::Laila Skye::

"Trey stop! I can't mess up my hair, I have to look good for graduation."

"Baby you look beautiful! Stop stressing over nothing"

"You keep touching my hair and I can't go up there looking a hot mess!"

"You're my hot mess!" He pulled me into a hug and kissed my lips softly.

If you're wondering, yes, it's graduation day! Everybody is at my house getting ready. Carmen and Ray finally got back together. Now they are inseparable, it's so cute! Izzy and Jacob had a couple of arguments but they are doing well.

As for Trey and I; I can't keep this boy off of me. It's funny and cute; we are in love! Throughout the school year we had a couple of arguments. It was nonsense most of the time.

Trey and I are in my room getting ready; it's very hectic at the moment. I was curling my hair and he was putting on his tie. I laughed at his struggle, he sighed!

(( To see what the girls wore to graduation it's in the external link))

"Bae! I need help, this is complicating."

Someone knocked on the door; I stopped curling my hair and opened the door. Ray and my brother were holding their ties with sad faces. I cut my eyes brought them into my room. First I did Ray's, then Jacob's and Trey's tie. They are ridiculous and such babies!

Trey went into the bathroom to fix his hair and brush his teeth for the third time! I laughed and finished my hair. I was about to take a picture in my mirror; then Trey came up behind me and kissed me on my neck. His hands were wrapped around my waist as he kissed my neck softly.

My head fell back onto his shoulder, I let out a soft moan. I felt him smirk on my neck as he kissed down to my shoulder. I started breathing heavier, "Trey, stop. Can we finish this later?"

"Too much to handle, huh?" He smirked and bit his lip as he backed away from me.

"Never too much to handle!" I laughed and grabbed him so we could take our picture.

I uploaded it to Instagram and it started getting likes immediately. I was what you call "Instafamous". I had over 550K followers, it was a blessing to have so many people look at my pictures and get to see pictures of my life and actually like them. Corny, but so true!

I grabbed my nude, diamond trimmed Jimmy Choo heels. We walked downstairs to see everybody running around the house. My Dad was getting the camera together, Jacob was looking for his phone and Izzy was helping him, Ray was trying to put on his shoes and let Carmen fix his hair, Carmen was fixing Ray's hair and putting on her last minute accessories and my Mom was combing her hair down and putting things that she needed in her purse.

I looked at Trey and he laughed at the sight of my hectic home! I went and finished Ray's hair while Carmen did what she had to do.

"You look beautiful Laila." He smiled and looked me up and down through the mirror.

"Thanks Ray! You look quite handsome yourself." I smiled and he blushed.

To be honest, Ray was one of my best friends other than Carmen. He was like a brother to me; I loved him! Ms. Nicole walked in the door with Iman and fussed at me for not having on my shoes!

"Laila Skye! Put on your shoes so we can take these pictures! You cannot be late to your own graduation!" She hugged me and rolled her eyes playfully.

Iman hugged me and watched as I finished Ray's hair. He kissed my cheek and put on his cap.

Iman looked at me like I was a Barbie doll, "Laila, you look like a life-sized Barbie doll!"

"Thanks sweetie!" I hugged her and put on my shoes.

"Are you excited for today Laila?"

"Yes and No. Yes because it will be the next big step of my life! No because I'm going to miss everybody when I go to college."

"I'm going to be sad and lonely when you and Trey leave for college."

"How about when I go to set up the apartment with Carmen; you can come with us and help!"

"Yay! That would be so fun, just let me know when you are going!"

"I WILL!"

My Mom started calling me from the backyard, "Laila Skye! Let's get this rolling!"

I sighed, "I'm coming!"

I ran out to the backyard and got in the little huddle. I stood between Carmen and Trey. Izzy was next to Jacob, who was next to Trey, and Ray was on the other side of Carmen. We took multiple group shots, and then we took individuals, then couples and just random Kodak moments.

The limo that was bringing us to venue pulled up to the house after we took our pictures. Trey grabbed our backpacks and brought them to the limo. We all got in and rode to the graduation.

::At The Graduation~ Trey::

We were in the auditorium waiting for them to call our names. They called everybody's name except mine. I was at the end, unfortunately.

"Last but not least, Mr. Trey Avery Young." I got up and went to accept my diploma. I heard a roar of screams and claps. I smiled and walked across the stage. I felt so happy and free! I was finally finished HIGH SCHOOL! After I went back to my seat I saw Laila turn around and blow a kiss at me. I caught it and put it in my pocket.

She laughed and we finished listening to the Closing Speech presented by the valedictorian and principal. The graduation was over and we went to meet our family. Laila went to hers and I went to mine. All of my aunts and uncles were there, my grandparents from both sides, some of my cousins and family friends.

I looked over to see Laila squatting down, talking to an adorable little girl. She kissed Laila on the cheek and hugged her tightly. I smiled, that's going to Laila with our daughter after we finish college. I can't wait to have a family and grow old with her. The tiny girl scrunched her nose and Laila pointed towards me and the little girl waved. I waved and laughed as she talked to Laila. Laila got up from the squatting position, picked up the little girl and came over to me.

"Hey baby." She kissed me and smiled.

"Hey, who's this little sweetheart?" I smiled as I pinched her cheek softly.

"This is my adorable but, crazy niece. Her name is Brooke, but we call her BAP sometimes."

"Why BAP?"

"Her middle name is Aubree; Brooke Aubree Perez. My cousin's daughter."

"She looks like you and Elijah!"

"Yes sir! She acts just like him and she has my stubbornness. Say Hi Brooke!"

She smiled and waved at me, "Hi!"

"Hi Brooke! I'm Trey, your Aunt's boyfriend."

"Are you my uncwle?"

"Ask Laila, it's up to her!" We both looked at Laila.

"Yes Brooke, that's your Uncle T."

"Okay Tee Tee! Can I go by Uncle JJ now? Pwease?"

"Okay, Brooke. Be careful; don't fall down. It's going to mess up your dress!" Laila told her as she ran off to find Jacob.

"How old is she?"

"Three. Brooke is my cousin's daughter. My cousin is basically like my brother because my parents raised him along with my grandma since his parents passed away in a car crash. She is a mess! I love her though."

"I can tell, she reminds me of you." We laughed and just talked for a minute.

Carmen ran over and interrupted our conversation, "Laila someone wants to talk to you! They want to congratulate you. Come with me."

She pulled Laila away from me and brought her over to somewhere in the parking lot.



::Laila Skye::

Carmen pulled me away from Trey and basically dragged me across the parking lot. Some boy was standing next to a white escalade in a suit. He turned around and smiled ...it was Damien. I smiled and hugged him.

"Congratulations Laila!" He said as he hugged me.

"Thanks D! What made you come to my graduation?"

"It was the least I could do. Since that whole situation went down and I wanted so show you how proud I was! You've come so far Laila! Now you're going to USC for college!"

"Yes sir! Carmen and I are going during the summer to set up our apartment. It's twenty minutes away from campus. You're going to have to visit sometimes."

"Only when Trey isn't around he might strangle me!"

A voice came from no where, "I just might," we turned around to see Trey standing there looking pissed.

"Baby, no! Please stop! JUST STOP! You need to learn to forgive people, Damien has reached out to me. He tried to reach out to you but you rejected it. I won't forget what he did but I FORGAVE him! It's graduation day, by the way. NOT START MESS AND ARGUE DAY! I'M SICK OF ARGUING AND I'M SICK OF CRYING AND I'M SICK OF ALL OF THIS BULLSHIT! Trey let me finish talking to Damien, I'll be back in a minute."

He walked away and we went back to talking, "Well I guess I will go. I'll see you around or soon?"

"Yes, definitely." I gave him a hug and was about to walk away.

"Laila wait!" He grabbed a large bag out of his car and brought it to me.

"What's this?"

"Some things you might need in the future!" He winked, got into his car and drove off.

I walked back over to everyone; they were still talking! I went over to Carmen, Ray, Izzy and Jacob.

"Where's Trey?"

"He went somewhere around the building. I'm not really sure." Izzy replied.

I nodded and started walking around the building, there was just a grassy field in the back. Why would he be back here? I walked around a little bit more to see him sitting on top of a ledge on the building.

"Baby?" He looked up and half smiled at me.

"Laila, I really don't want to argue. So can we talk about this another time?"

"Trey Avey Young, I don't want to argue. I just want to talk, now help me up on the ledge."

He stood up and grabbed both of my hands, this boy was strong. I sat next to him and laid my head on his shoulder. He intertwined his fingers with mine and we started talking.

"Can you tell me how you feel?"

"I feel like your relationship with Damien is getting a little more than it needs to be. I just don't want you to leave me Lai. I love you, I'm in love with you."

"Damien and I have a friendship, he's not my boyfriend anymore and he never will be again. Ever heard of been there done that?"

"Well, we've been there done that?"

"The thing is, my love Damien was gone quicker than a lighting strike. Yours never left baby, it's been there since day one. And, that's the truth."

"Show me."

"Show you what?"

"Show me how much you love me."

I stood on the ledge and he held my hand so I wouldn't fall.

I started screaming, "WORLD! PEOPLE AND CITIZENS OF LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA! I WOULD LIKE TO ANNOUNCE THAT ... I LOVE TREY AVERY YOUNG AND I WANT TO HAVE HIS BABIES ONE DAY!"

I sat down and he started laughing, "What? It's true, I do want to have your babies. They will be so cute! Curly hair, brown eyes or green because of our dad's, pretty skin, and gorgeous personalities!"

We laughed and went back to talking; and was interrupted quickly.

"Trey, Laila! It's time to go. We have a reservation at Copeland's for 1:30! We still need to go back to the house." Ray exclaimed and ran back to the front.

Trey jumped down and then helped me down; I grabbed the bag on the way to the front of the building. Carmen, Izzy, Ray and Jacob were waiting by my car. My parents were walking to their car with Jacob and I's gifts. I popped the trunk to put my bag in the back and so Ray could sit back there; and talk to us as we ride.

I have a range rover; Ray wouldn't suffocate if that's what you were thinking. As we drove to my house we listened to A$AP Rocky and Kendrick Lamar. We pulled up to the house and got out quickly. I got a text from Damien as soon as I grabbed the bag he gave me.

Damien~ Hey Laila! Don't open or let anyone else open the duffel bag I gave you today. If you have questions ask your grandma. Bye!

I was confused but I did as told. I brought the bag in my room, put it in the corner of my closet and left it alone. Trey put his outfit across the bed and started to freshen up. I picked out my pink high neck crop top, acid wash skater skirt, and all white vans. Trey had his diesel beige jeans, bandana sleeve tee and retro 3s. We got dressed and ran downstairs.

((Laila's outfit was inspired by mah sis outfit on Polyvore. ~go look at her Polyvore to see it-- its kaylathecreatorx . Her outfits are gorgeous! Trey's outfit also came off of Polyvore))

My Mom and Dad were sitting our gifts in the living room. They finished and we headed to the restaurant. When we arrived; Ray and Carmen's parents were already there. Izzy's parents were stopping to pick up her grandma. Mrs. Young and Iman were pulling up as we got out of the car.

Since everyone finally arrived they seated us, in our private room towards the back of the restaurant. Everyone sat close to their family and chatted the whole time. After our drinks were served my Dad decided to make a toast.

He tapped on his glass at least three times, "May I have everyone's attention please? Thank you. First off, I would like to say congratulations to our beautiful children that graduated today. Second, I would like thank God for allowing every single one of us to see this day! Laila, Jacob I couldn't have asked for better children. I love you both! Trey, you are going to be one hell of a son-in-law one day! Izzy, thank you for being a perfect girlfriend to Jacob. You've kept my boy in check! Carmen and Raquan, you are amazing friends to both of my children and I love you both like you were my own! I love you all, I couldn't have been blessed with a better family!"

Everyone clapped and cheered. I laughed and rolled my eyes with my brother. He gives that speech at every graduation! He gave it when we graduated fifth grade! My Mom signaled me to get up and say something. I got out of my chair as my father sat down and began to speak.

"Hey y'all. Well, I'm not really good at this so here I go. I want to thank God and our families for letting us see today! Without all of you I would be on the street doing something I had no business doing. Each and everyone of you have impacted my life. Mom, Dad I know I may be a pain but I love y'all. I want you to know that I never take anything for granted. Jacob, I love you even though you annoy me all the time. I couldn't ask for a better brother. Trey. Mannnnn, I love you dude. It's not even funny; I'm not even a full adult yet and I know I want to grow old with you. Ray and Carmen y'all will be my R.O.DS forever! I love y'all so much and Izzy; I can't wait until you become my sister-in-law one day! As for the rest of everyone here today; I couldn't ask for a better family. I love y'all and thanks for being there for me; even when I looked like I was about to shatter into a million pieces."

I sat back down next to my Dad and he kissed my forehead. I smiled and a small tear ran down my cheek. I was finally happy again, finally happy! We all talked and ate until around 4:30. Iman wanted to come over by my house while I opened my gifts. So, her and Mrs. Young came over to the house. I started off with the biggest box. It was a box that was filled with stuff for my apartment. It was a comforter set, gift cards and much more. It was from my parents.

I also received jewelry from my grandparents, money from my family in New Orleans, a brand new professional camera from Mrs.Young and Iman, Izzy and her family got me college gear, Carmen and her folks bought us both gift cards and stuff for the apartment, Ray bought me a whole bunch of clothes and crazy beanies and Jacob bought me an iMac for the apartment since I wasn't taking my one from home.

There were two boxes of shoes left on the floor. I opened them to see a pair of customized Jordan's that I designed when I was five. They had graffiti and my name on them; the only people that knew about these were Elijah and Jacob. He had his customized Jordan's too. We both looked at each other in shock.

We both shook it off and went back to our gifts. Trey was on his way to my house at the moment. He was at his cousin's house hanging out with them for a while. The doorbell rang after thirty long minutes of picking up gifts and transporting them to my room.

Iman opened the door to see Trey with a gift bag and a duffle bag in his hand. Iman hugged him and ran back into the house. I walked down the stairs and ran up to him. He dropped his bags and grabbed me by the waist. I wrapped my arms around his neck and we began to make out . . . by my front door.

"Uhm, excuse me?" We kept kissing.

"Laila Skye Perez and Trey Avery Young." We stopped to see my mom staring at us.

"Sorry mom." I giggled.

"Can y'all go do that upstairs? Trey, your mom and sister is about to leave." He nodded and gave them a hug and kiss goodbye.

I did the same and we walked them out. We went back into the house and my Mom went straight to her room. I looked at Trey and he gave me that "let's finish what we started" face.

"Baby, I will make out with you but I don't feel like having sex. I just want to cuddle and talk."

"Okay, baby. But first! Let me give you your gift." He grabbed the bag and gave it to me.

It was a large bag and it was heavy as hell! I opened it and saw a Louis Vuitton handbag, three small boxes and a shoebox. I grabbed one of the three small boxes; I opened it to see a diamond necklace that spelled out my initials. The second small box contained more charms for my charm bracelet. The last box had a lot of pictures and trinkets that we kept throughout senior year.

I started to cry, "Baby this is so sweet! I love it!"

"Laila, why are you crying?"

"I'm finally happy again! I get to live my life in happiness!"

He smiled and kissed me softly. I laid back on to my bed and he hovered over me; while laying soft kisses along my jawline and neck. Trey ended up giving me three or four hickies. Oh joy!

After a long while of making out and small attempts to get nasty. We finally changed into our pajamas, layed down and cuddled. I ran my fingers through his curls and traced my finger along his face.

"Baby?"

"Trey?"

"How are we going to do this long distance thing when I go to NYU? I have to go set up my apartment in June. Will you come with me?"

"Babe, this long distance situation will work out just fine. We just have to stay faithful, trust each other and talk almost every day. I'll come to help with the apartment. Will you stay there after it's finished?"

"I'm coming home for three weeks, then I'm going back. We won't see each other until Thanksgiving."

I pouted and sighed, "I don't know what I'm going to do until then."

"Well for now . . . we can spend endless time together! I don't want you to leave either."

"Trey? Are you serious? I'm going to be in apartment at least forty-five minutes from home. I'll be with Carmen and on campus. I'll be visiting home at least twice a week. You are going across the country."

"But, who's going to cook for me? Who's going to kiss me and hold me when something goes wrong. I can't have sex with you through video chat Laila."

"Well some one is going to be doing a lot on his own now. Just don't go fucking other girls just because you're horny. If you do . . . it will be the end. For you and the bitch."

"Calm down Lai, I wouldn't do that to you." He kissed my forehead and pulled me closer to him.

"I love you."

"I love you too Laila"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
