*Teals POV*

"You. Come." I turned my head to the back of the room where Isabella had pointed. I didnt wear my contacts today so I couldnt see what everyone was gasping about. But once the girl got closer to me, I realized who she was.

Eli.

She talked to Isabella and I was unsure it was her. maybe it was just a coincidence. But then she sang, and music filled my ears. Not just any music, her voice. I hadnt heard her since the show and to hear her and see her again made me feel so at home. I thought I saw her at Starbucks with Robert this morning but I second guess myself. I missed home a lot so I thought she just looked like her. The tabloids said she gave up on her music because of Austin and Austin hasnt been heard from in a week. So I let it go. But hearing her voice, I know its her.

The melodic voice that never cracks a note unless its a song that reminds her of Lucy or her father. Her voice was stronger than ever as she sang the Celine Dion song. She hasnt sung like that since her audition when her life was going just right. None of us girls talked to her because we didnt know how hard she took the breakup, along with what Stacy had told her in the letter, Stacy's death, not winning the competition, physical therapy, and being veledictorian. No joke, we ll missed her. She was our glue. Other than Stacy, she is the only one who told us what she thought straight up. She didnt think about your feelings until you were sad. She wouldnt lie when you looked bad or anything. She was the best person ever. And I just wish we wouldve kept in touch.

She got done singing and Isabella talked to her. I just focused on how Im going to approach her. Maybe she still doesnt remember me. That would be awkward.

The bell rang and I packed all my things to catch up with Eli who was already next to the door.

'Okay Teal, slow and subtle. Calm and gentle. Dont yell just ease in- OH FORGET IT.'

"ELI!!!!!" Very Subtle.

She turned around and tried to find where the voice came from so I waved at her and a grin instantly grew on her face. "TEAL!!!!!" We ran towards each other.

But what was supposed to be a perfect moment turned in to pain when we budded heads and fall flat on our asses. We groaned in pain but laughed at each other because of course we mrss up the perfect moment by falling cause were the clumsiest people on Earth.

"Well, since we have free period right now, can we talk a while?" I asked.

"Duh, but I was about to meet up with Austin. You can invite that guy Robert!"

Wait whoa, what..?

"AUSTIN!?!?!?!?! YOUR TELLUNG ME THE CUTEST COUPLE EVER WHO HAD A BREAKUP THAT TRENDED ON TWITTER FOR THREE MONTHS STRAIGHT IS BACK TOGETHER?!?! SINCE WHEN!?! And oh yeah Ill bring Robert." I winked at her and got up.

I dusted myself off and helped her up. Once we were both up, we bent down to pick up or bags that we dropped. "Ill tell you while we walk, this way." She smiled at me and we locked arms. "Well, I got her and found out my room mate was HIM. He basically spilled his heart out and we were going to just stay friends but then he gave me this." She showed me her pinky and I saw an infinity ring and I knew EXACTLY what it was. Austin showed me it asking when and if he should give it to me. "But either way, Iaccpeted it and we havent been happier. No cameras, no show, no secrets, just us. No one to run our relationship. And I really do love him. SO were rooming together and we are together. We even made a couple duets that were gonna put on Twitter when we announce our relationship in a week."

"You guys are the best couple ever." My eyes were tearing up.

"Well not just us, but you and Robert seemed crazy about each other in Starbucks this morning!! Deets, please." She asked.

"I was skyping with one of Austins friends Alex and Robert was there. We hit it off RIGHT away. We tweeted each other back and forth and then we shared numbers and we hung out a bunch of times and bam. We found out we liked each other and he asked me out after our Trick or Treat date. Since then, we got accepted to the same college and my mom knows the head of jobs or something here so she promised me and Roberto a job if we promised to not kiss on the job. So now we have the best time being the couple evryone wants." I winked at her but then added. "But now, you and Austin are. So eff you." We both laughed as we reached her dorm.

She opened the door and walked in first. "Babe! Look who I found?"

Austin looked at her, "Wait till you see who I found!"

I walked in and saw Robert sitting on Austins bed. "BABE!!!" me and him said at the same time.

"Wait, what?" Austin said.

"Oh see me and Teal are dating. Itll be a week next week." He came to where I was and kissed me on the cheek.

"Yep, and now that me and you have caught up Austin, we gotta go. Im taking my gril on a lunch date since she worked all morning with me, thought it wasnt her shift." He winked at me and grabbed my hand. I gave Eli and Austin a hug and Robert did the same.

"Bye guys, BE SAFE. You know what I mean." I winked at them and before they could prtest me and Robert shut the door laughing.

"So where are we going?" I asked him.

"I have a secret place Im about to show you. While you were in class, I wandered around the school a little and came across this abandoned beautiful meadow. Its has a the perfect spot for me and you to go when we need to think or anything and the trees make a heart shape. The flowers look beeautiful. White cherry blossom trees. Its just beautiful."

"Cant wait." I smiled up at him and kissed him on the lips.

We walked for a while but i didnt count the time because it could be a year and it would feel like an hour while I am lost in his eyes. We came upon the most beautiful scenery I had ever seen. It was a meadow as he had described but it had a tiny bridge over a crystal clear lake under the bridge. Like the one next to Eli and Austins dorm.

We sat under the tree talking about almost everything.

"Before we leave, I wanna do something." He got something out of his pocket and marked something in the tree. I took a closer look when he was done.

'RV + JT .. 10.31.12<3'

"Babe, I havent told you this yet, but I want to. And I thought this would be the best moment.."

I had no clue what he was about to tell me but I didnt have any doubts either.

"I love you."

My eyes grew wide and before I let anything out of my mouth I jumped on him and kissed him. He fell to the ground with me still kissing him. I wrapped his fingers around mine and didnt feel hesitiation as I said these next words.

"I love you."

Before we left, we took a picture with our tree carving and I posted it on twitter with the caption 'I love you' I didnt even care about the death threats because..

I love him. And no person can ever change that.
