goodbye

"I can't believe you're moving away, how come you couldn't go to college here?" David asked helping me pack. "David, you know that it has always been my dream to go here." I said. "I know but I wanna see you, I'm really going to miss you." He said. I gave him a gentle kiss and we pulled away. "I'm going to miss you too babe." I said. He smiled and I could see tears forming in his eyes. He let one fall and he sniffled. "Davey... come here." I said giving him a hug. "Please don't go." He said into my shoulder. "I have to, this isn't easy for me either, I'm leaving my family, friends, and you." I said.


He looked at me and wiped his eyes. "That's why you should stay! It wouldn't be that far of a drive to visit either." He said. I chuckled and rubbed his cheek softly. "How is long distance going to work? What if you find someone else? I don't wanna loss you." He pleaded. My heart broke to see him like this. "We're going to make this work, you aren't going to lose me." I said. He nodded and then helped me finish packing.


The next day I was leaving. I was super sad about leaving but a little happy to go to my dream college. I looked over at David who had spent the night with me, he told me that he wanted me in his arms for one last night. I kissed his forehead gently which woke him up. "Today's the day." I said stroking his hair. He sighed and rubbed my back. "Goodbye y/n." He said sadly. "Save the goodbyes for when I'm in my car." I told him. He nodded and gave me a kiss.


I took a shower and everything and David helped me with my bags as we went downstairs. My mom and dad were looking at me with sad expressions. They both gave me a hug and I could feel the tears start to form in my eyes. I'm not going to cry just yet. We walked outside to my car where I saw all of my friends. Zane and Heath were the first ones to run up and give me a hug. I chuckled and hugged them. "Good luck out there." Zane said. "I told myself I wasn't gonna cry." Heath said fanning his face. I giggled and they smiled at me. Everyone else came up and gave me a hug and said bye which was making me more and more sad.


The last one to say goodbye was David. He gave me a cheesy smile which made me chuckle. I hugged him tightly, wrapping my arms around his neck as he wrapped his around my waist. "I'm gonna miss you so much baby." He said. "Me too Davey." I said. I didn't want to ever let him go, I wanted him to hold me in his arms for as long as possible but I knew that couldn't happen. We looked at each other and kissed, this would be our last kiss for a while. We pulled away and then he kissed my forehead gently. "I love you y/n." He said. "I love you too David." I said.


"Oh! I almost forgot." He said pulling something out of his pocket. He got down on one knee and I gasped. Everyone cheered and he smiled at me. "Promise me that once we both finish college and you come back home, that you'll marry me, I want you to be mine forever y/n." He said. "I promise." I said. He smiled and then slipped the ring onto my finger. "That's our boy!" Zane said. We both laughed at him and I smiled at David. He smiled back and then I looked at everyone and sighed. I got in my car and started it and waved everyone goodbye. I drove off and started crying from happiness and sadness.
