*One Month Later: Graduation*

I throw my cap up in the air, and go over to Cody. He hugs me, and Carly comes over and squeals.

"We're OUT OF HERE!!!" She yells, making Cody and I laugh.

"Okay... Let's go get pizza and Disney movies to celebrate." I tell her, a life long tradition of ours.

"Yyyeeesss!!" She squeals, running off.

"Am I allowed to be apart of this?" Cody asks from behind me, wrapping his arms around me.

"Yes, if you want to hear us sing literally every song they sing." He laughs.

"Sounds fun." We get off the football field, and meet up with our parents.

"Hey dad." His father claps his shoulder, and goes off with him, most likely telling him something important.

"Great job, sweetheart." My mom tells me, hugging me.

"Thanks." I smile. We all leave, and Cody pulls me aside.

"We have to go live with Grandma for a bit. She isn't doing so well." I give him a look.

"As in?" He laughs.

"She can't do as much as she used to. Nothing major. But..." He leans into my ear, whispering. "We could have our second wedding two weekends from now." I nod.

"Okay." We get in the car, and gather our clothes. Carly, Connor, and Drake decide to live with us, despite our parents telling them to give us space.

As if we would care.

We sit in the movie room, Cody and I snuggled up, Carly and Carter on the ground, his head in her lap, and Drake next to Grandma, who looks very happy.

"Let's get this started!" I hit play, and Aladdin comes on.

"Awe, Riley, look it's your love story." I laugh.

"Well, he didn't have a genie, magic carpet, a monkey, or a psycho in between us. So nah. Not at all." Cody sits there looking at me, as I watch the movie with the others.

By 5 AM, we all fall asleep in the movie room, none of us really wanting to get up.

"Come on." Cody picks me up bridal style, and carries me to our shared bedroom, putting me down softly on the bed.

"If you're trying to seduce me, it isn't working." I mumble, still half asleep.

"Damn." He mutters, and kisses my neck.

"Go to bed, you horny bastard." I gripe. He huffs.

"Fine! Geez wanting to seduce my fricking wife and this is what I get." He complains, turning and flopping on the bed.

"I love you!" I grin, laughing at him.

"Psh, sure you do." He grumbles, and I fall asleep.
