Okay so here's chapter 8 I hope you like it. Sorry for the wait! Please leave me a little review :)
Today Eddi's contract ran out, she hadn't decided to stay here in Kerala, no matter how much her boss asked. She missed the rain. Not that Eddi would ever admit it but she missed a lot of things about England, things she never thought she'd miss when she left.
Eddi and Luc had talked things over, after Eddi finished they were going to head back to Leeds for a little bit to check in with Eddi's family and then decide where to go from there. As Eddi walked to work, she couldn't help but think that place she wanted to go next was really to go back home, well back to Holby. She missed it so much and even though Eddi knew it would be hard for her to go back she still wanted to. She hadn't mentioned this to Luc though, thinking he wouldn't want them to go back and re-visit demons from their past.
Luc sat at home, on his laptop. He was sending a email to Sacha explaining how yes they were coming back to the UK, but not back to Holby. He had however promised to drive down and see Sacha while Eddi spend time with Liam. He really missed Holby; it was the only place he'd actually settled at in his whole life. But now he was with Eddi, he didn't care. Sure he missed Holby but he' rather be somewhere else with Eddi then be at Holby without her.
Luc looked around the tiny apartment; he had been calling home for the last few months. It was practically empty now, Eddi had insisted on sorting every out ready to go home, so she could make sure nothing was left behind. There weren't many boxes even though Eddi had packed up basically everything from the flat; it just showed how simple their life had been here in India.
Luc would miss Kerala; it would forever be an important place to him as it was the place where he found Eddi again. But Luc was also looking forward to going back to the cold UK, sometimes the Indian heat got too much for him. Luc checked through all their bags and boxes while Eddi was at work. He didn't want to leave anything behind either; he also made sure everything was sorted out for their return journey back to England.
Eddi made sure to go round the ward and track everyone down to say goodbye. She'd made some great friends here and would miss them. Luc was coming to meet her at the hospital so he could check on Ami one last time and say goodbye. When Eddi came back on to the ward after being dragged off to get some presents Luc was already sat with Ami. Eddi wandered over to see when he'd be ready to leave.
"Hey" Eddi whispered
"Hi, I was just coming to find you." Luc said.
"Well I found you first," Eddi joked, "are you ready to go?"
"Yeah come on, I've said bye." Luc told her, he went over and hugged Ami and his mother one final time before grabbing Eddi by the hand and leading her out the hospital. They walked home quietly, taking in all the sights and sounds, trying to make sure they would remember them.
When they arrived back at the flat Eddi went and got changed, they were flying out tonight as they were both really excited to get home. Their boxes had been collected earlier and sent over to England on a Goods flight. Liam had picked them up from the airport in a van, just like Eddi had told him too.
When Eddi was ready the both grabbed a suitcase and some bags and headed downstairs, after saying goodbye to their apartment. Eddi would really miss it, Luc got them a cab. They were both really squished in the small yellow taxi with all their bags, but they didn't mind. Eddi gazed out the window, at the mountains and the view as she drove further and further away from Kerala. Eventually they arrived at the airport but Eddi didn't realise until Luc squeezed her hand and told her.
They dragged their bags into the airport, past the guards with guns and into the check in area. Both of them got past security with no problems and were soon sat waiting in a tiny, run down airport for their plane.
Eventually it arrived, late but still it got there. Luc had to shake Eddi awake as she'd fallen asleep on his shoulder. They both got up grabbed their bags and headed over to the plane, hand in hand.
As Eddi walked across the landing strip to the plane, she soaked up the Indian sun for the final time. She looked at Luc and he smiled reassuringly. Together they got on the plane, not knowing where they'd end up in the future whether they'd pluck up the courage to go back to Holby; the place where it all started and all ended. They might end up spending their lives travelling from one country to another, they didn't know but they did know one thing for sure: they'd be together.
