Can ya'll tell I'm running out of gifs?

Max groaned as Mike took her bag. "Mike! I can do it myself! And stop crying, I'm gonna see you in a couple months anyway!"
Mike sniffled, wiping his eyes. "I know, I'm just gonna miss you!"
"Chill, I'll see you soon okay? I'll call every morning and every night." She smiled at him as she moved his hair to one side. The taller boy smiled sadly at her as they walked out to El's car, putting her bags in it. Both siblings looked at the for sale sign in Billy's yard. It, technically, was Max's property until she was of age and decided what she wanted to do with it. Now that she was 18, she wanted to sell the place. Mike kissed the top of his sister's head, having to crouch a little to reach her. "He would've been so proud of you, Max."
She smiled sadly at her brother, "Yeah. He would've." El beeped the horn accidentally. She rolled down the window chuckling, "I didn't mean to do that! Now hurry up, we have to go Max!"
The ginger looked at her girlfriend smiling, "I'll see you in two months."
"Two months."
Max stared at him as tears pooled in her eyes. She watched tears fill up his chocolate eyes, spill over, then roll silently down his rosy cheeks. She sobbed, pulling him into a tight hug. She got on her tip toes as she wrapped her arms around his neck, hugging him tightly. Mike wrapped his arms around her waist, not wanting to let go of his sister. The two pulled away, chuckled sadly as they saw each others tear stained cheeks.
"Who's the one that needs to chill now?"
"Max! Come on honey, we have to get going!"
"I'll see you in two months ya big oaf," she said punching his arm playfully. Max planted a soft kiss to his cheek. She hoped into the car, turning up the music.

2 months later
Will ran up to her, hugging her tightly. "MAX!"
"WILL!"
"I missed you!"
"You guys are adorable, it's only been two months!"
"That's way too long!"
El came up to the two, wrapping her arms around Max's waist and hugging her from behind. "Hi Will!"
"El! Second year of college, you excited?"
"As excited as I can be, let me show you guys to your dorms."
***
El gave them a tour of the college, with the help of Robin and Steve. Nancy and Jonathan were at the library reading to the children. "And these are the boys dormitories! Mike and Will have one room and Dustin and Lucas have the other! Put your stuff inside and let's go get you signed up for classes."
Max and El held hands the whole time while she signed up for classes. After all that was said and done, the group decided to explore NYC. They walked for hours and hours until they decided it was time to held back. Max shivered as the cold passed through. El had told her to bring a jacket, but being the stubborn girl she was, decided to not listen to her. El noticed that she was cold and rolled her eyes as she wrapped her jacket around the shaking girl. Max looked up, love full in her eyes. El smiled, hold her girlfriends hand.
The two made it to El's dorm. El turned to face her girlfriend, leaning against the wall and holding her waist. "I'll see you tomorrow."
Max whined, "that's too long!"
"It's gonna be okay. If you sleep faster, yo-"
She was cut off by the door opening. A ginger haired girl walked out. Her hair just reached to her shoulders. She had sparkling blue eyes and a beautiful night gown. "Oh El! I got worried, you're late!"
Max became confused. Who was this random girl speaking to her girlfriend? El smiled at the pretty girl causing Max's heart to shatter. How come El had never told her about the new redhead in her life? Was she cheating? Max wanted answers, and she wanted them now.
