As promised both of them tried their best not to let distance get to their heads. It wasn't as easy as agreed, but they looked forward to every time they would get to see each other next. There were times when either of them had to cancel, or some or the other hurdles showed up, but they were too stubborn to let them affect their relationship.
After almost a year when it was time for exams, both Caleb and Ashton were busy as hell. Ashton was in fact worried that if he didn't score well enough, he might have to find another college.
Mr Wrisberg wasn't sure of letting him out of sight, but Caleb used his presence at the college as an advantage to convince his father to let him come to him. Over the whole year he failed to notice any questionable behavior from Ashton, so albeit his reluctance, he gave Ashton his permission to go.
