Almost Unbreakable

The next week went by fast, and soon I found myself standing at the door frame of Andy, and I's bedroom watching him pack. Tears were already coming out, as he zipped up the final pocket. He stood up, and looked at me. He still had an hour before he had to leave, and I was determined to make it count.

"Come on," He grabbed my hand, "Let's go relax for a bit."

"Okay." I said, chewing on my lip. He pulled me into the living room, and we sat on the couch. He laid down, and I laid on top of him. His hands were tight around my waist, and his lips rested against my forehead. I was so overwhelmed with the feeling of sadness, I started sobbing. "Andy.."

"Oh, babe, I'll be back before you know it okay?" He said, "We'll talk on the phone all day, everyday, and it'll feel like I'm still here."

"Alright." I nodded, still crying. He pulled me closer to him.

"Ella and Sammi are going to come get you when I leave. You'll be safe. I promise."

"What if Brett comes for me or something?" I shook my head, looking up at him.

"Then you call me immediately, and I will take the next flight home." He said, nuzzling his face in my neck.

"Okay." I sighed. "I'm going to miss you so much."

"Not as much as I'll miss you." He said, smiling softly.

"We were apart for four years, we can do it for three weeks." I chuckled.

"You bet we can." He smiled. I snuggled deeper into his chest, and the rest of that hour went by faster than I thought possible.

There was a knock on the door, and I immediately started sobbing again. "No." I breathed out, holding onto him.

"Oh god, Daisy." He cried out. "I don't know if I can do this."

I just shook my head, and clutched his shirt. Ashley, and CC walked into the apartment, and quieted when they saw us.

"You can." I sniffled, and pulled away. "We'll get through this."

"I love you." He said.

"I love you too." I smiled, and pressed my lips to his. He stood up, and grabbed his bag. I followed him, and hugged him one last time. He kissed my forehead.

"Be careful." He whispered.

"I will be. I'll see you soon." I said.

"Can't wait." He reached behind his neck, and unclasped the dog tags around his neck. He placed them around mine, "My promise to you. I'll be back soon."

"Thank you." I smiled. He kissed me again, and then left. I sank to my knees, crying, and I thought I heard him sobbing in the hallway, but it was too faint to know.

"I can't leave her!" I heard Andy scream.

"Andy, come on, you have to man." That was Ashley.

I felt sadness swell through me, as I heard Andy sobbing. My Andy, feeling so broken. I stood up, and ran out of the apartment.

Andy was on his knees, clutching his heart. Ashley, CC, and him looked up at me. I ran to his side, and wrapped my arms around him.

"Daisy.." He sobbed, and I held him closely to me, "Please come with me."

"I can't." I said, smoothing his hair. I tilted his chin up at me, "It's only for a little while, Andy, everything is going to be okay." His whole body shook, as I looked up at Ashley, and CC. They stared at us with sadness cloaking their eyes. "Andy, you have to go now."

He gasped, and nuzzled his face into my neck, "Please. What if you get hurt?"

"Andy, it's going to be okay. Ella, and Sammi will be here any minute." I said. He looked up at me, and pressed his lips to mine. His hand caressed my cheek, and then tangled in my hair. He pulled away, and rested his forehead against mine.

"Three weeks." He whispered.

"Three weeks." I repeated, "We can do it." I kissed his nose, and he picked up his bag. With one final look, they walked off, Andy still looking over his shoulder. I sniffled, and walked into the apartment. I brought my bags into the front room, and sat down on the couch, wrapped in one of Andy's sweatshirts.

It smelled like his musky cologne, cigarettes, and mint. His scent. Tears started flowing out of my eyes again, and I couldn't help but feel silly. We had only been back together for a few weeks, and this is how I feel? But he saved me, saved me from so much stuff I couldn't save myself from. I felt like something bad was going to happen without him here. I didn't feel complete.

There was a knock on the door, and I jumped up to answer it. Of course, it was Sammi and Ella.

"Hey Daisy." They smiled.

"Hey." I said, picking up my two bags.

"Ready?" Ella asked.

"As I'll ever be." I said, following them out.

I hopped into my car, and followed them over to their apartment. As I pulled out, I saw a big white truck pull out at the same time. I begin to get nervous as I saw a brown head in the front seat.
