Right now I felt nothing. I felt empty.
"Is he seriously still in that room" I heard lexi sigh as she walked up the stairs.
"Yeah don't think I've seen him for 3 days now" kade muttered.
It was at that moment they burst into my room, ripping open the curtains.
"Rise and shine motherfucker" lexi laughed.
"Go away" I mumbled pulling the duvet over my head. I didn't want to do anything.
"You seriously need to quit pinning, your worse than a teenage girl" Lexi laughed jumping on the bed.
"What's the point she isn't coming back" I sighed
"What would you do if I told you I'd spoke to her this morning and that she is coming home" kade whispered.
Pulling the duvet off my head, I stared at him.
"If you are joking imma fucking kill you" I whispered.
"I'm being serious con, she's coming home." He smiled.
"So she's made her mind up, I wouldn't be surprised if she wanted me gone" I whispered as tears fell down my cheeks. Which surprised me the amount I had cried over the last 3 weeks I'd thought I'd have no tears left.
"But also what happens if she has chosen you, we don't know what decision she has made" lexi smiled squeezing my shoulder "now get your ass out of this bed, you stink" she laughed.
She was right, we didn't know what Haylee had decided. Sitting up in the bed I ran my hand through my hair. My heart was beating that fast I swear it was going to come through my chest.
"When did she leave?" I asked grabbing my phone.
"Urm about 2 hours ago and considering she ended up in la I'd say she'd be home in urm 16 hours if she doesn't stop but if she stops then it will be some time tomorrow" kade said looking at his phone.
"Ok" I breathed before shoving lexi and kade out my room. Hitting play on Spotify, the sounds of Eminem started to fill the bathroom. As crazy as it sounded it calmed me down as it made me think of Haylee. I had visions of her driving down the high way spitting along without missing a beat. A small smile formed on my face.
My girl was coming home.
No matter her decision she was coming home and at that point in time that's all that mattered.

The next 24 hours went by in a blur.
As we all sat in Haylee's apartment the familiar sound of an engine roaring through the strets of texas brought a small smile to my face. She was home.
My heart was racing, my palms where starting to get sweaty. I don't think I have been this nervous to see someone before.
The sound of a key turning in the door made my heart stop. This was it. The moment of truth. The door opened revealing a very smiley Haylee. She looked amazing, she looked like a weight had been lifted off her shoulders. It was in that moment I knew this was the end.
She walked straight up to kade giving him a hug. After she had given kade and Lexi a hug she turned to me.
"We need to talk" she whispered before walking out into the balcony.
Yup this was definitely the end.
Following her out onto the balcony I pulled my cigarettes out sparking up as she did the same.
The next thing I knew she had engulfed me in a hug, completely knocking me off guard.
"I missed you" she mumbled into my chest. I pulled away from the hug to see she was smiling at me.
"Connor I can't accept that our story doesn't have a good ending. I was stupid to not see what was in front of me" she whispered.
"Wait, what are you saying hayls" I whispered back confused.
"It's you, it's always been you. You are the one that has held my heart all these years. I didn't realise what my life was missing until you can back into my life" she grinned
"Are you saying what I think you are saying" I chuckled raising my eyebrow.
"Yes you muppet" she laughed "I want to try again" she grinned "I'm sorry it took so long for me to realise"
I didn't say anything instead I wrapped my arms around her holding her tight. She had given me a second chance and I was going to make sure I didn't fuck things up this time.
