~Celeste's POV~
After the last two shows,I had to start packing to go back home. We were currently at Mitchel and Clinton's house,and everyone was outside partying and eating.
I was inside,sitting on the couch, looking through the photo book I made last night,of all the memories we made in the short time we'd known each other. I was trying not to cry,despite the fact I was already missing them and I wasn't even at the airport yet.
I felt a gust of wind blow in,and heard Mitchel talking as he came in,along with Clinton. "Celeste?" Clinton asked, walking over. I looked up and his smile fell.
He sat beside me,and held me. "it's okay to cry Celeste. Let it out Hun. We've got ya. We're right here love." He murmured. I hugged him,and I felt Mitchel sit on the other side of me,and hug me. I broke down sobbing.
I heard someone else come in. "Oh my God. Li'l one!" Jesse said worriedly. He ran over and knelt in front of us. I hugged him tight,and he held me protectively.
Soon,Christian joined us,and we looked through the photo book together. I stopped crying,and I looked at the time. "I have to go." I murmured.
I grabbed My suitcase and walked out to the car with Mitchel since he was driving me. "HEY WAIT UP!!" Xavier called.
I turned and he ran over. "Where you going?" He asked. "Home." I replied with a sad smile.
His smile fell. "What-? But you can't- Celeste... Tell me you're joking.. please?" He begged,hugging me. I held him right.
"I'm sorry Xavier... I really gotta go." I murmured.
"But you are-! You don't have to- This is your home! You can't leave us... You can't just leave me..." "Celeste..." He stammered. Tears welled up in his eyes.
"I love you so much Xavier. You're the most selfless,the most nurturing,and hilarious best friend anyone could ever be gifted with." "You'll always be the angel on my shoulder,okay? I'll keep in touch,I promise. It hurts me so much.. but I gotta okay?" "I have a job,and friends and family to look after too. But I'll visit.. and y'all will visit me." "We'll make it work okay? You trust me,don't you?" I begged him.
He nodded and kissed my forehead. He took off his black bandana,and tied it around my wrist. I looked at him in shock. "but you're never without-" I started.
"I want you to have it,so you never forget okay? Australia is your home too. Incase you ever miss us extra,you always have us with you,as a good luck charm." He said fondly,wiping away his tears.
We hugged again. "I love you Celeste." He murmured. "I love you too Xavier." I replied softly. I kissed his forehead.
I got in the car with Mitchel,and we took off to the airport.
~Later~
We arrived at the airport,and Mitty walked me in. He hugged me tight,and watched me go through security check.
Soon,the boarding was called,and I followed the line of people on to the plane. I put my bags up on the overhead and sat by the window.
Soon,the plane took off.
~Later~
By late evening,the plane finally landed. I grabbed my suitcases and followed everyone off the plane.
I walked out of the airport,and surprisingly,my coworker Ryan was waiting for me. He engulfed me in a hug.
"Welcome home Celeste." He said fondly. I sighed and we got in the car.
The drive to my house was long,and silent. We finally arrived,and I walked inside. I went to my room,not bothering with my shoes,and flopped on to the bed.
I hadn't missed this at all. It felt strange and uncomfortable now. But it was still home.
