Coexist // Dave Franco

chapter 14

Aria's POV

"... to LA"

I had no words. Everything was moving too fast I don't think moving in with Dave is such a good idea.

As much as I want to be with Dave. I'm only 18.

This could be something to look back at and laugh.

'You're too young.'

'It's not like you're getting married.'

'You're just a kid.'

I shook my head, "I- I can't." I bit my lip. His look turned from excitement from disappointed."I'm sorry."

"Just this one thing Aria. You can't do this one thing for me?" he begged. But I shook my head again.

"It's too risky Dave! You're leaving tomorrow morning. What about my mom and my sister?!" I stammered "I basically carry all the weight in my family and when I'm gone they're gonna fall apart. And I don't want to be blamed."

I grabbed my underwear and Dave's shirt. His masculine body made the t-shirt long and wide so it was like a night gown on me.

"Just think about it. Think about all the times we get to spend together over all the other times we won't see each other. I just don't want to leave you." He said putting his pants back on.

"Think about all the stress of finding a job. Once again I'm only eighteen." I snuggled onto his lap as he wrapped his arms around me.

"Well, what do you want to do?" He asked.

"I want to go with you but-"

"Then come with me. And if you start to miss your mom and sister then I can take you back. I just want you to be happy."

"I am happy." I lied. How could I be happy? He's leaving.

"Don't lie, Aria. Do it for us." He begged.

I listed the pros and cons.

Pros:

-Be with Dave
-Live together

Cons:

-Jocelyn
-Their child
-The cost of going to LA
-I don't know how long I'm being there

There was definitely more cons.
And it meant only one thing

I can't go.

It would be too much for me. And thinking about my mom handling everything on her own makes me want to be there and help. I'd miss them too much.

What if Dave and Jocelyn's child won't like me and rather have Jocelyn.

But since I'm dating Dave not Jocelyn than who will be the mother?

I didn't want to cause so much more trouble than there already is.

"Don't think about what will happen months from now. Spend these moments we have now." Dave says.

He was right. I was worrying too much but it was a normal. It was normal for me to be mad when he was leaving but it wouldn't be normal if I didn't go with him.

"Okay" I nodded.

He smiled widely in shock. "Really?!" He yelled.

"Yes!" I chuckled.

He grabbed me into a tight hug. "Lets get you to packing."He smiled.

~~~

I still can't believe I'm doing this. It was all happening so fast. Kind of rebellious but I liked it.
