"what do you think about moving out of london?" kit asks bella as they're still in their hotel in los angeles, looking at flats in london.

"to where?"

"like, completely not in the uk. somewhere in the states."

"oh, wow," she says. "um, i'm not sure. that's a huge change."

"i know. it's just an idea. i only bring it up because i feel like we're here a lot for work things, so it would be more convenient," kit explains. "besides, aren't most of your friends here anyways?"

"yeah, but i also have people in london like joe. i don't want to be so far from him."

"he just got a job in the states for a while, though. he's going to be busy working here too. i'm not saying that we have to move here, but i just think it's more logical."

"yeah, you're probably right," she murmurs. "okay, fine. pull up some places here. i'm going to use the bathroom, i'll be right back." bella gets out of the bed and heads to the bathroom, shutting the door behind her. she pulls out her phone, messaging joe.

to: joe
> how mad would you be if me and kit started looking at places to live in la?

from: joe
> it makes sense but you would be so far from me😭😭😭😭

to: joe
> i know :( but yeah i think it would be a lot more convenient especially for jobs and stuff. i also have been wanting to go to school there so it would work out really well.

from: joe
> i know. i hate to see u go tho.

bella exits the bathroom, slipping her phone in her pocket as she climbs back into bed. "you know i mentioned going to college, right? there are some schools in la that i wanted to look at. that would also be good."

"oh! yeah, of course. i kind of forgot you mentioned you wanted to go back to school. wouldn't that make it harder to work, though?" he asks.

"i don't think i'd go full time. just take one or two classes. i want to take a music class and maybe a writing one."

"that still means less time with you," kit whines, pulling bella closer to him.

"we'll literally be living together!" she giggles, wrapping her arms around his waist.

"i know, i know," he mutters. "guess i can't be upset about you being smart and wanting an education. but anyways, it was just a thought. we don't have to make any big decisions about it now."
