Bella, Edward, Jasper, my cousins and I walked into the cafeteria and sat down with Angela, Eric, Mike, Lauren, and Jessica. Edward and Bella are at the end, slightly apart.

Jasper and I are seated next to them, only Jasper had his arm around my shoulders. 

Elizabeth and Valerie sit next to Angela, and Dylan stood next to Lauren. Angela was busy addressing a pile of note card envelopes.

Mike wrote what he was saying on a legal pad, while he helped Jessica with her Valedictorian speech.

"My fellow students. Cool. Right? Wow. Okay, right? Cute. We are the future. Anything is possible if you just believe," he announced. "Nice," Angela spoke up.

"Blah, blah, blah... Perfect. And got yourself a speech,"

Mike smiled, confidently, as he ripped the page off and handed it to Jessica.

"No, this will be my speech. When I want everyone to throw diplomas at my head. So.... thank you," Jessica replied as she crumpled it up and tossed it at him.

"Ya gotta embrace the cliches, Jess," Mike told her. 

"They are the bread and butter of all valedictorians," Eric added. "And this is why you are not valedictorian. And Jess doesn't need cliches. The speech will be epic," Lauren retorted. 

"Epic? It will change lives," I corrected her, smiling. 

"Definitely," Bella agreed as Edward and Jasper nodded in agreement.  Alice and Anthony arrived abruptly as they carried trays of food they won't eat, sitting down next to them.

I took a fry from Anthony's tray, getting a playful glare from him. "Thanks, quiet boy" I smiled, and he chuckled.

"I decided to throw a party," Alice announced as they all looked at her. "After all, how many times are we gonna graduate high school?" Jasper asked as Edward and Anthony stifled a smile.

My cousins and I hide our smiles.

"A party? At your place?" Lauren asked, stunned. "I've never seen your house," Jessica added.
