Chapter 20: Overcome
Patricia's P.O.V:
"So this is it?" I asked Eddie, on the morning of our departure.
"Looks like it..." He answered, pointing towards my taxi.
"Well, I guess this is goodbye..." I hugged him. As much as it pained me to do so, I didn't want to let go of him. Of everything I've overcome, this has to be the hardest thing I've ever done. "I'll miss you, Eddie" I whispered.
"I'll miss you too, Yacker" He sniffed.
"I want you to know, that it doesn't matter where we take this road, someone's gotta
go. And also, I'll love you. I still do" I said, pulling him in for one last kiss. It was a long, long one.
"We can Skype each other, and call everyday!" he said, wiping my eyes. "Take a breath and listen, I'll be in America. Nothings gonna change that, four years from now. Patricia, I'll always love you, just remember that" He picked up my bags, and carried them over to the taxi.
We hugged once more, and then I climbed into the taxi.
"Liverpool central station please" I said, reaching for my iPod. I closed my eyes, and once I was around the corner, I breathed out and started to sob.
Eddie's P.O.V:
"She's really gone" I said, staring out into space. Fabian put a hand on my shoulder.
"It gonna be ok Eddie, look there's your taxi. Well, goodbye mate. It's been great having you as a roommate" we 'Guy' hugged and then, I got into the taxi. Well, this is hard.
"Liverpool airport please" we drove for about twenty minutes before we arrived at the airport. Of everything I've ever overcome, this has to be the hardest thing ever. I walked in to the airport and found my flight number. Flight 206, to Los Angles, leaves at One forty. I checked in and let my bag be taken. I got a coffee, and sat down. One thirty five, I better leave.
Sitting on the aeroplane gave me time to think. Why did I want to do this? I put my head on the window and fell asleep thinking about Patricia.
Patricia's P.O.V:
Uh, sitting on a train for two and a half hours gives you butt ache. I felt refreshed. But then the realization of that I probably wasn't going to see Eddie for four years from now. Maybe talking to him on the phone wouldn't be so bad; at least I could still hear his voice. And Skype would work both ways, unless the connection was bad, especially from different parts of the world. I never even saw it coming, sometimes change is for the best though.
I sat in my new apartment. I didn't know what I was doing there. But I guess this was just something I'd I have to overcome.
I know. Sad ending!
The sequel will either be up today or tomoz.
Not sure.
Hope you enjoyed the last chapter!
