"'Cause when there's you, I feel whole, and there's no better feeling in the world. But without you I'm alone and I'd rather be in love with you. Turn out the lights now. To see is to believe. I just want you near me. I just want you here with me and I'd give up everything only for you. It's the least that I could do. And I'd rather be in love, yes, I'd rather be in love, oh I'd rather be in love with you. And I feel you holding me…"

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

I stared at the letter and my eyes widened. I re-read the thing over and over again, making sure that this was real and that it wasn't just a dream. It was real! I couldn't believe it! I ran into the main room screaming.

"I did it! I'm in! I'm going to—" I stopped my celebrating at once.

"What's all the noise about?" Yamato inquired as he walked into the room.

He spotted the letter in my hand and the depressed expression on my face.

"What's the letter about and why are you so sad looking?" His eyes widened and then he spoke again.

"I know that look! Gimme that letter! Something's definitely wrong!" Before I could object, he snatched the letter out of my hands.

He read it and his eyes widened as well. He stopped reading and slowly looked up at me.

"You…You got accepted into Columbia University!"

"Um…surprise, surprise?" I said as I laughed nervously.

"That's great! Why are you so sad then? You got accepted into one of the Ivy League schools! I can't believe it!"

"You can be really dim-witted at times, can't you?" I giggled.

"Hey! What's that supposed to mean?"

I sighed, pushed him against the wall, and looked at him straight in the eyes.

"Yamato! You don't get it yet, do you?"

He smiled nervously. I sighed again before speaking.

"Yamato! Columbia University is in NEW YORK! Where do we live? We live in CALIFORNIA! New York is all the way across the country!"

I saw that Yamato finally got what I meant. He looked sad and stared as his feet. I couldn't help but feel helpless…Columbia was one of the most prestigious schools in the country. Then there was Yamato…what would happen to him…What would happen to us?

"Yamato, what should I do? I've got this great chance to go to New York and study in one of the best schools but…What will happen to us?"

"Getting accepted into Columbia doesn't happen everyday to anybody, does it?"

I unpinned Yamato from the wall and sat down while sighing.

"No…"

"Well, the way I see it, you've got two options. One, you go and I stay here. Or two, you don't go and stay here with me."

I looked sadly at the ground. Then I got a brilliant idea.

"Or three!"

Yamato looked at me with a confused expression on his face.

"We both move to New York!" I smiled.

Yamato looked at the ground. I guess he must have been pondering whether that was such a good idea or not.

"Come on, Yamato. Think about it. My parents still don't know that I have enough money to support us both, they could buy the apartment there, and pay the rent. Besides, it could be a good experience for us!"

"What about friends and social life?"

He was right…What about friends and social life? Not that I had many friends or much of a social life…

"Good point…Hmm…"

Yamato sat down next to me and sighed. I leaned on his shoulder. We both were in deep thought. Then Yamato spoke.

"Well, I would still have contact with them, with email and such. Plus, Mimi lives in New York! It would be nice to visit her again."

"Hmm…So is that a yes or a no?"

He smiled at me and kissed me.

"It's a yes. We're moving to New York!"
