*GRACE POV*

"That's the last of it." My dad said as he put the last few boxes in our moving truck. It's been 4 days since we found out we are moving and it was pretty sudden, and we had to go right away. I don't know what's going to happen. This move is literally ruining my life.

Right now I'm in my front yard with about 10 of my friends. I've said goodbye to everyone over the last few days and these people are my closest friends.

I hugged everybody, one by one, and with every person, more tears fell.

Jillian was also saying goodbye to her friends, and Carly actually is staying here. Her and Nash came up with the money for an apartment here, but we will take turns visiting every three weeks or so.

I got to the last few people in the small crowed. These people meant the most to me and it's really hard to let them go.

First I hugged Michael and I couldn't stop crying.

"Grace it's okay. We will talk a whole lot okay? I'll miss you." he whispered. When we pulled apart he had a single tear running down his face.

I moved to Natalie.... even though we really aren't on speaking terms, I'm still going to miss her because she was my best friend for as long as I can remember. We hugged and by now she was crying too.

"Grace I'm so sorry for everything. I don't deserve you as a friend but I still think of you and me as best friends. I'm going to miss you so much. We will talk everyday okay?" she said. I nodded.

"And I promise I won't try anything with Hayes." she chuckled.

"Okay I trust you. Thank you for being a great friend." I next walked up to Sammy, and I started sobbing so hard. Sammy is basically my everything.

"Sammy." I choked out.

"Grace... oh my god I never thought this day would come." she chuckled. "But I want you to know that you mean everything to me. You have always been by my side and I can't thank you enough for that. God I'm gonna miss you so much. I'll be crying all day... Dammit I'll be crying all week." she laughed and I laughed with her.

"Sammy I don't even know where to begin. We been through so much and you were always there for me. I know that no matter what happens we will always be best friends. I love you Sammy." I said hugging her once more.

"I love you too Grace." we pulled apart and I walked over to Carly. We said goodbyes and she promised she would be safe with everything and take good care of the baby. After her I talked to all of the magcon guys. Everyone was there and they all were either crying, or had tears in there eyes. Cam was the one actually crying because of Jillian.

Next was... Hayes.

His eyes were watery and I could tell he was fighting back tears. We both hugged each other so tight and I could hear his heart beat because my head was in his chest. We pulled apart after about 2 minutes....

He now had a tear sliding down his cheek and he grabbed both my hands in each of his.

"Grace.." he choked out.

"Hayes don't say anything, just kiss me." I said looking in his eyes. He leaned in and all I felt was sparks, like always.

After a few seconds we hugged again.

"Hayes I don't know what I'll do without you." I whispered.

"I'll be a mess." he slightly laughed. "But Grace," he started, his face turning more serious as I looked into his eyes that I always seemed to get lost in. "We've been through a lot and I can't thank you enough for everything. You're so beautiful and no matter how many times you deny it, just know what you're perfect to me. You are the best thing that's ever happened to me." he said. He looked at my hands and rubbed his thumbs over my hands.

"Hayes, thank you for, putting up with me." I laughed. "Thank you for showing me what love is... I love you Hayes Grier. And I always will."

"I love you too Grace. I'll love you till the end of time."

"This is our neighborhood." my mom told us as we drove by many houses. It was actually pretty nice neighborhood, with big-ish houses and big backyards.

I was especially surprised when we arrived at a big, nice house with a beautiful backyard by a creek. It was ours.

I had looked at the pictures online and everything but I didn't expect me to love it as much.

"Welcome to your new house!" my dad said, over-excitedly. Jillian and I looked at each other and smiled. We probably looked like shit right now because of all the crying but oh well.

We got out of the car and I immediately ran up the stairs to search for a room. Most of the rooms were painted with ugly colors in my opinion, but we could always repaint them. I went to the end of the hall and found a room with baby pink walls. It had one window, and it was above a window seat. I have always wanted a window seat so this is perfect.

---

All of our unpacking is done so Jillian and I are helping bring some of the lighter furniture in the house. The kitchen is all set up except for stuff on the walls because my mom can't stand the weird yellow color it was painted, so she is repainting it a neutral color as soon as she can.

I'm pretty pleased with our house. It's open but still cozy.

Once we were done bringing in all the furniture, Jillian and I were both planning out how our rooms will look. I decided to keep the color mine was because I love it.

My whole day was spent decorating my room and facetiming Carly, Sammy, Natalie, Michael, and Hayes. Hayes and I talked for hours and I already miss him...

*HAYES POV*

I've been a reck all day. All I've done is lay in bed staring at the ceiling. It's not like she died or anything, but it almost feels that way.... not having her around all the time and stuff like that. I just really miss her. Nash comforted me some, but he doesn't know what it's like. He gets to live with his girlfriend because she didn't move away.

"Sweetie?" I heard. My mom slowly walked in my room. She saw me laying on my back just staring at nothing and sighed.

"Yeah?" I asked.

"How you doin'?" She asked sitting on my bed next to me. I sat up to talk to her.

"Okay I guess."

"I know you miss her and for the record I do too. But you can't just mope around all day. Did you even leave your bed today?" she asked.

"I got up to get food from downstairs."

She rolled her eyes and laughed. "Hayes it will get better I promise. And I know you truly love her and I know she loves you, so you two will work it out." with that she left the room.
