A/N: Yesssssssss!!! I'm finally done with finals!!! Let's just hope that I did well. Anyway, I really have no idea what this story is going to lead to, so maybe the updating will be quite slow. The reviews are not enough, so people, please please please do your job so I can see how this story is going to develop!!! And thanks to all those people who had already done so!!!

Mia:

It was algebra period now and believe me, I did try hard to listen to Mr Gianini. But how could I just sit there and listen to him drone on and on about polynomials when I'd got other much more important things on my mind, like...that issue with Michael. I know, it may seem that I'm just making a fuss out of nothing and repeating everything, causing myself misery when Michael had already assured that we would be fine. I don't know either, I just feel so scared. And worried. Though I can easily visit Michael when he is in college, it's just a few subway stops away, but there's still a difference. It's the whole "not in school with me" thing. We may not suck face everyday like Josh and Lana in front of the whole school, excuse me, but how can we do that when there is always a bodyguard within near distance. Michael says that he is sure Dad told Lars to punch him in the face if he tries to do anything to me or what. As if. Michael is SOOOOO not that type of person, and he certainly hates public displays of affection. Anyway, back to the topic. It would certainly be very different without Michael in school with me Hey, wait, Tina just passed a note over.

What's the matter with you?

Huh?

Well, Lilly said that it seems as if you were in another world today and that you were ignoring Michael during the whole journey to school today. He was like a sick puppy wondering what was going on.

I smiled in spite of everything. Well, it was just so cute to imagine Michael as a little puppy. Yeah, I know I'm sick.

I replied: Um...nothing. I wasn't ignoring Michael. We are fine.

Yeah. As if. Lilly said that you were afraid you guys were going to break apart once he goes off to college. Oh, for God's sake. You know he's not that type of guy.

I know. But which guy can resist it when they are constantly thrown into the presence of pretty girls who are not flat-chested like me.

Mia. That's the problem with you. You are not confident enough and it's not true that all college girls have well-developed chests.

Well, most of them anyway.

Whatever. But don't you think instead of worrying about the future, you should try to make the best of the time you had left with Michael instead of wasting them away like you are now? Haven't you heard of the saying "Live life to the fullest everyday"?

I was starting to reply when Mr Gianini asked me to answer a question. Oops. You would think that he would let me off considering the fact that I'm his stepdaughter. But none of that business with Mr Gianini. Anyway, later.

You know, after getting Tina's note about how I should live life to the fullest everyday, I started to think really hard about it and realized that she was right. I can't possibly worry everyday about how our relationship would turn out once Michael goes off to college. Instead, maybe I should just try to enjoy the few days left with him. Yeah, that's what I should do. I just hope that he's not angry with me for the whole incident in the limo today.
Michael:

I was really surprised when Mia came running over to my locker after school, bright-eyed and breathless. "What's the matter? I was just preparing to go look for you at your locker." I asked.

"Nothing. Didn't you say you wanted to hang out after school today?"

"Oh. But I didn't inform the rest. Did you?"

"Nah. It's alright. We would hang out by ourselves today."

"Um...okay." I said.

"Good. Let's go then."

I wonder what happened to Mia. There was such a big formation in her compared to in the morning. Well, at least, we would be alone.

Mia:

I finally managed to convince Lars that nothing could possibly happen to me in the loft with Michael by my side. Now, we were hanging out here, sitting on the couch and watching a video. I was lying against Michael's chest and he was stroking my hair. He always smells this good.

"So...babe...what happened in the limo today? Why were you ignoring me?" Michael asked.

I sighed. Well, it seemed that I was going to face this sooner or later whether I liked it or not.

"I'm sorry, Michael. It's just that...I was still worrying over that matter. You know..."

Now it was Michael's turn to sigh.

"Didn't I tell you that we would be fine?"

"I know. Baby, I'm sorry. It's not that I don't trust you. I do. It's just that I have no confidence in myself."

"Well, do have. Anyway, you should know that I'm not that type of guy. I love you a lot, you know?"

"Yeah, I know. And I'm really sorry. I had already straightened out my thoughts. Let's not worry about the future and enjoy ourselves to the fullest everyday. Alright?'

"Alright, babe. I love you."

"I love you too."

With that, we spent the rest of the day making out, cuddling and kissing. It was great fun to be with Michael and everything was once again alright between the 2 of us.
