IVY'S POV
*today is the day that i go back to college, aka los angeles. i wake up and immediately close my eyes, not wanting to face that i leave joey today. he wraps his arms around me and kisses my forehead. i hold onto him and sigh quietly. he plays with my hair and rub his back, knowing he was having just as hard time as i was.*
ivy- let's just make today a good day, okay baby?
joey- deal but are we allowed to cry later tonight?
ivy- yeah. there's no way that i won't
*i giggle and stand up, pulling joey with me. i hop onto his back and he carries me to the kitchen.*
joey- i say we make pancakes for breakfast
ivy- i say yes because they sound delicious
*he laughs at my comment as he starts getting ingredients out and i giggle while helping him. i pour the ingredients into a bowl and start mixing them all together. i shut my eyes quickly as i feel powder go all over my face. i wipe my eyes and look at joey. he's bending over, laughing hysterically and i crack an egg on his head. his jaw drops as he looks at me and soon enough, we are having a food fight in his kitchen. i grab his wrist just before he cracks an egg on my head and i make him drop it in the sink. i start making the pancakes and he hugs me from behind. he leaves small kisses all over my shoulder and neck, causing me to blush.*
ivy- yes joey?
joey- i love youu
ivy- i love you tooo
joey- and i'm sorry for making a mess
ivy- i helped make it, don't apologize love
*i turn around in his arms and hand him his chocolate chip pancakes. he looks at them as he starts to drool and i wipe his chin while laughing. he turns red from embarrassment and i kiss his cheek.*
ivy- go eat, i'll be over there in a second
joey- okay princess
*he kisses my head and i finish making my pancake. i turn off the stove and walk over to him, sitting next to him. he lifts my leg with his hand and puts it on his lap. i giggle and pour syrup all over my pancake. joey does the same and we start eating. i tickle his stomach when he tries to drink some of his water and he spits it out all over the floor. i start laughing harder than ever before and he throws me over his shoulder, carrying me to the bathroom. he sets me down in the bathtub and i look at him. he turns on the water, making sure it gets all over me. my jaw drops and i pull him into the shower with me. he looks at me and cups my face, connecting our lips. i kiss back and wrap my arms around his neck. i deepen the kiss and we have a small makeout session in the shower in our clothes, covered in pancake mix.*
JOEY'S POV
*ivy and i spent the day cleaning the kitchen, cuddling, watching movies, and eating food. i'm currently helping her pack her suitcase because we need to leave for the airport in 15 minutes. i take the sweatshirt she brought out of her suitcase and hand her another one. she looks at me confused.*
joey- smell it baby
ivy- it smells like you
joey- what did the other one smell like?
ivy- not you anymore
joey- there's the reason you have a new one. plus the new one smells like you
*she kisses my cheek and pulls the hoodie over her head. i zip her suitcase up and carry it to the car. she gets in the passenger seat and curls into a ball. i put her suitcase in the trunk and get in the driver's seat. i start the car and intertwine our fingers. she holds my hand tightly and close to her as i drive.*
joey- we're going to be okay baby..
ivy- i know.. i just don't want to leave anymore..
joey- 2 more weeks.. then we don't have to leave each other anymore..
*she nods but she has no idea why i said that. yes we will be done with college but i'm planning on asking her something. i hear her sniffle and i tear up. i was trying to hold mine in till the airport but i couldn't. i wipe my tears and ivy leans on my arms. i feel her tears hit my arms and i lean over, kissing her forehead.*
joey- i love you princess..
ivy- i love you more..
joey- well, we are here..
ivy- already..?
joey- i know baby, i know..
*i wipe my eyes and we both get out of the car. i grab her suitcase out of the back and i hold her hand. she intertwines our fingers and i roll her suitcase into the airport with us. we stand in line to check in her bag and i rub her back constantly while quiet whimpers leave both of our mouths from crying. after 10 minutes, she checks her bags in and i walk her over to the escalators that lead to security. i wrap my arms around her petite body tightly and she wraps her arms around my torso just as tight. i start crying harder along with ivy and i wipe her tears. she wipes mine and i kiss her softly. she kisses back, resting her hands on mine.*
joey- baby, you need to go so you don't miss your flight..
ivy- i want to miss it..
joey- i know you do but you have to start studying for exams so we can be done with college and start working, okay..?
*she nods and looks up at me. i wipe under her eyes and kiss her forehead one last time. she walks towards the escalators and our hands split. i watch her go up and i'm hoping she doesn't look back because then she will turn around. thankfully, she keeps on walking and i walk back out to the car. i get in the car and start crying. i wipe my eyes and connect my phone to the aux. i start playing our song and cry as i drive back to my dorm.*
