"So, they're just leaving?" My mom asked the nest morning as I sat at the kitchen table, about to cry. I held back my tears and nodded, "One Direction's publicist called Luke's mom and they're leaving tomorrow."

She wrapped her arms around me, "Don't cry, honey. Luke loves you, that's obvious. Plus, Rylie isn't leaving too... Is she?"

"Not that I know of." I felt the tears sting my eyes. All of a sudden, I just started crying, "Oh, sweetie." My mom pulled me into her arms and I just sat there and cried. I felt like a little kid again. Like I scraped my knee while playing and my mom sat and held me until the pain stopped. Except, this was different. It hurt much -much- worse than a scraped knee. I could barely breathe. My stomach hurt and my throat felt like it was closing up. My heartbeat sped up and then my breaths did too.

There was a knock on the door. My mom stood up and walked over to it. I clutched my knees to my chest and balled my eyes out.

"Neptune?" I heard someone say. It was Luke. He rushed over to me, "Babe, what's wrong?"

Mom answered for me, "She's been so upset since she woke this morning. Doesn't want you to leave." Luke hugged me and kissed my temple.

"Don't cry. We'll be back before you know it. Did you see the new song on YouTube?"

Seriously?! He was leaving for months tomorrow and he was asking me about a YouTube video? I don't mean to sound selfish, but really? He has a whole life ahead of him and it's all, 'Oh my god, Neptune, new video.' I wiped my tears, "No, I'll look at it later, though. You need to go pack, you're leaving tomorrow."

"I already did. I kind of figured that we could go out and spend all the time together that we have left." He suggested. I nodded, "Let me go get ready." Luke took his hand of my leg and followed me upstairs. I was pretty surprised my mom didn't make him stay downstairs.

We walked into my room. I went into my walk-in closet and just got dressed in there because Luke couldn't see me anyway. My outfit consisted of skinny jeans, a white Sleeping With Sirens shirt, and my fluent black Converse. I walked back out and Luke smiled, "You look good."

"Not really, but thanks." I leaned down and kissed his lips, "I'm really gonna miss you."

"I know, I'll miss you too. But, I'll call you everyday and we'll text a lot. We'll be back together before you know it."

"I know, but after you leave... It's just not gonna be the same." I sighed.
