"Please don't cry." He said whipping her small tears traveling down her beautiful face.
"I can't help it. I don't want to leave you here. Man, why did I actually go through with that deal with Armstrong?"
"Because it's a good experience."
"Blah, blah, blah."
"Quiet. I know you can't wait to get out of the states and go bar hopping with that 80s guy."
"Seriously Luke? Bar hopping? Who does that anymore besides for the kids who say 'gnarly' and do the big keg parties. And 80s guy? You mean Bon Jovi? Seriously Luke, watch some VH1 while I'm gone? Everyone knows he's busy with his weird arena football team."
"You know what I mean."
He looked down at his shoes.
This would be the last time he would see her in seven months.
And he knew she was doing this for them.
He wants her to make sure that this life, the whole small town and loving a guy who owns a diner is enough for her.
It may have been his and Dean's last fiasco at the Twickam House or it might have just been his internal instinct, but he knew she needed to do this.
To leave him for seven months
"Flight 403 will now be boarding rows C through E." the woman on the announcer said.
"Well I guess that's me." she said looking from her ticket.
"Yeah, that's you." Luke looked shyly to her face and saw that she was still scared as she was when he proposed the idea to her.
"C'mere." she said seductively.
He wrapped his arms tightly around her waist.
"You know, this might be the last time in a while that you kiss anyone, so you better do it quick. And it better be good."
"Oh really?" he said teasingly when his face was just a few centimeters from hers.
"Yeah and you better hurry your ass." she whispered right before they experienced their last kiss for 7 months.
Seven long months.
Seven lonely months.
Seven months where they wouldn't fall asleep next to each other.
Seven months where he would have to get used to closing up with diner on time because he knew she wasn't going to come in after a Friday Night Dinner or work at the inn.
Seven months where she would have the jump across Europe and sleep a stiff hotel room everynight.
Seven months where their relationship was based on phone calls, letters, packages and e-mails.
Seven months where anything could happen to either one.
Seven months where their lives could change forever.
And will.
When she reluctantly pulled back from the loss of air.
"Believe Luke. Always believe." she whispered before hugging him again.
And then he watched her walk away.
And his heart was breaking.

Present
She looked down at her steering wheel hoping that he wasn't there.
It was just an allusion.
It's just an optical allusion from her mind.
Damn her mind.
She looked back up and there he was.
Starring at her.
His sad voice screaming for him to open the car door.
But she couldn't.
She felt paralyzed.
If she opened the door, then that meant that there was a chance.
And she couldn't give him that.
Not after he didn't believe.
Hmm .. review? I'd like that. I'd really like that. That would make me want to get this story out of my system sooner.
