It Will Always Be You

Chapter 007

(Anna's POV)

"SHIT! AG WAKE UP WE OVER SLEPT!" I wake up to Mia yelling and I look at the time on my phone. It is already 9am, they were supposed to leave at 7am. At first I am confused why the bed is heavy on the other side and then I remember Ag and I fell asleep with each other last night. I feel a smile creep up on my face, I never thought I could be this happy. "Well I can say I wasn't expecting to see Ag sleeping over there," Mia says with a smirk on her face, "you better tell me everything later." I just laugh and try to wake Ag up, she is usually never this deep of a sleeper which kinda of scares me for a second that she isn't waking up. But then Mia comes over and smacks her in the butt and yells "YO GET UP" she instantly shoots up from the bed. "Dude what the hell was that for the alarms haven't even gone off yet." Ag says clearly annoyed. "Well considering it is 9 I am guessing you forgot to set the alarm last night, we gotta get going." Mia says while finishing getting ready and packing up the rest of her stuff. "Oh shit." Ag says as she moves fast and does the same thing Mia is.

Soon they are all packed up and getting ready to leave. We pack up Mia's car and start to say their goodbyes. "Thank you for everything Mrs. Shumate and Phil." Ag says as she says goodbye to my parents. "Oh don't be silly honey I have told you before call me Elizabeth and give me a hug," My mom says as she pulls Ag in for a hug, "come back soon. Okay?" "I definitely will!" Ag says with a big smile on her face. "As much as I wish we could stay here we really do need to get going" Mia says obviously stressed about the time. So the three of us head out to the car to say goodbye one more time. We are standing near the trunk because Ag had one more bag to throw in the car. I walk over to Mia and give her a hug goodbye, "thank you for coming I am going to miss you so much." I say trying not to tear up. "Like I said last night I will see you again soon I promise, plus we can still facetime all the time," Mia says while letting go, "I'll let you guys say goodbye" and turns and heads to the drivers seat. I turn around and look at Ag who has her head down and is kicking rocks. I walk over to her and don't say anything but wrap my arm around her torso. She is so much taller than me my head rests perfectly on her chest. 

She wraps her arms around me and we just stand there in silence for a couple seconds I start to cry and she can tell. "Hey don't cry I will be back in a month for your graduation party, I wouldn't miss it for the world you know that right?" Ag asks. "I know I am just scared that we are going to drift away again, I don't want to lose you." I say looking up at her. "I am not going anywhere, it's you and me Anna." She says and kisses me on the head. I look up at her again and stand on my tippy toes and give her a quick kiss, not caring who sees. "Okay you need to leave now otherwise I will never let you go." I say letting go of her. "Okay, I'll see you soon bub." Ag says as she turns around and heads to the car. She turns around and gives me one more smile and gets in the car and they start to drive away. As soon as I see the car turn the corner I feel my happiness leave with it. I immediately start crying and break down right there in my yard. My mom comes running out to me and gives me a hug. I am sobbing and am trying to talk, but can't get anything out. "I know honey I know, she will be back soon." My mom says while rubbing my back and walking inside with me.

(Ag's POV)

As soon as I leave Anna I feel like part of me has been ripped out of my chest. I just look out the window not really wanting to talk to anyone, I keep sniffling and trying not to cry or make it obvious to Mia that I am upset. "I know you are upset you don't need to hide it from me" Mia says which makes me turn around and face her. "I just hate seeing her so upset, I wish we could have stayed for just a little longer." I say. "I get that, so it's more than a friend crush isn't it?" She asks referring to our conversation we had on the way to Anna. "Yea it is way more than that, the night you went to Facetime Lyric I told her how I felt and last night she told me she felt the exact same way. And then we were laying there watching the movie and I couldn't stop looking at her and she said  "you know I can feel you looking at me. Is there something I can help you with?" And then I said "Actually there is something," and she said "What is it?" and then I said "I really want to kiss you right now," and then she said "So do it then." Bro when I tell you I have never felt a kiss like that before it was magical. I have never felt this intense of a connection with anyone else before. And I haven't stopped thinking about it since it happened." I explain with a dorky smile on my face.

"Wow you are such a simp," Mia says, "but seriously I am happy for you. You deserve to be happy more than anyone else and you two really are perfect for each other." I smile knowing I have approval from my best friend. I decide make a tiktok about how much I miss boon. I decide to use a sad sound and caption it "I already miss my boon and it has only been 20 minutes." Of course the fan base goes crazy. "Omg my boon👉🏻👈🏻" "Ship is sailing" "SO cute" "Wait are they dating" commenting all kinds of things. I laugh at how crazy they can be sometimes, but I know everything I have I owe to them. I am scrolling through the comments when I get a text from Anna.

Anna Boon Sheriff Shumate

I miss you come back

Don't tempt me I will 

Pretty pleaseeeeeee

Stopppp you're killing me

I just wish we had more time and didn't wait so long

I know bub, but I will be back sooner than you think

And I will give you all the hugs and kithes in the world

Promise?

I promise bub

Yea Mia is right I am such a simp for this girl, but what can I say she has my heart wrapped around her finger. This is going to be the longest month of my life I think to myself while scrolling through tiktok. The drive home actually goes pretty fast because before I know it we are at my house and my mom is standing in the driveway waving her hands all excited that I am home. She is so cute, I was only gone for like five days. Sometimes I do feel guilty leaving her home alone, but she is the one that is always telling me to get out there and live my life because I only get one life. I grab all my stuff from Mia's car and thank her one last time for coming with me and driving all the way up there. Once inside my mom starts bombarding me with a million questions, "How was your trip? Did you girls have fun? What did you do? Did you tell Anna I said hi?" "Woah woah slow down Mom I just walked in the door." I said laughing at how excited she is. "Sorry dear I just know how excited you were for this trip and how long you have been wanting to go see Anna so I just want to know everything." She says with a big smile on her face. Almost like she already knows what happened but is waiting for me to tell her. "Well we hung out at her house a lot, I met some of her friends from high school and her soccer team, we went to dinner at her Grandmothers house one night which was really nice, oh and her younger brother Brandon tried to teach me how to play video games." I laughed thinking about how frustrated he was getting when I didn't understand something. "It sounds like you had a great trip sweetie! You seem really happy, I'm glad you found someone who makes you this happy." She says while rubbing my arm. "Wait what do you mean?" I ask confused. "AnnaGrace I am your mother I know when someone is more than a friend, you know I don't care. I just want you to be happy and she clearly makes you happier than anyone else ever has. And I can't wait to meet her." My mom says while pulling me in for a hug. Wow even my mom notices how special Anna is.
