Billie's POV
"what makes you run?" i questioned.

"in the moment it seems like a better solution than getting hurt in the long run."

i could tell the conversation was making her nervous so i changed the topic, "wanna swim?" i asked and immediately dove into the pool.

"are you crazy?" she laughed.

"just a little," i giggled as i pushed my black hair out of my view.

"come on it'll be fun," i said as i swam toward the ledge, "but before you do could you text claudia to bring some towels."

as she pulled out her phone she smirked, "you're lucky i came prepared."

emery dove into the pool after revealing a black bikini under her clothing.

"was this your plan all along?" i joked.

"what you thought i couldn't pull it off?" she teased back.

"are you referring to the bathing suit or? cause you could pull off anything," i flirted.

she slightly pushed me back, "you know what i was referring to dummy," she smiled.

"you guys are too cute," claudia said as she placed the towels on a chair for us.

"thank you claud, love youuu," i replied.

"don't mention it, just don't stay out to late the temperature is supposed to drop."

"we won't," em replied.

Emery's POV
the next morning i woke up cuddled up next to billie, her head was buried in my chest and she clung onto my waist.

i called her name a few times in hopes of waking her but i had no luck.

i even tried getting up but her grip tightened. to my luck, claudia came to get us for breakfast and woke bil up for me.

"shit, my bad, i didn't mean to like restrict your movement," she laughed.

"you're good, it was kinda cute how cuddly you are. you don't give off those vibes at all."

"is that a compliment?" she questioned.

i laughed, " i just think it's funny that you're a big softie that's all."

"i'll take it," she replied.

the rest of the day billie and i spent catching up on the past 3 months we didn't talk.

we sat together in the hammock that hung in her backyard. the sun lit her face up perfectly. her freckles perfectly sprinkled across her face.

i noticed how her right dimple sunk deeper into her cheek and immediately altered my drawing to fit her beaming smile.

"are you almost done?" she whined.

i disregarded her question as this was only the third time she'd asked it, "guess what?"

"you're finished?" she said as her eyes lit up and she tried to peer over at my sketchbook.

"nope, but better"

"what?"

"i got accepted into berkeley. uc berkeley, which means i'm moving here now."

"you're fucking with me right?" bil said.

"i swear," i smiled.

"no way, no way you're serious," billie as she got down from the hammock and wrapped me in a hug.

"that's so good, i didn't even know you applied," billie said, still a with a smile on her face.

"which means claudia must be very good at keeping secrets," i laughed as billie and i walked inside her parents house together.

"hi girls," maggie smiled as she walked into the kitchen with reusable bags filled with groceries.

"hi mrs. o'connell, would you like a hand?" i offered at the sight of bags piled up on the front porch.

"that would be lovely honey," she smiled, "oh and please, call me maggie," she replied, softly patting my back.

after about 30 minutes of helping maggie bring the groceries in and organize them in the refrigerator, billie and i went up to her room and cuddled.
