Best Friends For Life

Chapter 14. True Love Is Real.

Dan's P.O.V.

We finally found a parking spot and parked the car. We just sat there in the seats for a few seconds trying not to freak out even more. Phil leaned over to me and pressed a small kiss upon my cheek.

"Until we get through here." I giggled and nodded.

We turned and got out of the car and walked in the building hand in hand. As soon as we stepped foot inside, we panicked. It was huge inside. Much bigger than our big school. Probably the size of two football fields. Our hands started sweating as we ran around trying to find the rest of our class.

We took a few turns until we found them in the tunnel.

"There you guys are! We were just about to start! Hurry up and get in line!" Phil squeezed my hand before we departed and got into our formation in line. I was standing right behind the bully from months ago. Ya know, the one who shoved my head in a toilet and did something extremely wrong to me until Phil saved me? Yeah that motherfucker.

I didn't bother to remember his name. I was just so ready to be done with him and this school and live a happy life with my one true love, my prince. Right before we were going out, he turns around at me.

"Hey fag. Listen, I'm sorry for what I did months back. I, I didn't mean to be that way to you. And I know it probably messed you up pretty bad. After today, you won't have to see me ever again, alright? You and Phil can be happy and you don't have to worry about me. Okay?" I just shook my head earning a small smile from him. He turned back front and didn't say another word.

At least he apologized for what he did. But that doesn't make up for the fact that it happened. But also, if none of those awful things happened, then I probably wouldn't have gotten the opportunity of meeting Phil. So, I guess you could say everything happens for a reason I suppose.

The music then started playing throughout the arena. Groups of two starting piling out of the tunnel and towards the seats. It went by rather quickly that I didn't even notice I was next. The teachers gave us a sign and we headed out. We walked out and turned right and began walking to our seats. I looked around at all the people, getting quite nauseous. What surprised me was that when I looked up front, I saw a familiar face. My parents!

They were sitting right in front of me in the top. My father held up a "We're so proud of you Daniel" sign. While my mother held up a "We love you Phan!" sign. I blushed like mad when I saw it. Thankfully Phil wasn't too far back. I pointed to him and then at my parents. He took a quick glance up and started laughing and turning bright red. It was great. My parents even shipped us together.

After everyone was finally seated, they began the ceremony. I just tuned everything out honestly. All I wanted to do was walk across that stage and into my lovers arms.

I guess I got my wish because right then our row was standing up and moving towards the stage.

This was it. The big moment that I've spent 12 years of being bullied and worrying about deadlines and homework for. Everything I've worked so hard for. It's finally here.

Moments went by as the others in front of me walked across. And then, it was my turn. The lady on the intercom who was reading out the names looked at me and began.

"Daniel James Howell.." I could hear the crowd clapping as I started walking across. I made sure not to trip over my own two feet. I shook the principles hand and got my diploma. I walked off the stage where the camera man was taking pictures. I smiled as wide as ever, proud of myself in this moment.

After that we walked back to our seats and waited for the rest to finish. When it was Phils turn, I clapped and yelled for him. I was so proud of everything he's done. He's the most amazing person in the world.

After the ceremony was over, the principal started talking about things. Most of which were quite boring but I tried listening out of generosity.

"You all have come so far these last years. We've seen you change from boys and girls to men and women. You should all be proud of yourselves for your accomplishments. We cannot wait to see what the future holds for you." I looked back at Phil and we smiled. "So, if you may rise please."

We all suddenly stood. "Please take the tassel from the left side and move it to the right side. Congratulations class of 2015! You've done it!" We all then threw our caps up high in the air. Everyone was screaming and clapping with joy. It was a joyous moment.

Once me and Phil got back home, we kept the promise. We got out of our nice clothes and into boxers. We just laid in bed the rest of the night snuggling with each other in peace.

Everything was so nice and beautiful. Just holding him in my arms made everything seem so much better. We might have even slipped in some sexual times but hey, i couldn't help it. I did have the most hot and beautiful fiancé. So I wasn't going to miss that opportunity.

That night i fell asleep to the sound of Phil's beautiful voice. He began singing different songs randomly and eventually I just passed out. His voice is just so angelic and beautiful. I'm so glad I get to listen to it for the rest of my life. Boy, I am sure the luckiest man on earth. No matter what anyone says, true love is real.
