Arrest Me (Mature ZM)

Chapter 95

We processed out about ten minutes after I had walked back to the line. I knew the woman was pissed at me but there was nothing I could've done about the situation. When an officer tells you that he needs to ask you a few questions, you don't resist, especially when it happens to be your boyfriend. If she knew what had actually gone down, I think she would've been more pissed.

The kids who had saw Zayn hold his badge up were kind of awkward around me now, but it didn't matter. They thought I got questioned, which is much more PG than what had actually happened. I wanted to intimidate them. I wanted them to think I was some badass that was being questioned by the police at my graduation.

I had to admit that Zayn's idea had actually calmed me down. I was no longer nervous that I would fall because I wouldn't. I was no longer nervous that I would make a fool of myself because I wouldn't. In the end, Zayn would still love me even if any of those things happened. Besides, I would only be seeing Nicole this summer so it didn't really matter. Those assholes could mock me all they wanted; I would be having the last laugh as I slept with my hot ass boyfriend.

We walked out one by one onto the field as the band played the processional music. They sounded pretty good for once, maybe because they played it every year and were used to it. I walked out and looked straight forward instead of at the people. I knew that if I looked at them, I would get nervous and that's the last thing I wanted.

I hadn't realized how long the walk to the seats actually was. It took forever and I could feel the eyes of people on my body. I knew Zayn's eyes were apart of them so I didn't mind.

When I sat down, I finally looked at the people and I was glad I hadn't look while I was walking. There had to be at least 2,000 people there. I tried to search for Zayn but I couldn't find him. Of course, everyone else was able to find their parents and family members because there were so many more of them. It was basically impossible for me to find a singular person, so I gave up when the speeches started.

Our class president gave a sucky speech that was trying to be funny but really wasn't. People laughed to be nice, but all of the graduates were shitting on it as they laughed. She was such a kiss-ass that nothing was funny. She tried to reminisce about things that she was never a part of even though she was talking about them like she was there. I'm pretty sure she wasn't at any of the parties that some of the crazy stuff had happened at.

Our valedictorian gave an amazing speech that every applauded for. He was really smart and it was no surprise that he would have a great speech. He had always been nice to everyone, even me surprisingly. I love people that don't judge others for having sex. It was completely normal and natural; almost everyone would do it in their lifetime. I just happened to get started earlier than others.

Lastly, we had our principal give a speech that was amazing as well. It was only his first four years as principal so we were the first class to have him each year of high school.

At last, it was time for us to walk.

I could feel my nerves begin to pop up again but I pushed them down. They started announcing the class officers one by one. They each walked, shook the principal's hand, and took their diploma. The first row was finished in two minutes and then it was my row's turn. None of them tripped or did anything embarrassing, so I wasn't about to either.

My row stood up and the people ahead of me walked to their position. There were only two people ahead of me. I could feel my hands start to get cold and my heart start to race. The first person in my row's name was called and he walked out confidently. People applauded and I could tell which section of the crowd was his because they were all standing up cheering.

The guy shook the principal's hand, got his diploma, and then the person in front of me was called. As I stood on deck, my heart was in my throat. I knew that my body was shaking but I also knew that it wasn't noticeable. I took a deep breath as I watched her get her diploma and then my name was called.
