240 days till graduation. 240 days till my life begins.

"I'm boooooored. Let's do something else." Travis says.

We're at my place. Travis said he needed some help with a bit of physics and me, being the amazing girlfriend I am, yes girlfriend, offered to help.

It's been 5 minutes since he came over. I somehow knew we'd end up not studying.

"Ok then, what do you suggest we do?" I ask him.

"Ha. Since you asked, well I've got a few ideas..." he gives me a smirk.

"Travis! Mum. Downstairs."

"Joking, joking!" he says and gives me a quick peck on the lips. "Hmm, let's play 20 questions!" he suggests.

"Travis, how old are we?!"

"Oh c'mon babe, it'll be fun! I want to get to know you better. Pleeeeeeeeeaseeee." he says, with the puppy eyes and pout and everything.

How the hell am I supposed to say no to that?!

"Oh, all right!" I concede.

"Yes, ok I'll start first with an easy one. If you could wear only one color for the rest of your life, which color would that be?"

"That's just a crazy way of asking what's my favorite color." I say.

"Well, I am crazy after all. Crazy for you."

Cue his heart melting wink and grin.

"Well I'd have to say purple. Or black. My turn. Which is your favorite movie of all time?"

"That's actually an easy one but you've got to promise not to tell anyone."

"It can't be that bad can it?" I ask.

"Just promise first. Please. It's not something that I'm particularly proud of." he replies.

"All right I promise!" I assure him.

"The Notebuiofh." he murmurs incoherently. 

"What?!"

"It's The Notebook all right? DON'T LAUGH LOU."

"Oh. My. Gosh. Travis that's like the cutest thing ever!!!"

"Let's move on shall we? My turn. Name the top 5 things you would put on your bucket list."

"Oooh. That's a hard one. Ok. Number 1, would be to travel the world obviously. I've never been out of England and there's so many places I want to see! Eiffel Tower, Machu Pichu, Bali, I could go on and on! " I say.

"Huh, that's nice. I would love to join you. Let's just on a crazy world adventure together!"

I'm am falling for this boy. Hard. I feel like falling hard for someone is like jumping off a building because your mind tells you that it's a very bad idea and you are definitely going to get hurt but your heart is telling you that you can effing fly.
The heart is a confusing person. One you shouldn't always trust.
Why am I listening to it again then?

"Ok, Number 2 would definitely be to meet One Direction."

Would I dump Travis for Harry Styles? Hmm.

"Meh. They're ok. Next one."

"Number 3 would be to open a small music recording studio for those really good underrated artists out there!" I say.

This is definitely something I want to do at some point. Music is my life and music with beautiful deep lyrics I am a sucker for. This would be amazing.

"Oh! Interesting! That would actually be really good. You have an ear for good music. You could have a studio like the one in One Tree Hill." he says.

"Oh my gosh, yessss."

He just mentioned One Tree Hill. Anne will definitely approve of him now!

"Ok next one. Number  4 would be to drive a Lamborghini Aventador. Not just any one though, definitely an orange one."

"Ooooooohhhh nice! She's a beauty. My girlfriend's got good choices when it comes to cars. And boyfriend."
There comes his grin again.
My heart melts. Again.

I go in to kiss him. This one lasts long. I could stay like this forever and forget the world you know?

As we pull apart we don't say anything. We just stare into each others eyes, not knowing what exactly we're looking for and there's silence. It's not your usual awkward silence. It's a good silence, as if nothing needs to be said. The silence is comfortable. That's when you know you've made a true friend.

Ugh. He's making me go all sappy.

"What's the last one on the bucket list?" he says, finally breaking the silence.

"Number 5 would definitely be to fall in love. Like head over heels in love. You know, that kind of love that wipes out all sense of time,  destroying all memory of a beginning and all fear of an end." I say.

"Wow. I shall make this My number 1 priority then! Go on, your turn now"

"Well do you have anything special on your bucket list?" I ask, curious to know what makes Travis tick.

"Well, since you mentioned that you want to fall hopelessly in love, I might add making you fall in love with me on top of that list!" he grins childishly.

"Psshhtt, what are you saying? Never gonna happen love." I reply with a smirk.

Who am I kidding though.
He probably can and probably will.

"Ha, we shall see about that. Next on the bucket list, I want to open a publishing house. For like the underrated authors! It's something that I'd really love to do. Though highly unlikely!" he says rather grimly.

"Highly unlikely?! Travis! What are you saying?! You're always telling me that I can do anything if I set my mind to it! How's it any different in your case?" I ask him.

"Two words. My Parents." he says sadly.

I don't actually know a lot about his parents. What I do know is that they are actually quite rich. Heads of some big law firm up in London that they operate from here.

"Are they stopping you?" I ask, now curious.

"Well, you know about their law firm right? Well they are expecting me to head it once I finish Law school which is not something I want to do for the rest of my life. I want to travel the world or something you know? Preferably by your side!" he says and looks at me. A cheeky smile on his face.

"Well, maybe they'll change their mind if you tell them that that's not what you want to do with your life?" I say.

He scoffs. "Them changing their mind? Never. Anyways speaking about them. They want to meet you. I want you to meet them as well. I have to warn you though, not the nicest people, will probably make you feel as uncomfortable as they can, but I shall be by your side so not to worry. So what do you say? Quick dinner at place and then ice cream? Sometime next week?" he asks with a little hope in his voice.

This is a big step isn't?

"Sure babe."

What have I gotten myself into?
