The next day I woke up at my house. Today is Monday. It’s 5:30. I had just left Jeydon’s house. He had to finish packing. I was on my way home when my phone rang. It was Austin. “Hello?”

            “Hey. Lyzza and I were wondering if you want to go meet Danny, Paul, and us at the mall.

            “Sure,” I said, and then I hung up the phone.

            We all met at the food court. “Hey guys,” I said.

            “Hey. What’re you doing here?” Danny asked, furrowing his eyebrows.

            I cocked my head to the side. “What do you mean? Am I not wanted here?” I asked.

            “No, it’s not that. It’s just, aren’t you supposed to be with Jeydon and not here?” Danny asked.

            “I was just with Jeydon,” I replied.

            “Did you guys even say bye?” Paul asked.

            “Well, no. Not really,” I shrugged as if it was nothing.

            “Are you serious? What time is his flight?” Austin asked urgently.

            “Um 8:00.”

            “Well it’s 6:45. If we leave now, we could maybe just make it,” Austin said, doing the calculations in his head.

            “Okay.” We all rushed out of the mall and quickly got to them airport at 7:40. “Where could he be?” I asked, frantically looking around.

            Lyzza stood on her toes then yelled, “There he is!”           

            I pushed through the crowd of people and found him with a bunch of his old friends, but suddenly he was gone. I continued to run through the crowd until I bumped into someone. “Caitlyn, what are you doing here?” he asked.

            “I wanted to tell you something. Jeydon, I need to tell you something. I love you. I know I always say it, but I mean it. I love you. I’ll miss you when you’re gone.” I said all in one shot of a breath,

            “Caitlyn, I don’t have to go if you don’t want me to go,” Jeydon said.

            “No, you have to go,” I urged him.

            “Are you sure? I’ll miss you so much. I love you,” he said.

            I nodded my head rapidly. “I’m sure. I love you too.” I pulled him into a really tight hug. That was when I heard a lady’s voice calling all people to their designated flights. I started to cry as I realized that that was his cue.

            “Hey, don’t cry. I have to go, but I’ll be back soon. I promise. I love you so much,” Jeydon choked out. I saw a small tear exit the side of his eye, but he quickly wiped it away in hopes that I didn’t see it.

            “I love you too. Just make me proud, okay?”

            “I promise.”

            I nodded my head,” Bye. I love you.”

            “I love you too,” he said, and then left. A small tear ran down my cheek. “I’ll call you as soon as I land!” he yelled back at me.
