*Two Weeks Later*
"Mare, you've been out of the hospital for two days now. Stop yelling, I'm home bitches. We know already, we've been here." Daya laughs at me as I walk into her room.
"You love it, you know you missed me jumping on your bed and invading your Zac time." I smirk.
"One you aren't cleared to do any sort of jumping or hazardous activities, so there will be none of that. Second, I don't miss you trying to steal my man all the time to talk about the stupid car obsession you both have-" She begins.
"Stupid car obsession!" Zac and I yell appalled.
"Babe, cars aren't stupid. Thank goodness we weren't around the babies, we can't let them hear that," Zac says hand on his heart.
"I agree," I say, shaking my head.
"Babies? You guys need help. Cars don't have feelings and they're not babies. I'm leaving you loonies," She sighs.
"Who's crazy?" Ray says, standing in Daya's door.
"Your girlfriend and my boyfriend. But we knew that already," She pats his back and walks out the door.
"You love us anyway," Zac and I yell.
"Says who?" She yells back.
"You!" We laugh.
I walk over to Ray and wrap my arms around him.
"Hello boyfriend," I smile at him.
"Hello door that I'm about to walk through if you guys get all gross and lovey in front of me," Zac pretends to gag. I move Ray to the side and push Zac out the doorway.
"Bye intruder. We see you and Daya get lovey all day and we don't say anything about it," I stick my tongue out and Zac sticks his back out at me then walks away.
"Now, hello boyfriend. How's your day going?" I wrap my arms around Ray's waist again and he smiles.
"I'd say it just got 100x times more better now that you're with me, but that'd be cheesy. So, my day has been very productive. But I'm happy to be home with my friends now," He places his hands on each side of my head and kisses me.
"Hello girlfriend, I don't think I've told you it enough today, but I love you," He sighs.
"And I love you. Let's go before Zac and Daya come drag us away," I let him go and grab his hand, pulling him out of Daya's room.

Graduation Day
"Daya, we're going to be late for graduation rehearsal! Bring you booty on," I say as she spray perfume on us.
"There! All finished you little impatient grasshopper," She nudges me.
"And we're on our way ladies," Zac leads us out the door.
"We'll see you guys in a hour. Love you," I yell to our parents.
"Did you grab the box Mare," Daya asks once we get to the Waterwall Park.
"Yes Day, it's our graduation day. I couldn't forget the box," I say grabbing it out of my clutch and waving it at her.
"Key," I look at the box and up at my friends. Daya passes me the key and I open the box, revealing our notes, feelings and wishes throughout our high school career, Zac also has one he added in.
"I'll go first, break the ice," Zac says smiling, we all sit together on the stairs.
"Love is a losing game. I believed. Love is a losing a game. I believed. I was wrong. Love is amazing, love is finding a home, a tribe in 3 beautiful souls. Love is what I have and what I have found in my tribe, my family, my home with my 3 beautiful souls. I have loved myself more in one summer, in 4 months, than I have in 18 years of living since I met them and since they started to show up for me and gave me their love in an abundance of ways that I will forever be thankful for. Daya my soulmate, forever my person, Mare my soul friend, my sister and Lawrence Ray, my brother, my best friend and confidant. My Americans and I their Aussie. I'm not sure if this is suppose to be this long or this short but I have two more things to say. I am so thankful for you three changing my life and I know that this friendship is not one of convenience or a high school thing and it wasn't a coincidence, we found each other organically and we'll keep each other, that is now what I believe and am so beyond certain will remain sure, forever. Thank you for making senior year a great one for the books," He says, Day and I leaning on his shoulder.
