Andy's POV
After we had gotten enrolled back into school, it had gone by really quickly. Today was Graduation Day, and I was a little scared...to leave the house? To go off with Ro and our kids? Scary...
"Andy, your cap is crooked." Ro said, laughing as she straightened it. And there was something else that concerned us.
"Alright, students, please sit down." The principal said, grabbing the microphone. She was about 23, and pretty chill. Everybody loves her. I sat next to Ro, the rest of my cousins on the other side of me.
"We've had a rough year, but we got through it, and came out on top." She said. She started listing off names to come up, and I watched as the seats in front of me started to empty.
"Hamato Andy!" She called. I stood up, and walked up to her.
"WOOH! Andy! That's my boy!" Mom screamed. I winced, and everybody laughed. I went up on the stage, and shook the principal's hand.
"Congratulations Andy." She said, giving me my diploma.
"Thanks." I smiled. I joined the rest of the students on the other side.
"Hamato Felina!"
"Hamato Lindsey!"
"Hamato Louie!"
"Hamato Max!"
"Hamato Rouge!" One by one, people kept coming, until everybody was gone.
"Ladies and gentlemen! May I present you the class of 2015!" She cried. Everybody screamed in delight, and we all tossed our caps into the air. Ro kissed me softly.
"We're done with school!" I said, delighted.
"I know. Isn't it great?" Ro asked. Our parents came up to us, all in human form.
"Congrats!" Mom squealed. Dad stood, looking at me, a proud expression on his face.
"I'm proud of you, son." He said.
"Andy!" Miranda squealed, grabbing my leg.
"Hey Miranda!" I said, picking her up.
"Dad, I'm taking Ro out for dinner." I said.
"Just dinner?" He asked, raising his eyebrow.
"Just dinner. Maybe a walk in Central Park." I added, turning red.
"Uh huh. Just be back before we get up, ok?" He asked.
"Sure." I managed to get out. My parents were weird sometimes. I went over to Rogue, and bent down slightly.
"Wear something nice, we're going out tonight." I whispered. She giggled.
"Ok Andy." She said.

Rogue's POV
Five hours later, I was waiting for Andy by my door. I had caught him with a suit on, and assumed it was formal wear. So, I had put on a dark blue dress on, which had sparkles on the bodice, and trailing down the long skirt. Then, I had curled my hair, and put on makeup. I stuck with a nice pair of black heels. There was a knock at my door.
"Come in." I said nervously. Andy opened the door, grinning. When he saw me, his mouth dropped.
"W-wow! You look beautiful!" He exclaimed. I eyes his outfit: dark blue suit, red tie, nice shoes...I wonder where we're going?
"Thanks." I said. He grabbed my hand, and led me to the surface. From there, we caught a cab.
"We're here." Andy announced. We had stopped by a vaguely familiar shop.
We got out, and I squinted, reading the sign.
"Mirkumai's Japanese Restaurant." I said.
"It's where our parents went on dates, millions of years ago." Andy said nervously.
"Oh, that's so cool!" I exclaimed. He was such a romantic, and he didn't even know it. He held the door for me, and I walked in.
"Hello, Mr. Murakami? We have a reservation for Andy." Andy said. A man came over to us, wearing glasses, and an apron, and led us to our table. Other couples were sitting down, but it was still quietly noisy.
"It's grown since our parents were here." Andy said quietly. We sat down, and ordered.
After eating, we walked to Central Park.
"Andy, are parents ok with us being out at-" I checked my watch.
"2 in the morning?" I asked.
"Yeah. They just said be home by the time they get up." Andy said, indifferent. We walked around the empty park, finally settling on a nice hill that overlooked the city. It was nice and private. There was a blanket sitting there, and a picnic basket.
"You planned this, didn't you?" I accused, smiling.
"Of course." Andy said, looking mildly offended. We sat down, my head in Andy's lap, his fingers combing through my hair.
"I can't believe we're done with school!" I sighed.
"And now we're going to move out, and lie our own lives with our children." Andy said.
"I love you Andy." I said.
"Marry me." He said.
"What?" I asked, sitting straight up.
"Hamato Rogue, I love you. I realized that I can't let you slip through my fingers again. You are my everything. So, please, will you marry me?" He asked, opening a velvet box.
"Of course. Of course I'll marry you!" I exclaimed. He grinned, and slipped the ring onto my finger. It was silver, with a ruby heart on it, surrounded my diamonds. He kissed me softly, but I kissed him back hard, raking my hands through his hair. He groaned, and I felt his reaction to me.
Only the moon watched us make passionate love in the park.
We got home two minutes before everyone else woke up.
