Violet wondered why he would worry about something so far off anyway. What was the point stressing himself out now? But Noah had always been like that. If he thought of something, he worried about it no matter how far out it was.
She had always been his voice of reason when it came to things like that. Sometimes you need to listen to someone else tell you what you already know deep down.
"I practice ballet for an hour and a half every weekday, have roughly two hours of homework a night, usually drive Nathan and Oliver around, and still make time for you. Do you honestly think that will change just because I'm going to college?" Violet asked in a practical tone.

Ah. So that's what this was really about. He was worried that her prom date was going to turn into something more and then she wouldn't have any time left to spare for him at all.
