*Rebecca's POV*5 days later*

Today's the last day that To Be One is here before they leave. And honestly I'm an emotional wreck.

Mikey texted me around lunch and told me not to make plans for dinner. Obviously he's planning something.

I started to get ready at about six. I took out my makeup supplies and tried the best that I could to I cover up my red, swollen eyes and the mask of sadness on my face.

If I was a normal teenaged girlfriend, I would show my boyfriend that I don't want him to leave and to stay here with me until I go back to NYC.

But no, I'm not that type. I'm the type that will suck up my emotions and will make sure that he would go to California no matter what. So it's currently 7:30pm and I just slipped on my heels and I'm waiting for Mikey to come pick me up.

My iPhone vibrated and it was Mikey letting me know that he was outside. Before I exited my room and ran off into the amazing night that was about to happen, I looked at myself in the mirror. I noticed something different about me, and at that same moment I realized that I was wearing the same exact jewelry that I was wearing for my prom. The same heels that I was wearing for there meet and greet in NYC.

I smiled at the coincidence and walked out of my room, and the house and into Wanda's car. Mikey was sitting in the back and I sat next to him. "Hey Becca." he said and smiled at me. "Hey!" I said and returned the smile.

We got to Seaside Heights and I wanted to hit Mikey as soon as I saw the sign. I was over dressed, way over dressed. We got out of the car and Wanda said, "I'll pick you guys up in two hours! Call me if anything!" I smiled politely and said thank you.

"So, remember our first date?" Mikey asked me as he inter wined our hands. "Of course! How could I forget? It was also the day that we first kissed." I said smirked at him. He laughed and had the amazing smile across his face.

"Well, let's do that all over again." He said as lead me to the ferris wheel. There was a old grumpy man that looked at me like I was an alien because I was in heels. Mikey noticed that and hooked his around arm protectively around my waist. He opened the latch in front of the cart and Mikey and I ducked in the cart.

As the cart began to move, Mikey and I got closer and closer. Until his arm was around my shoulder and my arm around his hips. "I'm going to miss you." I finally said and he kissed my head. "Not as much as I am going to miss you." He said and I looked up at him.

I interwined our fingers while his arms were still wrapped around me. Our cart got to the top and it stopped... He put his hand on my cheek and I put my hands around his neck. We both started to lean in and then he stopped, just centimeters from my lips. He was breathing heavily, I felt his heart racing. He leaned in and our lips touch. I felt like I was going to melt as I shut my eyes tight. His lips were soft and warm. His hand left my cheek... I felt his hands travel up and down my back. He opened his lips a little so his tongue can poke my teeth for entry...

Just like the first time we were on the ferris wheel.

The rest of the night was just him and I being ourselfs and enjoying the last few hours that we had together. He even won me a big dog from a ring-toss game, and got me a sweater from the Shore Store. We got to my aunt's house and I hugged Wanda for driving us to there and back. Mikey walked me to my door as always. But I didn't ring the bell.

We both looked at each other and then I gave him a hug and he hugged me back tight. My face got hot and a tear fell and a few more. I was ruining my makeup but I didn't care. He broke our embrace and frowned a little when he saw my tears, rolling down my face.

"Don't cry, you're going to make me sad." He said and I quickly cleaned my tears away. "I'm sorry, I promised myself I wouldn't cry in front of you." I said and looked at the floor. "Hey," He said as he lifted up my head to look at him. "You can't help what you feel." He smiled at me.

"I'm happy for you, I am, I'm just going to miss you, a lot."

"I'm going to miss you too." His eyes were glossy. "What time are you guys leaving tomorrow?" I asked him. "Six in the morning."

I stayed silent. "It's really early, that's why I didn't tell you before."

"It's not that bad Mikey. I usually wake up for school at that time." I said with a warming smile.

"That's crazy," he laughed. "Hey, baby. It's up to you if you want to come to say goodbye... Or naw." I started to laugh really hard and so did he.

"If I wake up early and get there by 6, then yes. What airport though?" I asked him.

"JFK!" Wanda yelled from the car. It made me blush because she was listening to our whole conversation.

He blushed too. "Yeah, JFK." He said. "Mikey, it kind of sounds like you don't want me to go..." My voice faded.

"No! Of course I want you to go! It's just that if you can't make it, I understand," He continued. "You know, the time... if it's too hard."

I hesitated for a little. I had to think of an answer. I mean, it's true, it's really early, I have to get there at six in the morning. I want to be there to say goodbye before he leaves for god only knows how long, but I don't want to cry in front of him like tonight. "I'll see. But if I don't go, I just want you to know that I love you very much." I finally replied and hugged him.

"I love you so much more. This summer has been amazing, and I owe it all to you." he said and pecked my lips. I smiled slightly and we said our good nights... maybe our last good nights face to face for a while.
