d if anything it got heavier. I texted Ryan to see if he wanted to meet at the coffee shop instead. It was cute, cosy and near home if the weather was to get worse. I grabbed my purse and keys and made my way out to my car. I didn't wait for Ryan's reply instead I drove to the coffee shop. If he showed up, then great if not I'd still enjoy a coffee and muffin. Besides, it was good to get out of use for a bit. Staying cooped up with nothing to do would eventually drive me mad.

I had to stop putting it off and enrol myself into college. I wanted to go, wanted to get my degree and Was I kidding myself?

I would be in Yale right now if I wasn't here.

I frowned.

we had months to enrol, but haven't.

Pulling up outside the coffee shop I cut my engine and quickly made my way inside. It was relatively quiet, but I expected as much with the rain. Taking off my jacket I hung it on the back of the chair before taking my phone from my purse. Still no reply from Ryan.

"Hey sweetie you ready to order?".

r, and you want to talk about the rain?".

"Same". Our friendship was special, and I was going to miss him dearly. Other than Alanna he was one of the first friends I made here, and he made me feel welcome from day one. "Have you decided what you're going to be doing?". He asked.

"Yeah". I nodded. "I'm enrolling in college tomorrow".

"I still can't believe you gave up Yale and for Jake".

"Hey". I frowned.

"Sorry I shouldn't have said that it's just Yale is a pretty big deal. He must be special".

If only he knew the truth. Yes, of course Jake was special he was my everything, we were forever this wasn't a stupid relationship that was only going to last a few months. "I can study anywhere". I shrugged.

"But Yale".

"It's just a school". I smiled. "And I'm happy right here".

"You sure staying here is what you really want?". He asked.
