters after this one. And that's it, it's over. I hate ending a book, but it's time. I've been working on this one for around a year and I can't believe how far it has gotten. I seriously love all of you that have voted, commented, and even fanned me. Thank you.

CHAPTER THIRTY-SIX!!!

 ---Michael's POV---

It was finished.

Luke and I had worked on this song for what seems like forever and it was finally done. We ran it by Ashton and Calum, and they both liked it and said what we were planning on doing was really adorable. I couldn't wait to see the look on Nikki's face, though.

I was already excited.

"Luke, when are you guys leaving?" Ashton asked.

We were hanging out together like old times, in my bedroom with an acoustic guitar and no plans.

"Tomorrow. Speaking of, Michael, have you packed yet?" Luke answered Ash and asked me. I nodded, not bothering to speak, my mind full of Nikki...

Nikki.

That reminds me.

I grabbed my phone off the charger by my bed and checked for any new messages.

Just one.

"I miss you. <3"

It was sent not long ago, which meant she's probably sleeping.

I quickly typed a response and sent it.

"I miss you more. :P <3"

"Oh stop being all smiley and pay attention, lover boy," Luke said, poking me.

"Lover boy? Smiley? Oh, haaaale no," I joked. "You are way more attached to your phone texting or calling Lydia than I am. And don't say it's because I'm trying to keep this plan a secret. Especially because you already told."

Luke grinned and just shook his head.

"Anyway...," he said. "We're both packed, and we have to get up rather early tomorrow to get on that plane. So, shall we call it a night?"

"Lucas, it's like noon.... Are you serious?" I huffed. Although sleep did sound good right now...jetlag was still kicking my arse.

"Yeah, I am. But if you want to wake up tomorrow tired, that's fine by me. I'm heading home." He stood and left the room, leaving Ash, Cal, and I all on my bed.

"Well, I think Ash and I are going to go too... Luke might be right, Mike," Calum said, standing and grabbing Ashton's hand. They left.

I was alone now.

Ehh. The plane was leaving the airport at 3 in the morning... Luke would want to leave here by midnight to get there early. So maybe I would sleep....

Maybe...

~•~•~•~

I woke up to banging on my door.

"Michael! Wake up! We have to leave soon!"

I rolled over, drowning out Luke's voice as I checked the time.

11:58 pm

What did I say?

"Michael!"

"I'm up!" I yelled back. "Give me a minute, gosh."

"Michael. Come on. Seriously, mate, we have to get going. Put some clothes on, grab your bag, and come on!" Luke yelled through the door.

I sighed and did what he had said, coming out with bag in hand.

"Happy?" I asked, sarcastically, running a hand through my bed-head hair.

"No, but I'll live. We have to go, Mike," he said, a bit frustrated, walking away from me and out of my house.

I said a quick goodbye to my mom and headed out, promising I would call later.

Luke and I got to the airport no more than 45 mins later, and after grabbing something to eat, we sat around in the terminal, having already been through luggage and the X-ray machines.

"Luke, what do you think is going to happen?" I asked him, as I leaned back in the uncomfortable plastic chairs, attempting to relax.

"I have no idea. I really hope they love it though. The song is special, and they are to us, so it should be perfect," he sighed, somewhat dreamily, and I glanced at him.

"Who's calling who "Lover Boy" now?" I teased, smirking at him. He rolled his eyes at me and lay down on a row of folded-down, plastic chairs. We were both tired, but I was way to excited to fall asleep now. I might crash on the plane, it being about a 14 hour ride. This was so going to be fun...note the sarcasm. I just wanted to be there right now, to have Nikki in my arms where she belonged and my heart whole again.

"Flight 786 to America, now boarding," the flight attendant announced. I poked a sleeping Luke, and grabbed my carry-on, heading up to the line to board. As soon as we officially settled into our first class seats, the plane started moving onto the runway.

We took off around 15 minutes later, and I gave a silent goodbye (once again) to my home soil.

Then again, I was headed to where my heart truly lie.
