I woke up the next morning at 10 am with a headache. I took the covers off my body and walked down stairs to the kitchen cabinet to get some Advil. "Morning I made breakfast." My mom said I mumbled an okay back and took 2 pills and drank some water. "Is it okay if Chase comes over today?" I asked "Sure" was her reply

"Umm mom?" I said.

"Yes honey?"

"When are we leaving to North Carolina?" I asked my voice getting weak.

"On Friday so in 4 days" she replied

I nodded my head and went upstairs. I sat on my bed and grabbed my phone to text Chase to come over.

I became so worried on what I was going to tell him. I'm going to miss him so much. He's my best friend he's basically my brother we grew up together. I can't imagine life without him. He helped me get through everything my breakup with my ex Connor, the divorce, & when my dog of 2 years ran away. That was a pretty sad day especially since he ran to the neighbors house and I didn't have the heart to take him back because their daughter Alice loved him.

I can't just leave Chase I helped him through some pretty rough patches too. Especially when his wicked girlfriend of a year Christine cheated on him. I felt like scratching her eyes out that day. My thoughts were interrupted by the doorbell. I jumped off my bed and ran down the stairs. "I'll get it!" I yelled to my mom

I was so distracted I missed a step and tumbled all the way down. I got up rubbing my head and then the bell rang again. "Alright alright" I said as I opened the door grumpy. Chase was laughing when I opened the door I bet he heard me fall down. "Whatever" I mumbled. I looked down and saw that he was holding a pink blouse in his hands and I started laughing. "Shut up" he said rolling his eyes.

"Can you just give this to your mom?" He asked looking around

"No you can do it yourself." I said teasingly

"Fine where's your mom at?" He asked stretching out the e

"Kitchen" he went to go give my mom her shirt back from yesterday. I followed him to the kitchen. "Hey Ms.Green here's your shirt back." He said scratching the back of his neck

"Um thanks Chase" my mom said staring at Chase awkwardly.

"Oh and don't worry I washed it." He said smiling wide

"Oh ok then" she replied

"We're gonna be in my room bye." I said dragging Chase up the stairs by his arm

"What now?" Chase asked

"Wanna watch a movie?" I asked

"Sure" he replied.

I grabbed the movie "Safe Haven" , put it in, and went to sit down on the bed. "Ugh not this movie." Chase whined

"But I love this movie" I said sticking out my bottom lip.

"Fine" Chase said flicking my head.

I made my self comfortable, grabbed a blanket, and sat next to Chase. Chase wrapped his arm around while we watched the movie. I couldn't concentrate half the time because Chase kept throwing popcorn at me. These little things is what I'm gonna miss most just having lazy days with him. It's gonna break my heart to have to tell him.

When the movie ended I turned off the tv and faced him. He looked at me confused. "I have to tell you something" I said looking down.

He put his finger under my chin for I could meet his eyes. "What is it?"

"My mom got a promotion and she's gonna run her own hotel." I said

"What, that's great!" He said excitedly

"Yea but the hotels in North Carolina...." I say trailing off

"Wait you aren't moving are you?" He said looking at me sadly

I didn't answer I just looked down. He grabbed my face and looked at me. "It's alright we can make this work Amber I'm not gonna give up our friendship just like that. We'll FaceTime at least once a week and text everyday. It will be okay." He said kissing my forehead

"Promise?" I managed to say a tear rolling down my cheek

"Promise." Chase said holding me tight
