-I'm sorry guys but I have decided not to make a sequel)): sorry again
"Joey look"
"What?"
"I FOUND SQUISHY "
"Lola, i thought you would know by now that grasshoppers are not squishy. So that's not squishy. That's Mr G hopper"
"But. But. But i thought we agreed on calling our child squishy"
"Nope. It was Mr G hopper we agreed on"
"We are not raising a DJ"
"..........mr G hopper"
"Squishy"
"G hopper"
"Squishy"
"G hopper"
"G hopper"
"Squishy-wait hang on"
"HA"
"You tricked me" joey scoffed
I stuck my tongue out like a kid. Yes I still do that. But i only use it on rare occasions like this. What was I supposed to do? Punch his face in glee? We were fighting like little kids again so I had a point guard. At least we both laughed
"So.........you're debate is tomorrow" joey smiled weakly, as he finished his laughter
"Um...yeah. I totally forgot" lies. I never forget a single debate. Who do you think I am
"If you win you'll be attending-
"Duke" I cut him off. "I know" I sighed as I looked onto the ground. I know joey has got a plan for his future already. Stanford university. All week Ive been thinking about that. We only just started dating now. Loosing him again would be ten times more heartbreaking
"If you do win the debate, you know I'll be-
"2793 miles and 4493 kilometers away from me" I cut him off again. "I know" i sighed even bigger. "Please hope that i won't win" i said as i looked into his eyes
"Lola." He sighed as he brought me into a hug and kissed the top of my forehead. "Don't say stuff like that. As much as I don't want you to leave........i can't stop you" he said
"But why" I found myself looking at the ground again.
"Because. I left you. I left you to follow my dreams. Lola, we're still kids dreaming. But this is your chance to chase it" he responded. He placed his chin on my head and let out a deep breath
"I don't want to leave you" my voice started cracking
"I don't want you to leave me, lo"
"I love you, joey. So much" I let out. My first 'I love you' I a relationship. But his response wasnt what I was expecting
Mainly because he didn't respond with anything....
Joey's pov
I couldn't say anything back. I do love her. So so so much. I would literally give my life up for her. You could say I love her like its true love. Yeah. I do. She's mine now. All mine. Yeah she's gorgeous. But she's mine. Don't look at her, don't breathe around her, don't live around her.
The reason why I didn't say anything back is that she might be leaving me. It would hurt more to see someone you love leave you.

Lola's pov

My life decisions begins now
"Good luck to both teams" the lady announced
I glanced at the crowd, looking for joey. I finally spotted him.
He gave me a huge smiled with both his thumbs up, mouthing "good luck"
"Thank you" I mouthed back
And so it begins......

No way. I don't know how to feel about this.
"LOLA WE JUST WON!! You're suppose to be jumping up a down!!" Sadie squealed
I lost my words. "We won?" I asked
"Yeah" jarred smiled widely. "Aren't you happy about that?"
I hesitated. "Uh yeah. Totally." I laughed nervously. Yeah. Totally NOT. Please tell me this is sone sort of nightmare
"It was all you, Lola. Your rebuttal basically won us a scholarship to duke!!" Sadie squeaked. "thank you!!" She smiled as they brung me into a group hug. This nightmare is because of me?!
We won. I though I was meant to feel happy about it.
"Great job, lo" someone said. That's not joey...
I turned myself around. "What did you just call me?" I sassed
"Are you gonna like sue me for calling you that?" Zach chuckled
I shook my head. "Don't call me that ever again" I glared as I pushed past him
Joey's pov
She won.....
