June 3rd, 2014
We did it! We graduated. This day will forever be in my mind and I am glad he's apart of the memories.
From celebrating with our families to our last night with our classmates. June 3rd was a good day.
¤ Flashback ¤
"I am proud to announce the EastBrook Academy graduating class of 2014!"
Our caps fly up. Sterling and I kiss. We run up to our friends. I give Leena the biggest hug and Prince too.
"I can't believe we made it!"
"It's only up from here!"
"So excited for the future with you guys!"
We group hug. I can't believe we stuck it all the way through high school together.
Our final yearbooks are signed. My mom can't stop crying, her baby girl made it. It's a flood of amazing emotions.

Sterling is driving us home from the graduation party. He stops in a parking lot and reaches in his pocket. A small box is revealed. We get out of the car and he walks me up to an apartment building. He hands me a key and open up the door.
The lights switch on. I turn.
"Welcome home!"
"What?!"
"Welcome to our first home!"
"Oh my gosh!"
I'm overjoyed.
"What about all the stuff we need?"
"This has been my project. I've been saving and furnishing our place for the past six months."
"I can't believe this!"
"Amelia we're a family and this is our start."
¤ Flashback Ends ¤
We were a family and this was one of the biggest steps we took. All of my stuff was moved in within a week and our own little life was started.
The first big step of us living together went extremely well. Until the next big thing happened...
