Collins POV
I see mom come down from the stairs with a content look on her face. Looks like she got it all sorted out. Why didn't I tell them sooner?
My dad gets up and starts to make lunch. I hear the doorbell ring and I remember that Regan was going to come over to help me make the YouTube video.
I don't think I'm going to have Devan in it. I hope he understands. I get up and trudge to the door. This lack of sleep has really been effecting me.
I open the door to find a smiley Regan holding a get well soon! balloon. A laugh escapes me.
"What? To much?"
"No he'll love it. You didn't have to do that though, that's so kind of you."
She shrugs and gives me a peck on the cheek. I take the balloon and tie it around the banister so Devan will see it on his way down.
I guide Regan to the backyard. Today's video is going to get messy.~~~time skip~~~
By the end of the video I was covered in tuna fish and cat food. Regan on the other hand didn't even have an ounce of it on her. I will never doubt her ability to name 50 countries in 1 minute again.
"That was awesome!" She says.
"Maybe for you, but not for me."
She laughs. Soon, I can't help it I'm laughing to. Our fit is interrupted by my mom coming out plugging her nose. "Uck. What's that awful smell?"
Regan answers, "Oh that would be Collins."
I give her a playful nudge. She screeches and jumps back. I start to tickle her with my messy hands.
My mom smiles but says, "I'd thought I'd let you know that Devan might be in a bad move because I went ahead and told him we were moving.
Regan stops laughing. She looks up at me with a frown. My mom sees this exchange and says, "oh I'm so sorry I'd thought you told her."
My mom quickly leaves. I look back to Regan. She has tears streaming down her eyes. "Moving where?" She cries.
"Georgia," I mutter.
By now I'm crying too. Despite the cat food she leans into me. I wrap my arms around her. We stay there for a few minutes before she pulls back.
"We will make this work," she says with a determined look on her face.
"I love you Regan."
"I love you too."
I nod. I have to make this work. I don't think that my parents will realize that this will have a huge effect on me to, not just Devan.
Once Regan leaves I jump in the shower and wash off all the disgusting "food" off of me. Once I'm done I throw on some close that would be acceptable for public.
I ran down stairs and left a note on the counter saying I was heading out for a bit. I needed to clear my head.-------------------------------------------------------
