~Hunter's P.o.v.~

As she left, my heart went with her. We've been together for over three and a half years now, but have known each other as kids. And I didn't think it would ever come to this.

I stood at the doorstep for what seemed like forever as I watched her walk away until I could no longer see her.

I quickly called my dad telling him the whole situation, and I explained to him that I wanted to move to London with Nikki after graduation. He said we'll talk about it.

I never thought I was gonna fall that hard for one person. She was my everything, and now I'm losing her. My world was officially wreaked knowing she was not apart of it.

For me, usually I could only hold a girlfriend for about two months, but Nikki, she was different. I know that's why we had been together for almost four years now.
I swore I was gonna marry her after graduation. But now, all I could see was the loss of something I couldn't live without.

***(3 weeks later)***

Ever since we broke up it's been hard for us to talk to each other. We are in all the same classes and we usually always sit at the same table for lunch, but it's hard.
We are still best friends, but with the situation, it's a little awkward.

Graduation is next week and then Nikki moves with her Dad, and younger sister Bella two weeks later. I couldn't bear to see her go, to leave and probably never come back.

Maybe if we talked this over.... No... My thoughts kept pounding in my head. I didn't even realize that a situation like this could do so much damage.

We had study hall for last period, so I sat in the library, homework done in the first study hall, wishing I had the power to change what was about to happen.

***********At Dinner**********

"Hunter, can we talk?" My father asked as he entered the room for dinner. "Yea, I guess." I said sighing.

"Son," my dad started,"I know you want to be with your girlfriend when she moves to London. But, however, think about college. How will you be able to attend college and become successful in your career field if you can't attend college?"

"Dad, first, I can apply for colleges in London. And second, Nikki and I aren't together anymore." I stayed as I pushed my peas around my barely eaten plate.

"What about a job? Son, where will you live? Hunter you really need to plan these things out. You can't just jump into a situation like this without a plan."

"Dad, I'll figure it out. Why can't you just trust me?" I questioned angrily raising my voice. "Hunter, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just," my Father paused to take a deep breath. "I've made my decison. You're staying here. And that's the end of it. Now, if you want to visit her after you have the money and are on break during college, fine. But as of right now, you're not going."

"Damn it!" I yelled pushing back from the table. "Why can't you understand how important this is to me?! You never really listen Dad. All you do is make all my decisions for me. Well I think it's time I made some of my own!"

With that, I ran out the front door. I was tired of my father making all the important decisions for me. I am eighteen years old, and it's time I made something of my life. So I ran and ran, following my feet where they took me. Not realizing it was all the way to Nikki s backdoor.

~Nikki' s Pov~

It was about 8:30 p.m. and I heard a tap on my balcony window. I got up from my desk covered with homework to see what it was. I opened the door to find something I would've guessed.... Hunter standing there, eyes red from fresh tears. "Hunter what are you doing? I mean hey." As I looked towards the floor. My eyes started to tear up at the sight of him. Oh how I've missed my best friend! He stepped closer to me and wrapped me in his arms. I could smell the cologne he always wore... the one that brought me to my knees every time.
"Baby," he started as he stepped back and put his hands on my cheeks, lifting my face so our eyes met. "I can't come with you to London. My father won't let me. But as soon as the time is right, I'll visit you. Nikki, I can't live with you so far away. I miss you baby girl. I miss you so much! Can we please just try this? Can we please stay together and still be together even when you're in London?"
