Becky's POV:
Slumping down on my bed, I can feel the tears start to form in my eyes. It has only been a few weeks of living around Austin, and only a day of us being together, but I know I'm going to miss him. Moving to New York was not my intention, but it is something I have to do. I need to have music in my life.

Austin's POV: Yesterday was a really good day. I'm glad we spent some time with each other. And that kiss.. It was perfect. I decide to text Becky.

Becky only reads my text. She doesn't reply. Is something wrong? Hm, maybe she's just too tired to text.

I frown at the screen. Something's wrong. Did I do something?

Sent; 7:55 a.m.

No, Austin. I'm ok.

I get in my own car and drive, as Becky walks.

In the pouring rain.

Becky's POV: I arrive at school and it seems like Austin is just sitting on the grass with his friends. He kinda looks.. Sad. Just like me.

"Hi Becky." He waves dreadfully.

"Hey." I try to smile.

"Is there something you're not telling me?" He pushes his eyebrows together.

"No, why would I hide something from you Austin?" I lie. Guilt washes over my heart like the stabbing knives I felt when Camila kissed Austin.

"Good, 'cause I'll always want you on my side." He smiles, but there's something behind his eyes I can't read.

I touch his hand and excuse myself to go see Camila.

"Oh hey, honey. Didn't see you there," Camila says rather unenthusiastically.

"Hi, Camila. I just wanted to say that I'm sorry. I know it must be hard for you that I just butted in and stole Austin. I don't deserve-"

"Oh baby girl, you definitely don't deserve him." She pulls me closer. "I know your secret, honey. I know you're lying to my Austin. Don't you dare hurt him because I love him. You hear me? I love him more than you think I do."

Running with my backpack bouncing against my legs, I arrive home to my parents.

Time to leave. Time to say goodbye.

Austin's POV: I run out of the cafeteria after Becky's high tops, following her path of running. I lose her in the crowd somewhere. It seems like the girl I love is already slipping away from me.

Becky's POV: I know it's my dream to go to this Art's school in New York. Music is my everything. I have to do this.

*one hour later*

"Becky, we have to go now. You get this luggage." My mom brings me over to the car.

"Alright, I'm all excited!" My dad laughs.
