"As I call up your names, please proceed onto stage." The principal called out, on the graduation ceremony.

"Where's Akashi?" Ayumi asked, tilting her head before staring at the fluffy white clouds that hovered over the blue sky.

"Ayumi, ever since the past few years when you were discharged from hospital you've grown an unhealthy obsession over Akashi. I'm starting to wonder if you're going 'sasaeng' over him." Sara reminded her friend.

Over the past years, Chijuro started to become closer with another group of friends, but she still remained great friends with Ayumi, Aiko and Sara. And Aiko and Ayumi has had a really tight bond with each other. Speaking of Ikumi, well she did pretty well after the fight, she disappeared for about two years before coming back. And lastly Tora, well she kept her distance with Ayumi, not daring to bully her again, they ended up becoming friends along the way, as they tried to sow the patches together again they just kept reopening, but they're friends now.

"Tora Hanae." The principal called out.

As Tora walked up to the stage one last time, she bowed down to everyone before getting hold of the mic. "First of all, I enjoyed every moment of spending my time here at Rakuzan High, through the many ups and downs...." As she continued to speak, Ayumi fiddled with her fingers 'it's been a long few years hasn't it?' she asked herself before wiping a tear that slipped from the corner of her eye.

"Thank you, Tora Hanae. I now welcome to stage, Chijuro Akashi."

"I just wanted to say, I love you all, I love this way of living. Just waking up every morning, slipping my Rakuzan uniform on just makes me grateful for the fact that I can be with my friends, and I do have my own rights..." As the speech continued on, the whole school was bawling in tears. "Psh," Ayumi muttered to herself before crying too.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot Ayumi's father finally got counselled, and admitted he was wrong. Through the past years, they have improved their bond and lived happily, happy, because they still have each other to rely on. Even after Ayumi's mothers death, the small family of two never grew apart.

Ayumi soon moved out, but still visited her father often.

"Aiko Shinju." The principal called out.

As she walked up to the stage, she played with a lock of her bright golden hair. "Rakuzan high. What does it mean to me? Well it means my friends and my family, all together..." Aiko continued to speak her long inspirational speech, she smiled and left the stage.

"Ayumi Sazuki, please proceed to the stage."

Oh, it's my turn now. She thought to herself.

Slowly walking up the stage, she bowed down. "Rakuzan High, it means a lot to me, you know. Having my first detention, I developed a change during this period. Being a good girl, was fun getting great grades were great too. Being a member of the basketball club was a great experience. But one thing I learnt most, is that never give up on what you believe in, and that for me was love. Through the endless nights of lone and coldness, somebody bought warmth, light and happiness into my life, and I want to thank Rakuzan for this, for giving me this opportunity to be able to live, not just once but over and over again. I hope that you all have a great life ahead of you, stay strong live well, laugh a little!" Ayumi encouraged, before cracking up into tears. "I-I love you a-all!" she yelled before bowing down. "I'll miss you all!" She exclaimed before throwing a fist into the air. She elegantly walked back to her seat, wiping her endless amount of tears away.

Continuing with the graduation ceremony, they all happily chatted and smiled and laughed at each others jokes.

"I love you!" Ayumi screamed before walking out of the school gates for the last time.

No more teenage high school drama.

No more crazy people that would kill to get with someone.

No more failing grades.

No more laughing at Sara's so called failed art pieces.

No more fighting with Tora.

No more eating like pigs with Aiko.

No more being elegant with Chijuro.

And lastly, no more seeing Akashi on an everyday basis, no more watching him play shogi, no more quick heart beats for the man she loved.

No more pain. It's all washed away now.

"It feels good, doesn't it?" Ayumi mumbled to herself, before dropping all her school supplies.

Sighing, she walked away back where she belonged, home. Slipping through the door, she switched opened the lights and began to mourn on the floor. "I'll miss them, especially him." Ayumi muttered, as her heart ached.

She got up and cringed of what she saw, she took a shower she drifted off to sleep.
