“I bet, I can’t wait for it. I mean Northshore is something else but I definitely can’t wait for college.”

You’re, um–– you’re graduating next year, right? Do you–– I mean, have you decided what, uh.. college you want to attend.. after that? 

No problem, North Shore isn’t something someone can easily forget though. Where are you heading off to?

That’s, um, that’s true, actually. It was.. pretty intense, at.. times. Oh, um, I’m moving to Connecticut. I’ll be attending the university of Hartford, so, um.. yeah, that’s–– that’s pretty exciting. 

You do, too, bud.

Wow, look at you, you’re almost showing a whole emotion.

I try. I hope you know it’s all for you, of course–– you deserve the best. 

I just mean I’ll miss you, Charles.

–– oh.. Okay. To be fair, I-I think I might miss you too, actually. 

Shut up. You are.

–– if, uh.. if things.. I mean–– if the situation turned out to be, um.. more serious then we could, um.. we could maybe still meet up at 3 am somewhere, um.. between Connecticut and New York..

Neither of them are my sister. You are.

I-I mean–– 

Like, Connecticut is only like a 45 minute drive from New York, but still. That’s still an increase in 40 minutes of driving. What if I need you at 3 am? I can’t do interstate travel at 3 am.

Why not? Or.. or, um.. Skype. Or you could try calling until I maybe pick up. Though, um.. actually, I don’t–– that might not be the best idea. I don’t know, um.. cuddle Boo. Eventually Reed. 

Nope. I refuse.

Sorry, I think it’s maybe a little too late now. Only a little, you know. 

“So how does it feel to leave?”

Weird.. I mean, uh, it’s–– it’s exciting, but, um, also.. kind of.. weird, you know. 

I think one of your shirts fell out of the boxes over there.

–– oh, um, damn, uh, thanks, Beckett. I guess it would’ve been rather lame to arrive there and realize you’ve lost, uh, part of.. memories. Alright, that.. um, sounded less.. cheesy in my head. 

I wanna go out dancing.

That’s, um, okay.. just, err.. maybe not.. in.. here?
