We face tomorrow as we say goodbye to yesterday
A chapter ending but the stories only just begun
A page is turning for everyone
MILEY'S POV
Today, I'm gonna be moving to my dorm at Oxford University for my freshman year in college.
I gathered all the important stuff I haven't packed and placed it on my box. I took a last glance around my room and sighed as I walked out of it.
My mom, dad, and sister were waiting in the living room when I got there.
"Are you ready, Miles?"
"Yeah."
Taylor, my older sister walked up to me and hugged me. Taylor is like my best friend in the whole world. She's been there for me when I was bullied, when I needed someone to tutor me, when I needed someone to talk to. Taylor is so perfect, I admire her for everything she does, she's got the beauty and brains and even though I envy her, I love her from the bottom of my heart. Unlike me, Taylor is taller, has pretty blonde hair, blue eyes, and mesmerizing smile that blows every guys' mind away. I always envied her, but like any other good sister would do, Taylor kept telling me that we're just the same, both beautiful inside and out.
"I can't believe my baby sister is going to College!"
We both pulled apart and I smiled at Taylor. She's gonna be a junior in Cambridge University this coming school year, she has good grades, nice boyfriend; she has everything. This is why I envy her.
"Cmon girls, we have to go now, we don't want to be stuck in traffic."
Dad pushed us both towards our car. Tay and I sat on the backseat and mom sat on the front seat. My mom and dad own a business that has to do with electronic devices that was pretty popular here in our country; they really worked hard for it so that Taylor and I could go to the College we both dreamed of.
So now, we're going to Oxford, they are going to check the dorm room and everything before the semester starts.
We got into Oxford somewhere between eleven in the morning and they helped me bring my bags and boxes in my dorm room. We got inside and I saw a brunette reading a magazine on the other bed. She immediately got up and planted a smile on her face.
"Hello, I'm Demi! You must be my roommate!"
"Yes, I'm Miley."
We shook hands and I moved a little to the side to introduce my family.
"Well, Demi, here's my sister Taylor, my mom, and my dad."
"Hello Demi, nice to meet you."
Mom shook Demi's hand and started shooting some questions.
"Where are you from, Demi?"
"Oh, our house is just an hour away from here and I graduated in Klein High school."
"I've heard about that school, one of the top high schools."
Mom and Demi chatted for a while. Taylor hugged me again tight.
"Oh Miles, I'm gonna miss you so much. You gotta call and text me."
"I will, Tay."
I pulled away and hugged my dad.
"I can't believe my baby girl is going to college."
"Dad..."
Dad placed a fatherly kiss on my forehead before he let go of me. Mom had walked up to me and hugged me too.
"You be a good girl and study hard, okay? And take care of yourself; I don't want you getting sick, okay?"
"Yes, mom."
She placed a kiss on top of my head and few minutes later, they left the room. Thank God!
I grabbed my luggage and proceeded to my closet. I soon saw Demi gathering my clothes from my bag and placing them in my closet just like what I was doing.
"I'm glad to help. I'm quite happy you came here already. It's really boring here."
"Thank you"
"So, did you graduate with honors?"
"Yeah, first actually."
I blushed at the confession. Some people might find graduating with a first honor is so geeky that I actually considered not to say it to anyone, but something made me say it to Demi because I have this sense that she's like me too.
"Oh my God, me too!"
"Really?"
She smiled wide and I found her smile laughable since its rare and she have the biggest smile I've ever seen.
"Why are you smiling like that?"
Without wearing off her smile she said,
"It's my normal smile, you gotta get used to it."
I laughed at her little antics. Gotta love Demi.
"You're so funny. I think we're gonna be good friends."
"I do too! What degree program are you taking?"
"I'm taking Major in Psychology, how about you?"
"Uh, me too! No wonder we're roommates!"
"May I see your schedule?"
"Sure!"
I walked to the bed where my hand bag was atop of, and I searched for my Certificate of registration to check my schedule. I found it and gave it to Demi who already has hers in her hand. She read and compared our schedules.
"Oh my God, we have the same schedule!"
"That's good to know! At least I'll have someone I know in my classes."
"Me too, I feel so lucky right now. I'm pretty scared I won't meet great friends."
"Oh, believe me, me too."
"So, do you think we're classmates with his royal highness, the prince?"
"Uh, I don't know. I'm not that head over heels with him."
"Really? Prince Nicholas is like, the most gorgeous man in the planet!"
"Don't get me wrong, yeah I have a crush on him, but he's so hard to reach. He's a prince. I bet he is gonna act bratty or snobbish or something like that."
"Okay, but I'll still keep my hopes up on him."
Demi chuckled and I rolled my eyes. Sure, Prince Nicholas is the most gorgeous thing in the planet. Who am I kidding? There is no way he'd waste his time hanging out with boring me, so why bother?
NICK'S POV
Finally, I'm going to be free at last! No bodyguards, well I have at least two but they won't be needed inside the campus. They would only show when I need them, for example; if I need to do some groceries. I'm gonna be going to Oxford University for college. One thing I don't like is leaving my mom. I'm a momma's boy and I love her so much. I hugged my mom tight.
"Oh my little prince is growing up so fast."
"I'm sorry I have to leave, mom."
"It's okay, dear. Study hard and come home quick on sembreak. I'm gonna miss you so much."
"Me too, I'm gonna call you every day, though."
Mom kissed my forehead and I walked towards dad. He stuck his hand out for me to shake; I could use a hug but my dad, Prince Anthony isn't that kind of person. I shook his hand and smiled warmly.
"I already made sure everything's fine. Behave well, okay? Have a safe flight, son."
He patted my back as he led me to the helicopter. I climbed in and sat on the passenger seat and buckled my seatbelt. I waved bye to my mom and I tried to fight back with my tears. I'm really close to my mom; she's the only one that actually understands me. She was the only one I could run to when dad and I had an awful misunderstanding, so it's pretty hard for me to leave her.
I started wondering about College, though. Will they treat me differently? I always wanted to live my life on my own and hang out with normal people. Would some guys go and make friends with me because they want to be the best friend of the prince? Would some ladies go and make friends with me because they want to be known as the prince's girl? I really don't want to be treated as a royalty, I want to feel normal. And even though I'm already engaged to Princess Selena since the day I was born, I want to experience falling in love naturally.
