Okay here's the thing--when I started writing chapter 19--it occurred to me that there was A LOT to sum up, so I decided that it would be better to divide chapter 19 into 2 parts, this is the first part and I'm currently working on the rest so I hope you like it and make sure to leave a review!
Chapter 19:
Meanwhile:
"Damn Jen---PRINCETON?! That's amazing!" Yelled Stacy as she hugged Jennifer.
"I know---I totally wasn't expecting this, this is like so amazing!" Jennifer squealed.
"Looks like we need to celebrate---were going out!" Andrew said as he gave a hug to Jennifer.
"I'm going to get everyone--where's Randy?" Stacy questioned as she looked around.
Jennifer stopped and looked around, "um--I don't know, he was just here", she said as she scratched her head.
"He's leaving--you better go catch up with him", Michael said as he walked over to Jennifer.
Jennifer nodded and ran out to the parking lot, hoping to catch Randy before he left. She caught him just as he was getting into his rental.
"Randy!" She called as she ran up to him.
Randy looked up and saw Jennifer running towards him, he sighed and waited for her to catch up.
"Where are you going?" She asked as she stood next to him.
Randy sighed, "Aren't you supposed to be celebrating? I don't want to keep you waiting", he replied as he went to get in the car, Jennifer grabbed his arm.
"It wouldn't be right if you weren't there with me--come on", she said, as she looked him in the eye.
Randy shook his head, "No--I shouldn't". Jennifer looked at him with confused eyes, "but--I thought that--you were happy for me", she said.
Randy looked away, "I am", he lied. Jennifer shook her head, "No--you're not. Randy what's wrong?" She asked.
"You wouldn't understand", Randy replied as he gently took her hand off his arm and got in his car, Jennifer grabbed the door before he could shut it, "What wouldn't I understand?" She demanded.
Randy looked at her in the eye, "Jennifer--I want to be happy for you, I really do but I just can't", he said as he looked down at the ground. Jennifer sighed, "Why?" She asked.
"Because--because I don't wanna think about being away from you", Randy admitted as he looked up at Jennifer.
Jennifer ran a hand through her hair and kneeled down in the car to face Randy, "Randy I--"
Randy cut her off, "I know you don't feel the same way about me".
Jennifer smiled and shook her head, "No--Randy I----I do feel the same way I just--I'm just confused about us".
Randy looked at the steering wheel as he spoke, "What is there to be confused about? I want to be with you and you want to be with me---what's the problem?"
"The problem", Jennifer started as took her hand and turned Randy's face towards her, "is that I don't know if I can trust you".
Randy leaned back in his seat, "I thought we agreed to forget about that--why are we bringing up the past?"
"I told you that I forgave you--but I can't just forget. Randy what you did, it hurt me--I didn't want to admit it at the time but it did, I'm tired of being hurt Randy, " Jennifer said as she looked Randy in the eye. "I don't want to be the girlfriend that had to constantly be worried about where and what her boyfriend is doing when she's not with him".
Randy looked at Jennifer and then looked down, "Jen I-"
"I think we both have some thinking to do--and a decision to make", Jennifer said as she stood up straight and gently pushed the car door closed, she leaned down to the window, "I just hope we come up with the best one", she said before leaning in the window and placing a small kiss on Randy's cheek and walked off to find Stacy.
Randy just sat in the car and watched Jennifer walk off, he sighed and violently hit the steering wheel with his fists before angrily starting up the vehicle and speeding off.

"There's my Princeton girl!" Rebecca yelled as Jennifer got out of the car, Jennifer smiled and was met with a hug from Rebecca, "I'm so proud of you sweetie", Rebecca said.
"Thanks", Jennifer replied after the two separated, Jennifer took her bags and started up the steps to the house, Rebecca frowned as she watched Jennifer walk into the house, she turned to Michael, "I think I would've been a little more enthusiastic if I found out I was accepted to Princeton", Rebecca said.
Michael looked at the front door, "Let's just say she's at a crossroad", he said as he leaned in to give Rebecca a kiss.
Jennifer placed her bags on the floor of her room and sat on the bed, she saw a white envelope on her nightstand, and Jennifer picked it up and saw that it was her acceptance letter. Jennifer smiled as she read the letter carefully, ever since she entered high school she wanted to go to Princeton. For four years she busted her ass making straight A's every term and getting involved in school activities, and now she was looking at the one thing that made all those years of hard work pay off.
"Then why do I feel so lousy?" Jennifer asked herself as she placed the letter back on the nightstand.
"Because you love him--don't you?"
Jennifer looked up to see Michael standing in the doorway, a knowing expression on his face. "Yea--I do", she admitted quietly as Michael walked in the room and sat down beside her.
"You know what you're going to do then?" Michael questioned.
Jennifer shrugged, "I worked so hard to get in this university, so hard that I didn't do anything when I was in high school except homework and studying and extra credit. I didn't go to those high school parties, I didn't just hang out over the weekends-- because I knew that if I got to Princeton by my schoolwork it would prove to everyone that I made it there without using money to buy my way in like everyone said I would".
Jennifer sighed and turned to face Michael, "And the funny thing is--I'm so willing to give all that up--just throw it away. All the hard work, all the time, and I probably won't even think twice".
"It's a hard decision to choose between love and a future, especially when the guy lives out of a suitcase and your stuck in endless amounts of work and classes. You know that it's near to impossible to have both without ignoring the other, what you have to decide is which will matter to you in the long run." Michael said as he placed an arm around her shoulders, "Ever since Randy has been working in the WWE--I've never seen him gloat over a girl like he does you, you've changed him Jen--you've made Randy into a better person. I know that he screws up sometimes but he tries his hardest to be the guy that he knows he can be. If Randy was the same person now, as he was a couple of months ago--I wouldn't allow you two to be together, but now that I see a new person in him--I give you nothing but my blessing".
Jennifer smiled, "You know--you're not making my decision any easier--your suppose to tell me to pick education over a guy".
Michael laughed, "Well I could tell you that--but I know that in the end you'll make the decision that's best for YOU". He squeezed her shoulders gently before standing up, "I know that in your heart--you already know what decision to make, you just need to search for it".
"Thanks Uncle Michael---I mean for everything you and Rebecca have done for me, I really appreciate it", Jennifer said as she stood up to hug Michael.
"Just remember that were always going to be here for you", Michael said as he hugged her back.
