PROM 🪩

It was less than a week before prom, Amber and Rachel are on the edge of their seats, and of course it was to be expected that they would obviously go with Zack and Carter, and not that I was right it seems that Jay wasn't the only one to invite me to the prom isn't it and I still think he gave a little push for his friends to go, everything was perfect, but when you least expect it, the worst has to happen, starting with the fact that days had already passed, we were about to to graduate us with the exception of one thing, Rachel, she was the only one who so far hadn't even given a hint about her letter of admission, which didn't make much sense since we'd all submitted applications together, and Rachel clearly didn't want to tell us something, that's when Amber and I decided to do an intervention,it was the only way for Rachel to explain to us everything that was going on, that's when we found out, about a truth that completely shocked us.
– PEOPLE TO!!!–I'm sorry, I didn't mean to shout...
"Rachel, did something happen?" –
– Look Rachel, I know that Nate and I are not the best listeners... –
- Well, mostly me, but we're friends -
- Yeah, we'll help you, but you need to talk to us -
"I didn't get into UCLA guys," Rachel had told us with her eyes full of tears.
- What? But that must be wrong you are the best student, how could they... -
– No, I didn't sign up guys –
– But we had agreed, we were going together, I thought that... –
- PEOPLE! The company where my father works is going to open a new international firm –
– They're transferring him to London, that's what I was trying to tell –
– I won a scholarship to study at Royal Holloway –
– Rachel, are you moving to London? –
"I was going to tell you after Homecoming and before graduation—"
That news really surprised us, we couldn't believe that our best friend was going to move to the other side of the world, Amber had been devastated and even tried to convince Rachel to stay in Los Angeles, but I knew what was right to do, even if it cost one of our best friends
- Amber stop! Rachel's right, it's not her fault she had to move –
"Look Rachel, we've been together so long-"
- That you can't even imagine one of us this far away -
– But it doesn't matter, friends support each other –
"And we'll remain friends no matter what happens."
– Even though you are 8,750km from us, come here – Amber and I hugged Rachel, knowing that this wasn't our last moment together, it was going to be a big change for all of us, but Rachel was moving on, I think it was going to It was going to be harder for me and Amber, but given time, we were going to try to deal with it as best we could.
"Rachel and how Carter reacted to all of this," Amber exclaimed, and Rachel just completely freaked out.
"Rachel, you told Carter, didn't you?" –
- Okay I haven't told him yet guys, he's going to be devastated -

– Please promise not to tell him or Jay or Zack –
- I'll tell Carter when the time is right -
"Okay, but... it's going to be a shock when he finds out-"
- Yeah I know, but look for now we can just focus on the ball, please - - I don't want to talk about this matter for now -
– Okay. – Amber? - It's cool I promise -
– Thanks guys – It was really ecstatic, but Rachel didn't want her to talk about it too much, which was pretty difficult considering the circumstances. We focused on just focusing on the prom, which regularly turned out to be good for us to get a little distracted.
I was totally exhausted, when I got back home all I could think about
was that I still have 4 more days of school to go before I finally say goodbye to high school, I found myself thinking of all the times the girls and I had spent together, now that our trio will become more of a duo, it was all so sudden, it's
as if all the last two years had passed before my eyes, at that moment I just looked at the necklace that Amber gave me for my birthday, those words from necklace had never made so much sense, somehow we were always going to
be friends no matter what, and the photo album kind of made sense too, I
think Rachel wants us to remember all the things we had done together, like
the night halloween that had been pretty exciting,and my birthday party which was also quite out of the ordinary after all, all of a sudden Belle had climbed
into my bed and for a second she even made me feel a little better, my mum walked past my bedroom door and didn't see it very happy which had certainly caught her attention.
– Nate, dear, is there a problem –
– Oh, hey mom, it's nothing, I just have a full head –
- Some problem? With Jay, the prom –
- I don't really feel like talking about it right now -
– I understand..., but hey, you can't keep your problems locked away forever –
"Sometimes you're going to have to talk to someone about them."
- Mother wait... you're right, it's just that I can't talk about this subject with anyone -
– Rachel's family is moving, she told us today –
– And I'm happy for her, but why do I feel like this doesn't feel right? –
"Maybe it's because you and Amber didn't want her to leave—"
- I've been through this before and I know it's not easy -
- You mean with daddy? – No, it wasn't your father –
– Although he gave me the most important things in my life like you for example – "At least you're still here." My mother looked a little sorry, and I was a little worried for a moment, until she started talking about Paige and Luna.
- I went through this with your sisters, and it wasn't easy to let them go -
– That's why I didn't approve of Jay before, I was afraid the same thing would happen to his sisters – "But that was until I realized I couldn't interfere with what made you happy—"
– And even though I misjudged him before, he also helped take care of me –
- And I could see he's a good guy -
– Mom, I know you expect me, Luna or Paige to always be here –
- But now I'm going to college -
- And Luna and Paige would have done the same if you hadn't married -
"The point is, we'll always love you."
– You're right dear... and I'll always love you too – After that moment, my wife and I just hugged each other and we knew everything was going to be okay.
