Livy Marie came crashing down from cloud nine when Tyyler begin to phone stalk her ass. The worse part was that he kept leaving voicemail messages while crying. Literally crying and begging for an explanation. He sounded like a bitch and she couldn't even be bothered with him. She knew that she should text him back or something but she needed to delete all their most recent activity together from social media first.

After dinner with her family, she spent over a hour deleting everything that occurred between them lately. She then blocked his number since he wouldn't stop contacting her. Since Tyyler unknowingly helped her get Judd back, Livy Marie decided to be nice and write him a goodbye email.

Tyyler,
When you came down, I was on a break with my boyfriend. I honestly thought I was over him and I really did want to see if we could make it work again. I fully enjoyed our time together but my heart belongs to my boyfriend. I love him and want to remain with him. Sorry if you feel like I played you but I'm sure that you will find someone who loves you just as much as you love them. Sadly, I'm not that person. Have a great life!
Livy Marie

After sending the email, she closed her laptop and texted Judd. He replied back quickly with heart emojis. He texted that he missed her and that they would definitely go out when he returned back home from work. Livy Marie honesty felt that Judd was true with his intentions and valued their relationship. He loved her just as much as she loved him. She was happy that she gave him another chance and really wasn't worried about anything else. After what happened between them, she trusted that Judd would never hurt her again.

Over the next few weeks, everything was great. Surprisingly, Judd never mentioned anything about his truck. He seemed to not realize that he was horribly pranked and Livy Marie wasn't about to tell his ass. She didn't even feel bad and she definitely didn't feel guilty enough to confess. Judd posted pictures on social media about getting his truck rekeyed and repainted while she just laughed knowing that paint would never stick on his truck again. 

Livy Marie also loved that when Judd wasn't working on the oil rig or visiting his mom, he was with her. He took her out on real dates in town and they even went to the local pub to watch some preseason football games. Since their teams were competitive rivals, the loser had to buy all the beers. Livy Marie laughed as Judd acted like a sore loser at the end of the night. They continued to share more about each other's life and made some great memories together.

They realized that their futures really did match up and Livy Marie dropped hints about him eventually moving to Dallas. She loved Judd and wanted nothing more than for their relationship to be in her future but school was also important. Regardless of Judd, she was going back to college in the fall to complete her last year. She would obtain her degree and start her internship. Having his love was great in order for her to achieve personal success but her career of being an Architect was to fulfill her professional success. She could have either both or one but school wouldn't be the option that she didn't choose.

Her own parents were high school sweethearts that never pursued a college education after graduation. They chose small town love and the family business over going off to college. Both her parents later received degrees through online college when she was growing up but she didn't want to do that. She was able, willing, and in a great place to obtain her degree. If Judd couldn't wait for her then he wasn't the one. Livy Marie was nervous to tell Judd that but to her surprise, he agreed that school was highly important and encouraged her to finish. He assured her that he would never stand in the way of her professional goals and she couldn't help but to fall more in love with him. It was now official, within a year, The Engineer & The Architect would be making major moves.
