The Prep's Diary: How the Prep became so Preppy

6/13/16

~Dear Diary, ~

~This is so unfair! This has to be the worst graduation party ever! I hate this! I do, I really do! ~
~It's not fair! Everyone got to say goodbye to middle school with a huge smile while I said goodbye to middle with drippy mascara and pouty lips! ~

~I hate this! I hate boys, I hate Tracey and Chase! And I especially hate Mckayla Queens! Grrr~

When mom drove me to the graduation party, I was ecstatic! When it came to graduation parties, our school always had the best stuff, ever! There were games you could play like flag football, tag, simple stuff like that.

But before we could do that, we had the big whole graduation thing, I threw my cap into the air, and everyone got their pictures taken! Mom was hugging me, saying "God, you're getting so big!" She was waving back her tears with her hands and had the biggest smile that I'd ever seen on her face before.

And it was sweet, although a bit embarrassing with how tight the hugs were and she was sobbing so much, that I could have lived without. We all left the auditorium to head outside to where the party was! There was a Dj, food, music and dancing, one of the best things that could ever be at a graduation party!

It was a lot of fun, people were pigging out at the food tables, some kids were playing the games or dancing along to the music, since I was feeling a bit thirsty, I headed over to the punch table to a cup.

As I was drinking, I was just watching the party, Layla and Dakota joined me and got themselves a cup as well, it was nice seeing everyone so happy and chill, with all the pure chaos that happened during the school year, I almost felt bad about not seeing these kids ever again, well, almost.

As I drank my punch, I glanced to my right to see Mckayla and Andrew all across the party, which reminded me that Andrew lied to my face the other day, and I wasn't planning on letting it slide this time. 

"Hey, I'll be right back." I said, "I need to say hi to Mckayla and Andrew." Layla and Dakota nodded. "Sure."

I walked towards Mckayla and Andrew, but before I could call out to them, I got tangled up into a huge crowd of people, I could barely see Andrew or Mckayla and as I push by, I saw a glimpse of Mckayla and Andrew heading to back of the school together. 

The sense of dread twisted in my gut, so I ran towards the back of the school and walked down the weird pathway that was there.  I turned on my phone's flashlight and walked, maybe I could see where they were, maybe I could finally put this weird feeling to rest! 

Maybe I could-

"Mm! Heh-Heh."

My ears perked up at the sound, then I heard a second sound, a mushing sound of sorts, I picked up the pace as I walked, but it still felt like whatever I was doing wasn't fast enough.  

I stopped around some corner and peeked from the wall, which was when I saw the worst thing ever.   The scene that drained the color from my face.

Andrew was kissing Mckayla. I blinked hard; I even rubbed my eyes three times! But nope! This wasn't some horrid nightmare. Every memory that me and Andrew shared flashed inside of my head as I felt my breath going raggedy.
