11. And Then Everything Sucked

For the past week, I've had so many exams and assignments due, and Nolan has been away for the majority of the week too.

Despite not spending time together, I couldn't be more confident in us. Ever since we said we love each other, things are different. There's a new sense around our relationship, and I love it. It's as if all those early worries and anxieties are gone: I don't need to even think twice about the possibility of Nolan cheating when he's away, or second guess why he hasn't texted back in a few hours. I'm confident in us and so is he. We're maturing in our relationship together.

Nolan☺️
Hey babe

Samantha🔥

Nolan☺️
It's alright. Just got done practice and now we aren't doing anything the rest of the day

Nolan☺️

Samantha🔥
Don't they live in Canada?
I mean I would love to but I can't skip school to go to Canada

Nolan☺️
Yea but they're coming to Philly in two weeks since they haven't seen me play yet
And I kinda talk about you all the time to them

Samantha🔥
🙈 Nolan what did you tell them

Nolan☺️
What!! Just that you're the most beautiful girl in the world and that I love you

Samantha🔥
Well now I feel bad that I didn't tell my family about you
Then again I haven't talked to them much at all since I started college

Nolan☺️
That's ok😂
But just so you know, I'm really good with parents
Especially moms

Samantha🔥
Ew nolan stop 😂😂😂

Nolan☺️
😂I'm just saying
Eventually I wanna meet your family
I plan to be in your life for a long time

Samantha🔥
Oh do you?

Nolan☺️
100%

Samantha🔥
Good. I want that too

When it's time to take my exam, I have to say goodbye to him for now. But that conversation gave me more butterflies than usual when I talk to him.

How did I get so lucky?

How did that night at Finn's turn into this beautiful relationship?

I ask myself everyday.

It's a Thursday night, and in college, Thursday nights mean the start of the weekend. My sorority is having another social tonight. And since I have been blowing off virtually all sorority events to spend time with Nolan, I decided to attend tonight.
