To Be Away From You

Chapter 4

"That's great! I will discuss the arrangements with your father then." Robert told me.

"Okay, well I have to go now, Bye!" I called out as I held Eric's hand and dragged him away from there. We had to get to school soon.

———-

It was finally lunch recess and for the first time, our table was silent. I looked at Eric and he cleared his throat. 

"Megan, I'll miss you so much! What will we do without you? It's not that Eric isn't a good friend but he is still a guy. Oh Megan, I can't believe you're going!" For the first time Lisa whined. Lisa Bass WHINED at me with tearful eyes. 

"Megan, school won't be the same without you. We will miss you a lot!" Nicholas said to me.

"Come back soon, and don't forget to keep in touch. We'll miss you!" Louis told me. 

I gave them all a grim smile and said "I'm going to miss you all a lot! But it's a temporary move and I will be back soon again so that we can get done with our final year of high school together guys. You know I love you all. You can't get rid of me this easily, I'll be back!" 

——-

School was finally done for the day. I slowly made my way towards the parking lot where Eric said he'd meet me. Looking around, I tried to remember every little detail I could of my school hallway before going to a new school in Miami. I walked out to the parking lot to see a few cars around. I spot Eric leaning against his sleek Mercedes with his hands folded against his chest. 

"Eric!" I called out and as soon as he saw me, his face lit up. I quickly walked to him and got in the car. Eric was a gentleman; he would always hold open the car door for me. 

Once he got seated and started driving, I reached over and put some music on. A song I wasn't familiar with started playing. I bobbed my head up and down to the beat as Eric smiled.

"How was your last day of school in New Hampshire?" he grinned at me. 

"Hey, don't say it like that. I'll be back soon mister, but school was nice. I'm going to miss this place!" 

"And I'm going to miss you." he said to me. 

"I'm going to miss you too Eric." I told him honestly. 

It was only a 5 minute drive from school to my house so we reached home soon. Once we got to my driveway, he parked the car behind my own white convertible and we walked in. 

"My room, race ya!" I called as I dashed up the stairs.

"Not fair! You started running before even telling me!" Eric called from a few steps behind me. Laughing, I ran into my room with Eric just a step behind me. 

"I win! Loser!" I childishly stuck my tongue out at Eric.

"Oh you did not just call me a loser!"

"Yes I did!" I laughed and watched as a sly grin covered Eric's face. Without warning he tackled me down and pinned me, holding two of my hands over my head with his one hand while tickling me with the other. I squirmed and wiggled trying to get out of his grip but he was too strong. Laughing uncontrollably, I tried to tell Eric to stop.

"Oh my gosh hahaha. Eric stop- Hahaha! Gosh, Stop, too much, can't breathe!" I said in between laughs. Eric stopped tickling me for a moment and I quickly tried to get away but instead he fell over me while his one hand still held my hands over my head. Our faces were inches away and both of us had our eyes locked. Without breaking his gaze, his other hand tucked a stray strand of my hair behind my ears while I just looked at him. I could feel the sudden change in the atmosphere. Eric and I had always tackled each other and had tickle wars, but this had never happened before. I couldn't say anything and I just held my breath. We still had our eyes locked when suddenly-
