Hey everyone! So today's chapter is really short, but I really like how Harry and Eve interact with each other, and I hope you do too! Make sure to read the note at the end , because there is a special announcement!! ;)

Only two more chapter after this one. Are you ready?

Enjoy!

Eve's Pov:

"What about the store?" I ask frantic as I check another item off my list. The past few days have been full of phone calls, packing, apartment hunting, emails, so much to do and such little time to do it in. I've also been helping out with planning the second part of Harry's tour. Lately I've been stretched so thin.

"I'll handle that, you just have to trust me." Sam says reassuringly. I give her a nod, and look at the next thing on my list. "Boxes, I need boxes." I say running towards the other end of the store. "Eve, relax, you have plenty of time." Harry says, chasing after me.

Everyone has been so supportive of me leaving. While very few know who I'm working with or where I'm going, they are all pitching in, making this whole thing a little easier.

It's been a little weird hanging out with Harry, with the break up article being released soon. Being in love with a guy who has no idea makes it all the more strange. But we still talk, he still helps, and I still haven't told him. I don't know if I will or not. Me leaving won't help the situation either way.

"Do you have bubble wrap?" Harry asks me as we separate from Sam. "Not nearly enough." I tell him, guiding us down an isle.

I turn around to see Harry pulling up his hood, and putting on sunglasses as a group of teenage girls walk by. "You look ridiculous." I say, laughing. He lets out a smile.

"The last thing we need right now is to get harassed by fans." he says as we start walking again.

"Yeah, I guess you're right. Here it is." I say, grabbing a few rolls of bubble wrap and putting them in the cart.

I check the item off my list, looking around to see where the dog treats are. I'm going to need a lot of those if I'm going to drag Roman through an airport.

We get our remaining items, meet up with Sam, and then head back to my apartment. Harry has to go to a meeting, but Sam stays to help label boxes. As we assemble and tape boxes, she keeps eyeing me, looking away when I catch her in the act.

"What Samantha?" I ask, laughing. "Nothing, it just seems that it's taking you so long to notice the elephant in the room." she responds. I look at her, confused.

"Do you see how close he's being with you right now? My guess is that he's trying to soak up all of the Evangeline Williams he can before she leaves to go live her crazy life." she tells me, labeling a box 'shoes'.

"Do you really think he's worried about me leaving?" I ask. "Hun, I know he is. He's going to miss you so much more than you realize." she says.

"How do you know all of this?" I ask, confused on how she has so much information on Harry.

"Sarah and I may or may not relay information." she says, looking away from me. "Of course you do." I respond, laughing.

I would be lying if I said I wasn't worried about how things will be with Harry after I leave. With the article coming out, I sometimes wonder how we're going to be able to interact publicly. It's all so complicated and while I just want to stay in my apartment and not deal with it, I have to.

Sam and I spend hours packing, when I hear a knock on my door. I look at Sam who wasn't expecting anyone, and get up to go open it.

I open the door to see Harry standing there with a bag full of Chinese food, and coffees from Beachwood. "I figured you two would be hungry." he offers as he walks inside.

"Now what would we do without you." I joke, making him smile. I look over to Sam who is already biting down on an egg roll.

"What? He was right, I'm starving." she says with food in her mouth. I let out a laugh, but stop when I hear my phone ding, an email notification showing up on my phone.

"It's the job." I tell them as I open the email. I look at the message sent, and my jaw drops.

"Apparently they need me on a plane by tomorrow." I say my anxiety increases. I look around the room to see all of the things that haven't been packed. "Oh crap." I say as I let out a nervous laugh.

"I'm calling in reinforcements." Harry says, pulling out his phone.

"Okay, okay, this is going to be okay." I say to myself, trying to convince myself that I'm ready to leave.

Here we go
