"I believe that's everything." Sophia commented as Yoongi and Presley set the last of the boxes on the living room floor. She then crossed the room to her youngest daughter and pulled her into a hug. "I'm going to miss seeing your beautiful face every day!"

"Knowing you, you'll probably try to facetime me every day, so you won't be missing anything." Presley retorted.

Presley was now 18 and a week away from starting her freshman year of college. She and Tom, who was stubborn and had stuck with Presley as her best friend even when her anxiety would get to her and try to push him away, had both applied to Henderson State University in Arkadelphia, an hour and a half away from Conway, which happened to be Tom's hometown. In preparation for the move to Arkadelphia, Tom's grandparents, who had been considering selling the cabin that Tom had practically grown up in from how often he was with his grandparents, had instead offered it as housing for them so they wouldn't have to bother with dorms, and the two 18 year olds had gladly accepted the offer.

Presley finally managed to pull out of her mother's hug and turned to her dad who had flopped onto the couch next to Adam, who was busy watching Criminal Minds on his iPad, having taken after their parents' obsession. "You're awfully quiet." She commented, playfully poking her dad's cheek as she perched herself on the arm of the couch next to him.

"I'm just still processing how my little bug's all grown up and moving out." Yoongi said, patting his daughter's thigh.

"I'm only gonna be an hour and a half away." Presley said. "And I'll still be coming up every weekend for family time."

"Until you go off to grad school and have to move somewhere on the ocean to see sharks in their natural habitat-"

Sophia playfully smacked Yoongi on the back of the head. "We agreed, no sad talk. Today's a happy day!"

Presley just smiled at her dad and slid onto his lap to hug him. "I'll facetime you every day when that happens." She promised, pressing a kiss to his cheek.

"You better, or I'll drive wherever you are with Grandpa Jin and let him lecture you about not staying in touch."

As they laughed over the threat, Tom burst through the front door with a box in his hands, his parents following behind. "Let's get this party started!"

From there, the two families spent the afternoon helping the two 18-year olds unpack and get their new home set up exactly how they liked...well how Presley liked it, Tom didn't dare argue with Presley when her obsessive-compulsive tendencies showed up. Once they had the cabin livable, the parents bid their children goodbye, Yoongi lingering to give Presley a few extra hugs before leaving.

"You want pizza for dinner?" Tom asked from where he sat on the couch, scrolling through Hulu for something to watch. "You know, before you get sick of Pizza Hut?"

Presley snorted as she made sure the large whiteboard Yoongi had gotten her so that she could have an easy, noticeable schedule to refer to in the home, was perfectly set up. "I'm offended that you think I'll get sick of pizza just because I'll start working there in a few days."

"Hey, it happens." Tom chimed as Presley flopped onto the couch next to him.

"There was a two-month period when I was four where I refused to eat anything but pepperoni pizza from Pizza Hut, and I still didn't get sick from it." Presley deadpanned. "Trust me, it's not gonna happen with me."

Tom hummed as he picked up his phone to open the Pizza Hut app. "I'm gonna put 'send your cutest driver' as the delivery instruction to give you a head start on the coworker romance."

"I can barely handle a friendship with you, do you honestly think I can handle an actual relationship." Presley rolled her eyes.

"You never know until you try." Presley mocked him as she swiped the remote from him, quickly searching for and choosing Jaws to watch. "No, every time we marathon these, you spend the entire time complaining about the inaccuracies!"

"Deal with it." Presley playfully stuck her tongue out at her best friend before playing the movie that she had a love hate relationship with.
