It's been a week or so since Harry and I's 'date' to the winter carnival and he's been busy so I haven't seen him much. I really do miss him and I don't know what he's busy with. Probably helping his mother with somethings around the house. I almost laughed at the thought of Harry cleaning.

The start of semester two is next Monday and I am dreading the thought of school. I don't want to wake up at 6 in the morning, get dressed put make-up on and look presentable just to impress people I won't even remember when I'm in the states in a couple months.

A couple months.

That's way to close. I'm going to have to leave everything I love in a matter of 3 months. I don't know if I'm ready but I know that I have to be. I can't let anything or anyone get in my way, just as Jennie and Kaleigh told me. I need to be ready because if I'm not my life kind of depends on that moment. I need to be able to get past the thought of leaving everything. I need to be strong for my future.

I was currently sitting on my bed scrolling through my twitter feed that had blown up because of Jennie and kaleigh tweeting me. Everyone wanted know what I did, how I got them to tweet me, why they know me, if I black mailed them to tweet me, etcetera. I tweeted many of the people who tweeted me back.

After getting bored of tweeting random people reassuring them that I did not black mail them to tweet me, I decided to call Harry and talk to him. I dialled his number and it didn't even ring once, it just went to his voicemail. I guess he had his phone off. Right after I got off the phone with Harry's voice mail I got a call from an unknown number and I decided to answer it.

"Hello?" I answered the phone.

"Hello. This is the softball coach, Kelly Smith, from MSU also known as Michigan State University. Could I speak to Anna Miller please?" My future coaches voice rang through the phone.

This can't be good if she's phoning me before I move.

"This is." I replied nervously.

"How are you this afternoon Mrs. Miller?" She asked politely.

"Call me Anna. I'm alright thank you."

"Well, we have some exciting news about your scholarship."

"Exciting?" I said kind of getting anxious for what she was going to tell me.

"There has been a room that opened on campus and we were wondering if you could come down early to start training that starts next week? I'm sorry it's such short notice. When you come early we will gladly pay for your gas whatever else necessary." She spoke but the words weren't processing.

"Wait? So you want me to move before my second semester has even started?" I asked.

"We have a teacher here ready to teach you anything that hasn't been taught yet this year." She said happily.

This can't be happening. I wasn't ready for this. I can't leave Harry and my father and everyone I have met here.

"I-"

"Anna, I'm sorry but we need you here for training. We thought we had much more time then we do. If you can't make it then I don't think we will be able to play for-"

"I'll be there by Thursday." I said. The tears pricked my eyes and I hated that I had to leave or I couldn't be on the team.

"Great see you then!" She said then hung up the phone.

I dropped my phone on to my bed, laid down and cried. I can't be leaving this early. I'm not ready to leave what I have just began to love. I can't tell Harry let alone leave him without crying. What am I going to do?
