Three weeks.
Jacob was leaving for tour in three weeks.
I thought about this right as I shut the door after Jacob left my house.
Why didn't he tell me before? Did he think I was going to tell anyone? Did he not want me to be sad?
Well telling me just weeks before leaving would make me a lot sadder than telling me like a month or two earlier.
I understand. He's probably just as sad as me. He looked really down in the dumps the whole time he was standing outside my house on the porch.

*Monday Morning*

*Beep* *Beep* *Beep*

Yep. 6:30 AM. Time to wake up and get ready for school.
I slowly got out of my bed and threw on a pair of sweatpants and a hoodie. I walked into the bathroom and threw my hair up in a ponytail. I didn't feel good. I didn't feel sick, I just didn't feel good. I didn't feel like myself. I felt kind of sad.

     I went to school, did the same old stuff, and went back home on the bus. Jacob finally got ungrounded so at least I could text him and hang out with him outside of school.

   After making me and Chloe dinner, around 7 PM I was sitting on the couch downstairs watching TV with Chloe when I got a text. Guess who? Jacob.
"Hey," the message read.
"Hi," I answered.
"I will miss you so much when I'm gone. I know I will and I promise that I will think about you every single day," he texted back.
Wow. That was a lot. I texted back this, "Jacob I am gonna miss you the second you leave. And every day will get harder, but right now I'm just counting down the days until you're gone."
"Don't do that Sierra, don't count down the days. We should spend the most time with each other as we can until that day arrives, so are you busy right now?"
"No, I'm not,"
"Well then meet me outside in 10 minutes. We're going on your roof :)"
"Okay lol"
     My roof? Out of all the places we could have gone? How are we even going to get up there?
     After ten minutes I was sitting on a bench on my porch. I saw Jacob walking to me so I got up and ran to him. He gave me a really tight hug for like 2 minutes. I didn't want to let go.
     After we hugged Jacob said, "follow me," so I did.
     We walked into my backyard and I saw Jacob grab a ladder from off the back porch. I don't know how it got there, but I didn't even care. My mom was working late tonight so it was just me and Chloe at the house. But I knew that if Chloe saw us getting on the roof she would tell mom and I would get in big trouble. So I told Jacob to slowly open the ladder and place it under the roof quietly.
     He helped me up first and then he joined me. I walked to the front of the roof so we were facing Jacob's house. Jacob followed and then we sat down.
"Jacob," I whispered as I tear snuck out of my eye and dropped down my face.
"I love you," Jacob said as he put his arm around me.
"I don't want you to leave me!" I whisper-yelled.
"I know but sometimes we all have to let go. And it's only for like 2 months," he told me.
"Yeah, only 2 months. What am I going to do? I know we haven't been dating for long but I can't be without you."
"Yes you can Sierra. Hunter is here. Just hang out with him while I'm gone and do activities that will get me out of your head for a while."
"That's the thing Jacob. I can't get you out of my head. You never cross my mind because you are always there. What if our relationship doesn't work out?"
"Sierra don't say that. No relationship is perfect and there will be bumps in the road. This is just one of them I promise. I love you so much and we will make this work out. I promise."
"Pinky promise?"
"Pinky promise."
We intertwined our pinkies for our pinky promise as I giggled and he smiled.
"I am so glad I moved here," I said as I wiped a tear from off my face.
"We may be young, but I know that this is love," Jacob told me as I rested my head on his shoulder and thought about us being together forever.
