A few months later...

I plop down on my bed, close to tears. Justin can’t come, its been months and I miss him so much and now we have to wait to see each other. I curled into a ball and let a few tears fall down my cheeks. I just wanted him here right now. My family had been trying distract me over the past few months, trying to show me that I could have fun without him, but I still missed him being with me and joining in our fun. I pull a pillow against my chest and cry.

"Ellie," my brother said softly, rubbing my back. "Come on, come out with us. We know you'll have fun."

I shake my head. "No."

He sighed and slipped his hands under me. "Up you go," he muttered, lifting me effortlessly off the bed.

"Elliott." I pout.

"You need to stop moping. You have since you found out from Justin. You are coming out with us and we have a surprise thing for you."

"I don't want to go."

"You have no choice."

"Elliott, put me down!"

He covered my mouth and walked downstairs. "Whose car are we going in?" he asked, ignoring my muffled protests.

"Mine." Robbie says.

Elliott placed me in Robbie's car and Wes got in before I could escape the other side. "Where are you taking me?" I demanded, staring at each of them.

"You'll see." they grin. I narrowed my eyes and sat back, not bothering to continue.

"Put this on," my brother said, handing me a blind fold. "And don't say no." I frown, but put it on. After a few minutes, the car pulled to a stop and I fidgeted in the seat, wanting to know where I was.

"Guys!" I whine. "Just tell me where we are."

"Watch your step," Elliott told me instead, helping me out the car. I groaned in frustration and let him pull me along. After a few moments, he stood behind me and covered my ears, making sure no sound got through. I groan. We walked along for what felt like hours until Elliott stopped me and loosened his hands enough to say, "just a few moments." I sigh and lean back into him. "There he is," Elliott told me, taking his hands away from my ears and I felt him grinning.

"What are you talking about?" I ask. He loosened the blindfold then pulled it off. I blinked in surprise then realized what he was talking about. My eyes widen and I start running through the crowd. Justin dropped his bag and picked me up easily off the floor. I wrapped my legs around him and kissed his neck repeatedly. I pull back and smile at him before kissing him passionately.

He kissed me back easily before pulling me back and resting his forehead against mine. "What are you doing here?" I asked him quietly. "You said you couldn't come."

"Your brothers wanted to surprise you."

I tightened my hold on him and breathed out slowly. "God I've missed you."

"I've missed you too love, a ton." He picked up his bag and held onto me as he walked towards my brothers. I hold onto him tightly, breathing in his scent. I smile when I hear him talk to his brothers. Now that he's in New York, his accent really sticks out.

"What are you giggling at?" he asked quietly, squeezing my sides.

"Your accent."

He paused and looked down at me. "You don't like it?"

"No! Justin I love it." I tell him honestly.

He grinned. "That's good. I might end up with an American accent though," he said, ticking my sides.
