A COUPLE WEEKS LATER;

I ran a hand through my long hair, and closed my suitcase. "I can't believe I'm leaving for college." I said, looking at Cat. I had a hard time adjusting after Beck and André left for basic training, from what I've been told their doing great. I'm not surprised, but I couldn't help but wonder if they'll get the chance to come home after training.

"Gotta move on sometime." Cat said, grabbing one of my suitcases. We were both attending CCM College in Pasadena. I never thought that I'd get into CCM, it seemed like a long shot but I got in.

I nodded. "I know but this is my home. Seems like everything is becoming reality." I said, grabbing my other two suitcases. Robbie had left for college a week after Beck and André left for training. Jade left a couple of days after Robbie, it was very emotional. That was a shock since Jade rarely cries, but she did. "I know we'll be able to come home for christmas, I hope."

Cat smiled. "Every time we get some time off we'll come home. It's only a couple of hours away."

I rolled my eyes and walked out of my room. "All ready to go?"

I glanced up at my father. "Yep. This is the last of it."

My dad smiled a little. "You'll enjoy college, it's your dream college after all. Just make sure to keep in contact, Trina doesn't." I managed a small chuckled, and then nodded in agreement. Trina just shows up when-ever she feels like it, so you never know when that's going to happen.

"I'll do my best." I said, giving my dad a hug.

"My little girl is going off to college, I never thought this day would come." He said, wrapping his arms around me.

"Alright honey, I think it's my turn to say good-bye."

I pulled out of the hug and looked over at my mom. "I'm going to miss both of you so much." I said, wrapping my arms around my mom. I thought saying good-bye to my best friend was hard, but this was harder. Their my parents after all. They've dealt with me since I was a toddler and watched my grow up. "I'll try to come home as much as I can."

"Just make sure to call us first." My mom said.

"Tori. We gotta get going."

I glanced over my shoulder at Cat and nodded. "Alright. Well I guess this is it, I'll call you as soon as we get to CCM."

"Okay. Talk to you later, sweetie." My dad said, giving me a quick hug. I smiled and then followed Cat out of the house, I looked back over my shoulder and admired that farm that I grew up on. I had so many memories here, and I hope that I'll get the chance to make more memories in the future. The farm will always be my home.

"You okay?"

I looked at Cat and smiled. "Yep, just thinking about the fond memories that happened here." I said, putting my suitcases in to the back of my car. Cat got in on the passenger's side. "Do you think we'll get the chance to make more memories here?"

Cat nodded. "I think we will, every summer. Every time we get to come home, just gotta cherish the memories that you have." She said, running a hand through her long red hair.

I started the car and smiled. "Many more memories to come then." I waved good-bye to my parents, who were watching from the doorway. Cat reached over and blew the car horn. "Cat."

"What? That's the easier way."

I rolled my eyes and drove out of the driveway, watching as my home got smaller and smaller. I could see the horses grazing in the pasture, I never understood why my parents kept the horses, until a week ago I haven't ridden a horse for a few years. Trina hasn't ridden since she turned thirteen. I went riding last week with Cat, and it turned out was a lot of fun.

A week ago;

"Hey Tori, how are you doing with all of this?"

I was laying on my bed, looking through an old magazine. "Okay, I guess." I didn't really want to talk about it. I wasn't cutting myself off from anyone, but considering that Cat and I were leaving for college in a week, while everyone else has already left. "I heard from Beck last night, he's going great. Didn't get to talk to him for very long though. I wasn't expecting him to call at all."

"Why?"

"Because I figured that he'd want to talk to his parents."

Cat stood up and cross her arms over her chest. "Alright we're going to do something that we haven't done in a few years. You need to get your mind off stuff."

"Cat. There is anything that we haven't done in a few years."

"Yes there is." She smirked.

"Then what?" I asked.

"You have two perfectly healthy horses that haven't been ridden for a few years, and I think we should go riding." I rolled my eyes, and stayed where I was laying. I didn't want to go riding, I consider don't the horses mine anymore, I consider them my parents since they still ride. "Please?"

I groaned and rolled off my bed. "Fine. Just to let you know, my parents still ride so the horses aren't ignored." I said, following Cat out of the house. I had a feeling that she was going to make me talk about everything that has happened in the past week, and she probably figures that me getting out of the house will get me to open up.

Cat practically ran out to the horses. "Nervous?"

I shook my head. "Nope." I said, rubbing Diablo's neck. The dark bay quarter horse gelding is mine, I owned him since I was eight years old. I think he's like sixteen or seventeen years old. The other horse's name is Pixie, she's a flaxen chestnut mare. "Okay, I am a little."

Cat smirked. "It'll come back to you."

I narrowed my eyes at her, but quickly saddled up Diablo. "Cat, I better not get injured."

Cat swung up on to Pixie. "Tori, do you remember when we used to race the horses in the meadow over there? Diablo threw you off after spooking at his shadow, and you ended up breaking your arm. That was your last time you ever rode because you blamed the horse for your injury."

"I did not."

"Yes you did. If I remember correctly you told your parents that you wanted them to sell that damn animal."

I frowned a little and then looked at Diablo. I knew she was right, and I know that I should have gotten back on Diablo as soon as my arm healed, but instead I said that I wanted him gone. "Alright." I swung up on to Diablo and grabbed hold of the saddle horn. I'm scared, and honestly didn't want to do this. "Uhh...Can I get off now?"

"Ride him around." Cat encouraged me. I was terrified but I listened to what she said, and I eventually started to feel more comfortable on Diablo's back. I have to say, if it wasn't for Cat I never would have gotten back on a horse. I found out later that day that it was actually Beck's idea.

(Back to present)

"Tori?"

I glanced over at her. "Yeah?"

"What are you thinking about? I've tried to get your attention for the past few minutes."

"Sorry. I was just thinking about last week, when I finally got back on Diablo. Did I ever tell you thank you?" I asked.

Cat smiled. "About a thousand times."

"I still don't know how Beck managed to talk you into getting me back on a horse. He's been trying all summer, and I refused every time." I said, pulling on to the highway. We had like an hour and forty-five minutes before we got to CCM. I wish Jade wouldn't have gone for Juilliard, we could have gone to CCM together. That was the originally plan.

"That's a secret."

I glanced at her out of the corner of her eye. "Okay, fine. Have you talked to Robbie or Jade?"

"I talked to Jade. She's settling in, and seems to like Juilliard a lot. I haven't talked to Robbie since he left for college. Didn't he go to Juilliard too?" She asked, looking at me.

I nodded. "Yeah."

"We're in Pairs. Beck and André, Jade and Robbie, Me and you. At least we're best friends, so we'll get along unlike Jade and Robbie. Beck and André are best friends too. I feel a little bad for Robbie."

I smiled a little. "I'm sure he'll be fine." Cat nodded in agreement, and but didn't say anything back. I guess she's lost in thought, not that I can blame her. I'll keep saying it, the summer went by way to fast. I'm kind of hoping that the school year will go by fast so that it'll be summer again. The only problem is that I don't know if Beck and André will be able to come home during the summer. That's like ten months away so, I shouldn't worry about it right now.

Alright well here is the newest chapter...I know it's been like a month since I last updated.
I've been busy and well had a bad case of writer's block. I honestly thought that I should just delete this story. I still don't know...What do y'all think?
