Happy Forever

Epilogue

What if I told you that none of that ever happened. What if I told you that I got into a concussion, and that a week later when I woke up there was a guy named Chris that said he saved my life. And that whenever he saw me from then on his eyes turned a dark shade of brown that looked black. And the black color was very different from his brown eyes with flecks of gold, blue, and green. What if I said that ever since that day we became best friends and that in our senior year of high school we started dating. And that Brianna was just some super model I had seen in a magazine. And finally what if I go back to that last day, graduation where I changed the story........

                                                                                Graduation

I woke up early in the morning. Today was graduation, no more school. I curled my long, dark hair into ringlets and put on a white lace dress. My parents, Chris my boyfriend, and all Chris and I's friends would be there. I drove in my cheap crappy car and sat down in my cap and gown. I would be going up right after Chris so we sat next to each other.

"You nervous?" He asked, I turned around and wrapped my arms around his neck.

"Is little Chwissy Wussy scared?" I asked him giving a pouted lip. Then out of no where started tickling me until I couldn't breathe, and my cheeks were probably cherry red.

"Say Uncle!" Chris yelled, by this time people were staring and either smirking or giving me a glare that had jealousy written all over it.

"UNCLE,UNCLE,UNCLE!" I screamed. He was laughing so hard he doubled over holding his chest. After his laugh attack he helped me up then the graduation started. Name after name was called, some I knew. Some I heard whispered around the school walls, and some I didn't even know I existed. Then after what felt like an eternity Chris was called to go up, he excepted his diploma with a smile and started to walk off the stage. By the time my name was called I was already half way to the stage, I excepted my diploma in the same way that Chris did. When I started to walk off I noticed that Chris was still standing on the other side of the stage, but instead of holding a circle of paper he was holding a microphone. 

"This is dedicated to my one and only, Amber Dawson! Hit it boys!" He yelled into the microphone. Then I hear the horns and piano play the soft melody and I know right away that the song he is planning to sing is Can't Take My Eyes Off You by Frankie Valli. At that moment I remember when we first hung out together at my house. We decided we wanted to watch a movie and my mom recommended 10 Things I Hate About You. As the movie went along to the part where Heath Ledger sang Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You to Julia Stiles in the rows of seats there were at the football field. Ever since I had said that I wanted a boy to do that for me and it looks like today would be the day.

"You're just too good to be true, I can't take my eyes off you. You'd be like heaven to touch, I wanna hold you so much. At long last love has arrived. And I thank God I'm alive. You're just too good to be true, can't take my eyes off you."  I felt my knees go weak and I was grinning like an idiot. As I smiled Chris's eyes turned dark and there was a gleam in them. I couldn't stop my self from laughing. He sang the next couple verses and I knew Chris so well that I could tell he was nervous, but he hid it well. Then the band started playing louder and the chorus part came, this was my favorite part. When he started singing the chorus he looked over at me to see me smile.
