I am extremely lazy. There is nothing else to it. That is why my chapters do not have extreme detail. However, the finale will be the longest of all the chapters. And extremely detailed. So, stick with me, okay? Another note: Holy crap. I posted the chapter for my Clique story on here! Oh god. So sorry! Different note: Thanks to everyone who reviewed and put this story on alert! It means the world to little old lazy me.
Special thanks to Emmy-loo, my beta. And, um, sorry.

"Alex, you've been accepted to my school. You promised!"
Alex Rider was at a crossroad. Age 18, he had been accepted into almost every
college he had applied to. Including Sabina's.
Alex had promised Sabina he'd go to her school if he were accepted. Now he
regretted making that promise.
"Look, Sab. I'm not sure I want to go to your school."
On the other line, Sabina made an angry noise.
Quickly, Alex said, "Actually, I'm not sure I want to go to school at
all."
Sabina gasped. Alex was suddenly glad he didn't have to do this in person. When Sabina was angry, she could be scarier than his Civics teacher when someone didn't do their homework. And that was pretty damn scary.
Taking a deep breath, he continued. "I've been offered this really great
job as an interpreter. The office is in your town, so we
wouldn't have to do long distance anymore."
Unknown to Alex, Sabina was shaking her head.
"No Alex." She said. "I can't do that. When we first started dating,
you told me you wouldn't break any more promises. I think we need to take a break."
"From the phone conversation?"
"No Alex. From our relationship."
There were a few moments of silence. Then—
"Sab, I haven't ever had good experiences with breaks. You know that."
Alex imagined her biting her lip.
"Then maybe we should just end it completely."
Alex hung up.
LLLLL
So sorry about the shortness. I'm lazy. Extremely. Reviews make my lazy-induced microwave ding. I don't mind anonymous, complaints, you love it, anything.
