"You look pretty" Nate said as I got into his truck

"Thank you" I leaned over and pecked him on the cheek

"I uh got you something" he reached into his center counsel and pulled out a necklace box

"Nate you didn't have to"

"Open it" he said handing it to me

I slowly opened the box and my eyes went wide when I saw it. It was a beautiful gold chain with the letter O on it. One side of the O was covered in small diamonds. It was beautiful and definitely expensive

"I love it. Thank you" I said taking it out of the box and leaning over to kiss him again

"Help me put it on?" I said handing him the two sides to latch around my neck

He put my necklace on and turned back right in his seat and started to drive

"I ran into your dad today"

"Where?"

"The grocery store"

"What did he say?"

"He just asked me what I was doing for thanksgiving and told me I should stop by"

"You should, stop by"

"I will after dinner"

"Good" he placed his hand on my thigh

"Your in a good mood today"

"Is that a problem?" He laughed

"No, just not normal"

"Have you thought anymore about college?"

"No, I have a meeting on Friday with some advisor my mom hired" I rolled my eyes

He didn't respond, I know he'll be upset if I go somewhere without him, but I have more to think about than just Nate. I have my whole future to think about and if I'm good enough to get into an Ivy League and I screw my chances over a boy, than I'd be the dumb one. But I love Nate and I think it will be better once we're away from his parents, and this fucking town.

"I'm gonna think about everything" I said squeezing his hand

"It's not gonna be an easy decision but it'll work itself out I'm sure"

"Yeah, we'll be fine" he said obviously wanting to move on

"Mini golf?" I laughed as he pulled in the parking lot

"It was either this or bowling, and we've already been bowling, twice"

"This town is so boring" i laughed

Nate kicked my ass at golf, but I didn't expect anything different. He doesn't let anyone win ever. And he thinks it funny when I get mad during the game. We're both just too competitive to let someone win.

We walked out of the building and all of a sudden Nate grabbed my hand and started running down an alley

"What are you doing?" I said trying to keep up. I could hear him laughing

Soon he stopped and gently pushed me up against the alley wall, connecting his lips to mine. I kissed back instantly, missing the feeling of him touching me.

"I missed you" he said in between kisses

"Me too"
