Completely Broken

Epilogue

May 26, 2016 the day that we finally graduate from high school. Each of us going down separate paths to our future. Jace and I are still together stronger than ever. Now for Tony and Sarah he decided to give her another chance which I was thankful for. She really has changed for the better. She even apologized to all the kids that she bullied at our school.

There's no longer bullying at our school either. The principal and teachers have gone out of their way to prevent it. Students looking out for one another like how it should be. Now maybe once and a while bullying does happen. But the good thing is it’s addressed almost immediately.

As of right now I'm getting ready for the practice run of our graduation. The graduation will take place outside so that everyone can see our class graduate. We have definitely come a long way to get to this point. I still remember meeting Jace sophomore year and that changed my life forever.

Grabbing my keys I get in my car to meet Jace at the school. Yes everyone you heard right I have a car. For my eighteenth birthday my lovely parents surprised me with a car. Jace was even sad for a moment that I wouldn't be driving with him anymore. Deep down we both know he's happy about it too.

Nearly our entire class of two hundred and fifty kids were almost here. He was waiting for me in his car so I could easily spot him. Looking good as ever in his dress pants and shirt. Lately he's been secretive around me. I asked him and he said I'll know on the day of graduation.

"Are you excited to graduate? The last day here before we go off to college together. You and me without any distractions.”

Yes we're going to the same college. There's a college in Texas for dancers and musicians. We both got accepted and couldn't be happier. "I can't believe the day is finally here. Situations along the way have helped us get here." Laughing, we walked to the football field to meet everyone else.

Since the graduation would be held outside each row had a number. The first two were for the top ten percent and the others started with one to nine going with last names. Once everyone was situated the rehearsal began. Practicing how to walk to our seats and the speech I had to deliver as valedictorian.

It took me so long to get there but it was so worth it. Jace and the others helped me get there along the way. Dealing with my craziness during finals wasn't the best. During finals week Jace would help me study and always bring me coffee at odd times in the night. Doing that definitely annoyed him but since he loved me he didn’t mind doing it for the past two years. Now he’ll get to do it while we’re in college as well.

An hour went by until practice was over. Several more hours to go before we walk the stage and graduate. I told Jace to meet me at my house after this. His mom is already at my parents house. We are planning on chatting for a bit before going to do dinner.

For once I beat Jace to my house. His mother greeted me warmly when I entered. Our house was filled with decorations and pictures of me and Jace throughout the years. The picture of us at prom had me wanting to cry. That night was special for us. I still remember winning prom king and queen which was surprising.

The look on my face when I found out I was nominated was priceless. For a second there I got mad at Jace for nominating me. It was all worth it though when we won and had our first dance. That was the night he gave me a promise ring declaring the love we had for each other.

Knocking on the door brought me out of memory lane. Opening the door I gasped. Jace was there but he was with Cassandra. I practically jumped into her arms when I saw her. The last time she was here was prom and it's been too long.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention we're on good terms. A week after I tried to contact her, she called me. Explaining that she was sorry for not picking up when I called, scared I would be mad. Words were said and tears were shed. In the end we forgave each other wanting to put the past at rest. Ever since then she would visit me and of course Tyler. They are still dating and going on strong. They make each other happy which in turn makes me happy.
