One Last Kiss

For Love, Will Always Be Ours

I've learned a lot about Carter over the years and everything I've learned I've realized I love.

It's 5 days until graduation. Wow I can't believe it's already here; this year has gone by so fast.

I mean with everything that has happened.

"Hey babe did you get the cap and gowns?"

"No" I say "I'm getting them on Wednesday."

"Okay."

Prom was a lot of fun and it's weird to think that it was our last one.

After high school were gonna basically be adults and be on our own.

College is still in the plans for me; Carter was accepted into University as well and we're moving to Michigan in the summer.

We have enough money to move without asking my awful parents for help.

Remember how I told you Carter's mom left money behind when she died, well it turns out she left a lot more than we thought.

A whole separate ton of money for college and to be able to move so that's what we're doing with a whole ton of money left over. It's crazy to think Carter was blessed with such a wonderful mom.

I didn't know Carter's mom very much. I met her once or twice but we weren't close and I regret that everyday.
He tells me about her and how she looked, how she smelled, her talk, her laugh, everything. It's crazy I feel like I've known her my whole life.

She seems like she was a truly amazing person.

~graduation day~

"Wake up wake up!! It's graduation day!" I yell into Carter's ear.

He groans.

"Babe, I love you but shut up!" He says pulling the pillow up over his head.

"Carter! Wake up wake up!!"

"Okay okay! I'm up!!" He says while chucking.

"We have exactly 5 hours until graduation." I say getting off the bed.

"5 hours!! Anchor!!" He yells chasing after me.

He grabs me around waist and kisses me.

"I love you."

"I love you too." I say.

"Okay let's eat breakfast and than you have to come with me to get my hair done."

"Okay babe. Make me some coffee first please." He smiles.

"Yes sir." I say with a wink.

After the hair salon we go back home and I do my makeup.

Now it's time to get dressed.

I put on a short white dress from Brandy Melville and brown wedges.

Carter is wearing kakis with a light blue button down shirt and navy blue vans.

"You look very handsome babe." I say giving him a quick kiss.

"Thanks babe you look hot." He says back giving me a wink.

I just laugh.

"Okay let's go!"

"Wait Ethan and Heather will be here in 5 minutes."

"Okay."

*knock knock*

"Hey!!!" I scream

"Hey!!" Heather says giving me a hug.

"Are you ready to graduate!?"

"Yes!! Finally.!"

"I know right."

"Okay ladies lets go" Ethan says.

~at graduation~

"Ethan Drake"

"Heather Moneray"

"Carter Ryan"

"Woo!!!! Yeah Carter!!" I scream.

"Anchor Taylor"

I stand up and walk over to principal Reagan.

"I'm so proud of you Anchor." He says.

"Thank you so much for everything you've done for me."

He smiles at me.

"Congrats Anchor." All my teachers say to me.

35 minutes later.

"Let me introduce you to your graduated class of 2015."

We all yell and scream and through our caps up.

"We graduated!!" I yell jumping into Carter's arms.

"Yeah we did baby." He says kissing me.

I can't believe it, we're done with high school.
We're done with these people and these teachers.
It's surreal to believe that now, I'm free.
