I ran a hand through my hair and leaned back in the chair. Beck and André were talking to their recruiters, getting ready to leave for basic training. "So we gonna go to the airport?" I asked, looking at Mrs. Oliver.

She shook her head. "You guys can, but we gotta get going soon." She said.

I knew that was sad, but she was also proud. After all her son will be protecting the nation. "Aww...You don't want to see him off?" I asked, glancing at Jade. She was being extremely quiet for the past thirty minutes. I couldn't help but wonder why that is. "When are they getting on the plane?" I looked back at Mrs. Oliver.

"They'll be leaving here in fifteen minutes. They won't actually board the plane until one forty-five." Mr. Oliver answered. I didn't realize that he was listening in on the conversation.

I nodded. "Aren't you worried? You won't get to see him for a few months."

"Of course we're worried but Beck made this decision, and we're going to support that." Mrs. Oliver said. I smiled a little and then looked away, I understood that. It was Beck's decision, unless André pressured him into joining. I doubt it though. Their best friends, I think Beck would have joined the army anyways.

"Hey."

I looked up to find Beck looking down at me. "Hey yourself, so you get everything sorted out with your recruiter?" I asked.

He nodded and took a seat next to me. "Yeah. So you going to see me off?"

I glanced at Jade. "Yeah." I said.

Beck glanced at Jade to. "Jade? You gonna see André and I off too?"

She snapped out of her thoughts, so it seems. "Yeah. Why wouldn't I?" She asked, crossing her arms over her chest.

I smiled and then looked around. "Hey where's Robbie and Cat? They came along didn't they?" I swore they rode with Beck's parents, since there wasn't enough room in Beck's car.

"We're right here."

I glanced up to find them walking towards us. "Where did you two go?" André asked. That was a good question.

Cat looked away for a few seconds. "We made this for both of you." She said, handing Beck something. I had to admit that I was curious. "It's a collection of songs that we performed during school. Figured you'd want something to listen to on the plane. I don't know if they'll let you keep it once you arrive at the army boot camp."

Beck smiled. "Thanks. I'm sure it'll come handy." André nodded in agreement.

"Hey Beck, we're gonna get going. Remember to call or write as much as you can." Mr. Oliver said, giving his son a hug. You'd think that he'd show more emotion, but guess not. I don't know if it even hit him yet.

Mrs. Oliver on the other-hand, was showing emotion. "I'm going to miss you so much." She said, hugging him.

"I promise to call or write." Beck said.

I glanced at André. "Why didn't you parents come along?"

"They had to work."

I'm surprised. Beck's parents took the day off from work just so they could say good-bye the proper way, but Andre's parents couldn't? That didn't seem right. "Awww...Here I'll give you a hug." I said, smiling.

André laughed and accepted my hug. "Thanks. I feel so much better." I chuckled.

I took a step back and then looked around. "I think everyone is getting ready to leave." I noticed that the room was less crowded. André nodded, and then looked at Beck. "Guess that means you'll be leaving too?"

"Yeah. See you at the airport?" Beck asked.

I nodded. "Yeah." I gave him a quick hug. I watched him leave with André, and then turned around to find Jade staring at me. "What?"

"How are you doing with all of this?" She asked.

I was a bit surprised. "Okay, I guess. I don't think it's hit me yet."

Jade nodded. "I'm sure it will once we get to the airport." She said, walking past me.

I didn't move for a few seconds. "Wait, what about you?" I asked, following Jade. I heard her groan, meaning she didn't want to talk about it but she should know by now that I will not let it go. At least not until I get an answer from her. "Come on Jade, this is a huge step for both André and Beck. You must be feeling an emotion."

"Even if I did, I wouldn't tell you. Cat! Robbie! come on, we're going to the airport." Jade said.

I rolled my eyes and got in on the passenger's side. "I'm not gonna drop it." I said, running a hand through my hair. Jade glanced at me and most likely rolled her eyes.

The ride to the airport was quiet, everyone was lost in their own thoughts. I think. I know I was, mostly wondering how I'd react once I see Beck and André board the plane. Would I be sad? Cry? I most likely would. I sighed and ran a hand through my hair. "We're at the airport." I looked at Jade and then looked out the car window. "You coming or what?" Guess I was so lost in thought that I didn't even notice that we had arrived at the airport. That can happen sometimes.

"No I want to stay in the car." I said sarcastically.

Jade rolled her eyes. "Could have fooled me." She said, walking away.

I got out of the car and followed her. "I bet." There are times when we don't get a long. I walked into the airport, wondering where André and Beck were. "Do you know where they are?" I asked, running a hand through my hair again. I was not looking forward to the next half an hour, that's if we even get that much time. I wasn't fully sure, so I looked at the time. One O'Clock, so there was forty-five minutes until the plane will leave, but they might have to board the plane sooner than that.

"Gate twelve." Jade said.

I just merrily nodded. It was starting to dawn on me that I won't get to see Beck or André for a few months, and that was going to be extremely hard. I've grown used to seeing them everyday, and just last night I confessed my feelings to Beck. "You okay Tor? You've been quiet." I glanced over to find Cat walking next to me.

I smiled. "Yeah, just been thinking."

"About?"

"Everything that has happened. I wish it was June, because then we wouldn't have to worry about Beck and André leaving." I shrugged, but there was nothing that could be done. June was long gone, the summer was coming to an end.

"True, but all things have to come to end sometime." She actually seemed normal for once.

I nodded in agreement. "There's Beck and André."


This isn't my best chapter. I kept struggling with it. Guess I did get Writer's block.
Next chapter will probably more emotional.
