I woke up to George yelling in my face; "Get the fuck up!" To a simp, that would be nice, to a sister? Not so much.

"Why don't you shut the fuck up Gogy. You aren't being baby right now."

I rolled over on the couch to find Tommy not there, which meant more room for me. I got nice and comfy, holding onto the comforter, before Clay ripped it off me.

"I'm gonna rip those hands everyone simps for right off." I said and got up, ruffling his hair.

There was a bagel sitting on the island for me, so I ate it, watching Tommy down 3 tylenol.

"Did someone drink too much?"

"Shut up."

I walked out and changed into a pair of shorts and a t-shirt, preparing for the day. I sat down in the living room, scrolling through Instagram.

"Ok." Nick announced. "I know tomorrow the British people go home, so we are going to this cool place near Forth Worth."

We all walked out the door, and out into the street, leaving the 20 minute walk for us to talk. 

"Clay! Did you know your ass is trending on twitter?" 

He turned to look at my phone and just laughed. "Cool, the ass will reign supreme." 

Everyone laughed and kept on talking as we walked into the building, which I was now informed was a race track.

"I have a driver's license!" I said to the clerk, who thought I was 9. "Lemme see it." 

I pulled out the UK drivers license and handed it to her, to which she groaned and gave me keys. 
"Take the other brit with you."

I rolled my eyes and walked along, to the beautiful car I got to drive. I pulled the door open and got inside the skinny car, starting the engine. 

Holy shit, this is a fucking nice car.

I waited for Tommy to get his slow ass in the car, before speeding off to the rest of the guys. 

"Great, we have two Brits behind the wheel. Don't kill us." 

"Thanks for the optimism Clay, will remember to hit you." 

I sped off on the track, leaving the rest of the gang to catch up. The wind pulled my ponytail up right, leaving the wind in my ears. 

"THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME!" Tommy yelled from behind me. 

We all zipped around the track a for a couple hours goofing off, until it was about 2:30, which is a perfectly reasonable time to get lunch. Right? Right. 

Once all the keys were handed back, we went off to this place called IHOP. Apparently they sell pancakes. I've heard of it, but this is not a British delicacy. And, American pancakes are thick as all hell, they call regular pancakes here crepes. The fuck is a crepe? It's just a regular pancake. 

We sat down at the booth and ordered, the waiter flabbergasted at the amount of accent she had to hear. 5/7 here were from a completely different country. 

The pancakes got here, both Clay and Nick's stack looked like it would weigh 100 pounds. 

"How do you guys eat the fluffy shit so easily?" I asked, looking at Wilbur and his American pancakes. "Traitor." I mouthed to him. 

"The pancakes are pancakes." Nick replied, shoving another one in his mouth.

After lunch, we went to the movies to see Unhinged. It was a pretty good movie, the salty popcorn and fizzy fountain drink making it better. 

We got home at 7, watching The Office and discussing tomorrow. 

"I can't believe we have to leave tomorrow." Wilbur said sadly, watching Pam's interview. 

"It's not like we can stay longer, we don't have visas." I said, leaning on Tommy's shoulder. 

"Well, I have a visa." George said, making me glare at him. 

"But the lot of us don't. We have to get together sometime. I can't believe that we have to leave." 

Soon it turned to 10 o'clock, and then 11, leaving us to go to bed to make sure we catch the 10 o'clock flight. 

"Good night everybody." I said dejectedly. I laid down on the couch and pulled the comforter over my shoulders and faced the couch, falling asleep. 

"Tomorrow we are moving to Brighton!" My Mum announced to everybody at the going away party. All of my friends were crying, about the 3 hour difference between us, and how it'll be so hard to hang out any more. 

"I mean, you'll be closer to your brother." Cassidy said, pulling me into a hug. 

"You will always be my number 1 best friend." I said, holding the gift she got me. 

"Even over Wilbur?"

"Of course over Wilbur." 

I opened the small box to find a necklace with two rings that were locked inside each other, which was identical to the one she was wearing. I slipped the necklace on and hugged her again, tears dripping from my eyes. 

"I am going to miss you so much." I said, letting go of her. 

I walked Cassidy to the door, waving bye while wiping away tears, fiddling with my necklace. 

"I love you always Cassy!" I yelled out the door, hearing her yell it back, getting in her car. I shrunk down and sobbed, watching my Mum put the rest of my boxes in my car, ready for me to drive tomorrow. 

I just had to say goodbye to my very best friend. 

I had to say goodbye again tomorrow, to some of the people I've known for so long. 

I wasn't mentally prepared to say goodbye. I had to do it once, I don't think I can do it again.
