Ok, this one is short and sweet as well. I know where I'm going with this story, but I'm in a weird place and I just need to get things moving along. I can either make long chapters few and far between, or short ones like this about.. once or twice a day. Whaddya think?

By the way, this chapter is about two years later than the last one I posted, mm k? Ok, on with the show.




"Where do you wanna go to college?" Arnold asked me. We were sitting on his bed, looking at the stars through the skylight.

It suddenly struck me that graduation was only a few months away. I had been accepted to NYU, which was my dream. "Um..." This new's, however, I was afraid to tell Arnold. The thought of separating from him after high school was devastating. "I was thinking... someplace... in the east."

"Really? Me too. I was thinking about going to Princeton," he told me, "but I don't wanna go anywhere that's too far from you to see you every weekend, at least, ya know?"

"Yeah," I replied nonchalantly, though I was smiling inside.

"I got accepted already," he continued. "with a basketball scholarship. But I'll only go if you'll be close to me."

After a moment of silence, I announced, "I'm going to NYU." There was no sound or movement for a few seconds, but then I felt the bed bounce beneath me, and suddenly Arnold's smiling face appeared above mine.

"That's close enough to Princeton," he confirmed. I giggled and pulled him down to me.
