"Welcome Seniors!" Everyone around me including myself scream! Its graduation day! I finally did it. 12 years of school plus three online classes and after school makeup classes and I'm finally here, I'm finally graduating!

"Today is the day you move on with your lives, today is the day we part. Some will head to colleges and universities. Some will stay at home. Some will go find fame and glory! Others will settle down with a family. But one thing we all have in common is the memories we share together!"

The speaker, our class president, steps back and waves her hand at the screen then goes to her seat. A giant presentation starts showing each of the seniors and what they did during school. They flash through and I see Bella and Izack, then Jaxon and then me blowing a kiss to the camera. There are more pictures and some include me. I smile.

After it ends I hear the girl sniffling next too me. Even though I don't her I comfort her. We are seated boys one side girls the other. We are in gray and they are in orange. Our school colors. We also are sat alphabetical order so Bella is close to the back and I'm close to the front. Another voice goes through the mic.

"Congratulations students! I am one proud principal. This is why, not only did I get to know each of you and help you achieve your goals but this is the first year ever in our schools history to graduate 98% of our seniors!! Good job!" Everyone starts cheering and whooping and I see a few boys to my left pound a kid on the back.

"I am also proud to present the top twenty students of the school seated behind me. These kids worked hard this year getting straight A's, above average Act and Sat scores, and being involved in many clubs!" I looked around to see if I recognized anybody and I knew a few. Everybody clapped for them. "Now I'd like to present our board member Mr. Christiansen." A man stood. "I present these students and hope you would accept them as graduates seeing as they completed all the requirements and duties required of them." He nodded and sat down as the board member walked to the podeum.

"I accept these high school seniors presented to me and they are now graduates of highschool!" Everyone screamed. He nodded and put his hands up to sush everyone.
Will The front row of the girls please stand and exit through the right back corner? We will be starting the handing out of the diplomas.

Fourth row I'm second seat on the fourth row. This is going to be awhile.
Finally it came to my turn to exit. I followed the people in front of me and went down a hallway til we got to the front corner entrance. I stood there for a second listening to the band play. Then I heard my name over the speakers. I went and took my graduate picture. I jumped in the air:)

I walked up the red carpet to my smiling principal and board director. I shook their hands and accepted my diploma. Then exited and head back to my seat. I clapped and screamed for each of my friends when their names were called. Jaxon heard me and sent me a kiss.

Finally after like an hour the names were finished. Our class president stood and asked us to sing our school song after that she grinned. "Seniors please stand." Several people cheered around me as we all stood. This is it!! "Please place your tassles on the other side signifing that you are a graduate." I reached up and moved mine over. "Congratulations you all graduated!"

We all screamed, some so loud I went deaf. I threw my cap in the air and caught it. I did it I graduated! Suddenly I was picked up and twirled around. I knew exactly who it was. I turned around and placed a giant kiss on his lips. "Congratulations Jaxon! And thank you there is no way I would have made it here without you!" I grinned and kissed him again.

"Don't thank me, you earned it" he smiled back at me. Then he nodded towards a grinning Bella running towards me.

"Omg I'm going to miss you so much!!" She threw her arms around me and started sobbing. "Your going to have to text me everyday ok?" I laughed. She is so dramatic, I love her. "Bella you don't leave til august, your my maid of honor, you have to be here for my wedding and your going to college in the next town over."
"We'll I know but still. You know what I've been thinking? What if I meet my future husband there?" I stare at her a second.

"Wait what about izack?" Her face fell. "We broke it off yesterday. He's going to Kentucky for school. Its too far to work." She sniffles. "Oh Bella I'm so sorry." I give her a big hug. "Its going to be ok, your going to find someone so much better. Don't worry." "Oh thank you Kate! Your so right!" She steps back and wipes a tear.

"Can I have my wife back now?" Bella gives Jaxon a look. "She's not your wife yet. Come on, you have a week."
"I'm just excited ok?" He says wrapping his arms around my waist and putting his head in the crook of my neck. It makes me melt.

"Let's go, the party is tonight. We have three hours." I'm so excited for the graduate party at the outdoor pool. It's going to be so much fun! "Ok." He takes my hand and we leave.

Let's just say that party was so much fun I can't even put it into words. Probably because it is too remain a seniors secret.😉
