A/N: this song has no relation to the chapter but I just wanted to share with y'all what's on my current playlist on repeat<3

Koleen's POV:

As I got ready for the day, I couldn't help but reminisce the night before with Jaxon.

The night went surprisingly well, he took me ice skating and on a walk to see all the Christmas lights displayed.
We got hot chocolate, ate some cookies, it was when he took me home that I couldn't get him out of my head.
"So did you enjoy the night?" He asks me as he pulls over in my house.

"I did." I smile at him, then turned to open the door.

"Hold on. Let me walk you out."
Before I could protest he gets out, and opens the door for me.

"You didn't have to." I tell him.

"I just wanted to talk to you more. I hope I was successful in making you forget today."

Even though I felt comforted by Jaxon, at the end of the day it was still Bryson.

"I had a great time today. Thank you." I only say, then dig for my key to open the door.

"I did too. And I mean it." He says and pushed my head up with his finger.

I froze, and stared into his eyes.

He leans in, and whispers into my ear. "Have a good night Koleen." Then walks back to his car.

I blink trying to seem unfazed and found my keys, before I went in , I waved to him goodbye.

He smiles and waves back.

I didn't think I had any lingering feelings for him, I'll admit I did kind of liked him before.
But that was before I got into a relationship with Bryson.
And now it just felt like it wasn't real.

Maybe he was taking advantage of my broken heart to get closer to me.

Yes that  was probably it, afterall Jaxon was quite the playboy.

"Honey are you almost ready?" My mom asks peeking into my room.

"Yes, I just need to put on some pants." I tell her.

"Well lets get going, the tour will start in an hour. We'll get something to eat on the way there."

"Okay." She closes the door, and I put on some pants.

I looked into the mirror, and couldn't help but feel nervous.

I was going to visit the university my mom went into today , I was excited but at the same time terrified.

I was going to meet so many new people.

My mom said the university was pretty diverse, that I'd meet so many people.
It had a good medical education, but if I wasn't interested there was also other good programs.

I always dreamt of going to college already when I was younger, I just wanted to go to a different school with different people, to finally feel like I fit in somewhere.
