The next three weeks go by quickly, Louis and I really take the time to work on our communication skills and talk to each other about our insecurities and what we need from each other in the situations where we are feeling insecure. It has really helped strengthen our relationship and makes me feel so much closer to Louis.

Louis's dad has not made an appearance in Louis life since that conversation three weeks ago, Louis blocked his father number and we have moved on from that day. Louis started going to see a therapist to work on his anxieties surrounding his father and working on techniques to use when his anxiety is present. It has been three weeks of healing but also stressing over exams and the end of our high school career. But we both did it, we both passed all of our finals, we made it together happy and loved.

We had prom two days ago and it was the best day of my life. Louis and i have been out since the New Year in school and for the most part we have received an outpouring support. So being able to go to prom and walk in hand and hand with Louis, dancing with Louis and the biggest surprise of all was being announce prom Kings with Louis. That night Louis and I decided to get a hotel room and have a romantic night the two of us away from our families.

Louis Mr Romantic, went out and laid rose petals all around the room and leading to a bath that was filled with rose petals and a bottle of champagne and chocolates were laying beside the tub. We shared a very sensual bath together before Louis carried me to the bed and made sweet love to me. It was a whole different experience then any other time we had sex. I think i fell deeper in love with him that day. Which i really did not think could happen.

——————-

It is now the morning of our graduation and Louis and I are at his house getting ready.
"Lou! Are you ready we have to be at the school in half an hour!" *I shout at Louis from Louis's room while Louis is in the bathroom. "Babe relax i am ready. Why are you so nervous?" Louis questions. "We are graduating today Lou, aren't you nervous?" "I think you are nervous enough for the both of us." Louis laughs. "Baby breathe for me, its going to be okay." He rubs my back.

"What if i fall Lou?" I whisper, my clumsiness has always been a big insecurity for me and the thought of falling in front of hundreds of people made me extremely nervous. "If you fall then i will fall as well. I walk after you remember?" "Yeah okay... i love you" i smile slightly. "Love you more. Now lets go."

We climb into Louis car and head out to the school where our graduation is taking place. My mum, Jay and both Louis and I's siblings follow in a couple cars behind us. Like we are one big family.

We all get seated in alphabetical order and I look around to try and find Louis in the rows behind me, after searching and searching i feel my phone vibrate. I pull it out and see a text from Louis. I see you baby breathe it will be okay. I smile and take a deep breath. I turn around and see Louis waving at me 3 rows back. Instantly i am comforted knowing that my boy is here.

Only 15 minutes later Principal Janes started to give the graduation speech. "Congratulations to the graduating class, you have reached the closing of one chapter and are moving onto the next. Now we recognize that this journey has been a challenge and we see the hard work that all of you have put in to make it here today.
