After our prank filled night, we all slept in until 2pm the next day. I️ wake up and see Jake rolled over playing on his phone and Zeke was asleep on the floor. He must have fallen asleep in here. I️ don't even remember falling asleep.

Jake must have noticed that I️ woke up because he smiled at me and hugged me. Zeke stirred in his sleep and he woke up as well.

We spent the rest of the day watching movies and just chilling. We were all tired from last night still, despite the fact that we slept basically all day.

As we were all sitting on the couch watching 'Animal' with Rob Schneider in it, I️ started thinking about what's coming up in two weeks. TWO WEEKS is GRADUATION. Don't ask how I️ started thinking of graduation from that movie but like I️ said before, I️ was tired.

Senior year was known to be 'the year to remember.' Ha! They got that right. Weather I️ like it or not, I️ will ALWAYS remember my senior year.

I️ met Scott. I️ dated Adam. I️ was abused. I️ dated Scott. Jake moved in. Both were my neighbors. Scott taught me to fight. Jake taught me to ride. I️ got in a wreck and totaled my truck. I️ won fighting against Jake. I️ was kidnapped and shot. I️ met Zeke. I️ lost Scott.

More happened in my senior year than what happened in my who life along with most other people's life. Thinking about Scott again made my eyes water. I️ missed him honestly. Jake and Zeke must have noticed because they both reach over and comfort me. "What's wrong?" Jake asked me.

"It's just....graduation is coming up in 2 weeks." I️ say sadly. Both their eyes widen in realization that I️ was right.

"Oh shit!" Zeke said as he jumped up. "TWO WEEKS?!?" Jake and I️ just laugh and shake our heads. Why is he surprised? He's not even the one graduating?

"Yeah...two weeks." I️ repeat. We all went quiet, probably all thinking of senior year and graduation, or college or what we're doing after high school. I️ break the silence. "What are you doing after high school?" I ask Jake, since Zeke was already graduating.

"I️-I️ wanted to going into engineering." Jake states.

"Jake! You'll be great at that! You always know how to fix thing and stuff." I️ say truthfully happy for him as I️ gave him a hug. They both turn to me and I️ mentally curse to myself because I didn't 100% know what I️ wanted to do.

"W-Well.....I️-I️ wanted to be a doctor of some sort. I️ applied for Indiana University. I️ heard they have a great doctoring program." I️ say shyly. Both of their goals seemed so high, I️ didn't want to seem low. The both pull me into a hug and congratulate me too.

Two weeks. That's it. Then I'm off to become a doctor. I️ sigh. Just two weeks. Kept running over and over again in my head.

"Hey guys, I'm super tired and I️ should probably get home." Jake says. Zeke nods in response. "Bree, do you need to come with me?" I️ nod because he was my only way home. I️ hug Zeke goodbye and Jake and I leave.

Once Jake and I️ got onto his bike, he looks at me. "2 weeks hu?" I️ nod in response and give him a tight smile. I️ wasn't ready for college. I️ was barely making it through high school with all this drama. He starts the bike and I️ wrap my hands around his waist like always. Jake always made me feel safe.

Jake dropped me at home and I️ went to bed immediately. Tomorrow was Monday. The start of these last 2 weeks.
