76. I want you to have this.

✨✨✨

Mike was packing away his stuff ready to go to college. He didn't want to leave this behind. What he means by this, is the young woman sat on his bed, chewing on a cold (but cooked) Eggo.

"I'm really proud of you, but I'm going to miss you so much," El said, as soon as she'd finished her final Eggo. She pushed herself off his bed and stood face-to-face (more like face-to-chest).

"I'm going to miss you too," Mike said, softly holding her face. "So, so much,"

Their noses came to press against each other, as if they were trying to memorize every little thing about the other (even though they already knew this, it was an excuse for Mike to be carrying El like a baby and for El to properly look her boyfriend in the eyes).

"I want you to have this," El said, pushing a photo frame into his hands.

In his hands, sat a pastel pink photo frame, with a small cluster of photographs during their time together.

Prom (Junior and Senior Prom), Spring Fling and Homecoming, the State Fair, Movie Night and the Snowball of 1984.

"Baby," Mike sighed, shutting his eyes, and kissing the top of her head. "Come with me,"

"Come with me. There's some extra room in the dorm and you can share the bed with me - if you want, I mean if you don't you can take the bed and I can sleep on the sofa or the floor-" Mike rambled, before El put her finger over his mouth to stop him from speaking for a second.

"Of course I'll come with you,"
