Gah! So sorry ImNotCrazyImAFangirl!!!

Here it is though.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

I stared pointedly at my feet, counting my steps. One, two, three, fourish, five-

Six being cut off by the sudden collision of my bowed head meeting my brothers back. "Owwwww-Ky- whatch where your going-" he cuts me off with a small laugh, turning to pull me into a rough hug.

"Aria, we both know who wasn't watching where they were going." He murmured into my hair, a sad tone to his voice.

I smiled sheepishly, the small curve of my lips hidden by his shoulder as I buried my face in it, wrapping my own arms around him.

"Now I know you didn't notice but we are here now."

"Are we?" I said softly, not really ready to let go. I could practically sense the small grin that would be playing with his lips at my words.

"Yup. And you better watch out now, wouldn't want you getting hit by a plane now."

That was enough for me to pull out of his hold, I smacked his arms rolling my eyes. "Not happin. How is that even possible?"

"You'd manage." He teased, settling a hand on my lower back to guide me from our last secluded corner out into the open where the rows of faces turned to look my way. Feeling suddenly self conscious I tugged at the hem of my mothers dress, wishing I just had my work pants on instead.

I'd change later hopefully, I had packed them. Maybe they'd let me wear the?

"Aria-Aria!" Ky's voice broke through my thoughts as he grabbed my wrist.

"Yah?" He sighed, shaking his head.

"Just you know, same old same old. You almost pitched head first down a set of stairs into all of your new fans. Wouldn't that have been special? They could've said you'd fallen for someone already." He smirked, "Oh well, sorry Prince, Aria's heart's been stolen early it seems. The lovely staircase has her head over heals-"

"Kyler!" I smacked him again and he pretended it hurt. "Stoooooop. Ehhhhhhhh."

"Fine." He said, his voice soft with a sad smile. "I'm suppose to stop here anyways. Good luck Aria." He leaned down, kissing my forehead gently, "Now don't go falling for anyone. I don't care who they are." He said lightly with a smile, eyes shining. "I already told the stairs they could have you."

I shook my head with a small sigh leaning up on my toes to peck his cheek swiftly, "The stairs can't have me. I'm afraid I've been taken by the stars." I informed my brother, giving him a quick hug. I closed my eyes, resting my head on his shoulder for a second, my laughing tone gone as I spoke once more. "I'll miss you Ky."

I felt his strong grip loop around me briefly before pulling away setting me on my feet, "And I you Ria. But hey, it's not forever is it? I'll see you again. And I'm sure you'll have plenty of things to tell me too. I wanna here all about it, tell me if your trees dance there, or maybe the stars don't wink the same way."

I smiled sadly, catching his hand to give it one last squeeze before I steeped out into the isle set out for me. I looked back over at my shoulder, thinking about what he said. "Deal." I called out before facing my next new challenge. I strode past the people, offering a simple grin, my small little mask. My free hand fluttering in a bit of a wave once in a while, the other tugging the luggage tote I'd been given.

With one last look behind me I boarded the plane.

The last I saw of my province being an old worn, familiar hat waving me off in the distance.
