Abby's POV

I wake up in heaven. I feel his arms around me, his hand rubbing my back. I turn around and look in to his eyes. I swear I could look into his eyes forever, they are such a deep blue; I love them.

"Mornin'!" He smiles, his voice huskie from just waking up. I can't believe that I get to wake up like this.

"Morning," I smile back. He leans in and I smirk before giving him a small peck and then running out of bed and into the hallway. I run right into Jarrett and laugh as we both fall down and land with a thump. I look at Jarrett and see his wide eyes, right before I see John running out of our bedroom. I squeal and jump up, apologizing to Jarrett quickly before running down the stairs. The floors are wood and I'm in socks, so when I go to round the corner into the kitchen I start sliding on the floor and yell out. I hear John's laugh right behind me and start running faster through the kitchen. I head into the living room, really surprised that he hasn't caught me yet, kinda thinking he's just letting me run. I jump on to the couch only to find out, to late, that Derek was laying on it.

"Abby, I love you and all but you really need to get off of me," he grunts out as John runs into the room, smirking. I look at him with wide eyes before cautiously getting off of the couch. "Oats, can I talk to you for a minute?" I look over at my brother and instantly know what we're going to be talking about; last night when I ran away from him crying.

I could only manage to get a nod out. Sensing the change in mood instantly. Derek moves over and pats the seat next to him, waiting for me to sit down.

"I'm gonna leave now," John says awkwardly. He practically sprints out the door, but manages to get a big smile in before he leaves. I stare out into the kitchen, waiting for Derek to start what he wants to say.

"Abs.. I'm so sorry about last night. I know that it's because I remind you of dad. So many people have told me that I look like him. I was thinking and.. I might want to go back to collage." I stare at him completely confused. How does that have anything to do with last night? "I figured you started freaking out because I reminded you of our father?" he stops long enough only for me to give a slight nod. "Well, because of that I figured that you won't want me around and I need to get out of this town for a little while. There is to many memories that keep coming up and I need to get away from it. I need to clear my head. I've talked to Mama Meyers and Kevin and they said that they would gladly let you stay here or you can come live with me in San Fransico." When he's done with everything he looks back up at me. I'm sure disbelieve is written all over my face.

"How can you leave just like that?" I ask, confused.

"You can come with me if you want and I called my collage right after I found out about everything and told them I wanted to come back. Luckily I know the right people. I have to work really hard to get back on track for my degree and the new semester starts the week before your school starts. They got me a apartment, two bedrooms, so if you don't come with I'd get a room mate. and yeah.. All you need to do is decide."

"Everything I know is here. I can't  just pick everything up and leave, I have Jade, Brinley and the guys, I have the Meyers, I have my memories, I have my team and I have John... I can't leave. Not right now at least." My voice breaks, "I mean most people would probably wanna move after what happened. But, I need my friends right now.. I need John." I hug Derek and run out of the room before he can see me cry.

John's POV

"But, I need my friends right now.. I need John." As soon as that leaves Abby's mouth I run outside into the old horse barn. I know this is where she'll go when she's done with her conversation and I have heard enough. She's staying. My mom told me what Derek's plan is and what he's going to talk to Abby about when I came out of the living room and I couldn't believe it. I felt like crying. I couldn't let Abby leave. My life wouldn't be the same without her.

I think I may be falling in love with my best friend...

Abby's POV

I run into the kitchen, whipping my eyes before I grab three sandwiches and walk out to the horse barn. I climb up the ladder and I've barely get both feet on the ground before I'm lifted into the air by John. He spins me around and around, squishing the sandwiches I brought.

"I can't stand the thought of you leaving me," John whispers into my neck. I smile, and wrap my legs around his waist, dropping the sandwiches, only caring about John.

"I'm not going anywhere, Blue. I'm staying right here with you.." I whisper back and soon his lips are on mine once again. Everything around us disappears. I love kissing him and I swear each time it just gets better and better.

"Abby Mae Merino, will you go out with me?"
