I walk into the apartment laughing at a funny joke Lexi had told me. While we were out having coffee, I decided to call Chris and tell him the news. He was so happy and was telling me that they are on holiday break right now so I could stay with him since he has an extra bedroom and he would be able to help me move.

I honestly didn't have that much stuff anyway. Just my suitcase with clothes I had brought from Chicago and some other things I bought here.
As I make my way to my room, I notice a dark figure sitting in the living room. I approach the figure and notice it's Dylan sitting on the couch with his head down holding some papers.

"Hey, why are you sitting in the dark?" I ask as I get closer, I notice he is holding my acceptance letter from Otis in LA

"When were you planning on telling me about this?" He asks as he shows me the papers standing up

"Dylan I was going to" I say but he cuts me off

"Exactly when? Were you just planning on moving to LA and telling me your plans when you got there? Exactly when Mia?"

"Why were you in my room?" I ask him

"That's not the point!" He yells

"No it is Dylan. Why were you in my room? Don't I deserve some privacy?" I ask him quite annoyed

"Why have you been lying to me?" He asks

"Oh I don't know? Maybe I just Picked up that habit after learning from you!" I yell back

"Mia I just don't understand why I wasn't involved in this? In your decision makings?Why the hell are you even going to college?" He asks

"What do you mean? I want to have a career! I want to study I'm only 18!" I answer confused at his stupid question

"Why do you want a career?! You don't need to do anything! You have me! I can supply for a whole lifetime! You don't need to work or study or do anything! I'll give you everything!" He says as he approaches me

"Dylan that's not the point! I want to have MY own career! MY own job! MY own life!"

"Why? Why go through the struggle? Do you even think you'll make it anywhere?" He asks as he throws the papers onto the couch

"So what, your calling me dumb?" I ask him as I grab the papers and cross my arms

"No but I just don't understand how you can just forget about everything and move to LA! What about us?" He asks

I let out a sigh,
"Dylan is there even an 'us' anymore? Ever since the night of the accident, nothing is going back to normal and I don't think I can do this anymore Dylan" I say

"Mia-" I cut him off

"Dylan I want to move to LA! Study, have my own career and my own REAL job! I want to do this for ME and not just live under YOU!" I say

"But Mia, I love you! You can't just leave" he says and he holds my hands and carcasses my cheek

"Dylan I love you too" I say, I put my hand at the back of his neck

"But I don't think we're going anywhere" I say and look down

We stay like this for a moment until he interrupts the silence

"When are you leaving?" He asks in almost a whisper

I meet his gaze and answer
"I think it's best if I leave now"

I was planning on just going to a hotel to stay the night and have some time to think. Think everything over

He pushes some hair away from my face and leans in for a kiss. I feel his warm lips on my own and kiss him back. It was such a passionate kiss. It was our last kiss.
We were saying goodbye.  
We finally disconnect and I feel a small tear go down my cheek.
"I love you Mia" I hear him say in a whisper
"I love you too" I answer back with a small smile and caress his cheek before I walk away to get my things.

And that was the last time I saw Dylan.
