Jack Johnson's POV:

"Goodmorning students! Have a wonderful day and to the seniors, don't forget to go to the auditorium to order your cap and gown for graduation!" The man over the intercom says for the morning announcements at school.

Recently I realized that my whole life doesn't revolve around my love life and that I needed to bring my grades up in order to have a good future. There's currently only two and a half months of school left and then I'm done with highschool for good. Will I go to college? Definitely.

The first bell rings dismissing us from homeroom to go to our first class of the day. Jack and I have the same homeroom so he's walking me to class.

"Man I'm super nervous.." Jack says putting his arm around me.

"Why?" I ask curiously.

"Graduation! We're almost out of here, Jack. What's next for me? More importantly, what's next for us?" He says sadly.

"There's no need to be nervous or scared about our future, because I'll be with you every step of the way." I say, he almost lights up.

"That kind of calmed me down." He smiles.

"Good."

"So do you know what you want to do?" He asks, looking at me instead of the hallway in front of us.

"What do you mean?" I ask, pulling him out of the way of some people trying to get by.

"Like what college do you want to go to? Or do you not want to go?"

"Oh no I want to go, I kind of have to. Like the only way to make it anywhere in life is to get a good education." I say.

"That's not necessarily true, you could marry a rich guy." He laughs.

"That's true, but I want you."

He awes.

"I want you as well." Jack says happily.

"As for my future career, I want to be a film director." I say.

"Really?" Jack asks.

"Is that not ok?" I ask, raising an eyebrow.

"No, it's amazing! My man's a director." He grins.

"Oh my god." I say, cringing. We both laugh loudly.

"Everything is sexual for you, isn't it?" I laugh lightly.

"I can't help it, you're just so hot." He says through his teeth. What did I do.

"Don't do that." I say awkwardly.

"Do what?"

"Grid your teeth, it means you're turned on and we can't do it at school." I say, but he just chuckles.

"Who says?"

"We have classes to get to! Besides where would we do it?" I ask curiously.

"There's so many empty classrooms and closets in this building we just have to find one." Jack says, he pulls me in closer to him.

"No, I can't risk it, we could get caught, plus I have a test to take first period." I say, he makes a sad face.

"Fine." He pouts.

"Don't be mad, we can do it some other time." We both laugh.

...

A few hours after school Aiden and I go to a small coffee shop downtown. The sun is going down and people are starting to drive home from work. The coffee shop we're in has two large open windows in place of walls, the two of us are sitting by one of the open windows watching cars pass by. We've already been served our drinks, Aiden picks his cup of tea up and sips it.
