Just one more exam. One more and in a week I get to know if I got accepted in the college me and Edward decided. I've applied for two though. I've applied for both The University of Manchester and Cardiff University in Wales. 

If I get into The University of Manchester I get to be with Edward right throughout college and well, whatever we decide after that. However if I don't, it's not so bad either because I'll be able to study together with Mitchell which is also good. Plus, just because I don't get into the college that I've planned just because Edward will attend there too, isn't going to be the end of the world. Me and Edward are always going to be able to be together unless he has other plans. 

Today is the last day of finals and then, right after school, I'm going to make my plans happen. Meriliya Sanchez is sort of known for that. Making things happen even if situations don't go as they are planned. 

"Thank you" I grab my half used pen and start answering the first question. It's a two hour English paper and there better be two choices on the essay section. 

Thirty minutes later I had completed five questions. Fifteen more to go. 

Another thirty minutes and I'm halfway through with paper one. 

An hour later I finished the last question and I handed out the paper to the teacher and left the classroom for lunch break. 

Meet me there...during lunch break. 
Eddie.

When I came to the place he meant the stream. I walk slowly not wanting to draw his attention yet. 

"You wanted to see me?" I say softly now wanting to startle him. He turns around. 

"Yeah. I owe you an apology-"

"Stop with all the formal talking.." I interrupted and he chuckled at my statement. 

"I'm sorry baby for talking to you that way- I got mad and I'm sorry if I hurt you..." he says, getting closer to me with each word. "Why did you ignore me?" He whispers and I melt. 

"You didn't sit with me at lunch and wait-" I place my index finger on his lips. "And why were you sitting at Darcie's table?" I ask slowly. I probably would have sounded pathetic. He sighs, looking away from my stare. 

"Darcie needed someone okay and I know her...she had some issues going on and I was just trying to be there for her..." he explains, now looking at me but I don't make eye contact. 

"Oh. I um-"

"No, don't. Just keep your words to yourself." He interrupted rather rudely and I just stood there hurt to even continue what I was going to say and let him believe that I was about to ask about her while all I was trying to say was I'm sorry for whatever that happened with Darcie. So he thinks I'm one of those judgmental bitches? 

I turned around and just walked away because that was the only way I could get away from him so he wouldn't see his 'judgmental girlfriend' crying for something so small. 

When I reach the hallway in a rather rush I knock on someone absentmindedly. 

"Liya, where were you?" Mitchell looks worried and I let my tears flow down just like that, not being able to hold them in any longer. "What happened? Is it him?" I nodded, not being able to find the words to say anything. He just walked me to class and handed me a bottle of water. "Listen, just go through these three hours only focusing on your exam and nothing else and I promise we're going to my place." He says and I give him a small smile, thanking him. 

"Thanks, Mitch. You're the best" he nods and kisses my forehead and leaves the classroom.

"Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Mitch!" I start squealing and Mitchell comes running into the room.
