 I'm finally graduating!! Get me out of this hell hole, also known as high school. I can't say the entire time I was at Forks High School was bad, but there are some pieces of high school I will not miss at all. Bad memories. I am officially going to the University of Washington, AND Jasper is coming with me. I will be majoring in nursing, and he will be majoring in economics, just like we said we would.

Jasper and I are sitting next to each other as we listen to our valedictorian, Michaela Norton, give a long, boring speech. I turn and look at him, admiring his features. Even though the gold color of our graduation caps and gowns is hideous, he still somehow is able to pull it off. As each person walks across the stage, I can't help but feel proud. Proud of me. Proud of my relationship. We were able to finish the year strong. Together. We have been through a lot. Meeting each other. Our secrets. Losing the baby. Bella almost getting killed. More than enough events to drive us apart, but we stayed strong.

Walking across the stage was great. I looked out to the crowd as I took the required photo with the principal, who handed out the diplomas. My whole family was there. The Cullens were there. My friends, who sadly don't graduate until next year, were there. I couldn't have done this without them. Everything seems to have finally fallen into place for me.

*I am following the ages presented at the beginning of Twilight in the book. Jasper was 18 at the beginning of the first book, meaning he would have graduated a year before Bella, the same as Netta.*
