in the next month life was happening, syd and i were about to graduate and we both had different plans after college. i decided to stay another year at uconn wanting to win the national championship i came for and syd was doing an internship in New York for journalism.

we had to battle with long distance and everybody knows what long distance does to couples, but i wanted to have an positive mindset and attitude because me and syd have been through a lot together.

for now, i didn't want to worry about the future but spend as much time i could with her during this last month of school and summer before she left for New York.

"have you ever been on a cruise before?", i ask sydney as i scrolls on my macbook trying to plan summer trips for us. she shakes her head in response and i hum.

"i was thinking about it, this cruise goes to hawaii", i explain to her showing her my laptop. "ouuuu like motunui from Moana, OUUU MAYBE WE CAN SEE TE FITI in real life", she said with excitement making me smile at her because i loved to see her happy.

i hum in agreement knowing damn well we wasn't going to do any of that shit, "wanna go?", i ask her and she looks at me with shock, "p, you know I don't have the funds for an cruise right now... I have to pay for graduation stuff", she sighs and i shake my head.

"cmon baby, you know i got us", i tell her. "but you literally pay for everything and i feel bad sometimes", she whines. i suck my teeth at her, "so... imma trick", i tease with a smirk and she nudges my head laughing a bit. there's an silence, "think of it as my graduation gift from you", i say and she mumbles an soft okay. i smile at her and immediately start to buy the passes and tickets.

i was still at sydney house because i damn near lived here, i sat comfortably on the couch with eden and kk cuddle up on the other end.

sydney was out with doing an assignment trying to get ads for her newspaper assignment, "so... sydney told us that she's planning to go to New York after school...", eden trails.

i groan, "I don't want to talk if about", i say and eden looks at me. "well you know you're going to have to eventually... like really soon", eden trails on more. i wrapped sydney moana blanket around my body for comfort.

"i-im excited that she's going to New York i mean writing is her dream and passion, she loves to read and stuff and New York is a perfect place to get her career just started", I trail.

"butttt", kk eggs and i look at them. "but... i have this feeling inside that's trying to find a way to make her stay because long distance is scary and draining and hard", i say.

eden hums, "but that's what an relationship is not everything is gonna be easy and perfect... you're gonna have hard times and that's when you really test if you're meant for each other... you have to make it through the hard times", she encourages me.

"so yeah long distance is known to break apart relationships even good relationships but you have to at least try p... you both deserve to try", she finished and kk squeals at her girlfriend making her smirk am bit.

kk clapped her hands swirling her hair, "my girl gives GOODT advice", she said and eden playfully rolled her eyes at kk silliness. i laugh, "she really does but i think i need to personally sit down with syd", i say turning my back to the tv missing my syd.

when sydney came back we all came running towards her like little kids. "HIIII MOMMY BABIES", she teases us hugging us tight in a circle.

"WAIT EVERYBODY BACK UP", i yell at kk and eden pushing them hard as fuck. sydney gasps and looks at me, "baby you can't push them like that", she says and i wave them off. "ain't nobody yo baby BUT ME... everybody else yo lil puppies ya know strays get it", i say and eden and kk both gasps.

"oh know she didn't bae", kk whispered to eden and i smack my teeth nodding my head. "YUUPPPP I SHOLL DID, WASSUP", i said bucking at kk and we both started to play fight.

eden and sydney shake their heads at us walking off leaving us to fight, "let me goooo", i whine as kk holds me tight by my shirt and she shakes her head, "UNT UNT take this L boo", kk said gripping my shirt tighter.

"YALL STOP IT NEOWWWW", sydney yelled and we both stood still like statues. "okaaay", kk said with a sad face and walk down with her head down towards eden.

"what's on your mind lovely?", sydney asks taking me out on my deep thought. i shake my head, "nothing", i lie and she gives me an side eye. "stop lying, talk to me p", she demands me and i sigh.

i twirl the ends of my blonde hair which was an way i coped when i was bit nervous or tried to relive some of my nerves, "im just thinking about us after graduation", i say looking up at her.

she hums, "tell me what you're thinking about", she says pulling her hands away from twirling my hair and replacing her hands instead.

"i know we still have an month and summer left but after that... when you go to New York", i trail and she hums signaling she was listening.

"im more than happy for you because i know this is something you've wanted since you were a little girl but long distance is hard sydney and im scared that it might break us apart ya know", i pull my lips into my mouth.

there's an silence as we both stare at each other, "im scared too p but i have faith in us because we've been through a lot and long distance is hard but i believe in us that we'll be able to get through this", she rubs her warm hands up and down my goosebumps.

"but for this to work, we both have be 100% in this and believe in each other", she looks at me and i nod my head, "we have time, let's not worry about this until that time comes okay", she tells me.

i hum as she leans down and places a kiss on my lips, "sorry", i apologize and she shakes her head, "don't be sorry for expressing your feelings baby", she assures me.

"i love you", i say

"i love you more", she smiles at me.

i knew that everything was alright right now and that's all that matter at the moment.
