unexpected -Dane DeHaan fanfiction-

Chapter 29

Sorry for not updating. My mom decided to go to palm springs and well... I kind of needed a vacation but I'm back and I'll be updating much more frequently.

Kim's point of view

Today was the big day.

Today was the day all of my hard work and determination paid off.

Today was the day I graduated from Brown. 

Since I woke up today I have not been able to think straight. It's like my mind is off on some vacation and has left me to fend for myself. That feeling of abandonment is something I know all too well.

I lightly gave myself a bump on the head and decided it was time to get out bed so I could start to get ready.

"finally" I whispered to myself as my feet dragged themselves to the bathroom.

Once I was in the bathroom I walked over to the sink and rested my hand on it's edges as I closed my eyes. Whenever I closed my eyes all of my problems seemed to melt away. Before opening my eyes I sighed and then continued on getting ready.

After doing my hair and makeup I walked over to my closet and looked at my clothes with an expressionless face until I found what I was looking for. I carefully placed the long box on my bed and slowly took the top off. I silently awed in amazement as I held the beautiful white dress in front of me. The material felt like heaven on my skin as I put it on.

I nervously walked over to the mirror with eyes shut. I prayed to myself that I looked half as pretty in the dress as the mannequin did before opening my eyes. " uhhh............... " I couldn't believe what was in front of me. Up until this moment right now I had always thought of myself as average but the girl standing in front of me was gorgeous.

For once in my life I felt truly confident and I knew that I was going to be okay. When I first started Brown if someone were to ask me if I was ready for the world I would have said no, but that was then. Now I knew that I wouldn't be swallowed whole by the world because I had finally found myself. All I needed was something as simple as this dress to make me realize my true potential and see that I wasn't as useless as I thought.

With or without a boyfriend, all I needed was the person who believed in me and saw the true me when I couldn't see it. She was the one person who I wanted to love me. That person is my beloved mom I thought to myself as I looked down at the bracelet dangling from my wrist.
