Chapter thirty three - University

It was now the third week after New Year. I've completed one of my new year's resolutions; the one of training with Tommy, though I have to add that training with Tom is distracting.

Happily I packed up my luggage. I had received news that I had been accepted to the University of London. I was ecstatic. I could do online classes but I had to attend classes during the last semester. I had just received the news and I couldn't wait to tell Tom.

Tom arrived and we began placing my luggage into his car. It was sad, I was going to be away from Tom for a few weeks. He was going to New York, and I was going to be in Kingston.

We drove to the airport. And just as Tom found a parking spot I let it all out.

"I've been accepted." I say and Tom smiles brightly.

"I knew you could do it. It's great news babe?" Tom asks.

"Thanks." I say and shyly smile.

We remove my bags from the bag of the car and grab them into the airport and await for my flight to be called. I stared at all of the aircrafts in amazement.

"So, the University of London?" Tom asks.

"Yeah, it's been a dream if mine to attend. I'm able to do online classes for the first few semesters but the last semester I have to attend class." I tell him smiling like a child who just walked into a candy store.

"Awe, you are so cute. And smart." Tom added and pecks my lips.

"Thanks." I say.

We then get bored and I challenge Tom to a game of Subway Surfers. There was not prize, except bragging rights. Tom ended up winning and I groaned, I was so close to his score, I missed it by 6 coins.

"Flight D14 to London now boarding." The voice over the intercom said.

Tom and I stood up.

"Bye love." I say and kiss his cheek and walk off.

But Tom grabs onto my wrist pulling me back and kissing me. I placed my arms around his neck and tilted my head a bit. There was so much passion and I melted in his arms.

A minute or two or three we pulled back, both of us breathless. I felt the heat rise to my cheeks, I was blushing. There was so much people in the airport.

"You weren't going to leave without kissing me goodbye." Tom says and I smile as he caresses my cheek.

"I guess you weren't gonna let me." I say and look at him. When I looked into his eyes, I saw a glimpse of love and safety. I smiled.

"Last call for flight D14 to London. Now boarding at Gate 3." The person announces over the intercom one last time.

"Can't I make you stay?" Tom asks.

"I'd love that but I need to go home." I tell him.

"I love you. I love you Alana Giselle Harper Montez. I've fallen in love with you." Tom says and my heart begins leaping and tries grabbing his shirt.

"I love you too, Tommy." I say and I hug him and he hugs back.

I inhale his scent one last time for the next few weeks. I smile as I whisper into his ear.

"I hope you don't mind but I stole a hoodie of yours." I say and bite down on my bottom lip and pull away.

"I don't mind, it most probably looks better on you." Tom says.

"Whatever you think babe. I need to go before I miss my flight. Bye, I love you." I say and kiss his cheek but cheekily he turns his head and i kiss his lips.

I pull away and he smirks and roll my eyes at him and then walk through gate 3 and wave to Tom. Once he's out of sight I run to get in time to board my flight.

I take my seat next to a middle aged woman and a 6 year old girl with two ponytails. I feel my phone vibrate. I take it out if my jeans and see a text from Tom.

ooooooooooooooooooo

I rolled my eyes at Tom's text and I turned off my phone and placed it back into my pant's pocket. Off to London. Home, here I come.

My nerves began, I began worrying about work. I had built up my confidence to go up to Mr West and hand him my resignation. I've got this, he doesn't scare me. Who the hell am I trying to trick here? He scares the hell out if me.

Hopefully I don't disappoint him by doing this. He's been a father figure in my life for as long as I can remember. He was like my second dad. Let's think of something happier...
