When we fall apart

16

  The rest of the day goes by and soon it's time for bed. They are only asleep for a few hours when Billie's phone starts to ring uncontrollably, she picks it up and answers the call, "hello?" She says still waking up, it was Finneas calling.
"Hi, sorry to wake you at this hour but mom told me that you need to get headed to the airport right now." Finneas tells Billie.
His tone is more serious then usual, "Yeah okay, is a something wrong?" She asks.
"I don't know, maybe? Probably? I just recently got home from collage and Celestial's parents keep sending people out looking for her." Finneas says.
"Oh shit okay, like the cops? She's 18 so they can't really make her go home.." Billie asks
"No, definitely not cops. Most likely her abusers is what mom said. Just stay safe. Dad pulled a few strings with his work, you two are good to go. See you at the airport." Finneas says and then hangs up.
  Billie gets her shoes on and then walks over to the bedside, "Celestail, come on we need to go." She whispers. Celestial stirs and mumbles, "no, I'm.. tired..." 
Billie sits beside her and kisses her on the forehead then says, "I know.. I'm sorry bubba but we need to go to the airport."

Celestial sits up, and then throws herself back down onto the bed, "five more minutes." She says.
Billie laughs and rolls her eyes, "no no. No more minutes, you can sleep on the 12 hour flight now come on."
Billie grabs her girlfriend's hand and practically pulls her out of bed, "here, it's cold put this on." She says throwing her a sweater.
Celestial quickly puts on her shoes, "Is everything  okay?" She asks
"I don't know, it will be once we get on the plane though."  Billie tells her.
Billie grabs her keys then opens the door, "It's freezing!" She says once she steps outside.
Celestial runs up behind her and jumps onto Billie's back, "there, I am your coat." She says
"You are such a dork, I love you." Billie laughs.

They get in the car and Billie drives to the airport, it's almost completely empty when they get there but they soon spot Billie's family. "Hi there Billie and Billie's friend." Patrick says and gives Billie a side hug.
"Girlfriend. She's my girlfriend." Billie corrects him.
"Oh don't mind him, he knows who you are."Maggie tells Celestial who remains quite.
Finneas hands them their luggage, "you're really brave to be doing this. I'm proud of you both." Finneas tells his sister and her girlfriend.
Celestial grabs onto Billie's hand and squeezes it tightly as a way to find security. Billie squeezes it back, "it's okay babe, I'm right here." She says softly.
They get their luggage checked in and get their plane tickets and passports from Patrick.
It's boarding time and time to say goodbye, goodbye to America, and the troubles that once held them captive, goodbye to the abusers. Billie says goodbye to her family and they all cried and hugged, Celestial stayed back and watched.

Only a couple other people out on the flight, although they are strangers they make Celestial a bit nervous. The whole situation is very overwhelming. Billie looks over and see's a single tear fall off Celestial's face as she bounces her legs from anxiety.
"I'm right here princess. I'm right here." Billie hums and then wipes the tears off her face and replaces them with a kiss.
Celestial grabs Billie's hand and holds it tightly then places her head on Billie's shoulder.
The plane takes off and Celestial cries harder, "I.. I.. I'm sorry." She says.
"Why are you apologizing? You didn't do anything wrong." Billie tells her.
"For..f..for crying." Celestial stutters.
"Celestial, baby, you can cry all you want. There is absolutely no reason to be sorry." Billie says, then brings Celestial's hand up and kisses it, "I love you Celestial." She says giving her hand a squeeze
"I love you too Billie." Celestial says back.
