This is what Juliette looks like. :)
" Juliette? " i hear a my mother yell at me from the bottom of the stairs.
" coming mother!" I yell back looking back at my final touches on my outfit.
I'm graduating high school today and than heading 6 hours away for college. I'm excited but nervous all at once."RAIN! You're gonna be late, lets go! " she yells again. I roll my eyes and make may way downstairs. I hate when she calls me by my middle name. Rain.
" Juliette Rain Jones you look stunning, that dress looks flawless on you " my mother spoke as I walked down the stairs.My mother picked a white sundress with some white and brown wedges. My hair was in a fishtail braid and put to the side( kinda like elsas) and a diamond necklace my father bought me before he passed away and my make up was done to perfection.
I notice my mother crying and I couldn't help but frown.
" mom, it's okay. It's just graduation" I smile.
" no my sweet child, it's not just graduation.. it's also move away for college day... " she cries again. I hand her a tissue and she smiled.. I hate to leave my mom behind but, my future is bright and I must do this." I'm ready when you are mother" I smile and grab some bags I brought down yesterday.
" wait, aren't we supposed to be waiting on Alex to get here? Didn't he want to come?" My mom adds. She's trying to stall. I nod and we wait till he arrives.Alex is my boyfriend of a year. He's the most handsome guy I know, he's smart, kind, caring and I love him to death.
" ALEX, our girl is leaving ussssss. " my mom says as she was carrying some bags outside to the car.
" I know, I hate it! " Alex pokes his lip out as a pout. I laugh." Guys it's only a few hour drive. I'll come every weekend and you can ever come some too. I'll miss you guys but please let's just spend today together and not worry about it till than? " I ask with tears threatening to show.
They nodded and Alex grabs my last bag and heads to the car. I thank them both and give Alex a big kiss.
" okaaaaaay you two! Stop sucking faces and lets go" my mother wined and I couldn't help but laugh.We arrive at my high school. And I'm dreading to get out of my moms SUV.
I want this but I don't want to leave this all behind.
" ready? " Alex smiles. I nod.As I walk into the big doors that I will not walk in again, I see my friends taking pictures . I walk to them and they all pull me into a hug. And we all take pictures. I'm gonna miss my girls. So much...
" So, college girl. Going to go to any parties there?" Aria ask. I shrug.
I may, I may not. I'm not the type to go." oh come on, Juliette You have to try one party, just one. " Leah spoke with a smile. I smile back an nod.
We walk in and take our assigned seats we got a few days before (ABC Order) oh did I mention my last name is Jones? Ugh." Kenzie Applegate" the principle spoke
" Ben Barkley"
" Abby Campton "
" Carson Denver "
" Aria Farley "
"Leah Horsley"
" Juliette Jones"
I stand and make my way up stage. My mom and Alex both clamping and I can see tears rolling down my mothers face. Alex has already graduated, last year. I grab my certificate and walk to my mother and boyfriend." thank you Class of 2017, you have been the best one yet. We will miss you all. You all have a bright and wonderful future ahead of you. Good luck to all of you. " my literature teacher spoke. She was my favorite teacher so far!!!
" Ready babe?" Alex whispers in my ear. I nod and smile. I'm gonna miss him the most. We stop by the big doors leading to my future and I make my mother take pictures of me and Alex. I want to savor this moment. I'm gonna see him less.
" Here." My mother hands me back my phone and I smile at the pictures. We look cute together. We head out of the doors and out to the SUV and the nervousness sets in.
I'm off to college...
