Chapter 1
"Hey beautiful," my boyfriend of 4 years says to me while he has his arms around my waist.
"Hey," I say pressing my lips against his. I start college tomorrow and chad promised me to spend the whole day with me before I leave. I was going to FSU in Gainesville which is 6 hours away so I can see chad rarely I will only be able to see him in holidays or when we FaceTime.
"Let's get going babe," he says while grabbing my hand so our fingers interlock with one another.
"Your mom said I can bring you whenever so I have the whole day with you" he kisses my forehead. I'm glad to spend the whole day with him since who knows when the next time I'll see him after college. I'm pretty nervous about college it's nothing like high school there's parties every weekend. We walk to his car and of course the gentlemen that he is, he opens the door for me.
"Thank you," I say flattered. I sit down and buckle my seat belt while he settles down next to me. I wonder where we're going?
"You know I'm really going to miss you right?" he says sorrow filled in his eyes.
"I'm gonna miss you too," I say. I really am. I place my head against his tough and muscular muscles.
"You know, you going to college gives me the advantage to brag about you to my friends," he says while I blush uncontrollably. "Just don't let guys flirt with you or I will have to go there myself and kick some jerks ass," he smirks.
"Don't worry about that," I assure him.
"I'm serious chels," he says serious expression in his face.
I giggle to myself. "How long is it till we get to where ever we're going," I ask anxiously. I'm just so anxious and it always gets the best to me since I may sound annoying asking.
"Well, we were gonna go to the store and go to the store to buy sketch pads and pencils and maybe go to the art museum that just opened," he stopped to catch his breathe. "And maybe we could draw some of the master pieces and I know it's lame but I think it would be fun since we both love to draw,"
"I'd love to go!" I eeped. It amazes me how much he really knows me and that's what I love about him.
--
We get to the art museum and it's amazing. So many master pieces by so many amazing artist.
"Stop drooling over the masterpieces and lets start drawing yeah?" He says chuckling to himself. "Maybe let's make this a competition? We'll get some stranger to judge our artwork, the best artwork gets to let the loser do anything for them?"
I think about it for a second and say "deal" as he pulls me in for a kiss. After walking for what seemed like forever we finally chose one. The painting is of a girl running through a field of sunflowers. We started sketching it.
After an hour or so I thought, I finally finish and instantly fall in love with my identical sketch to the masterpiece.
"I'm done," he said smiling revealing that gourgues white smile.
"I am too," I say biting my lip. I love how he challenges me after all I love a little challenge.
"Ok in the count of 3 we will reveal each other's sketches. 1....... 2....... 3!" We both instantly flip our work to face eachother. I was really impressed by his and by his expression on his face he was impressed about mine aswell. We quickly pick a random stranger and ask him who's artwork is better and of course chad wins. I pretend to pout.
"It's not fair," I sound like such a sore loser but oh well. "What do I have to do for you since I lost?" I ask.
"Oh don't worry about that I already know," he winks at me. I giggle at him and we continue our walk around the museum mesmerized by all the incredible masterpieces. My hands were getting cold and chad notices so he grabs my hand and kisses it while I smile at him while he does so. I'm gonna miss everything about him, his unexpecting visits to my house, his gifts, his cuddles and just everything. I was pretty surprised when I got the letter back from Florida state saying I have been accepted and that I would start my Fine Arts classes immediately after summer vacation. It was the best thing that has ever happened to me school wise.
"It's only 12 pm so now we're going to continue our journey of the day,"he says laughing. I want this day to last forever with him, I never want it to end. Me and chad never really argue about anything but when we do it's over something so dumb we automatically apologize. That's why I love him so much. People always ask us how we met and I don't know why but I still remember. It was our 7th grade year, I was in the lunch line and we were waiting for our food. Exactly when we get our food we bump into eachother and his and my food fall all over me. We instantly become best friends until 9th grade year he asked me out and since then we're inseparable. We even got nominated for cutest couple in our senior year and got a picture of us kissing in the year book.
"Is everything ok?" He says concerned. I'm ok it's just I was thinking about things and memories I wanted to say but all I manage to say is yeah. He grabs my hand and kisses it everything he does is so charming just like him.
"Chelsea I love you," he says.
"And I love you more," I say to him. He wanted to move in, in an apartment just the two of us but I declined his offer months ago because I thought it was too soon and I wanted to take it slow although we have been dating for 4 years.
As we continue walking a man walking towards comes to me and asks "are you single?" I can't believe the nerves he has. Does he not see me and chad holding hands? Chad tightens his grip on my hand.
"No she's not single," chad says angrily. The man looked intimidated and honestly I don't blame him. The man then goes away immediately. I kiss him to congratulate him and midway through the kiss he smiles. His phone rings
"Shit," he says to himself. "It's my boss I have to take this," I told him I didn't mind. All I heard is "mhm" and a long and loud sigh. He says ok and hangs up. "I'm really sorry babe but I have to go to work it's an emergency, I'm sorry I'll make up for it another time," he says
"It's fine babe," I lied. I was hoping to spend it with him but oh well.
"I'll drive you home," he says. I sound so selfish but I don't want him to go. The whole ride home I remain quiet and so does he. As we pull in to my drive way he says "I love you," as he leans in and kisses me.
"I love you too," I say although I'm mad at him I can't help but laugh when he slaps my butt after getting off. I have no idea what to do now that chad had to drop me off so soon and went to work. I walk upstairs to hear my brother and his annoying friends playing his ps4.
"Oh hey chels you're here early weren't you suppose to be gone all day?" He says as all eyes were on me now.
"Shut up," I say to him and walked in my room slamming the door behind me. I sigh loudly and change into shorts and a oversized shirt.
"Chelsea hunny can I come in?" I hear my mother ask me while after knocking lightly on my door.
"Yeah," I say. She comes in and lightly puts my clean clothes on my bed.
"What happened? I heard you slamming the door to your room," she acts concerned.
"Well I wanted to spend the whole day with chad but he got called to his stupid job and you know it's my last day here... Ugh I sound so selfish"
"Actually not at all. I understand how you feel I'm sure he'll come around before the day ends," she says as she kisses me on my forehead. I love her but I hate when she's right.
