Planning and Graduation

Mitchie's Point of View

Planning a wedding was hell, pure, torturous hell. I had to book a minister, find a dress, find bridesmaids dresses, send out invitations, do table arrangements, and pick a maid of honor, the hardest part of all. I didn't have to worry about finding a caterer because of my mom and Shane, Nate, and Jason were going to record some songs before hand just for the wedding. If it weren't for the fact that it would mean spending my life with Shane, I wouldn't continue with this torture.

"Whoever invented weddings needs to try and plan one. I still have to find bridesmaids dresses, pick a made of honor, and do the table arrangements" I groaned. Shane laughed and hugged me closer. We were sitting on his bed in the apartment, trying to figure out the wedding plans. Shane had found this cozy little house a few days ago that we were going to live in.

"Just wait a few weeks and all of this will be worth the planning," he said, rubbing my back. I groaned and buried my head into his chest. "At least in a few weeks we'll be happily married," he said.

"And if that weren't true, I would have stopped all of this planning a long time ago," I said. He laughed and kissed my hair. "I love you too," I said and kissed him on lips. Without thinking, my legs wrapped around his waist and he groaned happily but pulled away.

"I wish we didn't have to stop," he said and laid my head back on his chest. I nodded in agreement and stroked his hair gently. Shane buried his face in my hair.

"I have to go," I said, suddenly realizing what time it was. Shane pouted but let me go. "I have another fitting for my dress," I said and kissed him quickly. I grabbed my coat and hurried out the door. The limo was outside, waiting to take me to the fitting. Sierra, Kandi, and Meghan were already arguing at the dress shop about what kind of dress they should wear.

"Mitchie, should we wear pink, blue, or yellow?" Sierra said upon seeing us.

"I don't know," I sighed, "I have been trying to plan the perfect wedding while trying to finish school. Just each of you picks out a dress you like and we'll call it good." They nodded content with my decision. Graduation was only a few days away but I still had 2 more days of finals to study for. Luckily, Sierra was helping me with math and science, my worst subjects.

"Come on, Miss Torres. It's time to try on the dress," someone called. My dress was a simple white, sleeveless dress. I had seen it a week ago and fell in love with it. The best thing was that there was only one left but it was in my size. As the seamstress started pinning, the four of us kept talking.

"So are you taking his name or are you keeping yours?" Sierra asked. I blushed a little. I hadn't given that until right now. It just seemed like a small detail compared to everything else.

"I never thought about it that much," I admitted, "I'm going to take his name, I guess." Mitchie Gray actually sounded pretty good. I felt kind of sorry for my parents because they didn't have anyone to carry on the Torres name.

Graduation came fast. Finals seemed to rush by. The girls in my school stared at me all the time and there were rumors going around about me being pregnant. Those rumors were probably started by Jessica. Before I knew it, I was waiting in science, my last period, counting down the seconds until the final bell. The graduation ceremony takes place at 6:30 tonight. Shane, Nate, Jason, and Kandi were all coming to watch Meghan and I graduate. I dressed in an aqua dress underneath the green graduation gown. Shane was originally going to ride with Mom, Dad, and I but he changed the plans a few days ago. When I asked why he just said that something changed.

"You excited, honey?" Mom asked for the billionth time. "I just can't believe you're graduating and then getting married in just a few days," she said tearfully.

"You're growing up so fast," Dad said.

"Don't worry, I'll come and visit all the time," I promised. Just then we pulled up to the school. I got out and walked towards where Meghan, Sierra, Jason, and Nate were talking.

"Hey, Mitchie," Meghan said.

"Hey, where's Shane?" I asked.

"Oh, he just had a few last minute things to do," Nate said. Before I could press the matter further, the principal called for us to get to our seats.

Meghan, Sierra, and I had to go in different places because the seats were organized by last name. After a quick speech from Sierra, the valedictorian, we were called to the stage one by one to get our diplomas. When it was my turn, I looked into the stands and saw Shane clapping. Of course, all of the girls were drooling over him but he only had eyes for me. Finally, graduation was over and I felt Shane's warm arms wrap around me.

"Congratulations," he said and kissed me lightly. I smiled and kissed him again, deeper and more passionate this time. "Come on, I want to give you your graduation gift," he laughed, pulling me towards the parking lot.

"You didn't have to get me anything," I said.

"I know," he laughed and finally stopped, right in front of a light blue corvette convertible with a red bow hanging from the rearview mirror.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you," I said and kissed him again, tangling my hands in his hair. I felt him smile and he pulled back.

"The keys are in the ignition," he said and opened the drivers door for me. I smiled and hugged him before getting in.

"This is too good to be true," I said.

"What, the car?" Shane asked, confused. I shook my head.

"No everything. Graduation, the car, getting married, everything," I said. He leaned over from the passenger seat.

"Well believe it," he whispered and kissed me gently. I melted into the kiss until we pulled away, gasping.

I personally like the wedding planning part the best. WEDDING NEXT CHAPTER!!!!!!!!!!! i was about halfway done with this chapter when i remembered, I FORGOT ABOUT GRADUATION! I am trying to work on 8 stories so updating this may take awhile.
