"michael, please help me. Please!" I heard luke scream. I began following the sound of his voice in what felt like a maze. He'd disappeared when we were walking and i'd been looking for him for hours. Suddenly, he appeared. Tuesday was with him. "You didn't think i really needed you, did you?" He scoffed and began lip-locking with Tuesday. I fell to my knees, placing my hands over my face, silently crying.

my eyes popped open and i actually froze. "michael?" i heard a knock on my door. it was luke. "Hi." he walked over to me and sat on my couch. "Are you okay? You look a bit sick." I asked.

"i'm fine." He replied. "What brings you here?" I asked changing the subject. I wanted to invite you to my high school graduation." He smiled widely. "When is it?"

"Saturday."

I dressed in my finest suit and made my way to Luke's graduation. I sat next to his mom and we made awkward conversation here and there.

The music began playing and they began calling names. "Tuesday Miller." The announcer said into the microphone. There were a few snickers, but the clapping over powered them.

"Luke Hemmings." He walked onto the stage like a cults. He nearly tripped over his own feet.

The six foot giant (his quiff anding an extra foot, making him seven) walked up and shook hand with two woman before grabbing his diploma and stumbling off stage. His mom and i laughed as he made his way of stage.

I began thinking about my non existent graduation. I was only a year from graduating when i'd dropped out. Luke was still the only person i remembered from the school.

Suddenly a teacher approached me. "Michael- Michael Clifford?" she smiled wider as she got closer. I had finally noticed who she was.

She was my sophomore Science teacher. "Marge! Look, it's Michael Clifford!" She smiled at me again opening her arms, obviously expecting a hug. I got up and hugged her as my old mathematics teacher approached and hugged me as well. I was swarmed with questions. "How are you?" "What brings you here?" "Are you coming back any time soon?"

"I'm just here for a friend." I said awkwardly. The ceremony was coming to an end and i could tell because there were multiple caps in the air. "Well, i've got to go, hope to see you around." I shook her hand and made my way over to the hemmings. Luke and his mother were taking pictures when luke gestured for me to come over.

I walked over and we began to pictures. He graduated. He was so happy and you could see him radiating with joy. We laughed and joked as he pretended his cape was a superman cape and began to 'fly' around like an idiot.
