-CAITLIN'S POV-

I walked up to Ralph's where I would be meeting him. I saw him looking all tall and cute sitting at a table that looked like an icecream cone.

The setting was all too happy for how I felt.

"Luke."

"Hey."

"No stop!"

"What?"

"Don't.. Look at me like that!!"

"What?!"

"All attractive with your lip ring and blonde hair and just.. Don't."

"I'm very confused come here let me check your temperature." He said, touching my forehead but I pulled away.

"Stop you're going it again." I pouted.

"Doing what?"

"You're.. Being my BOYFRIEND!"

"You want me to.. Stop? Being your boyfriend? I- I don't want to!" He shook his head.

"No that's my POINT!" I sat down, frustrated.

"Here I got you cotton candy." He said handing me the pink, happy ice.

"Luke. I'm moving." I finally said.

"WHAT?!"

"I KNOW!"

People stared at us all around but I didn't care.

"No. Caitlin." He said.

"I have to." I said into his shirt. "It's my dad's work."

"How long do we have left?"

"A week."

"That's it Caitlin I'm-- not ready!"

"Neither am I there's nothing I can do."

"Stay at my place."

"Luke you don't need another mouth to feed your mom is sick."

"I'll work! I'll sell my car! Caitlin I'll do that for you!"

"I love you." I said, wiping a tear.

"Where are you moving?"

"California."

He took a deep breath. "Far."

"Kinda."

"We can still be together. We have FaceTime and text and everything! Thank god for IPhones." He said.

"I don't know I just think once I'm away I should stay away. You'll be happier."

"I won't be happy without you."

"I'm sorry." I said.

"I know."
