"The college I wanna go to...its by the water, ya know? Like this. Its on a cliff almost, over the sea.", says Gabriel as we drive. "Undercover Martyn" by the Two Door Cinema Club sounds through the speakers and his window is cracked slightly and the car smells like the sea air. I'm on a rush. Or maybe I'm on some type of high or something. I don't know exactly but I know I feel good. I haven't felt good in a while.
"That sounds great.", I say, yelling over the wind and the music.
"Sounds. But is it?"
"What do you mean?"
He pulls into the parking lot of the beach. "I don't like the idea. A college on a cliff. It makes me uneasy. Even by the water. It scares me. You know how stressed college kids get."
I feel a pang in my heart. I know what he's trying to say.
"but I try not to think about that too much. I have a tendency of over thinking things."
"We're teenagers. I think we all do.", I say.
"You're right. We all have something we over think a little too much."
"Mine is Aimee.", I say quietly.
He doesn't say anything. He stares out at the waves.
"It's okay. I'm obsessed. I need to let her go. I know. And I'm trying...I really am. It's just hard to know I'm gonna graduate without her next month."
