kayden delamare

"flora annesley!" the principal called her up to the stage and she grabbed her diploma while her family, mine, sammy, nate and i cheered for her.

it sucked that we couldn't sit next to each other since it was; annesley, delamare, maloley and wilkinson. i really wanted to sit next to all of them but i just went with the flow and just stayed lowkey mad.

"once again, kayden delamare!" i heard my name and i didn't i had been called the first time. i got up and made my way to the stage. i greeted my principal with a smile on my face then grabbed my diploma from his hands.

"congratulations" he whispered and i smiled at him once again in a form of saying thank you. i froze in place still holding his hand while my family got pictures.

i walked off the stage then went back to my seat. i felt my phone buzz in my hand while i took my seat.

my baby💕😍: you looked beyond words up there.

baby girl❤️😍: thank you baby. i can't wait to see you up there getting your diploma and looking sexy while doing it

my baby💕😍: ✌🏽️😝, 😘

baby girl❤️😍: 😘

i locked my phone back then turned around to see sammy looking right at me. i send him a smile then turn back around so people don't think i'm looking at them and it just be awkward.

"nate maloley!" the principal called to him and all three of us plus i guess people who were here to see him also cheered along.

he grabbed his diploma then stopped to get pictures. he sat back down and i waited patiently until they called sammy up.

"samuel wilkinson!" i giggled slightly no one really uses his full except for me when i'm getting serious with him and probably his mom also. i clapped loudly and cheered making him turn in my direction and smile at me.

*(skip everybody else because no one really cares)*

as soon as we were allowed to leave, i walked around the arena trying not to get hit in the head with flowers or anything else while looking for sammy.

once i found him, i saw him talking to a woman that he took some features from which i figured could only be his mom, duh who else would it be.

since i didn't want to be rude and interrupt their conversation, i waited patiently until they finished talking.

as i seen the conversation die down, i walk up behind him and tap his shoulder which gets his attention.

he smiles at me then kisses me and picks me up like a cliché graduation couple picture.

after a while he puts me down and smiles down me while cupping my cheeks and looking deeply in my eyes.

"mom, this is my girlfriend, kayden. kayden, this my mom, lori" she smiles at me and i return. "it's so nice to finally meet you, kayden" she pulls me into a hug and i was pretty taken aback but hugged her back anyway then we let go after a couple of minutes.

she turns to sam and smacks him in the arm, "you didn't tell me you had a girlfriend, young man" she scolds him and start to feel a pang of hurt when she says that. i let him meet my mom before we were even together and i'm just now meeting his mom after three months of us dating.

"kayden, i would love to invite you and your parents to dinner over at our house tonight" she says and i smile at her, "we'll be there" i said then we talked a little longer.

i found out that he has a whole family. a brother, two sister and a dad. suddenly i start to feel like i don't know him like i thought i did.

"baby, your mom's calling you" sam notifies me and walk over to her, excusing myself from my sort of conversation with his mom.

"hey honey. congrats mija" my mom says in excitement and smile but it's kind of fake considering i basically know anything about my boyfriend that i've known for three months and i never knew he had any family. he always stayed with nate and i never questioned it.

"chica, what's wrong" my grandma asks coming over to me with a worried expression on her face. i changed my facial expression and made it into a real smile so my grandma doesn't worry. "oh nothing, abuelita" i said hiding the real truth because i don't think she'll understand.

"sabes puedes dime lo que sea" my grandmother told me in spanish (you know you can tell me anything). "i know, i know. i just don't think that right now is a good time" i told looking down at my shoes to get out of talking about it.

"eso está bien, mija" she gave me a sympathetic look then gave my arms a quick run then got into my mom's car.

"hey, was that your family" sam asks coming up to me from behind. "yeah, the family i told you about" i snap then walk off towards my car where my cousins are waiting for me.

i get in and drive to my house to get half of this day over with.

when i get home, i go straight to my room and flop on the bed in frustration. i lay there for a while then hear my buzz saying i got a text from someone.

i pick it up and see a text from sam saying why am i mad and why did i snap at him like that.

i roll my eyes and ignore it because he knows what he did.

i get up and change into something more comfortable, leaving on my amakeup so i don't have to re-do it.

the clock on my tv hits five and sigh in frustration since i just changed. that's when i just get over my small temper tantrum and get up to pick out a different outfit and lipstick.

i know, i know, seventeen (almost eighteen) and here i am still throwing temper tantrums because i don't want to change.

very mature kayden *sarcasm*.
