Allie's POV 

Well today is the day we say goodbye to our friends and move on with our lives. I know it's been awhile since we had a talk but Elijah and I have not been speaking to much because things feel weird right now and I'm gonna be going to L. A. With Kelly I don't know maybe we will figure it out. 

Our Cap and Gowns

I know things are weird with Elijah and I but is it bad I want him to be here to be cross that stage?

"ALLIE!" Kelly beams hugging me I hug back 

I start to cry a little "This is it huh?"

She sniffles "Y-yeah. I'm gonna miss this school it was the best" 

"I still remember how we met" I say smiling 

"Seems so long ago huh?" She asks smiling back 

"Yeah" I say smiling 

"Please welcome the class of 2021!" our principal announces 

We form a line and get in our positions to walk up the stairs to the stage. 

"First and for most I wanna this group of amazing students has been one of the best. Yes they have been a little crazy but they are college kids we all were crazy, I'm so proud of one student even though she had a rough year She's valedictorian Please welcome miss Allie WIlliams" The principal says 

I take a deep breath and walk on stage "Hello everyone! It feels amazing to be standing here with my fellow class of 2021. We did it guys, We survived college and I know we will survive anything I just can't wait to- (Allie sees Elijah in the front row) To spend the rest of my life with the most amazing person I've ever had the pleasure of meeting" I say looking him dead in the eyes 

He smiles widely and blows me a kiss. 

"SO HERE'S TO US CLASS OF 2021!" I beam ending my speech 

After we all have crossed the stage Kelly can't stop hugging me.

"I can't believe it. We are offically adults now" She says crying 

I smile as tears fall "I said I wouldn't cry" I say laughing 

I feel arms around my waist I smile widely 

"Your speech was amazing and valedictorian? When were you gonna say something?" Elijah asks smiling 

I smile "I didn't know I was gonna be because of what happened earlier this year" I say 

Elijah hugs me I hug back "Your the strongest woman I've ever met" 

I smile "So what does this mean for us?" 

"Yes my dad's company  is here but you remember that contract deal you walked in on?" Elijah asks 

"Yeah the one I almost fucked up what about it?" I Ask 

"Well, It was a contract to expand Gold Enterprises to L.A. and Since that is gonna be the new main office while the one here is a back up I'll be moving to L.A as well" Elijah says 

I smile widely "That is fantastic! Oh my god!!" I beam hugging him tightly he hugs back 

"Aww yay! but Calvin is staying here ya'll" Kelly says 

"What? Why?" I ask confused 

"Because he said he's been here his whole life and doesn't wanna leave" Kelly says grabbing a drink 

I sigh and grab one myself "I'm so sorry girl" 

"it's okay maybe I'll find someone better in L.A" Kelly says hugging us tightly we hug back.
