Homesick

this is based on the song Homesick by Noah Kahan 

Two months since you got back
How have you been and are you bored yet?

Quinns POV

Just under two months ago y/n came back from visiting her family in England she decided to move to Vancouver for me when I went pro because I needed my other half. I felt bad for her moving so far away from her family.

something was off about her, we sat on the couch next to each other she was cradled into my arms, and I ran my hands through her hair

"what's wrong love" I whispered "I don't know, Quinn. I just... I miss home. I miss everything—my family, my friends, the familiar streets." she cried

"I know it's hard, babe. Moving to a new place is never easy, but we'll get through this together. You and me, right?" i gently kissed the top of her head

Y/n POV

I'm homesick

I lay there in Quinn's arms just trying to hold everything in. I'm homesick and I need my mom by my side and not just on the phone, I miss my little brother's stupid jokes

I would leave if only I could find a reason

I would leave Quinn if he wasn't the most amazing guy I have ever had, I know he would buy me a plane ticket or understand why I want to go back home but he needs me here and I just can't leave him.

As the days turned into weeks, I struggled to find my footing in a place where it just wasn't home. no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't shake the feeling of displacement.

Tears pricked at the corners of my eyes as I leaned into his embrace, feeling a sense of peace wash over me. In that moment, surrounded by the beauty of the city and the warmth of Quinn's love, I realized that home wasn't something to be found—it was something to be created, one moment at a time.
