I looked out the window as Sam drove us to where ever we were having a picnic.
"So, have you guys started looking at colleges?" Miguel asked looking back at me.

"I'm thinking about Stanford," I nodded watching as we drove past the beach. Watching the waves crash onto the sand.

"I'm considering Yale," Sam nodded as she slowed down to turn up the hill to more of the rock cliffs on the beaches.

"That's Demetri's dream school," I hummed as I watched the trees pass.

"What about you?" Sam glanced at Miguel.

"I'm not really sure yet, I kind of want to stay here and think about being a Sensei at Miyagi-Do." He explained.

"That could be a plan," I nodded as Sam parked and we got out. She opened the trunk, I grabbed the flannel blanket out. Miguel grabbed the basket, this was beyond cliche.
We walked out to a point and Sam helped me spread out the blanket. I sat down and checked my phone to see if Demetris mom had any updates. I set it back down and looked out at the view.
Sam started taking out the the food she packed.

"I packed pasta salad for Miguel," he handed the Tupperware to him.

"I made nachos for you," she handed me the container.

"Thanks Sam," I smiled and opened the Tupperware.

"Yeah of course," she smiled taking out her food. Nachos were also Demetris favorite snack and thing for us to share.
Every Tuesday after school we would walk down to the local authentic Mexican restaurant. We would always get them with extra cheese.
Well that was before I ruined me and Demetri's friendship.

"What are you thinking about?" Miguel asked looking at me.

"Nothin," I lied and picked up a chip. I was truly starting to think they would rather me stay quiet than talk about Demetri.

"Alright," he nods and takes a bite of the pasta salad.

"When are you gonna go back to the hawk?" Sam asked.

"I don't know, when I'm not having to be worried all the time. Scared that the love of my life isn't gonna die at any second." I shrugged looking down.

"Oh," she frowned.

"Yeah," I nodded and looked back out at the sea. I needed to breathe and just take a break from my thoughts. I laid down and stared up at the sky. Running my hand through my hair.
