twenty-six
"Oh my God, we are graduating tomorrow," Miette panicked as she grabbed Serena's hand.
Serena sighed as she was bored, everyone was at the auditorium practicing for tomorrow's day. The teachers had placed everyone in seats by alphabetic order.
The honey blonde hated being in the back, no one will be able to see her. She tried to spot her favorite raven haired boy but she wasn't able to see him as in front of her were a lot of people.
She shook her head as she decided to avert her attention to the practice. Meanwhile, Ash was trying his best not to sleep. His eyes felt very heavy but he knew it wouldn't be the brightest idea to sleep during graduation practice.
But, he knew the second Serena goes up to say her speech, he will be awaken.
He turned his head, but saw many students. But, to his disappointment he couldn't find the honey blonde anywhere.
"Serena, you'll now come up after the principal has spoken," A teacher says as the honey blonde stood up and went to the stand.
The raven-haired awed at the admiration of his girlfriend. She looked bored and tired but she still managed to look beautiful in his eyes.
Seeing how her blue eyes bright up the room. Currently, she was pretending to read out her speech.
Ash was disappointed that Grace hasn't returned from her trip. She's going to miss her beautiful speech that Serena had spent on the past days and weeks.
The whole class pretended to clap as Serena turned around. She felt nervous but that didn't stop her from trying to look for Ash. And, she did, a smile crawled up as he winked at her.
Now, the principal had returned and decided to rehearse the names. This causes everyone to roll their eyes as they wanted this to be over with.

"Do you want to grab something to eat," Ash had asked the honey blonde as the two entered the car.
She nodded her head as she averted her attention to a paper, "Is that your speech?" He questioned as she once again nodded her head.
Ash had decided to let her be on her own for the ride. He was craving Chinese food, and since Serena seem occupied he took the opportunity to drive to the closest Chinese restaurant.
As he pulled in the parking lot, Serena shot up her head looking at the restaurant. "We could of just went to your mother's restaurant." She said as she placed the paper back into her purse.
"Well, I'm craving Chinese," Her goofy boyfriend said with a cheeky grin. Serena giggled as Ash exited the car and opened her door. "Let us go, m'lady,"
Serena rolled her eyes, but took his hand as he wrapped it together as they walked in the restaurant. "I can't believe after tomorrow, we are officially adults." Serena said as we picked out a table.
A waitress walked by giving us two menus. "Yeah," Ash agreed as he looked at the menu.
After a moment of silence, the two had ordered their food as the waitress took their menus. "I'm so nervous about the speech," Serena admitted as Ash grabbed her hand.
"You'll do fine, I bet your speech is amazing," He exclaimed as Serena shook her head.
"Took five rough drafts," She whined as she grabbed her hair. The raven haired boy took a good look at her hair; definitely has grown. He remembered early this month it was quite shorter. "Why are you looking at me like that?" Serena questioned, snapping his thoughts away.
He looked at her eyes, "Serena, there's never going to be a day where I don't look at you like this," Hearing those words have caused Serena to get fluster as her cheeks have turned a redden shade.
The food arrived as the two digged in. Focused on only their food, since they had nothing to eat from early. Serena looked at the outdoors as she saw the sun ready to set. She looked at the her date in front of her, he was happily eating his spinach noodles.
After their lunch, Ash had decided to take a stroll to the park with Serena. Just to enjoy the sun setting, and he knew this will distract her from her worries about her speech.
And, he was correct, as Serena had her mind set on the beautiful scenery. "Ash," She stopped in her steps as he turned around to meet her eyes. "I want to say thank you," She said shyly causing Ash to chuckled.
"You don't need to say thank you," He began as he leaned closer to her. His body hovering over hers.
Serena shook her head, "I'm talking about the dare," She explained as he raised an eyebrow confused. "If you hadn't said yes, we wouldn't have reconnected. Ash, I have always liked you, since we were friends." She looked down.
The raven haired boy was surprised, how did he never noticed that, "You liked me?" He questioned as Serena nodded her head.
"It was the reason why Miette and Bonnie had made that dare," She scratched her cheek.
Ash nodded as he grabbed her hand, Serena looked down at their hands intertwined. She got on her tippy toes and gave him a kiss.

Can't believe the next chapter will be the last, my plan of having this book update daily was a terrible idea. Probably could of worked if I hadn't went to another country for two months. Having terrible internet can really make updating hard. Anyways, stay tune!
