My Brother's Best Friend

Honey

Elizabeth's POV

It's Sunday today and despite doing nothing yesterday I plan on wallowing in my self-pity of what the school may think of me tomorrow. I got out of bed and decided maybe to see Tyler, after all, I didn't talk to him much after accusing him of cheating and before I could call him my phone started ringing.

"Hey" I smiled knowing Tyler thought of me at the same time and called

"Wanna come over I wanted to talk?" He asked

"Uh yeah sorry again for accusing you and everything," I said a little worried

"No it's fine" he replied and he told me to meet him in an hour at his place so I obliged and drove to his place after a bit of waiting around. I knocked on his door and walked in

"Hey" I smiled at Mikaela as she came up to me

"Hey Ty Is in the kitchen" she smiled and I shook my head and walked over to him he was unplugging the sink and letting the water drain out so I snuck behind him and wrapped my hands around his waist

"Hey babe," he said turning around and kissing me he released off and his whole demeanor changed

"What's wrong? Is it because of what happened before?" I asked again despite him already telling me it wasn't over the phone.

"I'm moving," he said very bluntly and I released myself off of his waist

"What do you mean?" I asked my heart sinking

"I got into Harvard and it's in Cambridge so I'm getting a dorm room and I wanted to tell you first," he said grabbing my hands

"Oh well that's amazing Harvard is incredible you really only hear about it in movies and stuff but you actually got in I'm so proud of you," I said forcing a smile knowing what was going to come

"Elizabeth I can't make you wait for me and you know it," he said squeezing my hands

"No, I understand" I said feeling ready to cry especially after thinking he cheated on me and then he tells me he's breaking up with me.

"I would say we can try long distance but you're in high school and it's just not a good situation for the both of us," he said trying to smile I took my hands back slowly and he let them go

"I'm so sorry I even got involved with you not that I regret even a moment of it with you I just wish we could've had more time together," he said with his hands now on my shoulders

"You're going to do incredible things Tyler I know you will" I said and forced my smile feeling almost comical like I was comforting him rather than accepting the fact I don't need to be happy right now and he hugged me.

"Tell Mikaela she'll want to know," I said trying to give my last piece of advice before leaving

"Wait Elizabeth" he said grabbing me and pulling me to him I looked up at his face and my heart melted and he looked me in my eyes and kissed me softly I deepened the kiss slightly and then took a step back

"Goodbye Tyler" I smiled and walked away

"Goodbye Elizabeth" he said dramatically like a cheesy movie leaning on the counter watching me leave I waved to Mikaela and opened the door as I shut it behind myself a car pulled into the driveway and a man walked out.

"Hi is this where Tyler Dunbar lives? I'm the university representative here to talk to him before his departure" the jolly man said making my heart thunk to my feet
