**"Your brother would be so proud of you right now. You're so mature" my mom whispered as we all began to cry harder.

Now I have to find the guts to talk to Cody tomorrow... This is the only right thing there is to do. **

I walked up to my room and laid myself down on my bed crying. Even though I'm so young I guess I was kind of excited to have a baby. I was a little worried that people at school would make fun of me, but I tried my best to prepare myself for that because school starts up again in a week and my stomach will slowly start to get bigger. The thing that I'm most sad about is that I have to do what's right and talk to Cody. It's definitely not an easy thing to do. I shed a couple more tears before falling asleep.

The next morning I got dressed and left my house and walked to Cody's. I could feel my chest physically ache when I stepped foot through the door. "Hey baby" Cody said smiling as he kissed me on the lips and hugged me. I tried to hold on to him for as long as I could knowing that this might be the last time I will ever hug him. He held my hand and walked me up to his room. The second we got in there he began to kiss me passionately. He makes me so happy and I love his kisses. Things were slowly getting heated and I knew that this wasn't right I gently pushed him off me and turned my body away from his knowing I have to tell him what has been on my mind. "What's wrong angel?" Cody asked pulling me closer to him.

"Cody I need to talk to you about something." I spoke. My heart dropped instantly. We both sat down on his bed.

"Oh, uh, alright. What is it Autumn?" He asked me loosening his grip on my waste.

"I've been thinking a whole lot lately and I know that you are leaving in a couple days... As much as it hurts me to tell you this..." I took a deep breath. "We aren't going to work." The second those words slipped out of my mouth I choked up and began crying. I moved my body away from Cody's, but he brought me close to him again.

"Baby, no. Don't say that. We can make a long distance relationship work. You can visit me in the states lots. We can do this. I'm not letting you go." Cody said trying to calm me. It hurt so much because I knew we could make a long distance relationship work, but I couldn't tell him why I was doing this because I already lied to him and I needed to do whats best for his life and his career.

"I know we could Cody... But I..." I had to lie to him again to make him let go of our relationship. "I.. I've lost a lot of feelings for you. I don't think I love you the way I use to. I think it's best we aren't anything anymore." I said covering my mouth right away realizing what I had just said. Cody began to cry, but I could tell he was trying to hold himself together.

"Oh... Umm..." He moved away from me a little bit "can you please tell me why you've fallen out of love..?" He asked while quietly whimpering.

"Um, I just thought a lot and I don't think that we are a good couple... We are so different and... There's just a lot going on in my life right now that's best for me to stay single and keep my own life to myself and not share it with someone else." I said continuing to make up lies to the one I loved.

"Okay.. I understand" he said standing up off his bed to walk out of his room.

"Wait! Cody.." I said making him stop walking. He turned around to me and took a couple steps closer. I stood up and stood in front of him "if I could I'd tell you why. I promise you I don't want to do this, but it's best for you... can you please promise me one last thing?" I said crying harder. He nodded his head trying not to make eye contact with me while tears continuously poured out of his eyes. "Remember that time you promised me you'd never forget me ever again?" I said cracking up. My tears choking my words. He nodded his head again crying harder this time though. "Well... Please break that promise. I want you to forget everything about me. I want you to forget our relationship, our friendship, our love, everything we did together and all the things we shared as a couple." My voice began to shake as I continued. "I want you to forget what it's like to kiss me, what it's like to hug me, what it's like to laugh with me. I want you to forget the way I smile and the way I look at you. I want you to forget everything. Will you please promise me..?" I began to feel my whole body shake. "Please?" I whispered looking down at the ground. My lip quivered.
