"Stay still. Please. I'm not even hurting you. Bella stop moving." So it may indeed sound like I'm torturing Bella to anybody not currently in my room, but i promise you, I'm doing nothing of the such. She told me i could put mascara on her and now here she is acting like I'm forcing her against her will. "Okay I'm done. I'm done." I say screwing the wand back into the tube before grabbing my hair brush and going behind Bella.
"I don't know how you do this everyday, and how you don't just poke your eyeball out." She states and disbelief. I giggle and shake my head at her while brushing the tangles out of her hair.
"It gets easier the more you do it and the more comfortable you get with it. Its fun." I tell her grabbing my straightener and begin to curl a couple of pieces. I planned on doing some curls and was gonna brush them out to make them look more natural. "Are you excited?" I ask looking at her through the mirror. She shrugs and picks at her nail.
"Yea i mean of course, I'm ready to be done with it, to move on to new things. Not really looking forward to the walking on the stage thing but ill get through it." I smile at her and nod, curling a new strand of hair.
"You'll be fine. In fact you'll be more then fine, you'll be perfect and i will be front row, cheering you on." She grimaces at me and shakes her head.
"Please don't. Also you better not even think about recording this whole thing. I will hide all of your pop tarts if i see even your phone faced toward me." She says glaring at me. I shake my head at her and look at her with fake hurt.
"Me record you." I fake gasp and continue. "I could never. I cant believe you would even accuse me of this." She turns around and hits my shoulder. I giggle and turn her back around. I place the straightener down and turn it off before grabbing the brush and lightly brush the curls out. "You look beautiful bells." I say while leaning down and place my chin onto her shoulder. She really was the best sister i could ask for and even through everything I'm glad she was here with me. She grabs my hand and squeeze's it before standing up and pulls me into a hug. I bury my face into her neck and sniffle.
"I love you." She whispers into my hair.
"I love you most bells." I say while squeezing her harder. "Now go get dressed, we have a graduation to attend." She smiles and walks to the door. I brush under my eyes and walk over to the closet.
"Beccs." I hear her say and turn around to look at her. "Thank you." I smile wide at her and nod. She leaves silently closing the door. I open my closet door and grab my dress along with my favorite jean jacket and quickly get dressed before rushing over to my vanity. I do the best five minute makeup look i can before putting some jewelry on. I grab my now fully charged phone off of my nightstand and quickly text back Paul before running down the stairs. I grab me some cereal and shovel it down.
"Where's the flood?" Dad says folding his newspaper up and is currently looking at me like i was crazy.
"What are you talking about? I'm just hungry." I say while shoveling more into my mouth.
"Okay I'm ready." Bella says walking into the room. I smile wide at her. "I just now have to go and get my gown when i get to school. Will yall be okay?" She says grabbing her bag and throwing it over her shoulder. I nod before standing up and place my bowl into the sink.
"The tickets are in dads wallet. And we will be there in an hour. Front row and center." I say clasping my hands together. She cringes at me before nodding.
"So ill see you guys there." She says nodding before hugging dad bye and rushes out the room. I walk back over to the table and grab my phone before heading to the living room to put on my shoes. I check to make sure everything is in my bag, including, yes i packed the camera, because i had to. Mom would kill me if i didn't get it all recorded.

When we finally make it in a parking space, thank god for dad being a cop and also a favorite in this town, a kind citizen gave us a spot. I jump out and smooth out the bottom of my dress. I grab my bag and slam the door behind me.
"Are you ready?" Dad asks from the other side of the car, i nod at him and smile to the people passing by me. I walk over to stand by my dad when i see two people out the corner of my eye.
"Esme! Carlisle!" I yell out and run over to them. Esme pulls me into a hug and i hug her back equally as tight.
"You look beautiful sweetie." Esme says pulling back to look at me. I smile wide and hug Carlisle tight, he places his hand on the back of my head and squeezes me tight. I smile into his shoulder.
"Thank you. You look gorgeous and Carlisle, you look very handsome!" I say smiling wide. He smiles to me and turns his attention to behind me.
"Chief swan." He says nodding his head to my dad.
"Dr. Cullen. How are you?" Dad says placing his arm around my shoulder.
"Doing pretty well, and yourself?" Carlisle asks placing his hands in his pockets. I look between the two of them and smile.
"Same here. No reason to complain."
Esme reaches out and grabs my arm gently and pulls me along with her as we walk into the school together leaving the boys to chat and follow behind us.
"We haven't talked in a while. How is everything? How's it going with Paul?" Esme whispers the last question and bumps at my shoulder. I giggle and shake my head at her.
"Things are going good. Things are great in fact. I'm really happy, He makes me happy. I just am always waiting for the other shoe to drop like I'm constantly worried." I say as we continue forward. Now look i know I'm being dramatic but...this is just how i felt. I mean I've never been in this kind of relationship before or any type of relationship at all. My feelings for Paul are strong and its scary. I constantly feel like I'm gonna mess it up.
"What do you mean?" She asks turning to look at me. I bite my lip and look at her.
"Like things are going to good so i just constantly feel like it cant get any better and then it does so now I'm worried he'll come to his senses and break up with me or something, and i mean i don't know maybe it is starting to happen because with everything happening with Jake, i just worry that things will always just be awkward." She grabs my hands when i finish. Probably noticing me almost start to have a panic attack.
"Sweetie no. You cant think like that. Thing's will get easier. Also you are aloud to be happy, don't ever think anything different." She pulls me into a hug and squeezes me tight. I hear the guys coming closer and pull back. She smile and rubs my shoulder. "We will talk more later, okay." I nod and smile towards dad as he walks over.
"You ready to get in there." He says as i wrap my arm around his and lean my head into his shoulder. I nod and smile to Carlisle and Esme before walking in the gym with dad. We walk over and find our seats. I place my bag down in between us and grab my camera and place it in my lap. I take my phone out and quickly reply to mom who was making sure i took lots of pictures and then a message from Paul.
'I'm sorry i cant be there with you today but i cant wait to see you later. I hope you have fun at the party! 'heart emoji''
I smile sadly and quickly reply back with a selfie and
'I miss youuu. Don't let Sam work you to hard!'
I put my phone back into my bag when i see the principle come onto the stage. As he is talking, the graduating students walk in. I wave at Bella and all of my friends as they pile in and walk to their seats.
"Oh!" I exclaim and quickly lift up my camera and take photos of Bella and the others. I giggle when Alice poses and mike sends me a thumbs up. Bella instantly frowns and glares at me, which i took a picture of anyways. I turn my attention back to the stage where the beautiful valedictorian, Jessica, was announced. I take some photos of her walking forward and then when she is finally front and center.
"When we were five, they asked us what we wanted to be when we grew up. Our answers were things like astronaut, president, or in my case, Princess."
