Gigi was the first one to question the days plans after breakfast.
'Hmm i was too busy living in the moment to think ahead!' Crystal laughs as she scratches her head in thought.
'I don't really know the area so I'm relying on you here Crys' Gigi smiled encouragingly kissing Crystal on the forehead before heading to get dressed as crystal cleaned up from breakfast.

Being alone again, Gigi had time to think more like she was before breakfast. However, it was different this time; everything felt so right and yet there was such negativity looming in the back of Gigi's mind. She had been so caught up in the sudden rush of Crystal in her life that she had completely forgot... she was leaving Missouri in 2 days! And it's not exactly like Missouri is a quick trip around the corner from California. Her smile dropped and her face turned blank just as a tear started to well up in her eye. She couldn't possibly leave Crystal this soon when this could just be the start to something incredible she'd secretly imagined all her life. Suddenly the tears started to stream down her face as she ran to the bathroom.

Downstairs, Crystal had no idea what was happening or that Gigi was crying, after all, she didn't know Gigi was going anywhere. She closed her eyes and swayed side to side as she imagined being held by Gigi again. Putting away the last of the pots she began to head upstairs, she had no idea that the sound of her footsteps approaching were making Gigi cry even more.

Walking into the bedroom, Crystal couldn't see Gigi but instead heard quiet sobs and hyperventilating which caused her to panic, bursting into the bathroom where Gigi stood clinging onto the sink tears pouring from her eyes and drenching her perfectly straight blonde hair which now stuck to her body. Crystal grabbed Gigi from behind wrapping her into a tight hug before spinning her around by the waist to face her. She carefully grabbed her beautiful symmetrical face between her palms, wiping the tears away with her thumbs.
'Breathe Geege breathe.' Crystal tried to calm the shaking Gigi down as she held onto her tighter than ever. 'I'm here now' she reassured her.
Seeing Gigi like this was breaking Crystal's heart and what made it worse was she didn't even know why. She led her over to the bed where they sat as crystal tried to calm Gigi at least enough to talk to her. She cupped Gigi's head and combed through her hair with her nails whilst still holding her waist in a tight hug with the other arm. Eventually she began to breathe and the tears began to dry leaving her eyes puffy and red yet still Crystal couldn't help but stare into the those incredible green eyes.
'What's wrong Geege?' She cautiously questions...

Please read and reply💘
A/N - someone please help here! I could go in two completely different directions at this point and can't decide which to choose: (I'm trying not to give too much away but need answers)
1) Gigi tells Crystal and they make a plan
2) Gigi doesn't tell her until she is leaving
Which would you prefer/think is better?✨
