*beep beep BEEP BEEP*
my alarm went off and i instantly hit it off because the sound of alarms are the most annoying sound in the world. jesse stayed the night so we could wait for connor and get ready together for graduation at my house.

it was 6:00am and I was tired, grumpy but also very excited and happy at the same time. i looked at myself in the mirror and then got in the shower. i hopped out drying off and putting on some jeans, a black shirt with pink lettering saying "laters, baby", and some shark socks.

i woke up jesse who was snoring on my bed but looked quite comfortable. "jesse wake up its 6:30am and connors gonna be here in 30 minutes you should probably get ready" i said then walked down stairs to make some breakfast. i decided to be simple and just make a bagel with some blueberry cream cheese. i made jesse one too and brought it up to the room and left it on the night stand for after he gets out the shower.

i check my phone and ate my bagel when i saw i had another dm from that myles boy.
@yourboymyles: good morning kailey, hope you are having a great one!
i smiled noticing he actually took the time to message me this which was really sweet.
@itskaileyy: goodmorning myles, i'm eating a bagel so it's pretty good.
@yourboymyles: wow lucky you! i had the basic frosted flakes for breakfast because jake ate all the lucky charms :(
@itskaileyy: sorry for your loss. also who's jake?
@yourboymyles: oh he's my brother. we are moving closer to work down near malibu, ca

i slightly laughed and thought it was sorta neat that he is also moving to california with his brother. after i laughed jesse walked out. "what are you laughing about?" he said and sat down on the bed eating the bagel i made him.

"oh just some guy named myles is moving to california with his brother too" i said and jesse slightly smirked. "why are you smiling like that??" i said sorta creeped out. "so who's this myles guy huh?" he said and i just rolled my eyes. "just some guy who dmed me yesterday" i said and shut my phone off and put my shoes on.

"hmm okay.." he said and the door bell rang indicating connor was here. "i'll get it!!!" jesse yelled running down stairs with the bagel i laughed and then decided to reply back to myles real fast.

@itskaileyy: that's so cool! i'm moving tonight with my best friends  after my graduation.
@yourboymyles: well, maybe we will run into eachother?
@itskaileyy: maybe! anyways i have to get going i have to get ready to join the adult world.
@yourboymyles: okay talk to you later! have fun at your graduation :)

i shut my phone off just as connor and jesse walked into my room with smirks on their faces. i just rolled my eyes and gathered my cap and gown. "come on guys get your stuff we need to get to rehearsals" i said so they would stop whispering about myles and i.

we loaded everything into the car including all our stuff for cali. oh yeah also connor is moving in with us it was a last minute thing but it's happening. we blasted some music and made our way to the school.

*after rehearsals*
it's now 12:00pm and we finally finished all of rehearsals it took so long because people kept messing around and not being serious. the actually graduation isn't till 5pm so we decided to go get some food from subway.

"so what do you guys wanna do till 5?" i asked since we literally have 5 hours and nothing to do. "well we could get some snacks for the roadtrip to cali?" connor suggested and we all agreed. first went to the dollar tree, then walmart, and target. "now we are loaded on snacks" jesse said and we all laughed and nodded our heads. now we have an hour and a half till graduation so we decided to head back to the school to get ready.

*skip to graduation*
we were all sitting in our seat with our caps and gowns on waiting for our names to be called and to walk across that stage to be handed our diploma and sent off to be real adults. "i am happy to announce our graduating class of 2020!" our principle said and there was lots of clapping and cheering. "christian ebert... connor franta.." jesse and i were cheering and clapping so loud for con and he was laughing and smiling while walking across the stage. "stacy nolan... kailey oliver..." i walked across the stage smiling as big as ever with my two best friends cheering me on so loud along with my parents, family and siblings. this is the moment i've been waiting for since 7th grade when jesse and i planned basically our whole entire future out and now it's time for it all to come true. "trevor reddit... jesse sanders.." jesse walked up and was smiling as big as ever and we all stood at the end of the stage waiting for the last few to be called.

con, jesse and i were all smiling too much and were too excited to even say any words. "that is all the graduation class of 2020 congrats!" our principle said and we all threw our caps in the air. we gave each other a group hug crying with tears of joy. my mom and dad walked over and we're crying as well and hugged me tight next we're my siblings they weren't crying but i could tell they were happy for me.

we got a bunch of pictures and then i got pictures with jesse and con. "oh my gosh guys we are officially high school graduates and real adults!!" i said and we all started jumping around with happiness. "i'm so proud of us" jesse said. we all nodded and agreed. "so ready to head to cali?" i said and they both yelled yeah.
