Jillian Vance: 2005

 ———-

My room was a mess, scattered clothes everywhere, I had no idea what to wear tonight.

Should I go dressy?

He did mention a fancy restaurant.

Would a dress be too much? Or too little?

Oh lord, it was just a date, Alex had taken me on dozens of those, what's the difference now?

'He's leaving tomorrow' A small part in my brain said and I sighed.

This would be our last date in who knows how long, high school was over, this was the real world now, no more competition for the cutest boyfriend or pranks with old rivals. You work, study, make money. No more depending on our parents. 

What really scared me was the fact that in a matter of days I was going to lose my best friends because while I stay here in the town of Baltimore they were going to travel the world following their dreams and I couldn't go with them.

 Turning all the negative thoughts off I opted for a black knee length dress I styled my hair as usual and put on some eyeliner and lip gloss, nothing out of the ordinary.

I wasn't going to let anything ruin this night because lets face it, I was pretty sure it was our last one and there was nothing I could do about it.

Decisions were made, I was all ready for college and he was ready for tour. I pretty much knew this was going to happen when I decided to date an aspiring musician and let him break down my walls.
