Timmy's POV

I couldn't believe it and neither could anyone else. A.J., Chester, Remy, Phillip, Trixie, Alicia, Tootie, Veronica, Rachel, Henry, Nacey, Wanda, Cosmo, Poof, Juandissimo, Binky, Jorgen, the Tooth Fairy, Faith, and Lucas all protected me. Even Chester's dad, A.J. parents, Trixie's parents and grandfather, Alicia's parents, Tootie's parents and Vicky protected me as well.

I spoke up and asked, "Mom, dad. What are you doing here?"

My mom smiled as did my dad.

Dad answered, "Well, we weren't going to miss your graduation, Timmy." I froze.

Dad actually called me Timmy.

My mom nodded and said, "Even though you are no longer our responsibility, we still would like to be there for you. To make up for what we did to you."

My mom had tears rolling down her face and my dad looked rather upset. I stepped out and I hugged them with tears in my eyes.

I whispered as I was letting go of them, "I wish I knew that you meant that."

With a wave of their wands; Wanda, Cosmo, and Poof granted my wish - but it didn't work. I wanted to ask them why their wands didn't work but my dad brought me back to reality.

He stated, "Of course we mean that Timmy."

My mom nodded and replied, "After all, we are your parents and we love you."

A.J. spoke up with anger in his voice, "Well, you had a lousy way of showing it."

Chester nodded and responded, "I agree."

Phillip added, "You have no idea what Timmy has been through and no matter how many events you go to, you're mistreatment of him will never go away."

Remy nodded and added, "Timmy deserves better. He always deserved a better home...like me. That's why I'm thankful for him as a friend."

I smiled. I hugged Remy and we broke out of it.

Nacey spoke up and said, "Mr. and Mrs. Turner, these boys are right and I know the girls are thinking the same things. I know Timmy is grateful that you did show but he probably wishes that things were different."

I shook my head and said, "No, Mrs. O'Connell. I don't." Everyone who knew my secret was a bit shocked but those who didn't were smiling. I explained, "That wish would ruin everything. Maybe that one wish is better off not being granted."

The ones who knew my secret changed their expressions to happier ones. My dad and mom exchanged confused looks.

My dad said, "Well we are sorry Timmy."

My mom nodded and said, "We shall get going so that you may celebrate."

I smiled but before they left I gave them one final hug. They hugged me back and then let go of me. With that, they left.

I heard Henry whispered, "Did not see that coming at all, Nance."

My friends came over and Trixie asked, "You okay, Timmy?"

I shrugged and answered, "No, I'm not." I smiled and added, "But, I will be."
