"Through out your life you meet people, you make friends, you make enemies but in the end the true ones will stick by you. Today we are all entering the world of adults. It's all on us now, we are the next in line. Make your life worth remembering because in the end your the only one who truly remembers. I am so glad to be graduating with this class, let your lives be shined on by light and blessed with the smile you surrounded yourselves with." Those were the last words out of my mouth as the graduating class roared with excitement. Caps were thrown up in the air with happiness. Photos were being taken all around. I walked down the steps from the stage and was engulfed into a hug from Carter.

Its been 2 months since I've had that talk with my parents about college. Since then I've been enjoying high school , filling out and packing for Juilliard. Carter and I are still together we've been absolutely great. Taylor has came and gone. With him being so busy , I understand.

"Baby , you're finally out." Carter said as he kissed me and spun me around making me giggle. As he set me down I heard the sound of my bestfriends voice.

"Congrats , carebear." He said , Carter let me go and I walked up my hug Taylor. He held me in for a while making me smile. "How do you feel?" He said as he let me go. I smiled and said "Damn good." As I said that they began laughing.

My parents finally approached , congratulating me like Carter and Taylor had. We took pictures which seemed like an hour but it really wasn't. Carter and I took a picture where he was holding my waist and I was facing him smiling and having my eyes closed. It was the cutest picture I would ever have.

As we began making our way towards the car , my dad stopped us all. "Where to college girl." As he said that Carter looked over at me confused.

"College girl?" He asked looking towards in a confused manor. I haven't told him about college yet. Taylor knows he's know since the day I told my parents. I just couldn't tell Carter because as soon as I did, that would be it, it would be over.

"I think I'm gonna go with Carter for a little bit , dad." I said and he soon got the hint that I need to talk to Carter. My mom kissed me on my forehead and hugging me. My dad shook Carter's hands and gave Taylor a hug.

"I'm going to go, congratulations Carebear." Taylor said hugging me and then saying bye to Carter leaving us alone. I turned to Carter and grabbed his hand. "We need to talk."

We were at my house, my parents went out to eat and we were alone for a couple hours. As I got out of my cap and gown and into more comfortable clothes I made my way down stairs. Carter didn't talk once on the way over here. I had a feeling he knew already. I stopped at the last step, he looked up at me and got up. I grabbed his hand and led him upstairs.

I sat us down on my bed. I closed my eyes and began thinking of what I should say. I thought of many different things to say but nothing seemed to fit right so I just decided to go for it.

"Carter, I love you." I said it was the only thing I knew I could say right now. "I-I should've told you this a long time ago, and I don't know if it's because I was scared or because I knew as soon as I did something bad would happen." I said taking a breather I felt as tears began in my eyes. Luckily he was starring at me, he was face down his body opposite of mine.

"Don't." Was all he said looking up at me, his eyes were red with tears. He grabbed my hand and sat right across from me. "Don't say it." He said once again kissing my hand and I felt a tear drop.

"Carter, I'm going to.." He stood up right before I could say it.

"Stop I don't want to hear it, because if you don't say it , it's not real." He said looking away and running his hands through his hair.

"Carter Im going either way." I said standing up with him. I put my arms around him running his shoulders.

"Where." He said , as we were still in our positions. "Juilliard." I said laying my head on his back. He didn't do anything, he spun around picking me up bridal style. He laid me on the bed , as he laid down right by me. We fell asleep with his arms around me, one last time.
