Hi guys! I desperately need your input. Should I continue this story or should this be the second last chapter? I don't have many other plot lines for this story but I do for the other fanfic I have started – 'Better with You'. Please let me know in the reviews. Thanks!
2 Months Later
Kurt's P.O.V
Kurt and Rachel were finally graduating. After four years of constantly working, the day had finally come when they would get their degree. Both of them had already gotten roles on separate Broadway shows and were absolutely thrilled. Kurt was sitting oh his dressing table and thinking about the past four years of his life. The ups and downs were insane. He had lost two incredibly important people in those four years and his friends had helped each other through it.
"Come on Kurt, get ready! You need to leave in 45 mins.", said Blaine as he came into the room, smiling,
"Just 45 minutes? Oh shit! Blaine please iron my outfit now; I need to start styling my hair."
Blaine chuckled and said, "Calm down, 45 mins is a lot….. Ok Ok, I am ironing …don't look at me like that."
Kurt hurriedly picked up his best comb and started styling his hair and 44 minutes later he was finally ready.
Kurt and Blaine headed over to Rachel and Brittany's apartment. Tina and Quinn had arrived there that day as well since both of them had already graduated and wanted to be there for Kurt and Rachel.
As soon as he entered the apartment with Blaine, both of them were tackled into hugs by Quinn and Tina.
"I missed you guys so much.", said Tina. She had graduated in 3 years instead of four because she had been able to fit in the required units in 3 years.
"We missed you too."
"KURT! I need help.", Rachel yelled
Kurt entered Rachel's room and saw that she still wasn't ready. Her bed and the floor were covered with clothes.
"Was there a storm in your room, Rach?"
"I don't know what to wear"
"Wait, you didn't pick an outfit? I told you to do that yesterday! You are the valedictorian for god's sake."
"I was about too but then Britt and I started watching a movie and fell asleep on the couch."
"Give me five minutes and I will tell you what to wear, till then, just fix your hair."
Kurt fully went into his zone and finally found an outfit for Rachel while Tina and Brittany worked on Rachel's hair. Quinn and Blaine were busy taking pictures of every minute thing that was happening. Just as they were about to leave, Blaine asked Kurt if he could talk to him privately.
"Kurt, I just want to say that I am so incredibly proud of you. You suffered a lot these past few years, we all did, but you have been so freaking strong and made me feel me much better about everything. Thank you for everything…Thank you for just being you and please remember that I will always love you."
"Thank you, Blaine, you have been a rock for me through everything. I love you too…so much." Kurt hugged Blaine tightly with tears in his eyes.

Brittany's P.O.V
Brittany was sitting in the auditorium with Tina, Quinn, Blaine, Burt, Carole and Rachel's dads as they were waiting for Kurt and Rachel to come up on the stage and receive their degree. The past 2 months had been good for Brittany and had helped her become stronger, she still had a few breakdowns sometimes, but she was coping well.
Brittany and the group cheered loudly as Rachel went up to the podium to giver her speech as valedictorian. Brittany had become really close to Rachel (even though she was still annoying at times) and was very grateful for it, both of them had many long talks late at night in their apartment. Rachel took a deep breath and started speaking.
"My fellow graduates. Over the last four years here at NYADA , we all have learnt many things about singing, dancing , acting and you know some other stuff.. I mean at least I hope that we have learnt this stuff, honestly I still don't know." Everyone in the audience chuckled at this.
"But NYADA has taught me so much more than that. The first thing is probably how to handle pressure thanks to the millions of exams and shows we had to do and how to handle my emotions. These 4 years have been hell for me at times. I lost two people who were very special to me and I want to tell you what I learnt from that awful experience; no matter what happens, don't ever push your friends away and life is going to suck at times, it just is. Maybe the magnitude of disaster is different for everyone but you just have to deal with it and be kind to yourself. I would like to thank some people for helping me throughout, Ms Carmen Tibedaux for giving me such amazing opportunities, my dads for supporting me and most of all my friends; Brittany, Kurt, Blaine, Tina and Quinn. I would also like to thank two people who are not a part of this world anymore: Finn and Santana, I know that you guys are looking out for me."
Brittany realized that she had tears in her eyes at that point. She really wished that Santana had been there with her that day . Brittany then clapped loudly as her friends came up on the stage and got their diploma. After that the group went out for some drinks and had fun. Brittany missed Santana, but her pain had mellowed down a lot and she now had a positive outlook of life.
