"I'm gonna miss you..." Eli sniffled as she squeezed Jakob's hand.
"I know, I'll miss you too," he smiled sadly and kissed the side of her head, "god you're beautiful."
Eli blushed and covered her face with her free hand. "Stop, I'm blushing."
"You look so cute when you blush, you have a cute little smile to go along with it too." Jakob laughed and wrapped both hands around her, hugging tightly.
Eli held onto his arms around her and let some tears roll down her cheeks. "Jakob..."
"Yes?" He nudged his head in her hair softly.
"I love you..." Eli squeezed his arm tight as she let out the words in a small voice.
After sitting in a moment of silence Jakob told her he loved her too and smiled with a tear dripping down his cheek.
Jakob walked Eli home so he could pack. He packed slowly, he felt sadder with every box he loaded. The last box was the hardest, as it had all the pictures of him and Eli and some of her stuff.
After Jakob left Eli's house she went upstairs to her room and cried. She was really going to miss him, he was more than just a boyfriend, he was her best friend too. She looked at all the pictures she had of her and him and felt a piece of her heart break.
The next day Eli sat in Jakob's driveway as he pulled away in the moving truck to his new house in a different state.
