(next few chapters are gonna be VERY short sorry y'all i thought it was cool)

Joe's P.O.V

Of course, the day Ben leaves had to come so soon.

I know, I should be used to this by now but I'm just not. I don't think I ever will be. When he leaves it's like a part of me is leaving for god knows how long.

Rather than dwelling on it, I might as well get it done with.

I rolled over onto my other side and checked the time on my phone.

4:35 AM

I sighed and rolled back over to face Ben.

I took in his peaceful sleeping expression one last time before he had to go.

That's something I always miss alot is his face when he sleeps, he's just so calm and peaceful and beautiful.

"Hey, B." I nudged his shoulder.

He didn't move.

"Benny." I whispered again.

"Benny get up please."

He whined and turned away from me.

"C'mon, you don't wanna miss your plane do you?"

I saw his eyes shoot open and he stumbled out of the bedroom to go get ready.

What a child.

•°~

I had Rami drive us to the airport like the last time Ben went for a competition.

It was more comforting than riding in a random persons vehicle.

"I'll be waiting outside loves!" Rami shouted as we walked into the airport.

I gave him a thumbs up as I jogged to catch up with Ben.

When I finally reached Ben I locked our fingers together so I wouldn't lose him again.

We were running quite late so by the time we made it to the gate it was nearly time for Ben to board his plane.

We shared a final hug and kiss and said our goodbyes.

"Ben."

"Hm?"

"I'm gonna miss you."

"I know you will Joey, but I'll be back in no time."

"That's what you say everytime though." I sighed.

"I know, I know, but this time it'll be worth it. I promise."

"Promise?"

"Promise."

I smiled at him and he pecked my cheek.

"I love you Joey."

"I love you too Ben."

"Goodbye, love"

"Goodbye."

He kissed my hand and walked off towards his gate.

I walked back out to the car with my head hung low.

I buckled myself into my seat and turned to look out the window.

"Hey, Joe."

"Yeah?"

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah...I'm okay, why?"

"I was just wondering, you're usually really upset when Ben goes."

"I'm doing oddly well. I think I'll be okay this time."
