Over the next few weeks, Ocean and I trained hard for the nationals. Though it was still coming up a lot quicker than I expected. We had three months until we were set to leave and then it was down to two months. However, the next thing that I knew, it was coming up on valentine's day.
The holiday was on a Monday this year, so it wasn't like I could take Ocean out for the night or anything, but with mom and dad back out on their peace mission, it was just the four of us at the house, we didn't need to worry about the parents prying on us. Even Ocean's parents had gotten to the point where they weren't calling for updates three times a day. As long as Ocean called them once a day, they were fine. I think they were already trying to treat him like he was away at college, so that when he did leave, they wouldn't hurt so much.
