I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT! BELONGS TO S.M!

Graduation

(Bella's POV AGE 17)

"Can you believe it! It's finally here! We're finally graduating!" Alice exclaimed with a big grin. I nodded at my best friend as she twirled around in her yellow graduation grown. Finally, after all theses years, I would be leaving Forks High and heading off to college with Edward in the fall.

"I know, oh I'm going to miss you guys," Rosalie said tearfully. I chuckle as I wrap my arms around her and Alice.

"Girls, we are't saying goodbye yet! We have the summer still and it's not for forever!" I remind them, and they both nod smiling. This summer we would all be heading on a road trip, and it's going to be our last hooray before college. We would also be bringing Ness, Jake, and Seth along too.

"Come on, we have to go line up," I tell them pointing to the teacher motioning for us to go.

"Kay! Good luck!" they call back to me as they head up to the front of the line while I head down to my spot at the end portion of the line.

"You too!" I yell to them. I head to my spot when I feel a pair of warm familiar arms wrap around me. I smile as I lean into them.

"I wonder who this might be," I joke as I heard a familiar chuckle.

"Someone who loves you very much," Edward whispered into my ear, making me grin. I giggle as I go to turn around so I could go to kiss his lips.

"Can you believe it? Graduation," I whisper to him. He grins as he goes to cup my face in his hands.

"I know, just seems like yesterday I met you." he chuckled, kissing my forehead.

"And seems like yesterday you had just shown me the meadow." I grin. He smiles and goes to kiss my lips again. I grip onto him as our kiss became a bit more passionate.

"Mr. Cullen! Get back in your spot!" Mr. Banner yelled at him. We both pull away, breathless. I felt the blush rise in my cheeks as Mr. Banner scowled at us and motioned for Edward to go.

"That's my cue, see you right after my love," he said.

"I love you," I remind him as I give him one last kiss on the cheek.

"I love you too." he then dashed back to his spot up in the front.

Soon the graduation music plays and we all line up and head to our seats on the auditorium stage.

The valedictorian would be Angela. She just beat Ben by only a little bit. The teachers couldn't decide which one to choose, Angela just happened to be the lucky one.

"After today all of us will be entering the real world. We won't be kids anymore, but young adults. We won't be living under our parents roof, but our own. Everything is changing for us and all of us have spent the last year going through changes. I think after this year we all learned something about life. It's crazy and a big journey, we don't know what's going to hit us. Whether its falling in love, making new friends, losing a friend, or making mistakes, they're all unexpected. Now today we are graduating Forks High School with our heads held high and ready to face the world. I congratulate you my fellow students and good luck."

After Angela's speech we all went to grab our diploma's. I watch as Alice first gets her diploma, then Edward, Rosalie, and finally Jasper. I waited only a little bit more until it was finally time for my row to go.

"Isabella Marie Swan." I hear my name and go to walk across the stage to receive my diploma. When I went to grab mine from my principle I saw my dad standing up in the audience with my brother cheering and hooting like the goofball he is. I laugh as I go to return to my seat. I couldn't believe what just happened as I sat down in my seat. I was finally a graduate. Alice looked back at me and grinned, waving her diploma. I couldn't help but chuckle at her.

"Well Class of 2005. Congratulations! You're graduates!" Principle Meyer exclaimed.

We all go to throw our graduation caps into the air and let out a loud cheer. I grab mine as it comes down and then when I spotted Edward I ran to him, making sure not to trip. When I reached his arms he captured me in a kiss. I felt him swirl me in his arms as everyone ran around us; celebrating and going to their loved ones. It felt like one of those moments you'd wish would never end.

We all then went to the Cullen home after for the party Alice was throwing. I think she did a really good job on the decorations and everything. It was one of her best parties yet. She had a dance floor set up with a bunch of lights all over the house.

I watch as Emmett and Rose are swaying back and forth to the music on the dance floor with all the other couples. I notice Alice and Jasper are doing the same. I turn my head to see Nessie and Jacob watching from the top of the stairs holding one another's hand while Seth is just being..Seth. I smile, I was going to miss my friends when we go to college.

I was going to Dartmouth with Edward. I was going to become a teacher and him a doctor. Rose would be joining Emmett up in Washington University to get her degree in early childhood development. Alice was heading to New York for the fashion school of FIT while Jasper would be heading off to go to New York as well, but he would be going to West Point for Military school. After that he would be joining Alice wherever she is and plan to become a history teacher.

"Hey love." I look to see Edward snake his arms around me. I was in a green emerald party dress to match Edward's green eyes. He was in a blue button up dress shirt and black dress pants.

"Hello my love." I grin at him as I turn around so his arms wrap around my torso, pulling me closer to him.

"Will you dance with me Miss Swan?" he asked me.

"I don't know," I sigh.

"Come on," he pleaded me with his emerald-green eyes starring into my eyes.

"Fine." I give in as he pulls me close to him and we sway back and forth to the music.

"I still cannot believe this, we are graduates!" I whisper. "Where did the time go?"

"I don't know." he laughed as he went to go kiss me gently.

"You know one thing that will never change though," Edward whispered.

"What?" I ask.

"I'll never stop loving you Isabella Swan." He says, cupping my cheek gently. I grin.

"And I'll never stop loving you Edward Cullen," I whisper as I kiss his lips once more. He then pulls me into an embrace as I lay my head against his chest and we dance for the rest of the night.
