"Fuck" I exclaimed as I felt the shaver catch on my skin. I quickly washed off the blood as I finished up shaving my legs. Ever since I woke up this morning I haven't been able to relax.

It's been 3 weeks since me and Cole's date and I haven't seen him since. We were all officially done with the semester but Cole was immediately sent over to Loughborough to get into training and also to settle in at his new apartment.

Cole didn't want to go into halls again so instead, he moved into an apartment that was 15 minutes from the campus. I haven't been able to visit him there yet with how busy he has been.

The reason why I am so nervous tonight is because it was his official sending off party tonight so Cole was coming back here to celebrate. When I manage to get Cole to facetime me he always seems to get dragged away by his team mates who tease him about always talking to his girl.

I wanted tonight to be special so that is why I am extremely nervous.

I moved into the room and grabbed my dress. I had spent hours shopping for a new dress for this party. I wanted to look good for myself and to impress Cole. My nerves about girls had simmered away slightly. At first I had seen pictures of Cole hanging out with a girl who was on the track team at that university.

But Cole had told her about my concerns and she called me directly to reassure me. She was Cole's personal angel making sure no girls were trying it on with my man. It also helps that she is in a committed relationship with her childhood beast friend.

The dress I chose was a green dress. When I first saw it on the hanger I hated it but the girl in the store practically forced me to try it on. The open cleavage was perfect for my breasts and the dress wrapped around my body perfectly. I was very excited to walk up to my boyfriend wearing this dress.

When I was finally ready I headed down the hall to find everyone there waiting. Everyone was excited about Cole's new adventure but they were also going to miss Cole.

Cole said that he would try to come over when he can and still hang with us but we all knew that it wasn't going to happen as much as we would like.

" took your time princess" Rylan said as he walked over. He wrapped his arm with mine as we followed everyone out to the cars. Rylan managed to once again find the perfect venue to have our party. It was a renovated basketball court that had plenty of space both inside and out. It was quite fitting really.

We managed to there in about 5 minutes. Rylan had turned the place into the perfect scene tonight. It enabled everyone to mingle with each other.

" he's not here yet" Cherry asked me as she slid up next to me. She wore a red tube top and black leather skirt. I was nursing my drink as I patiently waited for cole to arrive. I knew that he was bring Kelsie and her boyfriend tonight.

" not yet, but we only got here so I'm not worried" I said honestly as I watched people talk with each other. Kyle and Kim were lip locked already as I they finished their first round of shots.

" I'm actually going to miss that boy around here. He is definitely one of the good guys" she mumbles as she sips from her drink.

I was hearing that a lot. Cole was going to be missed greatly but everyone knew that he needed to get out there.

" yeah he is. It's hard to believe at one point he was a grade one asshole" I laughed as I thought about the first time I met him.

I think we have both matured since then.

" Looks like your asshole just arrived" she whispered as she turned me around.

My eyes instantly started to search the room before finally landing on Cole. People were greeting him and the two people with him but when Kyle made his way over and pointed his finger back at me. His fake smile dropped as he drank me in.
