Abigail's POV Today is the day we graduate. Just a week before I was singing at prom. Yesterday, Mrs.Cecilia asked me to sing the national anthem. I already remember the whole thing so I don't have to practice. It really isn't hard to sing.
As I get ready for school, I remember I don't have a planed outfit for this day. In just a few minutes, I get something together. I don't know how I do it but I know all about fashion. I took out a white dress with a pink strap, it would look nice when I sing the national anthem. I took out white knee tights to cover a few bruises. I wore pink boot wedges. And a white long sleeve crop top to cover some more bruises.

From the pink ribbon down, you could see my dress. The pink bow stuck out so it would pop more. After school, I am going to take the sweater off. Jen and I are going to a restaurant for the first time since the beginning of high school. I went to school with Jen who was apparently ready with no outfit chosen either.
Once we got there, we went to the gym and got a robe then put it on. It is blue. We got separated by classes. I went to the microphone and said, "everyone please stand up and put your hand on your heart,"
The music turns on, I start singing *sings national anthem.* Jen walks to the mic and pops out of no where and moves me over gently so I don't fall. She starts singing, "Say My Name" By: Odesza. *start singing*
My class is the class before Jen so I have to go before her. I hear, "Abigail Danes," and I know that is me so, I walk on the stage and shake hands with the head master. I take my diploma from her and walk to the other side of the stage. I then move my tassel to the other side of the cap where it now hangs that I am done high school.
I sit down and wait. I see Laurence in the same class as Jen. I look at the both of them. I remember prom just then, then, I hear, "Jennifer Nguyen." I then look up and clap. She puts her tassel on the other side of the cap and I heard her say, "YASSS". I smiled and I watch as she walks back to her seat.
Jen's POV
God The National Anthem is boring! I mumbled some curses and waited until the song was over. I then walked up the stage and put up a song.
"I know that I'm running out of time (I want it all, mmm, mmm) And I'm wishing they'd stop tryna turn me off I want it all, mmm, mmm And I'm walking on a wire, trying to go higher Feels like I'm surrounded by clowns and liars Even when I get it all the way (I want it all, mmm, mmm)

I sang. Everyone stared and I smiled. I smiled and everyone danced to the music.

Everyone stared at my look and I smiled. Again. I then heard Sandra scream.
"YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" and we all laughed and danced
