Skip to graduation
Alana's POV
Today is the day I get to graduate from the hell hole most people call school. I can't wait to leave this place and move on with my life. I'm standing side stage waiting for my name to be called. It's really hot in the gym because there are so many people in here.
"Amber Curry... Jack Dail... Cameron Dallas... Grayson Dolan... Abigail French..."

"James Ippaviz." Great we're only up to ' i'  but that's ok because I'm a 'k'. Wait they haven't called Ethan out. They called Grayson, but where's Ethan. He can't miss this. I'm starting to panic, my hands are shaking and my palms are sweating. I look down the line of graduates on and off the stage and I can't see him.

"Olivia Jogever." I'm next. Fuck. Where is this boy. I don't know what to do. Ok, stay calm your going on stage now.

"Alana Killick." Alright here goes nothing. I walk up on the stage with a 'smile' on my face.
"Thankyou everyone for a fantastic year, and good luck with your future." I said then walked off into the line that spans across the back of the stage.

I look around the crowd while the principle continues to call out the names of graduates, but I still can't find him. He started calling out people with the last name 'Smith' and I still can't see my baby.
"And now our valedictorian will make a speech, please welcome Mr Ethan Dolan to the stage everybody!" Announces the principle. That little fucker didn't even tell me he got valedictorian!
"Could Alana Killick please step forward?" Ethan turns around and looks at me, gesturing me forward. I can feel my cheeks heating up, I probably look like a tomato.

"I don't think I would be standing here today if it wasn't for my beautiful girlfriend. She has helped me through the toughest times and also put me in them as well. This year wouldn't be the same without her and I'm so glad that she came into my life." He put his arm around my shoulder and pulled me in next to him closely.
"I reckon that this year group is the best group of people I could ever ask for and they are the funniest people I've ever met. So I wish everyone the best in their future endeavours and good luck to the class of 2016!" He said and we all chucked our graduation caps in the air as the audience erupted in cheers and applause.

"Baby, I love you, and this time I mean it." He said pulling me into a kiss.
"I love you to bub!" I say returning to the kiss. We both pull back and walk off the stage holding hands, to go and find our parents.

"Hey mum." I said pulling her into a hug.
"My little girl finally graduated! Ok stand next to Ethan so I can take a picture of you two." She pulled out her phone and snapped a quick picture.
"Ok mum we're gonna go find Sean and Lisa I'll see you when you come back from Germany." I gave her one last hug and then we walked off. I swear she's never here for me and I'm always home alone. She is always in another country for work because she's an author. Sue Grafton. She didn't take dad's name when they got married, because she had already started writing a series. Selfish, I know. I mean she's a nice lady but she's stubborn as fuck and always wants her own way.

"Hey Lisa, hi Sean!" I wave.
"Hey mum and dad." Says Ethan.
"Hey honey, hello Alana. I can't believe that you two just graduated, you're growing up to fast." Lisa eyes started to tear up.
"All three of you, yes even you Grayson, squish up next to each other I want to take a photo of you guys."
"Ok, 1, 2, 3! Wait that was a picture of me. Try again. There we go." She must have taken like fifty photos because we were standing there for ages.

"Hey Lana, there's a beach party with the whole year, you guys coming?" Asks Ellie.
"Yeah, wouldn't miss it for the world! Are you coming babe?"
"Of course, lets go and grab some swimmers, we'll see you there El." Said Ethan, grabbing my hand as we walked to my car. I took off the roof because it was stinking hot and I blasted some music.
"So why didn't you tell me you were the valedictorian! I was so worried when they didn't call your name out, I was like 'oh fuck, where is this kid!' and my hands were shaking and I had sweaty palms because I didn't want to graduate without you." I blurted.
"I was keeping it a surprise but I didn't think you would react like that. I'm so sorry princess." He gave me a peck on the cheek.
"Princess? That's a new one."
"Do you like it? I can stop calling you that if you don't bu-"
"Don't worry, I love it!" I grinned at him.
"Well I'll be right back, princess." He jumped out of the car and went to grab his swimmers and a towel.

"Hey guys, what did we miss?" Asks Ethan.
"Oh nothing yet the party is just starting! Come on." Grayson pulls us both onto the beach where pretty much the whole year group is.
"Imma go find Ellie and the girls, see ya later babe." I give him a peck on the cheek and run off to find them. I'm looking around and I see them sitting in the water.
"Yo dudes, what's going on?" I ask plopping down next to Lexi.
"Nothing much, but word on the street there's a surprise for you after the fireworks, but nobody knows what it is." Replies Callie.
"Oh ok, well I hope it's a good surprise other wise, no thankyou."
"Look the fireworks are about to start!" We all turn around so that we can see the other side of the bay.

"Wow! That was amazing, no where do I ne-" I was interrupted by a voice on the loud speaker.
"Could Alana please go to the parking lot, Alana to the parking lot. Ok you can go back to your dancing and drinking or whatever, unless your Alana then you need to go to the parking lot now. Thanks." Cam should become a commentator I mean that was gold right there.

I get up out of the water and start to walk to the parking lot. Once I get there I'm greeted by Grayson.
"Hey Gray, um why exactly am I here?" I ask.
"Well can you just put this on for me, and no I'm not gonna kidnap and rape you." He says handing me a bandana, and I tie it around my eyes.
"Ok cool, now that you've got that on just follow me." I could here him start to walk off.
"Um Gray, I can't exactly see so can you guide me, you goof."
"Oh good point. Alright let's go." He grabs my arm and we begin to walk.
"Are we nearly there, my legs hurt." We've been walking for about 5 minutes but I just didn't feel like walking.
"Yeah but don't take your blindfold off until I say so." He says.
"Alright, you can take it off now."
I look around and there are lanterns strung up in a circle of trees, a picnic rug with fruit and drinks and Ethan.

"Babe! What is this?" I ask, stunned by the beautiful atmosphere.
"It's for this..." he gets down on one knee and pulls out a small, pandora box.
"Alana, I promise to love you forever and ever and I hope you will to. So, will you accept this promise ring?" He opens the box revealing a rose gold, crown ring.
"A crown for my princess."
"Of course! I love you so much E." He slid the ring onto my finger and I pulled him into a passionate kiss. A flash goes off in the background but we ignore it. I pull back and nuzzle my face into the crook of his neck.
"Do you want to stay her for the night, I brought blankets and pillows." He asks, as we sit down on the mat to grab some chocolate covered strawberries.
"Sure, as long as I'm with you I'm happy." I smile falling sideways so I'm now leaning on his shoulder.
"Gray, we're staying so can you please tell mum." Grayson nods and walks away.
"You're the best boyfriend anyone could ever ask for but I'm really tired it's 2am, can we snuggle?" I ask giving him my best puppy dog eyes.
"Of course princess. I love you, goodnight."
"Goodnight Eth."
