I woke up and slowly rolled myself off of bed. I walked over and started to make a cup of coffee. I'm hoping it'll mask the feeling of lack of sleep. I wondered over to my closet and pulled on Wyatt's baggy t shirt and a pair of his sweat pants. He had a few clothes over here for when she spent the night with me watching movies and stuff. We had agreed that it was just be smart to keep clothes in each other's dorms.

I made my way back to the coffee machine and sipped leisurely. The nice burning sensation running from my tongue and down my throat. Thank the lord for coffee.

And Saturdays.

Ah, yes, it's fucking Saturday. I smiled to myself at the thought, no work or anything. My day off. I let out a sigh of relief, but i stopped in the middle of it hearing a knock on the door. I groaned and walked over to it, opening up the door. "Yes?" I said leaning against the door frame sleepily. I didn't release who it was until the person spoke. "I'm glad to see you too, babe." Wyatt said with a smile. "Oh, er, sorry." I said blushing a bit. I stepped out of his way and let him inside the dorm. "I wasn't expecting you." I said maybe a little harsh than I intended. I was happy to see him, it's just the morning. He knows how I am. "Yeah, sorry. Just missed you, that's all." He shrugged. I now got a prober look at him. He was wearing a white t shirt and a pair of nice black sweat pants. One of those really sexy Nike pair that aren't really cheap. "New pants?" I asked as he sat down on the rolly chair at my desk, twisting himself slightly. "Yeah, someone stole mine." He smirked at me I rolled my eyes and giggled remembering what I was wearing. "Coffee?" I asked, already reaching for a mug. "Yeah, sure." He said and started to doodle something on the note pad on my desk. After the coffee was done brewing, I handed him his cup. I sat down across of him on my bed, sipping my coffee casually. He rolled himself over to me.

"Hey, babe?" He said. "Mmm?" I said in reply, taking another sip of my coffee. "Remember when you said you wanted to quit collage and that you don't care about a degree or not?" I set down my mug and started to think about 2 days ago. I was rambling off about how much this place sucked and how It wasn't what I thought it would be. I mean, this wasn't for everyone. I'm fine with just graduating high school, man.

"Yeah... Why?" I reached out and stroke his arm. He smiled in return and held my other hand. "Well, let's do it." I froze.

"D-do wha-"

"Quit collage." Wyatt shrugged and looked into my eyes with total seriousness. "Oh" was all that I could manage. he got up from his chair and sat down next to me on the bed with my hands in his. "So, you know I'm pretty wealthy. We could get an apartment if you'd like... We could live together, ya know? We basically do that now." He chuckled a little then bit his lip. "Or you could just stay at your parents, it doesn't matter, but let's leave this hell hole." Wyatt gave a genuine smile. His smile slowly faded when I didn't return it...

I was still a title shocked that he was being serious. I know that people do it all the time... But I need to be here to get a good career. I mean, I could be a writer and skip collage, I don't think it'll matter, but this is a bit of a decision. He also wants a place with me... He's 19 now and my birthday is coming up soon. I still feel pretty young to take that step. I would love to do it... That why I could monitor him and see if he starts to pick up drinking again. He hasn't at all (from what I believe) sine our little incident at Cider Hill. I love Wyatt... I really do...

Eh, what the fuck. Let's give it a try.

"Yeah, okay. I'm game." I told him. His eyes lit up and his mouth dropped a little. "A-are you sure?" He asked. His grip on my hands tightened a bit. I knew that he was pretty excited. "Yes... I want to do this. I would love to share a place with you and get by working at Starbucks." We gave each other huge smiles. Wyatt pulled me into a very, very, tight hug. He planted a sport and passionate kiss onto my lips and pulled away. "Better start packing then." He winked and got up from the bed. "I'll be back later... I just need to get a few things. An hour or so. I would like to take you out to lunch, so would that be enough time for you to get ready?" Wyatt asked as he put the chair back in its place and set his now empty coffee mug in the sink. "Sounds grand." I said and got up from the bed. He turned his heel and walked out of the door with a smile. "See ya, princess."
