"I can't tell him, I don't have the guts." You mumble as you pace back in forth in your room, running your hand through your hair. You were moving to California and you couldn't gather up the courage to tell Mark. You were both eight-teen years old and just finished High school a few months ago.

No breaks, no drama, just you and him being together. You didn't want to leave him but you had to get a proper job. You can't imagine leaving him, but you were hoping that he would go with you.

Your at home in bed watching YouTube when you hear a knock on the door. You texted Mark earlier to come over so you could talk to him. He hesitated at first because he 'thought you were gonna kill him' but he eventually said okay.

You sigh as you get up and open the door, there Mark was standing, smiling and obviously hiding something behind his back. You close the door slightly and hide behind the door.

"Don't go and try to stab me with that, I've got my eyes on you." He chuckles and shakes his head looking at the ground. He then pulls out a bouquet of red roses, "Happy 5 years Beautiful!"

You smile at him thoughtfully, you then remember you left his present in your room. You take the flowers and inspect them carefully.

"Are these real or are these white flowers covered in blood?" You say smiling. He stretched his arms out gesturing for you to give him a hug. You give in and hug him and breath in his "Man Perfume" as Mark likes to call it.

"Are you having fun sniffing me?" He laughs while pulling away from the hug to give you a kiss.

"Oh and.." He coughs, "Wait, there's more." He says in the voice of a talkshow host.

He gets a small bag out from his back pocket and hands it to you. You raise your eyebrow and he punches you playfully.

"Open it." He says smiling. You open it and it's a necklace that has a black M on it.

"Mark I love it!" You say as you give him a kiss on the cheek. You try to put it on but can't get a hold of the clasp. Mark twirls you around and you move your hair out of his way.

After he puts on the necklace, he kisses your neck, the thing you always die over.

"Hold on I need to get your present from my room." You say as you put your hair back. He made himself at home and sat on the couch.

You go into the room and see a small box wrapped up in squirrel wrapping paper because he always loved squirrels. You pick it up and walk out into the living room.

He heard you walking and turned around and saw the squirrel wrapping paper.

"Oh mer gerh, you didn't have to, this is the best present ever!" He says while taking the present.

I think I overlooked the wrapping paper...

"Mark, open it." He looked at you with hurt in his eyes. "I don't want to hurt my babies." He says as he clutches onto the box tighter. You sigh as you go to the kitchen to get scissors and cut out a few squirrels from the wrapping paper and hand it to him.

He smiles at you and starts to open the present, he rips open the wrapping paper. "A box? I expected more from the awesome wrapping paper."

"Just open it." You said laughing. He opened it and you saw his expression change drastically.

"This isn't real life, you did not just get me sticky mustaches." He says holding them up. It was a pack that had all different color mustaches, blue, pink, purple, yellow, and red. He opened it up and put the blue mustache on you, you giggle as he puts on the pink one.

"I look hawt don't I?" He says standing up, putting his hands on his hips and puffing his chest out.

"Yes, very." You say laughing but then realizing the reason he came over here. You had to tell him you were moving.

"Thank you so much I lov-" He stopped talking once he realized you were upset.

"Hey, what's the matter? Did I do something wrong? Do you not like the flowers or the necklace? Oh god did I got the wrong pre-"

"No Mark it's not you, I-" You can't get the words out, they can't get out of your mouth. But you finally got the courage to say it.

"I'm moving to California." You say quickly, you didn't want to see his reaction but you look up at him. You see hurt in his eyes as they start to water.

You start to cry as he gave you a hug. You didn't want to leave him but you wanted a degree as a nurse. You couldn't live a life and not have a proper job to keep you up. He pulled away and held your head in his hands, you two locked eyes and he kissed your forehead.

"Hey, don't cry, you'll be back in about 5 years. I'll be fine and so will you."He says giving you a hug.

"A-are you sure?" You say in between sniffs. He smiles and wipes away your tears with his thumb.

"Yeah, but don't worry about it I'm going to Ohio, the University of Cincinnati to be specific. So I'll be busy with my stuff to." He says in a goofy voice. You laugh, knowing he's trying to cheer you up.

"I know, I'll just really miss you..."

"I know, I'll miss you too, I love you." He then kisses you.

"I love you too."
