"Alice why do you insist on torturing me?"

"It's your graduation day. Be happy."

"I can't walk in heels and your making me wear a white dress. It's a disaster waiting to happen."

"Now come on you've been living under the radar since September only us, your dad, Jacob, Billy, and the Webber family know you're alive."

"So it's better that way."

"No its not. Alright now listen if you make a break for it the second we walk out of this house I will catch you and I will carry you to graduation. Got it."

"Yes Alice. "

"It's ok you look stunning."

We walked silently out to the garage where Edward was waiting.

"The family already left. We're taking Rosalie's car."

Before I got in the car I asked "Now why are they going to think that you, Charlie, and Jacob are going to be there?"

"Well every year since you disappeared since graduation Charlie has gone. We are guests of honor and Jacob is on the decorating committee."Alice replied.

"You know I'm going to trip and fall. I can barely walk and Alice put me in heels."

"Come on Bella were going to be late. Alice get in the back."

I got in the car and we drove in silence. When we arrived we parked in the back.

"Alright Bella Alice and I are going to be sitting on stage. The rest of our family and your family will be in the front row. I will introduce you after the diplomas are handed out you will come out from behind the screen and retrieve your diploma. You will then come sit with me. Ok."

"Alright Edward."

"Aright just sit in this chair till you called be ready to come out when I get called up."

"Aright."I kissed Edward on the cheek and he left.

Five minutes later I heard the music start. I heard Edward and Alice walk on stage. Then the principal introduced himself and the diplomas were handed out. Edward was then called up and I stood up ready to walk out when I got called. I then realized in horror that he was making a speech.

"Let me tell you a story."He began, "There once was a girl. She had a great life. She was smart funny and had a great family. Then she was gone. This relates a lot to life everything is great and funny till you graduate. Then your innocence is gone. Then out of nowhere this girl comes back. This also relates to life. Once you learn balance life becomes great again. Now this story is true in another way. Let me introduce you to the girl. Everybody please welcome back Miss Bella Swan."

The crowd was silenced not even bothering to breath but as soon as walked into view they erupted in applause. Edward handed me my diploma and wrapped his arm around my waist. He then leaned towards the mike once more.

"I would also like to say one more thing. Bella and I are engaged."

The crowd erupted in applause again as we walked back to our seats. It took the principal quite a few tries to get them to settle down. There were some very boring graduation speeches then the closing words. The graduates then threw up their hats. I did too only Edward caught mine. We walked off the stage into the sea of families. I was immediately swarmed by my family, teachers, and other graduates. After an hour of hugs and kisses we finally made it to the car. When I got in Edward handed me a small silver box. Inside was a silver bracelet. Just then Alice bounced up beside me. She handed me another silver box. That's from me and Jasper. Inside it was a small graduation hat charm. Edward fastened that on the bracelet and then put the bracelet on me. Emmet walked up then and handed me another silver box. That's from me and Rosalie. Inside was a key.

"What's this?"I questioned.

"Your brand new 2009 Lotus Elise Convertible."

"You bought me a car."

"Yep."

"I tell you guys to get me nothing and I get a car. A charm bracelet I can deal with but a car no way. Yo-" Just then Carslie walked up with Esme which ended my threats.

Esme handed me another silver box. Inside was another key.

"What's this?"

"Your new house."Esme replied.
