Today I am graduating college at Yale University. Last year I decided to switch back because I was just not feeling Denver. Spencer helped me pay for a babysitter while I am in school to watch Brendan. I have my own apartment but I do have a roommate, Desiree. She has been a great roommate. Spencer graduated from BIPA last year and lives in LA trying to build up his music career. I'm planning on moving to LA with Brendan to live with him when I graduate and hopefully find a job.

"Teddy, we need to go." Des said. "Oh don't you look cute. Doesn't mommy look cute Beanie?"

"Yes!"

"Well we are graduating and I do want to look my best!"

"I'm waiting." Des said.

I laughed. "You look gorgeous."

"Aw, you're so sweet. I can't wait until we are both living in LA. We will have so much fun!"

"We definitely will." I grabbed my two year olds hand. "Let's go."

We walked down and got into a taxi to our school. I told Spencer to meet me at the entrance of the graduation so he can take Brendan.

"Brendan you see daddy over there." I pointed over to him and he nodded. "Go run over to him. Dessie and I need to go get ready with the others."

"Kay mommy." He ran over and Des and I left.

"Tiddy, we did it!"

"Oh My God, stop calling me that!"

She laughed. "Not after that party, Tiddy Duncan."

"Fine Dessie Dicks." I said smirking.

She glared at me. "Fine I won't call you that anymore as long as you don't even mention that again."

"Graduates, please get into position. We will be heading out shortly."

"I'll see you after graduation." Des said.

"Good luck, don't fall with those big ass heels."

She smiled and walked away. "They make my legs look sexy."

Ten minutes later the graduation song started to play and we all headed out. I didn't graduate with honors this time but I'm okay with that because I knew I could have if I didn't have Brendan.

I was reflecting the past four years as I was listening to the speeches.

4 Years Ago…

"Now Teddy, I have a full stock of condoms in this night stand. Just don't do anything in my bed and we should be good.

"Des! We are not having sex."

1 ½ Months Later…

"Des I think... I think I might be pregnant."

"Teddy, I showed you where the condoms were and you didn't use them, shame!"

1 Month Later…

"I was thinking that we should get married, get eloped."

"Spencer, we're too young to get married."

Next Day…

"You're what?! You're getting eloped today?!"

"Yes, please, I need you to come because we need two people to be witnesses."

It definitely has been a crazy four years. I thought college was supposed to be the best years of my life, the parties, being independent, being an adult. College was most certainly not fun but stressful from caring for a child to studying, I still don't know how I'm graduating.

It was time for the Dean to call up our names. My row stood up and we lined up. As soon as I knew it, it was my turn to walk up onto stage I took a deep breath before they called my name.

"Theodora Rebecca Duncan."

I smiled and walked up stage. I shook everyone's hand and I was given my diploma. I took a quick photo with the dean and walked down the stairs back to my seat. You did it Teddy; you are now officially an adult.

After graduation I found all of my college friends and hugged them goodbye since this will probably be the last time I see them besides Des.

"I'm going to miss all you guys so much."

"We're going to miss you too and little Brendan. Hey where is he anyways?"

"With Spencer who is probably with my family maybe…"

"Are you guys going to get married?"

"I don't know but if I do, you guys will totally be invited!"

"Bridesmaids?"

"Of course!" I said.

"I call maid of honor!"

"Why talk about this now when she isn't even thinking about marriage or even getting engaged?" Des said. "Besides, I'll be maid of honor."

I rolled my eyes.

My phone started to vibrate showing I got a text from Spencer.

S: Where are you?

T: Just meet me over by entrance. I'll be over there in a few.

"Okay, I need to go find my family but let's take one last photo of us all together like this." I said. I turned my phone's camera on and held it in front of us taking a couple of photos.

"You need to send me that." Bailey said.

"Yeah, me too." Ashlyn said.

"I will later. Bye." I hugged everyone once more. "And I'll see you at the apartment later, right Des?"

"Yeah, yeah."

It took me ten minutes, but I eventually found my family and Spencer and Brendan.

"Mommy!" My two-year old son yelled running over to me.

I placed my heels I wear carrying on the grass and picked up my son. "Hey Beanie."

"Congratulations Teddy, we are so proud of you." Both my parent's said. They both gave me a hug.

I was full of smiles. "Thanks. It was definitely challenging but I finally made it."

I placed Brendan back on the ground and Spencer walked over to me and gave me a hug. I wrapped my arms around his neck and gave him a kiss.

Spencer picked me up and spun me around. "Congrats baby."

"Thanks."

We took some photos together and then I headed back over to my apartment since my parents have a plane to catch. They left Charlie and Toby with Gabe, PJ, and Skylar which means nothing good could come out of that. Hopefully they will find two kids safe and sound when they get back.

"When are you guys going to move to LA?" Spencer asked.

I shrugged. "When do you want us to?"

"ASAP."

"Brendan, do you want to live with daddy?" I asked.

"I wanna live with mommy."

"But we're going to live all together as one nice happy family." Spencer said. "Won't that be fun?"

Brendan nodded.

"How's your music going?" I asked.

"It's going great and I'm currently recording music."

"What are the songs?"

"It's going to be a surprise."

I rolled my eyes and grabbed my phone.

D: Can you get some more boxes before you came back. I'll pay you back.

T: Yeah, how many?

D: I don't know, just buy some.

"Are you going to be a nice boyfriend and help me pack?"

"If it means you will be living with me sooner. Let's get packing."
