*Amy's P.O.V*

"My family is having a little gathering at our house pretty soon.." I let Eli know as we were walking around the All Valley arena.

"Am I invited?" Eli asked.

"Of course." I smiled. "My grandma will be there and also Miguel's family. It's sort of a farewell gathering before Sam goes to Okinawa and I go with you to Pasadena."

"Well then, I would love to come."

"You were going to come either way."

"Yeah, obviously." He made a weird face to make me laugh before I brought him in for a hug because I want to have his arms around me.

Today is Miguel and Tory's final fight to see who would become Sekai Taikai champion. I obviously hope that Tory wins because we all can't stand Zara. She needs to be humbled a little bit. Or a lot if I have to be honest.

And Miguel is going against Axel. It's just weird because I have a soft spot for Axel even though I know that I'll be cheering for Miguel. I can only hope that no matter what the result is that Axel will find some clarity. Hopefully he doesn't deal with his sensei after this tournament is over.

That's something that I'm definitely rooting for when it comes to Axel, that he leaves his sensei.

"Oh, Demetri is coming!" Eli said from a distance.

We walked down the stairs just as Demetri entered the arena and he greeted the both of us.

"Hey." He said as Eli and I were standing beside each other. "Sorry that I'm late. I was changing my number for next year. As much as I'll miss dear 818, 626 has a much better ring to it."

"Wait, 626 is Pasadena." Eli said, getting a bit confused by what his best friend is telling him.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Did I not tell you?" Demetri said in a playful tone, "I got into Caltech."

My eyes widened at what my tall friend said and I began smiling much more. "Oh my gosh, Demetri. That's amazing. Congratulations."

"Thank you, Amy." He smiled back at me.

I looked towards Eli who held a shocked expression on his face. "What? Are you serious?"

"As the cancer we may very well cure one day via nanotechnology."

"But what about TMI?" I asked and Eli chuckled from beside me.

"Oh, sweet, sweet Amy." Demetri said as he put one of his hands on top of my head. "It's MIT."

"Yeah, no shit." I said before I turned towards Eli, "We've just been calling it TMI behind your back all year because you wouldn't shut up about it."

"Fair." Demetri said, not totally bothered by what I said. "And I told MIT thanks, but no thanks. At the end of the day, Caltech robotics program is a notch above. And plus, my best friend is going there."

"Binary Brothers for life." Eli smiled before he pulled Demetri in for a hug.

When they pulled away, I said, "So it looks like you're coming with us to Pasadena. That'll be fun."

"Not just that." Demetri said as he pulled out his phone and looked through it. "I even found a home for us. It's three bedrooms and.."

"Wait.." Eli said, "You want to live with Amy and myself?"

"Yeah." He said as he gave us a look as if what we said was a joke.

Eli and I looked at each other before I started to talk, "Demetri, we would be happy to have you living with us but you do know that we have a baby on the way, right?"
