I haven’t stopped crying since I left his parents house and well not really before that either. I sent him that song and that message because I needed him to know I still hadn’t given up. This has been the longest week of my life. And not having him by my side is hurting me so much. My anxiety hasn’t flared, I had a bout of nausea but that did pass. I ended up coming home to the girls after two days. I needed the time away from campus and being home in Willow Falls was nice. I visited them and I knew what they were telling me. That Kingston is my future and that I needed to fight enough for the both of us. Josie comes into my room “you have a visitor.” “Ok.” I don’t know who it is. I come out of my room and walk toward the door and that’s when his familiar scent, the feeling of home and his light wash jeans and white tee shirt fill my vision. “Hi.” he says in a nervous tone. It’s been 6 days since I last kissed him, held him, touched him. “Hi.” I s

We found our way back home in each other’s hearts. She is my everything and not following her on that balcony will ever be the biggest mistake of my life. It’s been a few days and we slowly fell back into the same routines and relationship. Telling her my confession about my brother’s death and why I blamed myself was freeing. A weight was lifted from my shoulders. We are currently at Glaze’s picking up our morning coffees which we enjoy as we walk through campus before we head toward class. The bright light and stale smell of the lecture hall hits as we enter the room for our developmental psychology class. We sit down in our usual spots, Em is still drinking her iced coffee even though she is wearing a matching set and then a puffer with a beanie she looks adorable but it’s a bit of an oxymoron. “I don’t why you are still drinking iced coffee in the middle of November?” I state with a laugh at just how cute she looks in a beanie. “I take forever to drink thing

She’s in my arms as I wake up like always, I’ve grown so used to it. It’s a habit going to sleep together, wake up with kisses, Em doing her routine, I cook breakfast for us and anyone else who’s home, we get ready for class or to study or we just head out and go on a date. I’m currently flipping pancakes clad in nothing but sweatpants when Austen in the same outfit as me comes out of Josie’s room rubbing his eyes. Josie’s been doing better lately which means Austen is at ease more now. He nods in my direction to say good morning not ready for words I see. “You two want some?” I offer pointing to the pancakes. “Yeah why not. You need help with anything.” “Yeah figuring out their fucking coffee machine, Em normally sets it up but she kind of had other things on her mind when we came home last night.” Meaning I distracted her after coming home from the library after working on our assignment for hours and the craving hit both of us. “Um yeah, it can’t be that hard. I’ve

He really is something special and the absolute best. This weekend just passed he took care of me after I said I wanted to drink which I did and then got drunk and I threw up multiple times. But he looked after me and watched over me. And now we are staying in after he planned this crazy date out because my period came this morning. It comes like clockwork around the 16th or 17th of every month. This time it was no different, it’s the 17th we go on break for Thanksgiving really soon. Kingston and I both talked and discussed with our families and decided to have a big one at my childhood home with both families so they can meet and get to know each other. I have mild cramps and a headache but you’d think I had something way worse because Kingston’s has been doting on me ever since I rang and cancelled our date. He went to the store on the way home from practice and picked me up my favourites. Ice cream, chocolate and pizza. He also must know what I use because he stocked

Coming home from Thanksgiving I felt lighter than I had done in forever and actually happy. Which I didn’t think nor really feel around this time of year. When we get back it’s a hustle of activity in the apartment and on campus. “Why did we sign up for this event again?” Sutton asks as we run around trying to pull together decorations for the end of semester ball at our sorority. “So it’s away from finals.” Addison responds. “Ok right, well now we are on decorations and the event is tomorrow.” Sutton chuckles. “Do we even have dresses?” Sutton continues. “I was just going to wear–” I begin to say that I was going to wear last year’s dress before everyone cut me off with a world of yeah no’s. “Why not?” “Because I got the dresses covered, we have matching ones. The silk slips that we love with a small twist. I had to design them for my end of year project and I named them after you girls. Figured since I had to design and bring them to life it would be a sham

6 MONTHS LATER a/n | mature content 18+ “Are you ready, nervous, excited?” She asks me as her eyes gleam sealing how proud she is. Em would be referring to my graduation tomorrow. 4 years of college finished. I’m ready for the real world although not much is changing. Except for a few things. It’s also Cole and Austen’s graduation, I can’t believe we all made it through mostly unscathed. We are moving out of the house we shared with the boys. The end of an era, the 5 of us. Not that we won’t see them, because we will. I mean my girlfriend still goes here and we are still brothers. Austen and I have a plan. Something we hope to convince both girls to do as they are best friends too, so I’m not sure we will need to do much convincing. It’s been around 10 months since Em and I finally stopped ignoring our chemistry and desire and looked up to find something we didn’t know we needed but now we can’t live without. We’ve seen many stars, watched grey’

“Are we actually doing this?” I ask as we lay in bed. I’m tucked against King’s chest as his arm wraps around my shoulder. “Well yeah, you said yes and so did Josie.” He whispers against my forehead. “I can’t believe it.” “You better. Since packing starts tomorrow.” I knew one day I would move out of this apartment but what if it’s too soon. It’s a comfort thing, my sanctuary and escape but I will live in the same room as my boyfriend who I love but with my anxiety sometimes I need to be alone. I would be giving that up but think of all the positives and there are many. He basically lives with me anyway, he has a drawer, we bought a bigger desk so we could both sit at it, his toothbrush has a place on my counter, his body wash lives in my shower. “It’s too early isn’t it?” Kingston questions pulling me from my thoughts. “What?” “Em we’ve been together for nearly a year, I can see the thoughts not good ones ticking away in your mind.” “I’ll just miss h

I find another fucking sweat set. How many does my girl have? We’ve been unpacking all the boxes in our room. There was only around 13. I picked Em up this morning with coffee in hand which she greeted with a smile and kiss. We transported all her boxes down into the apartment where mine had been for awhile now. This apartment is a happy medium between Em’s comfort zone and being outside of what she’s used to. This is a big step for any couple but with Em’s anxiety and what she’s used to it’s a bit harder. We have no doubts and I know that but it could get hard but we’re ready for anything. I’m with her through it all. Because it is a privilege to love Emerson, really. I lucked out, honestly. When I caught the brunette fiery girl outside the rink I was hit with overwhelming desire, lust and adoration and the sensation to want to know everything about this girl. And know I have and I live it everyday experiencing her love my heart beats two times faster just at the thought.
