I spent the next few months in guilt and sadness. Adam has been begging for me to apply to the same university as his and not go abroad but I kept telling him that this is what I want even though it's not. Everything that I'm doing right now is for the best.

Today's our graduation day; him and Sarah are still going strong. This is the longest relationship Adam has ever been in and it's not even surprised me. He's wanted Sarah from the beginning so he wouldn't blow his chances.

I throw my hat into the air and watch as everyone around me scream in happiness while I just stand there like a statue. I feel a tear pour down my eye knowing I wouldn't be here again for the next few years.

Looking besides me I watch Sarah and Adam lock lips with each other and that just brings more pain to my heart. They pull away and Adam looks over at me with a huge smile on his face. He seems to notice my tear and immediately comes over to me.

"What happened?" He asks me with concern.

"I...I'm going to miss you" A few more tears spill out until I find myself sobbing into his chest. Adam hugs me back and runs his hand through my hair.

"I'm going to miss you as well. I tried to stop you Zoe but you wouldn't listen. It's still not late" He assures me. I pull away and shake my head as a no.

"I've made this choice for a reason Adam, I can't back out" I inform him.

He lets out a sigh and nods his head pulling me back into his chest.

"We're all going to miss you a lot" Sarah says from behind Adam. He pulls me away from him as Sarah approaches me into a hug.

I may not like Sarah and Adam being together but she was always a good friend to me. I hug her back as we all start to laugh.

"Here's to new beginnings then?" Adam asks out loud looking at Sarah. I know what he means by that and I know that I won't ever be in that new beginning.

"New beginnings" I answer back. He puts his arm around me and places a soft kiss on top of my head making me clutch onto him tighter.

I wonder how I'm going to survive not seeing him at all.
