How to Fix the Broken

Chapter 2: Graduation Day
The rest of senior year I avoided Nicholas, and he avoided me. I believe I have Emmett to thank for that. Nicholas avoided all the Cullens as if his life were at stake. But he mainly avoided Emmett. And Emmett couldn't be happier.
The last week of school Nicholas broke up with me. He said he wanted to be free in college. I told hm good luck and that I'd miss him. But I knew it was because I wasn't giving him what he wanted.
My virginity. No way. I was keeping that til marriage.
And plus it would give him something to hold over my head to never leave him. Which is not good. But even in the middle of all the darkness, light shone through.
One, I was closer to Rosalie and Emmett. Without them I would have tried to do something really stupid. For example try to run over Emmett with the graduation gift they gave me. A 1970 El Camino SS*. Actually, I did try. Though unsuccessfully.
Second, my gymnastics improved drastically. I can now through a Double Arabian with minimal effort. My coach now says I stand a chance at the Olympics. That was if I wanted to go. I don't I'd rather be in a law firm. But gymnastics could give me an edge at somethings. But I had no clue what. I'd probably do gymnastics in college.
Third, I graduated at the top of my class. To avoid Nicholas I hid in the library. He hated it there. Said it would ruin his image. Yeah his future nobody image. Most of the kids knew of his abusive past. Apparently he was better, because he was dating Angela one of the populars. She'd break up with him in a month. And then he'd go to college and forget about everything. Become a drunk and way more abusive. Well that's just my thought. Not to mention half the town's too.
The Cullens finally let me in on their secret. Emmett just couldn't keep quiet anymore. He was definitely a blabbermouth. They all told me their stories. Only Alice didn't have a real exciting one. She couldn't remember how became this way, who changed her, or her human life. I told her I understood, but I really didn't. I wished I could.
Edward found his mate, my cousin Bella Swan. They seemed happy. If I had looked into Carlisle's eyes, I'd have seen how he felt. But I didn't. Or maybe I just didn't want to yet.
Graduation Day was here before I knew it. I was valedictorian. And as tradition shows I had to give I speech. I hate speeches, but there was no way for me to back out. Rosalie said she'd kill me if I ruined this day for her.
My speech went well, even with the dirty looks Nicholas was giving me. I had a feeling that it wasn't the end of us. He'd be back and all I could do was wait for the inevitable.
The looks I got from Carlisle were ones of love and affection. I finally saw how he felt. And suddenly I felt the same way. But all I could do was wonder who was the gorgeous red head sitting next to him. Esme. She looked like she was still in love with Carlisle. Boy did I have another thing coming.
My family and I went out to dinner. We invited the Cullens and surprisingly they accepted. We all went to the Germanic restaurant, The Bronzed Sauerkraut. My sister Julienne told me I was her four month old daughter, Zoe's, godmother. And with that the perfect day came to an almost perfect close.
