A/N: Okay so I'm here I'm back better than ever. I reread the whole book so I can like remember some of the things that happened in the past so that it makes sense for whatever is coming next. Also because I forgot about what happens in the beginning lol but here is a new chapter many of y'all want.

;1 month later

There's only a couple of months left of school and you have no idea how excited I am to leave. The past month has been the same thing— sneaking around with Liam, dance practices, and family issues. Nothing exciting or new has happened but these last two months is where I make my final decision on what I want to do right after I leave.

I'm still unsure of what I want to do which is bad because I should already be prepared for the adult life to hit me but my high school years have been overwhelming and stressful that I never had the time to think about my career. Right now I'm still up with my Juilliard audition but I only have two more months to improve which isn't enough time before my audition.

Other than that, I've been getting better— mentally. I didn't take my fluoxetine for a couple weeks and I haven't had a single breakdown or side affect happen which was a good. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to keep laying off of my meds but I only take them when I need to but lately I've been happier and healthier.

"So have you submitted your application for your audition yet?" Leah asked as she places her tray onto the table.

I shook my head, "I'm not sure if I want to do Juilliard anymore."

"Are you kidding? You've been wanting to have that audition ever since middle school. Now is the chance"
"Yes but what about the other things"
"Such as?"
"I don't know med school, regular college, military"

She looks at me with a blank expression, "No way you'd have the guts to join there military."

"It's just an option" I respond as I take a bite of my cake.

"Well take that out cause that is not happening, I am not going to have you stationed or deployed somewhere far away from me. I thought we were going to live in New York together"
"Again, it's an option. But Leah I need you to understand that these last two months are very important for us seniors. I am going to do what I want to do for the rest of my life not what I want to do for fun"

She sighs, "Fine, whatever you do I'll support you through it. Even if it's somewhere where we will be far from each other. As long as you're happy, I'll be happy for you."

"Thank you. I appreciate it" I smile and give a little chuckle.

"Shut up, I know what you're thinking. If you think I'm joining whatever option you listed, you're wrong hunty."

Today was annoying as usual with all the people coming up to me asking crap about what I'm doing when I leave. It's all everybody asks about now since this'll be the the last time some of the freshman, sophomores, & juniors will see us.

I quickly exit my class and speed-walk through the hallways to avoid another human interaction cause there've been way too many and right now I just want to cut off my ears with what everyone has been asking.

"Andry" I hear someone call out my name from behind as I turn around and find Liam peaking his head out from his door.

Thank god it's not an annoying lower class man. I patiently wait by a wall that was across from his door for all the others to leave the building and once the hallways was empty I rushed into his classroom as he shuts the door.

"What's up?" I question and his expression looks excited, "you seem excited, why?"

"2 more months. Two! And you'll be out of here!"
"... I can't tell if you're saying it like it's bad or good news"
"It's good obviously cause we can move to New York and be wherever together!"

The whole making up my mind about what I want to do after I leave is stressing me out cause everyone thinks that I'm for sure going to submit my application for that audition.

"I... I don't know" I say as I walk past him and stop before turning around.

"Whatya mean?" He asks, confused.

"... I mean, I'm not sure that I want to do Juilliard anymore"
"But, I thought that's what you wanted"
"Was"
"So what're you saying? You have something different in mind?"
"Yes I do"
"Which is?"

I'm not even sure what I want to do, I need some more time before I make a final decision cause if I say whatever, I might as well make is as my final decision and I haven't made an actual decision.

"I dunno, med school or regular college— Stanford or Yale" I say unsurely.

"You sound unsure about those choices" He says.

"Because I am! I am unsure about everything right now, okay! I need time to think of what I officially want to do. I have more options it's just that I need time to choose and everyone is stressing me out talking about the Juilliard audition"
"Hey Hey, it's okay. I'm sorry I-I didn't know this was going to actually be super important to you"
"Of course it is. Its my career I'm talking about"

He walks up to me and wraps his arms around my shoulders as I wrap my arms around his torso and rest my head against his chest. Everything has been crazy at this point, sometime soon I'll be back on my those meds. Thanks to Liam though, he's a stress reliever.

Thanks for reading (:
