Chapter Eight

**Jeff's POV**

You never know what something will be like until you do it. Like riding a bike. You imagine it will be scary, you will fall off, and you will get hurt. You imagine brief freedom until that solitary moment when you lose focus and fall down. But when you actually learn to do it, you end up being great and you end up loving it.

In my case, it was moving in with Seana. Sure, I was excited and couldn't stop thinking about it, but I couldn't help remembering that most couples who move in with each other this young end up breaking up. I don't think I could keep going on if Seana and I broke up. I wouldn't be able to live. I wouldn't want to.

It was a month later, and I was finally moving in with her. I had talked to my dad and it was arranged that he would keep the house for me, if ever I would want it back.

I was in the main room of Seana's, er, our, condo unpacking my things. Seana was helping by folding my clothes and putting them in the dresser I had brought over that morning. I was just finishing up with the last box. We had been unpacking for what seemed like hours, and we were finally almost done.

"Babe," I called into the bedroom as I tossed the empty box into the large black garbage bag, "I'm done!"

"Wooo!" Seana cheered, coming out of the bedroom and smiling. "Me too," she said. I grabbed her by the waist and pulled her close. "Really?" I asked, "Because that would mean it's our condo, which means I live here now."

"And that's exactly what I want," Seana said before I leaned in and gave her a small kiss on the lips. She smiled and turned around to look at the clock on the wall. It read four-thirty.

"Come on, let's get ready for the party!" Seana said.

It was Max and Chloe's two-year anniversary of dating, and they were throwing a party. I didn't really see the point in anniversary parties if you weren't married or engaged; I think they just wanted to party. Anyhow, Seana and I were going together that night. The party was at six, so we went and got ready.

"Boom boom BOOM, boom boom BOOM!" We heard the upbeat song by the Black Eyed Peas as we parked the car. The music was coming from Chloe's condo, where the party was being held.

As Seana and I entered the party, we could tell everyone was really partying it up. "Hey!" Chloe said as she walked over to us. She handed each of us a drink, which she had grabbed from a nearby table. "I'm so glad you came!"

"Hey girl! Congrats on you and Max!" Seana said. Seana looked at me and asked if she and Chloe would go hang out together.

"Sure," I replied, "I'll go find Max." I gave her a quick hug and then the two walked away. I looked over and quickly found Max.

"Hey dude! Congrats!" I said, high-fiving my friend.

"Hey Jeff! Where's Seana? Didn't she come?" he said.

"Yeah, she walked off with Chloe." I said, "I finally moved in with her! We finished unpacking just this afternoon. It's my first night living in that condo." I said.

"First night, eh? What are you doing tonight? What are you and Seana doing tonight?" he asked.

"Um, I don't know dude," I replied. It seemed like Max was kinda drunk.

"Oh, okay…" Max trailed off. Suddenly, the girls showed up behind us.

"Hey baby! What's uuuuupppp?" Max asked his girlfriend enthusiastically.

"Us," Chloe said before falling into his arms. The two started making out as if we weren't even standing there.

"Let's go," I whispered to Seana. "Good idea," she replied. She giggled as we made our escape.

By the time we got home, it was one in the morning already. Seana went into the bedroom to change into her pajamas and I went into the kitchen and got a glass of water. Seana came out of the bedroom. "Hey sexy," she purred. "Hey…" I said as I walked up to her. I put my arms around her waist and pulled her close. She rested her head against my chest and I rubbed her head.

"Wow… I can't believe you live with me now," she said. I kissed the top of her head and grabbed her hand. "Me either," I said. We walked towards the bedroom and I took my shirt off. We crawled into bed where she rested her head against my shoulder and eventually fell asleep. I kissed her forehead before turning over and falling asleep myself.
