Chapter 28

Saweetie

As I look at my acceptance letters from USC and LSU, I don't know what to do. I want to go to LSU and support my baby while she's literally living out part of her dream. I could get my degree and we can grow together in our relationship. At the same time what if this is the time we grow together in different places? Breaking up isn't really an option because neither of us want that

"Hey honey what are you doin" my mom asks comin into my room

"Just thinkin about college" I say

"Mhm thinking about college or y/n" she asks and damn isn't that apart of the college experience. Like that's my nigga mama

"Both I guess. I just don't want to go to LSU and shit doesn't work out and it's a bad decision for me personally. She'll have football but like it's just school for me. At the same time if I stay here and she goes there. That's literally so far away from each other on top of the different time zones" I say

"Have you talked to y/n about it" she asks

"Yeah and she supports whatever I do. I know she wants me to follow her and go to LSU deep down though" I say

"Ok and what do you wanna do? Deep down regardless of all the factors what does your heart say" she asks

"To go to LSU but I can't just not put her in the decision. I mean I love her and she is apart of my heart. I know we're young and all that but I don't want anybody else. Lots of people stay with their high school sweetheart" I say

"Then do it, go for it, you won't know until you take the jump. That Savannah and LeBron love is what y'all say. It's not easy but if that's what you both want, it can work. I'm not going to discourage you" she says and I chuckle at our little mantra we have for our relationship. She's always loved the relationship they have and actually sees us doing it just like them. I sure wouldn't mind living like Savannah

"What does daddy think" I ask just curious and she groans

"Girl he too worried about you leaving period let alone where. He's going to be a mess but we just want you to make the decision for you. If you think that's going to LSU then go for it. You wouldn't have gotten accepted if you couldn't do it" she says and I nod my head

"I just don't want to get there and it all goes bad" I say

"Are you going for you or y/n? Because if you're going for you then regardless of the relationship you will be ok. Y'all are children, about to be young adults, and it will be difficult. You're trying to figure out who you are as people, trying to have your life, be in her life, and school. If you truly believe this is what you want and who you want, you just have to do it. No matter where you go y'all's relationship ain't gon be perfect" she says

"Ok you're right" I say

"I know that" she says flipping her hair

"Ok let me get ready to go. She gon be here in a minute and she be mad when I don't be ready" I say

"What y'all doin again" she asks

"She needs to get a haircut and then we gettin our nails and feet done" I say

"Ok I'll let you get to it" she says and I take a quick shower before putting some clothes on

"Girl come on" she says from downstairs and see I told y'all she be on one

"It be worse when we tryna go somewhere as a family. Them two be up there holdin us up" my dad says

"Like we goin to the met gala or sum. Put some clothes on and let's go" she says
