I layed my last box down and put my hands on my hips. As I looked around the room I sighed, remembering my life. "Hey babe I-" Harvey said as he walked in. "You okay" he asked with a smile as he put his arm around my waist. "Oh yeah, what's up" I replied. "Well I was saying that we're all downstairs waiting on you. We should go do something" he suggested. I nodded and we walked down to the living room. "Hi momma" I beamed when my mother came I to sight. "Hi baby!" She smiled. I quickly hugged her and sat down. "So what are we doing" I asked. "Well uh how about we go for a walk" Harvey suggested. I nodded and we walked towards the door. "Caroline aren't you coming" I asked my sister who was still sitting on the couch. She shook her head... okay? I turned and walked out the door. "Ah what a beautiful day" I said letting out a breath. "Yeah" max agreed. "Max, what's wrong, you've been acting funny for almost three days" I said. He sighed. He grabbed my hands and stood in front of me. "Listen to me. I need to tell you something very important" he said hesitantly. I nodded. "I don't want you to be upset, but I got a job offer, I am moving to Florida" he explained. My heart skipped a beat, Florida? "Florida... as in.. America" I asked, he nodded. No, he can't go... he just can't. I quickly pulled him in for a hug. "Please don't go max" I begged. "I'm sorry. I have to" he said. I buried my face in the crook of his neck. "I think I have to go home now" I said, turning away. "No please" he begged, grabbing my arm. Without looking back, I pulled away and ran inside. I ran to my room and locked the door before plopping face first onto my bed. Nobody understands me and Max's bond except for Harvey, it's so hard to let him go. Knock knock knock "dove, it's max. Please let me in" he said. I sighed and got up. I opened the door and locked it behind us, leading max to my bed. "Can I please just have a minute with you" I asked. "Of course, I planned on it anyway" he replied. I waited for him to sit on my bed and then I sat facing him and we hugged... for ten minutes. We soon layed back and he wrapped his arm under my neck and I layed mine on his chest. I tried to hold back my tears but I finally fell asleep.

I woke up and my face was blotchy and puffy. Max was still asleep next to me. I got up quietly and walked downstairs. "I knocked on your door for like five minutes. What were you doing" Harvey asked. "We were hugging but then we fell asleep" I said. He nodded and embraced me in a hug. "I'm sorry dove" he said. I squeezed him a bit tighter. "I love you, please don't ever leave me." I sniffled. "I would never" he reassured me.

As he stepped into my room, I felt an unbearable pit in my stomach. "Max, I'll miss you" I sadly said. "I'll miss you too" he replied before hugging me. We walked downstairs so he could say goodbye to everyone, when he was done I walked him to his car. "Goodbye" I said trying to fake a smile. He ran to me and threw his arm around me. "One last hug" he said. I squeezed my eyes shut and finally pulled away. "Wouldn't want to miss your flight" I laughed. He nodded and got in his car. I watched as he drove away.

I walked into the mall with Harvey, man I haven't been here in 4 years! The first store I walked I to was American eagle. Long story short, I ended up spending over $189 at the mall.
------2 years later-----
I threw away the last box from me and Harvey's big move. The new house is medium sized but very nice. "Oh man, I'm getting old" I laughed to myself. Penny and Jessica are coming by later for dinner, Jess is in a relationship with Ryan and penny is dating Zander. How great! I walked downstairs and plopped down next to Harvey on the couch. "This is nice" I said. "It sure is" he replied. "What are we going to do" I asked. "Don't worry, we'll tell them" he replied. I nodded and layed my head on his shoulder.
