"I DID, I got some highlights," the now strawberry-blonde ~~more strawberry than blonde though~~ answered, flicking a bit of her hair over one shoulder proudly. "Thanks!" She was glad he'd noticed. Like boyfriends were supposed to.

Anyway, Tori had to finally glance down at the menu when he asked what she wanted. Oooh, the cheesecake sounded good... bit heavy for an afternoon snack though... "A banana split!" Tori declared as she read the item off the menu. She tapped its spot on the list with her manicured nails and looked up at him brightly. "Yes, that sounds perfect. Mm. Maybe we could split a split."

Heh, see, punny? Punny hunny? Was Paulie doing okay? He looked kind of... sickly. Maybe he should get his own split, if he was germy.

A banana split? The irony. At least it could give him a transition into the conversation because he was thinking the quicker he said it, the better.

"A banana split? Heh. Split a split.. good one." Paulie kept his eyes trained on the menu still, even though he could feel her bright and happy eyes on him. "Speaking of splits..." Now he chanced a look at her.

"Uh, so.. ya know." Air force, start with the RAF. At least he could BLAME it on that, right? Yes? ...No... not really. Maybe somewhat. He finally took a breath and looked at her again. For a little longer, at least. Then, the words spilled out like word-vomit. "So, the air force is gonna fund all my tuition if I go to university, and I thought I might as well go, and so there's one in America that I wanted to go to, and they accepted me, and-" He stopped short for a second. "I'm gonna go." He neglected to mention that the university was UCLA.

The anxiousness coursed in him. And he wasn't even done yet. What was she going to do? Was she going to be super mad or super sad? Or both? Neither were good, but he'd somehow prefer mad if he had to choose. ..If this was the right thing, how come it hurt so much?

At least his next words slowed to a more normal rate of speed.

"And I think.." Paulie swallowed. "Even if it's really hard right now, I think it'll be easier on us when we're apart if we.. split up."
