(a few weeks later)

"Blake?" i call him, needing help.

"leilei?"

"I need helppp," i say.

"With?"

"I don't know what to pack for tour and how much. Can you come over?"

"I can't come over for long because we've a lot of things to sort out before we leave tomorrow. I'll be there in five minutes."

"Thank you, you're the best."

"I know. Love you, bye." I roll my eyes at his cockiness. 

"Love you, bye." I hang up and stare at my closet, wishing it'd pack itself. I already have the basics: my laptop, books, earbuds, chargers, and toiletries. I just don't know what to do with the clothes. Indie walks in and laughs when she sees my dilemma.

"What's up?" She asks.

"I don't know how much to pack."

"Well, you'll be gone for...five to six months?" She asks and i nod.

"Okay, well you'll definitely need a lot of shirts but not too much. You can always wash your clothes. If you don't have a lot of jeans, shorts, and skirts, then just pack those. If i were you, i'd pack some cute dresses as well." She helps me with everything else and as she lists them off, i grab them from my closet and lay them down on the floor. Almost a minute later, Blake walks in.

"Hey." I smile.

"Hey, are you getting it kind of figured out?"

"Yeah, kind of. Indie was helping me."

"Okay, it looks like you've got enough pants, shorts, and skirts. I would probably get a couple more shirts and dresses. Definitely some jumpers, it'll be cold sometimes. Get five pair of shoes that match everything and obviously things to do your hair and other essentials." He says and helps me lay everything else out.

"Sadly, I've got to go already." Blake says five minutes later.

"Alright, see you tonight. Remember dinner at my parents?" 

"Of course. I'll come pick you up." He places a quick kiss on my lips before heading out the door.


Before Blake comes to pick me up, i throw on my new central perk shirt and touched up my make up. I was finished early so i decided to try reading some new hope club fanfic because i had nothing better to do. twenty minutes later, blake texts me that he's here and i run out to his car.

"Ooo i love your shirt. Is it new?' He says.

"Yup! It's so comfy too so win win." I laugh. 

i feel bad because ever since mum saw Blake leaving the day he asked me to be his girlfriend months ago, all of us having been really busy to have dinner together. I'm glad we're able to do it before we go on tour. I'm excited for mum and dad to meet Blake again, i know they'll love him.

"Mum?" I call out, walking into the kitchen.

"I'm in the kitchen!" Mum says. I could tell Blake was nervous, so i grab his hand to comfort him. 

"Don't worry B, I know mum will love you. She loved you thirteen years ago and she loves you now for making me so happy." I grin and we walk into the kitchen to see mum making dinner.

"Hey mum, i missed you." I give her a big hug.

"Hey sweetie." She kissed the top of my head before she pulls away.
