People were still chatting and laughing around. Char, joby, Krist and I were all leaning on the guys clearly tired from the dancing.

After minutes of telling Alex off -the guy just won't take no for an answer- Liv came to sit next to us

Krist sighed heavily and like some sort of mirror everyone immitiated her

"Who feels like getting out of here" I asked

"Me" everyone replied with little to no enthusiasm.

"The night is still young, I don't feel like going home but I also don't want to stay here" Terah answered and he sound worn out

"Let's go to the goddess" Joby suggested

"The what?" Krist asked

"It our special place, you will see what it's about " Randy replied

"Guys I'm too tired to drive" Bart replied

" I will drive" Ian suggested

"No " every one said together and we laughed

"I will drive" Terah volunteered and we all agreed

I gathered my very long dress in my hands, Bart helped me to stand up, and we all went into the car

I pulled off the detachable skirt from the long dress and I was so glad that I bought a dress that has detachable skirt.

------

After a long time we got there, Krist had her mouth wide open clearly astonished by what she was seeing

We all had our camps set up from the last time. I went into my camp and pulled out a skinny jeans and black sweater which had written on it "STILL DON'T CARE".

I gently placed my dress inside and changed into the sweater and jeans, then I changed my silhouette into converse

"Uhhh just in case you guys haven't noticed, I don't have a cloth to change into" Krist said.

Once you get to know Krist you find out that she is not really that shy, more like crazy.

"Hey, you should be my size, let me get you something to wear" Joby offered

A few minutes later Krist had changed into black leggings, a red nike shoe and grey sweatshirt that fitted her just well

We all laid down on the grass and looked up at the moon

"You guys have to spit it out, I know something is wrong with all of you" Char stated

I looked up at the stars and tears clouded my eyes

" I'm afraid, I am afraid that I might lose you guys and you've been one of the best thing that has ever happened to me. I am going to a college that is far away from here, and I feel like we would just be strangers when we see again" My voice was shaking when I spoke, the tears threatened to spill out

Everyone slowly agreed saying same or yea.

"Yale" Ian said the college he is going to.

"Wharton" I answered

"Standford" Terah said

"Caltech" Randy answered

"NYU" Bart said

"MIT" Char answered

"Boston university" Krist said

"Brown university" joby replied

"Havard" Liv said and everyone looked at her, we were stunned.

"Hey, I might love make up and all, but I'm not dumb" she said and everyone laughed

"As much as we all hate to admit it, we  are going out separate ways" Bart said lowly and slowly

"We might as well spend the little time we have together" Liv said

"Years have passed by and we've had our good and bad memories, i'm also afraid of what the future might hold" Ian said truthfully

"We'll always have unknown factors in our life, we might dive into the unknown. It's kind of like stumbling into the dark, even though it might be scary, you just have to fight through it, take it head on, with your chest put and chin up. Because if life hands you a lemon, you might as well chug down the lemonade like a freaking boss" I said and a few people chuckled or sniffled.

While still looking at the stars, I felt the tears beginning to peek

"I am going to miss when I buy you ice cream just to calm you down, but you end up getting brain freeze, and you get mad at me again" Bart whispered just low enough for me to hear

"How you bounce up and down just because I got you your morning coffee" he continued

"I am going to miss how crazily stupid you look every morning, also how amazinly good you smell and how comfy you are" I whispered to him

"I can't point out a particular moment when it all started" Terah whispered as the fresh wind blew in my hair

"Who remembers the day Tessa barged out of the cafteria and she threatened Bart in class, oh! and how Bart spilt beer on her and wouldn't stop shaking in fear the day after"   Joby said

"And, how Tessa pranked him in return. Remember when we first met tessa, joby looked like she would pee her pants?" Randy said laughing

"Hey! she looked completely intimidating" joby defended herself and we laughed

"Wait, all of these happened?!" Krist asked in shock, and everyone laughed.

"It's been two crazy years" Joby said, and I nodded.

"I'm going to miss how much Liv and Terah fight, and how stupid and smart Ian is at the same time, how cute Bart and Tes are. How caring Char is and how amazing Randy is, if I could change anything I will definitely not change pouring meatball and spaghetti on Randy, and meeting you guys, thank you guys for making my senior year memorable" Krist said and we all smiled at her.

We all talked about how we would always keep in touch, and how we would attend each other's wedding in the future. How we would probably be video chatting with our future children running about. See, we don't make huge plans like that, but at that moment it didn't matter, I loved all of these guys like crazy.

It was child's play, it was a fairytale, but at that time we all chose to live it. We chose to ignore and not think of the harsh realities

At that moment I looked back up at the sky and hummed to myself.

I realized that in a month or two when everyone will go their separate ways, we would all still be under this same sky looking at this same moon, so why worry?

I opened my eye and looked at my friends, the way they laughed like they will never again, it brought me joy.

Then I closed my eye and savoured in the moment, I wanted to feel it so it will never end.
