"It takes both rain and sunshine to make a rainbow..."

Four years later...

Beck was graduating one year early from culinary school and our friends, myself, and Persephone Brynn, were cheering as he got his diploma. Yup, you guessed it Beck and I were blessed with a baby girl, and even better news we have another one on the way. Yea, I know two kids and we're only twenty, but I wouldn't change it for the world.

I walk up the stage and I see the two people who matter the most to me, cheering me on. My soon to be two year old Persephone Brynn and Jade. She is five months pregnant and looks absolutely gorgeous. I'm so happy that after all we've been through, there is finally some happiness in our lives.

After what happened in high school our relationship got stronger and better. Yea it took us awhile to accept it, but after we did high school seemed to fly by, and pretty soon we were graduating. After graduating Jade and I took the next step in our relationship, and we moved in together. Yea our parents didn't approve, but we didn't care and we did it. And a couple of months later we found out Jade was pregnant. We were both excited, but we also realized that we would have to work hard to afford a new place and a baby. So I took double shifts at my uncle's restaurant as a bus boy and Jade got a job as a pre-k teacher's assistant. I know, right! I myself, couldn't believe Jade would end up working with kids, but she did and she liked it.

Working sucked to say the least because we hardly saw each other and Jade was always sick. The pregnancy made her miserable. Persephone put Jade on bed rest for nine and a half weeks. She had to stay in bed because she started to leak amniotic fluid and her placenta had a ninety- nine percent chance of detaching itself from the uteran wall, which wasn't good for the baby or for Jade.

So I took time off from work to stay and care for Jade, and as much as I enjoyed it financially it was not good at all. We started to fall behind on our bills, so as much as we didn't want to ask our parents for money, we had to. First we went to my parents, who only agreed to help us with the baby things. They bought everything for the baby, but our bills still needed to be paid. So we went to Jade's parents for help. Surprisingly enough, they lent us a good amount and it helped us get back on our feet. So financially we were good, but Jade was still miserable and it only got worse.

Jade went into labor early and baby Persephone was born at seven and a half months. She had to stay in the NICU for a little over a month. It was the longest month for both of us. Baby Persephone was born on a beautiful spring day, April 15 to be exact. She weighed four pounds exactly and was eighteen inches long. She was so tiny and immidiateley after she was born she had trouble breathing. Followed by low body temperature and she couldn't feed on her own. Jade was a total mess and so was I, I kept thinking that this just couldn't be happening to us. Then a week after her birth and of being in the NICU, we found out she had a small hole in her heart. Jade and I were beyond worried for our baby, we did not know what was going to happen. The doctor said it might close in a week and we would just have to wait, and if it didn't then she would have to have surgery. Three days past and unfortunatley it did not close. So Persephone had to have surgery lasted about four hours, but thankfully everything went well. Then after about a month of recovery, medication, and tests, baby Persephone was finally well enough to come home.

Jade's parents and mine, got everything ready in the nursery and they worked really hard making sure it was just perfect for when Persephone came home. By the time Persephone got home she weighed six and a half pounds and was doing wonderfully. She only has a small scar on her chest from the surgery, when she asks us what that is we simply tell her that her angel kissed her there and left her a special mark. Persephone's birth was the best thing ever, we both love her dearly and are so happy for baby number two.

Jade is still in school and in about three years she should have her BA and credentials to become a teacher. But for now she is a stay at home mom and she loves it. She takes Persephone out everywhere and she loves spending time with her. All our friends also love her to death, so much that Cat and Tori fought over who would be her godmother. Suprisingly Tori won, so Andre and Tori are her godparents and for the next baby it will be Robbie and Cat. Everyone is excited for the next baby even our parents.

Jade is more than happy with our growing family and more so witht he fact that this pregnancy has gone really well. The baby is growing and is due October thirty first. We decided not to find out the sex of the baby because we want to be surprised. Financially we are doing better. Thanks to my Uncle I have a spot at his restaurant as head chef and it pays well. And now as I stand here with my diploma in hand I feel complete, I couldn't ask for anything more in life. I have my family, friends, and career.

Tori, Cat, Andre, Robbie, Persephone, and myself are all cheering for Beck as he graduated. I am so proud of him. With out him my life wouldn't be as perfect as it is, I love him to death. He's a good boyfriend, dad, and not to mention chef. Our past pnly lives in our memories and we are more than happy to not only meet our new baby, but to see what the future holds for our family. After all we've been through I am so happy and blessed to have my friends, kids, and Beck in my life. I feel like I'm oozing happiness and I wouldn't change any of it.

"Daddy, daddy!" Persephone clapped and gurgled.

"Yea, baby that's your daddy," I answered her as I pointed to Beck out on the stage. I hugged her tight and kissed her, she just smiled.

"Yup life gives you obstacles, but at the end of the tunnel there is always a light," I thought to myself, "and my light is my two kids and Beck."
