No Longer Next Door

Ember's Pov

I woke up in bed next to Devan. it was moving day. Most of our boxes were packed already. I rolled to my right and kissed Devan's forehead. He stirred

"Good morning," He said

"Good morning," I replied

We both got up and got dressed. We packed the last few things we had and loaded them into his car. When he left to put away the last box I sat down on the counter where it had all started. I looked around the empty apartment and remembered all of the memories that we had. I looked over to where the couch had been. I remember laying down on the ground with him talking about how I liked him anonymously. I looked over to the bathroom where we had a nice scene there. I looked into the hallway where Devan would chase me around. Then I looked over at his room. We had had so many movie marathons in there. We had tickle fights and moments where he would roll me in a blanket like a burrito and then I would crawl around on the floor like an inchworm. It was great. when Devan came back in to grab his phone and keys he looked at me. My eyes started to water

"YOu okay Emmy?" He asked

"Y-Yeah it's just... We had so many moments in here it's just hard to leave." I replied

"Oh sweetheart it's alright," He replied wrapping his arms around me like he did four years ago when we first ran into each other.

He hugged me and I hugged him back.

"I'm ready to go now," I told him as I slid off of the island counter.

He grabbed my hand and we went to his car. I grabbed my aux cord and let my music play as we drove to our new house. It was a one story four bedroom two bathrroom house. It had a pool in the backyard and a big kitchen ad living area. We pulled into the driveway quickly nad got out. We both stood in fornt of the hood of the car. Devan wrapped his arm around my waist.

"Here it is Ember... Our home."
