Graduation

Lucas

I was laying in my bed, with my left foot crossing over my right. I am just watching some good 'ole Gordan Ramsey. There was soon a knock at the door. I groaned and got off the bed. I opened the door to my bother crossing his hands. "Don't you dare groan at me," he said.

"Oh shut up, what do you want?" I asked.

"What are you watching?" Clause asked.

"Nothing."

"You fucking donkey, it's fucking raw," Ramsey said on the TV. Claus looked at me. I just cleared my throat.

"Just tell me what you want," I said.

"Mom said we need to go to the mall to get our suits."

"Why?"

"We're graduating high school next week, and we're going to that party after it."

"We actually got invited?"

"Well, I did, but you'll be my plus one."

"Great, very good." I lowered my head. He placed his hand on my shoulder.

"Ness will be there."

"'Course he will, but what're my chances with him?"

"Pretty good."

"Bullshit." I walked in and sat on my bed. "Why do we even need suits for a night party."

"Well, the suits are for the after school graduation." Claus walked in and sat at the foot of my bed and turned off the TV. "You won't have a chance to be with Ness if you don't make attempts to talk to him."

"I won't ever have a chance with him, he's the popular kid. He's got all the girls over him, and his boys are his bodyguards."

"Damn, but you never know. He could like you too." I glared at him. "Yea, I'm aware that's highly unlikely. But it's worth a shot." I sighed.

"Fine, let's go." I stood up. I put my shoes on and joined my mom and dad in their car. We drove to the mall and upon entering everyone split up. "I thought we were all going to get a suit." Claus turned around and cupped his hands around his mouth.

"Payday and we're making good use of it," he said. I rolled my eyes and my dad came back and handed me some money. He winked.

"Don't spend it all at once," he said.

"You're the one that does that," I say.

"It's not my fault this place has the best things in history."

"Right, whatever you say, dad." He jumped and ran away and I walked toward the escalator. I soon found my way to the clothing shop. I walked in and a boy rushed to me. He looked like Ness but wasn't.

"Hello, I am Ninten and I will be helping you with your shopping today!" Ninten said very fast I didn't even recognize what he said.

"Uhhh, yea," I chose to say.

"Ugh, Ninten, you need to stop getting hyper before work," a very familiar voice said. Ness soon came around a shelving unit. He had a uniform on, so I assume he works here. He pushed Ninten away and sighed in front of me. "Sorry 'bout him pal, he likes to eat very sugary things before work." He tilted his head. "I recognize you."

"Names Lucas," I say reaching my hand out, I'm surprised I didn't stutter. He took it and smiled.

"That's where I know ya from, you're doin' that speech in front of the whole damn school."

"Sad, but t-true." And there is it, goddamn it all.

"Tough man, all I do is call people up." He then shook his head. "What can I do for ya?"
