Kats POV

It's been about a year since that happened. You might be wondering what happened the day after the dance... it was awkward at first but after a while we talked about it and I realized that those confessions had only made us stronger.

As I was saying a year has passed and every day I fall more and more in love with Jamie. Today is graduation day... and I am (once again) clueless as to what the girls picked out for me.

I get ready and as I slip on the dress I realize that it's kinda like the one I wore that day at the dance except it looks like a version for someone older and the flowers are brighter with sequins.

I smile as memories of the dance flood back into my mind. I still missed Noah but with help from Jamie I slowly began to accept the fact that I couldn't do anything about it. I also helped him accept the fact that his mom was gone and that his father wasn't ready to accept that yet.

We helped each other and I couldn't have been more happy. On another note, Genie and Joey are together and so are Amy and Derrick! They have all gotten accepted into the same collage. Me and Jamie will be assisting their as well in the upcoming fall.

We decided to get apartments close to each other and we found a few that would work perfectly. I honestly am a bit nervous for all of this because I'm moving out of the house in a couple of months. The girls all share an apartment and the guys share another one so that we wouldn't live all together and so that there wouldn't be any... mishaps with couples on their own.

So far we're all good but my old "friend" Lily got herself pregnant a few months but she managed to go through school and is graduating with us. Since the pregnancy she's changed and we are sort of friends now. Of course she's not a close friend but now she is a funny and a nice person. She apologized and I forgave her so that ended that.

Anyways, I let Amy do my makeup and Genie do my hair. My little sister stopped by and almost cried when she saw me. I gave her a hug and told her that I loved her. Me and her had grown closer since she found out about Noah. My parents told her a few weeks after the dance. She cried a lot after. Speaking of Noah, I forgot to mention that I had never shown my parents that letter that he wrote as his goodbye to the world.

Jamie encouraged me to take a look and I finally did... I wish I could have done it earlier because I would have understood so much more about all of this. I remembered so many things about him from this:

Dear loved ones,

I'm sorry that I'm doing this but I really don't want to go through life anymore. I've seen twelve years go by and I wish I could say that they were amazing but they weren't. I have seen so much sadness and hatred in my twelve shorty years and now I feel that life isn't worth all of it.

I love you guys though. I know people love me and all but I can't take all of these emotions. I feel so many emotions and yet I feel nothing. I could be happy but it felt numb. I was always thinking about why things are like this. Why are people so stupid that they don't see what they are doing to other? Why can't people just listen and understand?

I don't think anyone will answer these questions but I think that it's a good idea if someone found out. I'm sorry I had to do this to myself. I know that all of this is probably foolish but I don't feel like listening to others say that I'm not good enough and I'm tired of not being able to do anything about it.

I want you guys to remember me and remember this message that I left for you. Pass it on and maybe the world can become a better place... I want you to tell Kat about it when she grows up.

Tell her that I love her and that I'm sorry that I won't be there for her when she needs me later on. Please protect her and don't let anyone hurt her. I don't want her to do anything stupid like what I am going to do. Make sure she finds her Prince Charming and make sure that she ends up happy.

Kat if your reading this I am so sorry but I love you with my while heart and I hope you have a wonderful life. For the baby I want it to have a great life. It's due in a few months so please take care of it, whether it's a boy or girl. Tell them I'm sorry that I couldn't be there to see them born.

I love you all,

Noah

I had cried at the memories of my deceased brother and I still have his letter. I finally showed it to my parents and we have understood each other so much more since then.

I am now sitting in the chair that means your successful. I hear my name being called and I realize that almost all of my friends have already gone. I walk up and get my diploma. I watch as Jamie goes up as the last student. The selection is random so he's last even though his last name started with an A.

I watch as my boyfriend goes up to get his diploma. He shakes the principles hand and then whispers something in her ear. She nods and looks directly at me before looking back and speaking again.

I watch as he comes back, confused. He sits down and the principal starts talking. "Today these students are moving in with their lives. They are moving into the world and becoming part of it." she paused a bit. "But with moving into the world comes losing some relationships and building new ones. However, some relationships are meant to last forever... so we are all wondering if Kathryn Love would like to build a new kind of relationship with her boyfriend Jamie Andrews. If maybe she would like to build a stronger relationship that would last forever."

Jamie stood up and turned, getting in one knee. "What she's trying to ask is: Will you marry me?" I gasped as he pulled a velvety black box out of his pocket.

I felt tears flood my eyes as I nodded, shocked. "Yes." I said so quietly I doubt he could hear me. His eyebrows furrowed so I knew he didn't hear me. "Yes, Jamie! Yes, yes! A million times yes!!!" I jumped in his arms.

At that moment I didn't think that I could get any happier. I remembered Noah's last request "Make sure she finds her Prince Charming and make sure that she ends up happy."

I was defiantly happy. I looked up and saw that they had released the balloons and petals that were hanging above us before. I pulled back and Jamie put the ring on my finger as we kissed. I wanted to be with him forever and I didn't think that I could be happy without him.

Jamie's POV

She said yes! I have wanted to ask her for so long. I mean the second I saw her I had one of those daydreams that you get when you picture yourself loving someone for the rest of your life.

I remember that I had stopped at the doorway of the class, stunned. I saw her look up and her eyes meet mine. I felt my heart flutter. I needed to have her. I knew that at my old school I was considered a player but I thought 'for her I can change'.

I had overheard her weeks later telling her friend that she wasn't interested in me. I was sad at first but after a while I made it my mission to make sure she loved me back. That paper was the best thing that ever happened to me. Oh and by the way we got an A on the assignment.

I had fallen so deeply for her and I don't think she realizes how much I'm wrapped around her finger. I guess that what happens when a popular guy falls for the innocent, good girl. That's what happens when it's His Turn To Fall.
