Mallory's POV

Me and Hunter have been together for 3 days now, and since the other day he's been acting strange. When I wake up he's in the living room pacing back and forth.

"Hunter?" I ask.

He stops pacing and sits down on the couch like nothing was wrong.

"Yeah?" He says.

I give him a confused look. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah."

"No you're not."

He stands up.

"Okayyy. You're right." He admits.

"What is it?"

"Well, it's just I'm leaving sooner than I thought."

I'm not really sure what to say so I just stare at him.

"Why?" I ask breaking the silence.

"I have to go on tour." He said silently.

"When?"

"It starts March 20th, so I have to leave tomorrow."

Once again, I had no idea what to say, so I just ran upstairs and ran into my room, locked the door, and cried what felt like all the tears I had. I heard footsteps slowly walk up the stairs.

"Mallory, please." I heard Hunter's voice.

He turns the doorknob a few times and then silently knocks on the door. I ignored him and continued to cry.

"Can I come in? Please?" He asks.

"No." I finally respond.

"Come on, please?"

I sigh and stand up and walk over and unlock and open the door.

"What?" I ask flatly.

"I'm sorry."

I let out a breath I didn't know I had. "It's not your fault."

"Please don't cry." He says wiping below my eyes with his thumbs. I nod.

"It's just that you're leaving tomorrow and we've only been together for 3 days. It's so soon."

"I know." He says. "But we'll be okay."

I nod. "I hope your right."

The day went by fast and me and Hunter didn't talk as much as we usually did, and we went to bed early because Hunter has to get up early. While we layed in bed, Hunter spoke up.

"I don't like this."

I turned over to face him before responding.

"You don't like what?"

"It's just like three years ago all over again. But it's different this time."

I nod understanding what he's saying.

"I promise I'll call you everyday, and we can skype too." He added.

"Ok."

"Goodnight. I love you."

"Love you too."

We woke up at 5:00 AM the next morning because of the alarm clock. I get out of bed and turn the alarm off, and Hunter slept through the noise. I giggle when I look at him because he looks so adorable when he's asleep.

"Hunterrrr." I say trying to get him to wake up. No response.

"Hunter.... Hunterrrr..... HUNTER!" I picked up my pillow and threw it at him. He opened his eyes a little and smacked his lips.

"Heh?" He said before closing his eyes and starting to doze off.

"Hunter! Get up!"

He rolled over on his stomach.

"I don't wannnnaaaaa." He moaned.

"You have to!"

He sat up lazily. "I'm up, I'm up." He waved his hands around still half asleep.

He got out of bed and walked over to me.

"Good morning." I say.

"Goooooooood Morningg." He said and I giggle.

We walked downstairs and ate breakfast before he changed and packed for tour. When he came back downstairs he was wide awake.

"So when are they coming to get you?" I ask. He looked at his watch.

"About two more hours."

I nod sadly looking down at the wooden floor below me. He walked over and kissed me.

"It's going to be okay." He said and I nodded and felt my eyes getting watery.

"When are you coming back?" I ask, remembering I forgot to ask him.

"The last show is May 31st, so I'll be back on the first of June."

Great two months without him. I nod again.

"This is going to be the worst two months ever." I say.

"I know. Wait a minute." He responds.

"What?"

"Why don't you come with me on tour?"
