*8 months later; May - Last day of sixth form*

Finally, the last day of being in sixth form. We were all 18 now and still just as close. We’re all still together; Josh and I and Dan and Jade. Even the others now had girlfriends. Max finally plucked up enough courage and asked Laura out for a date and they’ve been together 6 months. Chris has been with Georgina for also 6 months; Apparently they’ve been friends since Primary but didn’t realise they liked each other until around Year 9 and had been too shy to ask each other. I find it incredibly cute if you ask me. Matt and Holly had their first date back in February, on Valentine’s day (Awww!) and have been together ever since. Laura, Georgina and Holly are the nicest people I’ve actually met, seriously. We’re all close just like all the boys are but I’m still the closest to Jade.

It’s going to be one of the saddest days because since September, this school has caused me to have so many memories, but at least we’re all saying together. We’ll even be stuck with Mr. Carlile from now on, yeah; Elissa and him went on their first date back in December and got on like a house on fire. Apparently, he’s been waiting to ask her out before I even moved here, which is super cute if I may add. They’ve been together ever since.

“Ready?” Josh asked me. We were asked to sing, and I’m clearly not going to lie; I’m shitting myself. Everyone was so excited and just wanted to perform already, how do they do it? I nodded as I felt my hand being grabbed and myself being pulled onto the stage with the whole of the school cheering at us. This includes Year 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11. The sixth formers below us and the rest of our year and each and every one of the teachers. Oh, and our families. Yeah, no big deal then. The moment came for me to start the song and the memory of our first rehearsal came flooding back.

We all thought how crazy this is going to be, or that the Josh and I won’t connect with the song and ruin it or just simply that this is never going to work; All those comments were made before even picking up the instruments and began working on the song. After learning the song of by heart individually, we finally came together a week later. The music started and I started to sing the first 2 lines before we all just burst into laughter. We still can’t remember what exactly made us laugh and every rehearsal after that, we could never finish the song due to the amount of laughter that took place every hour after school each week day.

Actually, come to mention rehearsals, we never actually managed to finish the song before. Oh fuck, we’re screwed. Josh’s hand was still firmly in my grip as we looked around the jam-packed hall. We really should have done this outside; It’s not like it’s raining or anything plus it would have been a proper concert experience, well kinda. Well here goes nothing…

L: I've got the whole world in front of me

I'm not letting go 'til I say

J&L: This is my life

I've got it all right in front of me

I won't let it go there's no way

This is our time

Don't slip away, don't slip away

J: I'm losing control

My head is alright

I can't shake the thought of me losing my mind

Been away for three days won't sleep 'til I've done

J&L: All it is I'm living for

Now I will show you all that I'm made of

J&L: This is my life

I've got the whole world in front of me

I'm not letting go 'til I say

This is my life

Don't slip away, don't slip away

I made up my mind

This time I, know, know it all comes down to this

This is our time, this is our time

Don't slip away, don't slip away

L: For all of the times I spent waiting

For all of the long nights alone

I finally know what it means to

J&L: Have something I can call my own

The show must go on

So we'll show you all that we're made of

J&L: This is my life

I've got the whole world in front of me

I'm not letting go 'til I say

This is my life

Don't slip away, don't slip away

I made up my mind

This time I, know, know it all comes down to this

This is our time, this is our time

Don't slip away, don't slip away

J: Your soul is down

I’ll break the dawn

I took the stage and now we’re

Taking back toni-I-I-I-ight

I made up my mind

This is my life

J&L: This is my life

I've got the whole world in front of me

I'm not letting go 'til I say

This is my life

Don't slip away, don't slip away

I made up my mind

This time I, know, know it all comes down to this

This is our time, this is our time

Don't slip away, don't slip away

J: I made up my mind

L: This is my life

Josh was staring right at me while we sang the last two lines of the song. I could see the relief settle in his eyes as I sang the last word. We had officially kicked ass. Obviously. We all stood in a line, including Jade, Laura, Holly and Georgie of course, and just smiled. That’s all we could do. Just smile. All our family were crying and to be honest, I saw at least a single tear from every one of the dudes.

“GOODBYE!” Everyone shouted. Well done guys, multiple tears are now rolling down Jade’s and my own cheeks = Make up ruined. Of course Josh wanted to crowd surf but I persuaded him not too… I could just imagine a poor, little year 7 being squished by that fat arse of his. We all ran off stage and pulled each other into a massive group hug. Man, it’s a good thing we’re staying together, because to be honest, I wouldn’t have a clue how I would manage without them. All of them have helped me in the past and I hope, in the future too. Well I know for sure that Dan and Jade are staying together if she says yes… Yeah, that’s right! Dan’s proposing next week! He’s been planning the perfect day for ages now, and Jade’s always moaning… I mean saying that she thinks Dan will never ask her for her hand… It’s a good thing Dan knows what ring she wants considering she never shuts up about it. Bless. They’re just the perfect couple, alongside Josh and I, Matt and Holly, Max and Laura and Chris and Georgie, of course.
