FYI, Ash turned 19 a while ago, I just forgot to add it, so... just go with it. And, Nathan is 16 now, Phoenix is 19, and Andi is still 18.

This is the last chapter! There is still an epilogue and stuff, but this is the last college Ash chapter.

And I find myself up at 1:00 A.M. yet again. Here ya go. Enjoy.

Ash-

I woke up from somebody shaking me.

I groggily opened my eyes. "Huh? Andi? What are-"

"Graduation!" She cut in.

I bolted up.

The tests we had been taking—finals—were hard, and exhausting. That was why I, apparently, slept past my alarm.

But, today was the day that I might be able to get back with Keiynan.

Even though I knew him as Mr. Lonsdale, he was always Keiynan.

"Graduation!" I repeated her, hopping out of my bed.

I saw Phoenix was there, and I was about to wake up Nathan, but then one of the babies started crying. I groaned. "I got her," I told them, instinctively knowing it was Addison.

I picked her up, rocking her. "Shh, it's okay baby, it's okay."

As soon as I said that, Ajax started crying. I groaned. "Andi!" I cried out.

She was already coming. "I got 'im."

After a little while, the babies finally stopped crying. Nathan stuck his head in the nursery. "Hey, looks like they're happy for our graduation!" I chuckled.

"But," I corrected, "it's technically not graduation. It's more of a... continuation."

Nathan groaned. "Fine."

There was still a small party being held at the school for it, and two teachers were chaperoning. Of course, Keiynan, and our math teacher, Ms. Berger.

There was a knock on the door. "I'll get it!" Phoenix called out. We heard her open the door, and then some mumbled dialogue before she screamed, "Ash, it's Colton!"

I handed a now asleep Addy to Nathan, and walked to the door. "Colton!" I greeted, hugging him.

"Ash!" He patted my back. "Happy graduation."

"Continuation," I correct.

Colton rolls his eyes and walks past me. "So, where are my grandkids?" He asked.

We'd decided that Colton'd be the twins' grandfather, though he'd go by "Papa", Nathan'd be the godfather, and Phoenix'd be the godmother.

When the party finally came later that night, Colton agreed to watch the twins. Andi was a little nervous, because she had never left them so late at night, unless they were with me. Still, she went.

The party was awesome.

Music was playing through the speakers; punch and food was on tables; there was a deejay at the front, but he wasn't a pro, just another student here; there was a dance circle; and there was him.

The school told us to think of it causally, not like a prom or anything.

I wore a light gray shirt and some black sweatpants.
