"Timothée," she giggled walking closer to him to sit on the bed with him in his apartment. Her lips quickly touching his with a smile, taking in his beauty and the euphoria of the moment. Their bodies barren of clothing as they had just woken up and Ivy got water.

The camera in his hand, now set on the bedside table with the shutters closed. "Mon amor," passed his lips with a smile as he looked her up and down, caressing her chin. "How many hours?"

"Minuets," she corrected and all signs of happiness left her eyes after she looked at the clock. "27," her head moved to his bare chest and his slender arms wrapped around her. Skin on skin with tears threatening to fall.

"Come with me," Timothée asked with hope in his eyes that if he asked this time it would convince her to come even though he knew there was a slim chance that it would happen.

It crossed Ivy's mind so many times since he told her he needed to leave, they both knew it couldn't happen. Ivy had just gotten a huge modeling job for Marc Jacobs and right after she would be doing work with Vogue and other unfathomable companies. She couldn't just run off with Timothée and miss out on the amazing opportunities she scored.

"You know I would if I could, Timothée. I would in an instant," it broke Ivy to say that her voice quavered and she looked up at his face. She was going to be with him ever since he first got the job for Elio in Call Me By Your Name but when it fell through it broke his heart as he was so excited. When he got the call finalizing the day to fly to Italy to shoot it was two days after Ivy had gotten a call that Armani wanted her which led to Marc Jacobs and Vogue.

He pressed a kiss to her forehead, breaking the barrier of tears staying in and they streamed down Ivy's face. Timothée quickly jumping into action kissing away Ivy's tears while his started to fall. "My bounty is as boundless as the sea, My love is as deep; the more I give to thee, The more I have, for both are infinite," Timothée quoted Romeo and Juliet to Ivy while his tears bounded down his face and her's turned to rivers.

"Timothée Hal Chalamet h-how dare you?" Ivy tried joking while she pushed herself from his chest to sit across from him now. The first movie the two saw together was Baz Learman's, Romeo and Juliet and it continued to be a movie they watched all the time. It was He turned to grab his camera again and capture her to have something of her for when he flew to Italy to not see her for months. She posed and giggled lightening the mood but the room was still full of sadness and Timothée still had to leave at 12:45.

"My beautiful boy," Ivy sighed while grabbing one of his hoodies off the ground and slipping it on the getting back on the bed and straddled Timothée  She traced his cheekbones and nose, jawline and lips and wiped his tears. She was trying to make their last minutes or the best they could have had amid the circumstances. "I could never say how proud I am of you in words. As much as I don't want to see you leave I want to see you leave so bad as I know it means amazing things for you. I don't care if something happened to us I just hope you're happy." She looked down at him with her eyes full of love, sadness, hope and joy.

If you looked at the two in those moments (minus the tears and dialogue) you would never tell that a month from then she would regret every word she said whilst meaning the I love you's so damn much. If you looked at the two you would never tell that he beat himself up over that farewell and what followed for the next 32 months yearning to fix every mistake.

Timothée and Ivy got through their farewell's with "I love you's" being said after every other sentence and promises of texts and calls every day. With tears soaking the carpet in between apartments 47 and 48.

After the goodbye Ivy bolting into apartment 47 into her brother's arms who helped try to solidify the positive thoughts of "not forever, just a little bit of time away."

Timothée crying in the cab on the phone with his sister, solidifying the same the same positive thoughts and a lot of Kid Cudi and Romeo and Juliet on the plane. Arriving in Italy with a smile on his face and excitement bubbling.

18 moths after the farewell chaos ensued pulling the two together again after the heartbreak and sadness. 32 months later where they were both always in the spotlight where their careers took a halt and their hearts revved back up. 32 months later..
