Just a story that has been floating around in my head and I thought you all would like to hear it:)
Disclaimer: Not owned by the one and only me.
"I've gotta get home. Bye babe." I said as I stood up from my bean bag and walked over to Sam to give her a good bye kiss. "My mom texted me and said she needs me home now."
"D'awwww! Is mommy getting worried about her Freddie-bear?" Sam joked.
"Yes." I said with a smile. "See ya Carly." I said turning around once more before walking to the studio door and down the stairs and hearing a "Bye Freddie!" yelled as a response behind me.
After getting down the stairs I looked in to the kitchen to see Spencer cooking.
"See ya, Spence." I said to him.
"Later kiddo!" he shouted.
I walked out the door and across the hall. I wonder why my mother wanted me so badly?
As soon as I had walked into the living room she was on me.
"Freddie!" she screamed in what looked like excitement.
"Mom, whats wrong?" I asked in concern.
"No, no Freddie. It's what's right!" she exclaimed.
She handed me an envelope that had been previously opened but was packed with papers.
I read the return address. Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
I ripped the papers out of it in excitement and slight annoyance that she had opened it without me.
It was an acceptance letter.
I was frozen, from head to toe. All of those years never getting below a B+, never missing a day of High School, putting up with everyone (including Sam, my girlfriend since junior year) calling me a nerd, had paid off. Putting up with the Teachers, other students, my mom... it had all paid off.
All of my dreams were coming true. I got into the school I had been dreaming about going to since I was seven, I graduated high school top of my class, I had my dream girl...
Oh my God, Sam.
I cant just leave her. We knew that this was a possibility.
That we may have to go to school in to completely different places.
We knew this fact but we put it on the back burner.
We were enjoying the time we have together without clouding it with what ifs.
How am I going to tell her? I'm being torn.
This has been my dream since before I could comprehend what a dream was.
She's... the love of my life, my everything.
If I move away I wont be able to hear her beautiful voice every second of my day.
I'll miss her spunky personality, her eating habits, the twinkle that always seems to be there in her eyes besides the times that she shows her real self to me.
The times when she cries and doesn't care if I see or not, when all she needs is a hug.
All of those moments we have spent together, all of the months that it took for me to gather up the courage to ask Sam Puckett out on a date.
All of these moments, all of them will mean nothing.
They will always be there.
They will always be what I could have had if I had stayed, but they will mean nothing.
Sure we can remember back to when, but I want those memories to stay reality.
I've made up my mind.
My mother seemed to see the change in my expression. The smile that had slowly slid from my face.
"Freddie, whats wrong?" she asked.
"Sam." I whispered.
"Oh Freddie!" she said hugging me. "I will support what ever choice you make. Stay or go it's your choice. But if you do decide to stay, you are still going to collage." she said to me.
I looked her in the eye, "Thanks mom." she was letting her little boy grow up.
She let me out of the hug and placed her hand on my cheek. "Go get her Freddie."
I turned around to go to the door again. I opened it and found Sam standing at the elevator.
"Sam." I said.
She turned around at the sound of my voice with a smile. "Hey Freddie, I thought you had to be at home?"
"Yeah, my mom just wanted to give me some news..." I said, letting my sentence trail off.
"Well, what did she have to say?" she asked, taking a step closer to me.
"Sam... I got into MIT." I said, not knowing how she would react.
She ran up to me with open arms and gave me a hug. "Oh my gosh Freddie, thats so exciting!"
When she noticed I wasn't returning the hug, she pulled away with a worried face. "What goes on?" she asked.
"... I'm not going."
I know I could have forced this all into a one shot but I'm tired with it being 1:23 in the morning right now and this was a great place to stop the chapter. As Always, R&R, Byeeeeee:)
