i sit with troye everyday at lunch now. I can tell my old friends don't like it, but i dont care. joe seems the angriest. 

"your friends obviously dont like us." tyler says one day. 

"and i dont like them anymore." i tell him. 

here i am, in my room, at night, not sleeping. i dont even kniw why i cant sleep. i roll over to try and sleep when i hear my window open, and i look up and see a dark figure. 

"dont worry, its just me connor." the dark figure says. i realize its troye. 

"oh my god, troye, you scared me." I whisper. 

"sorry."

"what do you want?" i ask. 

"im ready." troye whispers. 

"what?"

"im ready for the plan." he repeats. 

"you are?" i ask. he nods. 

"tomorrow." i state. 

"tomorrow then. see ya." troye waves and goes out the window. 

*****

the next day, i always gkance at troye, who always glances at me too. we act like everything is normal, but we know we wont be back. 

the hardest thing is leaving my grandma and my mom. but, i have to. troye and i have been planning this for years. 

when it gets late, when my grandma and mom are in bed, troye and i meet on our roofs with bookbags full of stuff.

"so we're doing it?" i ask. troye nods. 

"alright then, troye boy, lets do it." i say. 

we climb down the tree that is in between both of our roofs.

"oh, and i stole steele's keys." troye says. 

"really troye." i say. he nods. 

"let's go!" he says. he grabs my hand and we run to the car. we get in and he slowly puts the key in the ignition and starts the car. we drive off. 

"I can't believe we're actually doing this." i say. he nods, but keeps his eyes on the road. 

eventually, we are out of perth. we are actually doing this. aussie here we come. 

troye stops the car. "i need gas." he states. then he exits the car and goes to the gas tank. i sigh. i just left my family and im not going back. but, the city's a bore. 

"are you ready?" troye says when he gets back in the car. i nod. he starts the car and drives off again. 

we end up in albany. we stop at a motel. its not the worst, but not the best. 

"come on, connor. or are you sleepingin the car." troye teases. 

"im coming. hold on." i reply. 

we go inside and get a room. it ends up only having one bed. 

"what are we doing troye?" i ask. 

"connor, don't you wanna see the world? all the countries and the stars?" he asks. i nod. "and there is no turning back now." he adds. 

"no turning back." i repeat. he smiles and nods. i love that smile. 

*****

i wake up the next morning next to troye, who is still asleep. hes so cute when he sleeps. what am i saying? 

i get dressed and then see that troye woke up. 

"hey troye." i greet. 

"hey." troye replies, stretching. 

"get dressed, we still have driving to do." i say, throwing a pillow at him. 

"okay, okay." he says, getting up. he goes into the bathroom and comes out with brand new clothes on. i love his sense of style. 

"you checking me out?" troye says. 

"shut up." my face turns a bright red. 

"make me." he says. 

"are you sure you want me to?" 

"what can you do? punch me?" troye says. 

i then tackle him. we go to the ground. we both are laughing. 

"you win." he states. i smile. 

"great. now let's go." i say. 

we check out of the hotel and go to the car. this time, i drive. i stop at the nearest mcdonalds. 

"what do you want?" i ask troye.

"sausage mcmuffin with egg." he replies. 

"can i get two sausage mcmuffins with egg please? and two cokes." i ask the woman.  

"that will be $7." she says. I drive up to the window and pay and go up to the next and get the food. I check to make sure we get everything, then drive off. 

i take a bite of my sandwich and continue driving. 

"this is still blowing my mind." troye says. 

"that makes two of us." i reply. 

"we're making our futures." troye says. 

and i want to spend it with you. 

"we are." i reply. 

*****

we are in esperance. its a beach. i stop the car and troye looks at me in confusion. 

"whyd you stop the car here?" he asks. 

"we're at a beach, troye. dont you like beaches?" i ask. he smiles at me.
