Chapter 16


Gina ran in her room and grabbed her suitcase out of the closet. She stopped for a second and heard Liz and Nick talking. "Liz listen to me..im sorry I've been acting strange. I just think we acted too quick on our feelings..." "Oh thats a good excuse! You were the one who pressured me into it in the first place!" "I know I did..I'm sorry..but it was too much to deal with ..and I needed some time..." "Well..then I'll give you plenty!" Liz screamed and ran out of the bathroom and out of the room. Gina cringed as she heard the door slam. She shook her head and began throwing clothes in her luggage. "Gina? What are you doing here?" "I live here.." she answered quickly. "Why arent you with AJ?" "He'd rather be with a bleach blond bimbo in a mini skirt.." she answered coldly and shut her luggage. She went into the bathroom and stuck her cosmetics in a bag. "You two had a fight too?" Nick asked following her. "How'd you guess? But im leaving..I dont care how many people they have to bump off the plane..I'm on the quickest flight out here.." "Gina dont do that..you'll regret it.." Gina shook her head. "Maybe..but I'll regret it more if I stay." with that she slammed her luggage shut and walked out the door.

"GINA WAIT!" AJ screamed as he ran out of the room. "Not talking to you.." Gina said still walking. AJ grabbed one of her luggages. "Listen we need to talk." "GIVE IT BACK!" She screamed. "Only if you'll hear me out!" Gina dropped her luggage and crossed her arms. "Talk.." "That girl in there, was the wardrobe advisor. I told her I needed a suit dry cleaned and she gave it to me..I was in a towel because I was gonna change into it..thats all and if you dont believe me..call management. Here." he said handing her her luggage. Gina sighed. "Alright..I can buy it but.." "But what? Gina whats wrong?" "Why were you so distant with this whole pregnancy thing. I felt like I was all by myself in there..I cant help but think thats what you'll do when you go back on tour.." "I was uncomfortable..I'd make you more nervous if I was there.." "No you wouldnt of..trust me..but I think things have changed, and maybe..we should just break up.." "No Gina..I dont want to do this..I'm sorry I've been distant..I've just had alot on my mind." "Like dry cleaning suits while I sit in a doctors office?" "No...I deal with problems by ignoring them..im sorry.." "I am too..because I want to end this before it puts an end to our friendship.." Gina said grabbing her luggage and walking back to her room.

2 days later..the last day..

Gina sat on her bed staring at a picture of AJ and her in Disneyland. *We seemed so happy..* she thought, moving her hand over it. Gina laughed to herself. *Who knew it would end like this..* She started to pull her luggage out the door. She stopped and put her ear to Nick and AJ's door. She heard Nick and Liz talking.

"Listen Liz..I dont want you to leave like this.." Liz opened her mouth to say something but she couldnt get the words out. She knew she would cry if she did. Instead she just put her arms around Nick and hugged him as tight as she could. "I'm going to miss you..but..I cant..I dont..want to deal with this long distance relationship..maybe we should end this now." Liz finally spoke. Nick nodded, knowing it was the best way. "I'll miss you Liz.." he choked out. Liz closed her eyes and blinked back her tears. "I know.." she whispered before she pulled her luggages out the door.

The car ride there was in silence. Gina sat in the front, gripping tightly to AJ's hand and Nick and Liz sat in the back, looking in opposite directions. Gina turned the radio station and settled on a song. "I will remember you. Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by. Weep not for the memories. Remember the good times that we had? I let them slip away from us when things got bad. How clearly I first saw you smilin' in the sun. Wanna feel your warmth upon me, I wanna be the one. I will remember you. I'm so tired but I can't sleep. Standin' on the edge of something much too deep. It's funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word. We are screaming inside, but we can't be heard. I'm so afraid to love you, but more afraid to loose. Clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose Once there was a darkness, deep and endless night. You gave me everything you had, oh you gave me light. And I will remember you.Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories. And I will remember you.. Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by..." Gina started to cry softly and AJ squeezed her hand. Nick and Liz just looked at eachother and she immediatley moved closer to him and he put his arm around her.

They arrived at the airport and the four split up and waited for the flight to be called. Nick and Liz were hugging near the window. "It'll be ok, we'll see eachother." Nick whispered. "When? Six months..a year..you dont know how long its gonna take..or if at all even.." Nick shook his head. "We'll call eachother. I could never forget you.." Liz tried to smile. "Final boarding call for flight 517" the intercom shouted. Liz closed her eyes. "Bye Nick..I love you.." she whispered and walked off.

AJ and Gina stood near the gift shops. She heard her flight being called and broke down into tears. AJ took her in his arms as she bawled on his shoulder. "Shh..I'll call you..we'll keep in touch.." he whispered, stroking her hair. "Mm hmm.." Gina said quietly. She broke away from him and looked in his eyes. "I love you.." she whispered before she boarded the plane, not once looking back.

*First chapter you stole my heart away from me. Made me believe true love could be. We were so close you changed my life. How could a love so strong not go right? Final chapter I say goodbye, I made you cry, I did what I could, you know I tried.There's no more to say, so I'll go my way. You know that it hurts me, but that's the price we pay. Where do we go from here? When it's said our love would stay around? Why do I even care? When I looked it can't be found. My heart is broken down. I'm turning pages once again. It's time to make this story end. Time to close the book to this story. I don't want to read it no more. Time to close the book to this story. Another writer will come along, I'm sure...*
