1989

It's been months since their first kiss and they managed to be together and keep it a secret from her mother, time went by so fast and it was time for Emily to start packing again she was leaving. well not really leaving she was going to study at Yale she was so excited about it and it made Aaron so happy to see her like this even though he was sad about not seeing her as much he was more that happy to see her fulfilling her dreams.

It was their last night together and Emily still didn't finished packing so they decided to stay and pack together they were nearly done when Aaron noticed the box Emily was busy closing the last boxes, the box wasn't sealed so he just opened it and that was when he saw it, he felt so stupid it made him almost laugh, her stubbornness her relationship with her mother and the fact she didn't like to talk about her father it was her it was Emily! he didn't blame her of course about not liking talking about her father he didn't liked to talk about his father as well.

he was so deep in his thoughts that he didn't notice that she was calling him, he cleared his throat and turned to face her with the pirate's hat in his hand "oh you found it" she said uncomfortably "you can put it back it's really old" he immediately start speaking "it was you isn't it? I should've known" she was so scared, she thought he's mad at her, maybe now that they both aware of their history he will feel the need to stay away from her, he didn't want to talk about his family his father specifically she noticed how he pulled away when she mentioned anything about that, so Emily just kept thinking that maybe he won't want to be with her because she is, after all-

a reminder of that time she didn't even notice he became so close he just wrapped his hands around her hugging her tightly she quickly recovered from the shock and hugged him back letting out a breath she didn't know she was holding "I was wondering what happened to you" he said whispering she smiled "I did too" they broke apart still looking at each other "I'm glad you found India" she whispered
"I love you Aaron, and I'll miss you" Emily said she couldn't keep the tears anymore and she let them fall she smiled through them.
"I love you too, forever" he simply answered
"Promise?" She asked raising her eyebrows smiling
"I promise Emily" he said smiling back

They kissed one last time it was long full of warm and love, it felt like they were hanging from each other's lips

It made Emily happy but also scared because she knew they were hanging there, they loved each other but how long will it take for one of them to slip?

I didn't really liked this part but I did liked the ending, stay updated for more!:)
