This story is a sequel to 'That One Flight', I recommend you read that story first (if you haven't) just for the story to make more sense :)

BOOK TWO from the 'O'Neill Series'.
*PREVIOUSLY NAMED...
For the last two days, I was trying to give as much time possible to James and me, I didn't want to waste a single minute. I guess he was doing the same, he was trying to savour every moment with me, for likes, yesterday both him and I went to a concert that I got the tickets to last minute!
I wish he had more time with me, I wish he could say here longer. All I could do is wish, but my wish is sadly not coming true.
His flight is at 5 PM, so we - we being Darko, Andrea and me - have to drop him off at the airport in around 3 PM, which then means that we have to depart from my place at about 2 PM. Even though my house is like a twenty-minute drive to the airport, the traffic can at times be, let's say, unexpected. Till two, there are only four hours left, this all feels so surreal...
Both me and James wake up...
"Good morning, baby..." he whispers gently into my ear before wrapping his arms around me. I could feel him kiss me neck before wrapping his legs around mine, imprisoning me with his body as if I was going to run away.
I gently turn around, facing him before giving in to the embrace. I hug him tightly as I can feel his response. He tightens his grip around me, as I rest my head on his big, right shoulder blade.
"Are you okay, beautiful?" He whispers into my ear, he knows that something is wrong.
I want to force myself to nod, I want him to think that I am okay, to know that I am okay, but if I do I know that my heart will strike back with its pain that I can surely not handle without him. It will be like Igor's and my break up all over again but this time WAY worse, that is because I actually love James and he loves me back.
So I just shrug. I shrug because I don't know what to feel. I guess that me being numb would be the best description of how I feel, or maybe even how surreal this all feels. It feels so surreal but I know in my heart it is real.
"Did someone hurt you?..." He asks me.
I shake my head.
"You know you can tell me whatever it is that is bothering you and I will take care of it. I will protect you.".

"Who will protect me when you are gone?" I ask him, desperately trying not to sound like I was about to cry.
I sniffle as I can feel my nose run, that is when I felt his big hand on my head as he gently caresses my hair.
"I will always be here for you, where ever you are. Even if I am half the globe away, nothing can tare me away from you. I just want you to know that I am still here for you.".
I want to believe every word he says, but I can't. I can't because I know it is... unlikely... how will he be here when he is all the way in LA, I know that a love like ours won't last that long. Very soon, his goodbye is all I'll be left with. But I am willing to do this, to do this for us, for him, I am willing to do this because I love him more than I love me.
