Seven Weeks

7 weeks seemed so long.

When Nick told me he was going on tour my breathing stopped. I knew what tour entailed. Odd schedules, loads of screaming girls, tears, and trust. I had to trust him not to cheat on me and he had to trust that I wouldn't get jealous and do something drastic.

He had been on tour before, but those were only state-wide tours. This one was different. This was his first major tour after being signed. It was nation-wide and the first one he would be away more than 2 weeks at a time. This time I wouldn't see him for seven weeks.

To say I was going to miss him was an understatement. We had never really faced a huge chunk of time where we wouldn't see each other. We had been dating for a year and a half and the longest we had been away from each other is when I went to Ohio for three weeks. My grandpa had gotten really sick so we flew out to see him. While we were there he ended up passing away and our stay elongated itself.

Nick Santino had stolen my heart our freshman year of high school and had no intensions of giving it back any time soon. Not that I wanted him to.

And because of this reason I was letting him go for seven weeks, and why I was going to endure the odd schedules, the screaming girls, and most of all the tears.

I looked at the door when I heard a knock. I got off my bed and opened up my bedroom door. Nick was leaning against the door frame with a smile plastered on his face. This smile had been permanently spread on his face since he found out about tour. I hated to be the damper on his good mood.

"Hey babe." He said as he leaned forward and placed a small kiss on my lips.

" Hey. What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be packing? You leave tomorrow." I questioned.

"Should I leave?" Nick joked.

"No! I was just saying." I replied walking back to my bed and laid down.

"I just wanted to spend some last minute alone time with my girl." He said to me, laying down next to me.

"You are so corny. I am going to miss that when you leave." I told him. I couldn't help but bring up the impending goodbye.

"You make it sound like I'm dying. I'm just going on tour. We will talk all the time. I promise!" He said. He kissed my forehead and I snuggled into his chest more.

"I just fell like you are being ripped out of my life and I am going to fall flat on my ass without you." I explained in all seriousness.

"You will be perfectly fine! I'm not being ripped out of you life either, when those seven weeks are up I will be right back here and you will wish I was back on tour." He said with a smile.

I kissed his lips lightly and looked up at him. "I would never wish that. Will you stay with me tonight?"

"Yeah. Tonight is the last night I get to hold you in my arms for almost 2 months, I didn't plan on spending it anywhere else." he whispered in my ear. He kissed below my ear and placed small kisses in a trail down my neck and up my jaw. I couldn't help but smile at the sweet gesture.

I pressed my lips to his and laid my head of his shoulder. I nuzzled into the crook of his neck. I felt his arms tighten around my frame. It was moments like there that I lived for. Moments like these that I was going to look back on while Nick was on tour. And moments that I would be waiting for when he returned.

"I love you." I whispered to him.

"I love you too." He replied and kissed my head.
