Chapter 4

{EDITED}

Maddison Brooks

As the principal announced us free, I sprinted off my plastic chair and away from the ceremony in the backyard. "I'm finally free from this hell." I mumbled as I walked. Feeling a few people watching my back before I shut the door into the school corridors behind my back.

Charles was right, the ceremony was boring. Really boring, close off falling asleep every five minutes before Evan ended up poking my back every time I started to doze off.

Walking out on the yard in front of the school while my fingers fumbled with a button on the robe so I could take it off. The birds sang in the trees and a few families had already started going out through the door.

Taking the cap off my head once I saw Evan go through the door; shortly followed by his and mine family. Throwing the cap that had saved my eyes from going blind by the sun, going for Evans head but accidentally hitting him between his legs.

He whined in pain as he reached forward and covered his crotch with his hands. "What was that for?!"

"You didn't tell me you were holding a speech!"

Both mine and Evan's families just stood and watched back and forth between us; I was almost on my knees from laughing so hard.

The door opened and Max and Charles stepped out into the sun after being in the school building. "What's going on?" My brother looked from me to Evan.

"She threw her hat on my balls!" Evan accused me of doing it.

"You didn't tell me about the speech!"

"He told me about the speech." Max shrugged like it was no big deal that my best friend had told my brother and not me.

"Traitor." Giving Evan a fast look when he started to stand up normally, his hands not leaving his crotch.

Before our meaningless conversation could continue mom and dad walked past Evan and walked up to me. Mom threw her arms around me while dad just stood there and watched, for a while that was all he did. Then he hugged me for the first time in years while both of them told me how proud they are over me. "I'll meet you at the car, go and say bye to your friends." Mom said before she and dad walked against the school parking lot.

Evan gave me an angry look before he wrapped his arms around my back and hugged me tight, acting as we would never see each other ever again. "I'm going to miss you." He mumbled against the crook of my neck.

Letting out a short laugh before I answered him, "You're not getting rid of me that easily."

Evan laughed with me before taking a step back from me. "Damn it, I hoped I would get away from you." He joked with the biggest smile on his lips. Giving into a small hug before he walked back to his family that stood and waited for him by their car, knowing that I probably will force him to meet up again tomorrow.

Just as Evan had taken his seat in the car, I reached for my phone just to remember he was going to help me find it. Rooting through the small bag I had taken with me just because of my phone wasn't useful without a phone.
