Hayden's P. O. V. I poured my heart out to Millie once I found out she would be leaving for college. It is not because I wanted her to change her mind but to let her know that I am hers whether she stays or leaves. I couldn't let her go without her knowing how I felt about her for all these years. This doesn't mean I am okay with her leaving. I wish she would stay here with me, but I couldn't be the one to hold her back. I knew she had dreams and aspirations. I couldn't get in the way of her dreams. She meant too much to me. Her eyes were full of tears as I told her, and I immediately regretted it. Maybe I shouldn't have told her. Now she will feel guilty and that was the last thing I wanted. I wanted her to be excited about her future, but shit, I made her cry instead. "Millie, what's wrong?" I asked and stroked her hair gently. "You should've told me how you felt sooner. You are so dumb," her voice shook. "Why did you let me talk about how much I li

Hayden P. O. V. I laughed when I saw the look on her face when I told her I would do something to her. Of course, I was only messing with her, but I guess she took it seriously. She is so freaking adorable. She will be leaving soon, so I decided to knock on her window for the last time, I knew how much she hated it, but she never said no. Maybe she secretly loved it. "You'll never stop coming in this way, are you?" she said, then opened the window. "The front door is just sitting there, being unused," she added. I stepped inside and smirked. "Nope," I said. I gently pressed my lips on hers and kissed her lips. I pulled apart to take a breath, but something in her eyes drew me back to her again. Every time I kissed her, my brain lit on fire, and warmth spread through my entire body. When we broke apart again, she rested her head on my chest to gather some air. I could smell her floral shampoo. I blame her sweet scent for making me hormonal and crazy.

Millie's P.O.V. "Where did you find this!" Alison claimed as she held up the sparkly lamp in front of my face. "At the thrift store near my house?" I said. "This is ugly!" she laughed. I giggled. "It is not!" It has been three weeks since I moved into my university dorm. Alison and I decided to become roommates because...why wouldn't we? Hello! We are best friends! It took us a few days to get settled in and sign up for the classes. We had different majors, so most of our classes were not the same, but it was better than nothing. As far as Hayden and I were concerned, we are still together. He texts and calls me every day, but I still miss him so much. It was especially hard for me to leave after the night I lost my virginity to him. But I had no regrets. It made me feel like I was truly his. I touched my necklace, which made me feel a sense of comfort. "Come on. We are going to be late," Alison said. "Where are we goin

Millie's P.O.V. Alison and I went to meet Kevin and Ellie at the park. Four of us had been hanging out a lot since the party. It had been a month since I moved in here. I hadn't had much free time since I was too busy with my classes. Ellie brought her dog with her. She started to run around with him. Alison joined in. I was no way to do any type of physical activity, so I decided to hang out on the swing. "Need some company?" Kevin asked and sat on the swing next to me. "Hey, Kevin," I smiled. "I like hanging out with you. I think you are really cool," Kevin said. "Thanks," I said shyly. "I also think you are gorgeous and...I was wondering if you would like to go out with me sometimes?" he asked. I was caught off guard. Does Kevin like me? "Um...I'm sorry, I can't. I have a boyfriend," I let out a nervous chuckle. Disappointment and shock flickered in his eyes. "You do? How come I never seen him?"

Hayden's P.O.V. It has been more than a month since I saw Millie. We hardly talked anymore since she was busy with her college life, and I was busy with mine. But not seeing her and hearing her voice every day was driving me crazy. I've decided it was time to pay her a little visit. Since I was taking mainly online classes, it wasn't hard for me to travel. I saved up enough money so I could buy the plane tickets and the hotel room. I didn't tell her about my plan. I wanted to surprise her. I hope she doesn't get annoyed by my spontaneous act. Was I crossing some type of boundary by showing up at her doorstep? Oh well, too late to think about that since I already bought tickets. Everything went smoothly, and I finally arrived in New York. Alison had already texted me the address of her dorm, so I headed there. I sent Millie a vague text about how I wanted to tell her something. Just as I was about to knock, I heard noises coming from the inside. It sou
