Wanna know a great way to get your mind off of finals? Having a nice steamy make out session with your boyfriend. Which is what I'm doing right now. "Hey Abby-whoa Hayes. " Alex says walking into my room as Hayes snakes his hand up my shirt. I pull away fix my shirt as Hayes sits up too. I turn a dark scarlet red. "God Hayes. Is there ever a time your hand isn't in my sisters shirt?" He asks jokingly. Hayes just shrugs then cracks a grin. "It's just what I do." He says wiggling his eyebrows. Then he looks at Alex and he nods. "Umm. Abby I'm gonna let you guys talk, I'll call you tonight." He says. He picks up his bag and gives me a peck on the lips before leaving. I murmur a bye in concussion. Alex comes and sits next to me on the floor. "Were almost high school graduates." He says leaning his head back on my bed. I nod. "And we're almost 18. 10 days actually." I say mimicking his actions. He let's out a long breath and shifts awkwardly. "Hey Alex. What's up? Are you okay." I ask. He wraps an arm around me. "Abby. I have to tell you something but remember I love you. Okay?" I nod. Oh crap. What's going in. "Abby I'm going into the army." He says. I choke on my own spit. "What?" I ask ready for the tears to start to spill. "I want to make a difference, and you know I've always wanted to. Ever since uncle jimmy came back from the war it's been something I've wanted to do." He says. I shake my head. "No Alex you can't. You want to go to college and have a life. You might die." I say whispering the last part. He shakes his head. "No Abby I won't. Nothing in this world will stop me from coming home to you. Trust me." He says whipping my tears away. "Wh-when do you leave." I say crying. "July 1." He whispers. I shake my head. I don't get to spend a full month with him before he leaves. That's 12 days away. 2 days after our birthday! The tears keep falling. "Hey baby stop crying, please. I'm only gonna be gone for 6 months. I'll be back to annoy you before you know it." He says pulling me in for a hug. I hold him tight. "I love you Alex." I whisper. "I love you too Abby." He whispers back.
