"I can't believe this day is already here," Caroline smiles at me from across the counter. "Senior year has flown by," I rest my head in my hand. "It's crazy," she nods in agreement. "It feels like yesterday I was helping you tie your shoes for school," Caroline chuckles "when did you grow up?" I shrug "Beats me," I chuckle too "I'm just lucky to of had you while I did."

"Oh Thena," Caroline walks around the counter and wraps her arms around my neck. "You'll always be my girl," she kisses my head "even if you really aren't mine, you always will be." My hands grab ahold of her arms. "You'll always be my mom," I tell her while resting my head against hers "even if you really aren't."

Caroline kisses my head one more time before letting go "Let's get you ready."

I was going to the hair salon in town to get my hair done, and then heading back home to meet Gemma so she could do my makeup. We were getting group photos done at Harry's house, but then myself, Harry, Eleanor, and Louis were heading to the cliff overlooking the wilderness out by the border of Potter and Jameson.

"Nothing too crazy," I look up at Pauline my usual hairdresser. "I see you got a little cut," she plays with my hair. "Needed a change," I smile "my best friend did it for me actually." She chuckles "Well if she ever needs a job you send her my way, this is grade A work."

Pauline, Caroline, and I all chat about my plans, the little ones, and Harry while my hair gets done. "This is simple," Pauline starts "but it's definitely cute. Fits you perfectly."

I look in the mirror and a smile forms on my face. "You did it again," I grin at her "I'm gonna miss you doing my hair." "None of that," Pauline points her finger at me before I give her a hug. "Thank you," I say to her "Anytime kid," she responds while pulling away. "You're always welcome."

We head back home where Gemma arrives just as we walked inside. "Honestly," Gem starts while we went up to my room. "I might start crying," I look over at her "Why babe?" I question before sitting down. "Thena your dress is just-" she pauses before taking my hands. "If it made Anne cry, it'll make me cry when I see you in it. Probably her too."

"You, Caroline, your mom, and Eleanor are the only ones who have seen it." I tell her and her jaw drops "I feel so honored," she tells me "let's finish getting you ready so we can make my brother cry too."

"Oh Thena," Zoe gasped when we met up outside of Harry's house. "Zozo you look so beautiful!" I grin and she covers her mouth with her hand.

"He's going to lose it," she says "there's no way he won't."

"Ash better of lost it when he saw you," I tell her and she giggles. "His reaction was pretty cute," Zoe admits "but Harry's will be the best one yet. I'm calling it."
