Chapter - 22

(Mia P.O.V)

“I love you, Nate,” I said to him unable to hide my feeling for him and kissed him. He kissed me back. Soon the kiss turned into a makeout session and he pushed me back to the tree getting me out of my daze.

He started to kiss me passionately, but before we can go any further I stopped him.

"Please, Nate let's not go any further," I stop him while keeping my hands on his chest and pushing him a little.

"Mia, this kiss," he said but I cut off him.

"This kiss is the goodbye from me," I said while looking down at the ground.

"Goodbye?" he asked shocked.

"Yes, I will leave this city and it not because of what happens between us it because, of," I said but he cut me off.

"Because of scholarship," he asks or should I say stated.

"How did you know?" I ask shocked.

"Ethan told me," he said.

"Please Nate, take care and do not forget what I told you," I said cupping his face in my hand to make him look at me.
