The wind is rushing after us, the clouds are flying after us, and the moon is plunging after us, and the whole wild night is in pursuit of us; but, so far we are pursued by nothing else – Charles Dickens

"The wind is rushing after us... the clouds are plunging after us. The moon is... No. Wait." Wendy stopped pacing around her room and walked over to her desk picking up her note cards for her Valedictorian speech. It hadn't been long since she found out that it was her that got the honor, there was a little problem between her and the other top student and they had to count up the grades again, and just like she guessed she had gotten it. She had been preparing for it since before she could remember. As much as she had been mentally thinking about it she seemed to be having a hard time actually coming up with a speech. Over the past year she had been jotting things down, but now that she read them over they all seemed stupid. "The clouds are flying after us, and the moon is plunging after us, and the whole wild night is in pursuit of us; but, so far we are pursued by nothing else." She put down the card and turned away from it closing her eyes. "Pursued by nothing else..."

Wendy looked around as her door opened and her best friend Bebe entered her room looking annoying and carrying two packages. One she tossed down onto Wendy's bed and the next she set in her lap after sitting down and opened it. "We got our caps and gowns." The blonde girl explained pulling out the green gown and examining it. "I got yours since you seem to busy. And what the hell? Why didn't anyone answer the door? I was down there for like... ever."

"You rang the doorbell once." Wendy said and rolled her eyes going back to her note cards and murmuring things to herself as she began pacing around her room again. "In A Tale of Two Cities Charles Dickens wrote... Charles Dickens wrote..." She trailed off looked over at her best friend who was now standing in front of her mirror with her gown on flapping her arms around. "What are you doing?"

Bebe stopped and smiled. "These are so baggy." She said and laughed to herself apparently thinking of something funny that Wendy wasn't sure she wanted to know. "Are you still working on your speech? Really? That's nuts." She shook her head and looked back in the mirror as Wendy glared. "Why are you quoting Charles Dickens anyway? The only good thing he ever wrote was that Christmas movie. You know, with the little kid that had a crutch. What was his name again?"

Letting out a sigh Wendy sat down at her desk looking at her note cards mouthing her speech to herself. It didn't shock Wendy about her friends stupidity about things like classic literature but it really did make her think. How many of her classmates would even know what she was talking about? None of them she was sure. Maybe she should quote something they actually understood. Maybe a quote from something they actually read in class, that way she was sure they at least would have heard of the book before. "Bebe what is your favorite book?" Wendy asked looking at her friend who was flapping her arms around again though this time she had put her cap on.

After she stopped her movements Bebe tilted her head to the side and thought for a few moments. "Little Women." She said and nodded her head. She watched as Wendy turned away again and laughed once more. "Oh my god! Wendy look!" She started flapping her arms again. "I can fly." Bebe shook her head laughing before she sat back down on Wendy's bed.

"You're nuts." Wendy said flatly and turned away from her letting out a sigh. She needed to come up with something. The speaker had to think of something profound to say. That made everyone there agree and listen and remember what there graduation was like. Remember what their school life was like. What would sum her school life up? Crazy probably. But she couldn't say something about that. That would be inappropriate. She leaned back in her chair and turned to look at Bebe who was putting her cap and gown away and looking a little perturbed. Oh come on, what did she do now? Wendy wasn't in the mood to laugh at Bebe's stupid joke. That didn't even make since! She watched as Bebe stood up and looked at Wendy with her eyebrows raised.

"You need to think about something else other then that stupid speech." She said and held her cap and gown to her chest frowning slightly. Though not in an angry or upset way. In a more worried way, worried for her friends sanity kind of way. "Most of our classmates aren't going to graduation to hear you speak. Actually you know what I heard?" She said in a quieter voice as she leaned forward slightly as if there was someone around that could hear. "When I was picking up our caps and gowns. I heard that a few people were saying they were angry you got the spot of Valedictorian. They said they thought Kyle should have got it." Bebe straightened up and smiled faintly in a kind of way that was supposed to be comforting. "I told them that they were idiots and that you were way more awesome then Kyle. But they didn't shut up about it."

Wendy frowned up at Bebe and leaned back against her desk shaking her head. Why would people be so stupid? She was the one who was class president. She was the one who got the best grades, sure Kyle came in second, but still. She won, not him. Letting out a sigh Wendy shook her head slightly and looked at Bebe who shrugged her shoulders.

Bebe sat down on the edge of Wendy's bed probably because she wasn't going to be sitting for long. "By the way," She added and smiled. "Ok, so apparently I heard that after Graduation Cartman was going to be throwing a party at like... Butters' house I think. And I know ew Cartman, right? But we so have to go. It will be the last party ever with all of us. And like everyone is going. So I said we are too." Bebe stood up again and patted Wendy on the head smiling at her. "Don't think to hard sweety. I'm off; I'm supposed to meet Anne so we can guy new outfits for Graduation. Because apparently you're supposed to wear something underneath your robes..."

Smiling at Bebe as she turned and left her room Wendy looked over at the package that Bebe had thrown onto her bed that contained her cap and gown. It was kind of really strange. Graduation was a week away. After that everyone was going to move on with their lives. She was moving away to attend Stanford, Bebe was going to a school in Florida, those were across the country from her. She wasn't even sure where everyone else was going and suddenly that seemed really stupid. Shouldn't she know where all her friends were going off to college? That seemed like a huge flaw to her. Didn't they print those things in the School paper? Where was that?

Wendy pulled her trashcan towards her and shifted through hit carefully pulling out the school paper she had apparently just taken to read during school when she had nothing to do, and then never look at again. Flipping it open she looked down the column is seemed like the people who were able to go to college were going to be very spread out. She could possibly not see all her friends/ people she had known since she was a little child until maybe... some class reunion. Wendy wasn't sure why it had taken her so long to realize that, but now that it hit her, she was kind of worried about it.
