Disclaimers: Naruto don't belong to me.
This story is about Sakura, Ino, Hinata, Tenten, Temari, Matsuri, Karin as best friends doing the craziest of things that friends would do together. Couples are Sasuke and Sakura, Ino and Sai, Naruto and Hinata, Tenten and Neji, Shikamaru and Temari, Gaara and Matsuri, Karin and Suigetsu.
A/N: the reason for not using the surname listing in this was because of people like Tenten and Sai who got no surname. And finally I suggest you listen to the song(s) while reading it'll make things better. With that said please enjoy :)
Gosh I'm so so sorry for all the errors I've made in this entire story guys. I'm trying to make corrections, I hope I get all if you see any I've left out do tell I'd fix it asap.
(Some days after the party)
"Can you believe it, can you actually believe it today's our day, the day we thought would never come. It's actually here, like today, right now, I'm so nervous, but I'm so happy like OMG, I need to breath." Ino kept blabbering to her friends as they got ready together in the girls washroom.
It's their graduation day and the place was extra busy the teachers were doing extra preparation while the students took pictures and got ready.
"Say cheese!" Sakura jumped in next to Hinata and Tenten and pointed to her camera. She had set a timer so they could all be in the picture.
"Cheese!" They grin and made funny poses at the camera.
She then took a picture of Ino nibbling on her nails. Tenten was in the middle of fixing her blue cap on but she had put it on wrong side and Sakura took a picture.
"You guys ready to sing and dance?" Sakura asked while fixing Tenten's blue cap on her head. The girls wore blue caps and gowns while the guys wore black.
"Yea, you ready do give that valedictorian speech?" Karin asks as she leaned against the big full length mirror. They never had that mirror there before it was only there for today, so that they could get ready.
"I think I am, don't forget to laugh when I make a joke even if it doesn't sound funny or I'd die up there." Sakura warned, even though she didn't act like it, she was nervous. All of them were nervous.
Their farewell ceremony was finally here, the beginning of goodbye.
000
The auditorium was perfectly decorated and ready. The chairs for guess and graduates were decorated in white and blue coveralls. The chairs their parents and others were to sit on were decorated in a black coverall. All the lights were on and the fans spinning about while the plants equally spread out decorated its spot to the sides of the hall.
The stairs to go onto the stage had blue and white balloons on them and the stage floor covered with black carpets. There were a few chairs on stage for the principal, vice-principal and other teachers, decorated in blue. The podium was at the centred front stage dressed in white with plants at the sides.
While the curtains hanged gracefully to the grown in blue. At the top of the curtain, hanging on the wall had a banner saying. 'Konoha High School Graduating Class of 2013 -Congratulations.' At the back of the hall behind all the chairs near the entrance there was a room set up to take pictures. This room was for the graduates to take pictures of themselves with their certificate.
By both entrance doors there was a frame of balloons making a semi circle. There was also one at the back row of the chairs where the graduates would be walking in.
000
Sakura and the girls had taken lots of pictures around the hall already. They were equally excited as they were nervous. The day before was spent signing each other shirts, which they had all planned to wear that day and took pictures.
Recently all that mattered was capturing the moment of the day in a picture and spending their last moments as students of Konoha High School together.
Light violin songs played in the back ground as everyone tried to make everything perfect. The guys were setting up the slide show for their pictures to be on display for the ceremony to the side of the stage near the stairs. They were also helping set up the stereo set for the music and the snack bar.
This day had to be perfect; it was the last day all the seniors would be together in the same room until prom. Still this was there fare well ceremony and it had to be perfect.
The guys all sharp and slick while the girls were all dolled up they took their class pictures.
Kakashi_sensei stood in the middle while everyone surrounded him. Sakura pulled Sasuke, Naruto and Sai near her for the picture. The four stood in front of kakashi making funny faces. Sasuke popped a piece sign and dropped a hand on Sakura's shoulder. Naruto grin widely making a gangster pose while Sai and Sakura made bunny ears behind his head.
Ino had her hands draped on Choji's and Shikamaru's neck bringing them down to her level. Choji had a blush on as he and Shikamaru smiled and made piece signs.
Hinata had her hands linked with Shino and Kiba's. Kiba had his tongue sticking out while Shino placed his other hand under his chin in a bad boy gesture.
Tenten and RockLee made fighting stances while Neji made a boxer's pose.
Temari and Matsuri hugged Gaara in a sandwich squish and kissed his checks. Gaara on the other hand brought his hands over their heads to make bunny ears.
Karin held Suigetsu in a head lock while he held around her waist and Jugo stood behind them smiling evilly.
Before the camera could snap this pose Kurenai, Asuma and Guy jumped in behind some other students. That would be a picture to treasure for the rest of their lives.
But they also took a picture standing side by side with no funny poses, but they had smiles and wide gins plastered on their faces.
...
Everyone was seated and ready for the beginning of goodbye. All the parents sat with their camera's ready to capture every moment of their child's graduation ceremony. Even Hinata's dad came back along with Sakura's and Temari's parents. They all came back just for this special day.
Kankuro had made it in time to see his siblings graduate.
It felt like just yesterday they moved to Konoha as high school students. All three of them, him and his siblings would be collage students now. Pulse he'd get to see Matsuri graduate and he was happy about this.
All the graduates lined up in their lines awaiting the music, so they'd walk in like they had practise. Girls and boys separated in classes so when the girls walked in through the right the boys would walk in through the left.
In the centre of the hall at the back row of the chairs there was a semi circle frame of balloons where the boy and girl would meet up. Then they'd both walk down the centre row and separate at the beginning on their row of chairs up front and take a seat.
000
The tune for 'The Climb' by 'Miley Cyrus' began to play and the students got ready to walk in.
'I can almost see it that dream I am dreaming. But there's a voice inside my head saying. You'll never reach it.'
The parents turned their camera's filming everything. Smiles were placed upon everyone's faces in this room.
'Every step I'm taking every move I make feels lost with no direction. My faith is shaking.'
The first to walk out form their group of friends was Choji walking opposite him was Chinu. Choji didn't know it at the time but Chinu had a great big crush on him.
'But I gotta keep trying. Gotta keep my head held high. There's always gona be another mountain. I'm always gonna want to make it move. Always gonna be an uphill battle. Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose.'
Next were Gaara and Hianta walking in together. They would have rather walk in with their girlfriend and boyfriend but they were separated by names. Right after came Ino and Jugo as partners. But they were all still happy to be with a friend.
' Ain't about how fast I get there. Ain't about what's waiting on the other side. It's the climb.'
Karin partner opposite her was Kiba and the two smiled at each other as they walked up to meet. When they reached each other Karin whispered a little 'Amy would be jealous' to the guy. This made him smile even wider; recently he and Amy started dating. A girl from their class.
' The struggles I'm facing. The chances I'm taking sometimes might knock me down. But no, I'm not breaking.'
Matsuri was happy to get Naruto as her partner. He had some way in making things light and easy and keeps her nerves under control. He was a laid back person with little worries in the world.
' I may not know it. But these are the moments that I'm gonna remember most, yeah just gotta keep going.'
Neji walked in with a girl called Nally. Tenten didn't mind though, Nally was a cool person. Pulse the girl liked some other guy in their class so she had no worries.
' And I, I got to be strong. Just keep pushing on. Cause there's always gonna be another mountain I'm always gonna wanna make it move.'
RockLee walked in all energetic and all with a girl he liked call Penly. Guy_sensei got up from where he sat and snapped a few shots giving Lee thumbs up. Lee grin and his teeth gave a sparkle.
' Always gonna be a uphill battle. Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose. Ain't about how fast I get there.'
Sakura fought the tears back as she walked in. Her partner Sasuke, their eyes were locked as they walked in. Chieri was crying on Itachi while his three friends easily cheered on for the two. Even Mikoto was crying now. This was a moment the two would treasure the most along with others to come.
' Ain't about what's waiting on the other side. It's the climb, yeah!'
Sai and Tenten walked in next and Tenten couldn't help but wink at the guy. Sai gave a small chuckle and shook his head at her.
' There's always gonna be another mountain. I'm always gonna wanna make it move.'
Shikamaru and Temari walked in and for them it was as if time had slow down just for them. They and Sasuke and Sakura were the most envied by everyone else. Everyone wanted to walk in with their boyfriends or girlfriend. Except for Shiho, she just wanted Shikamaru for herself.
Though she was trying to be friends with Temari now, she still liked him.
' Always gonna be an uphill battle. Somebody's gonna have to lose.'
Shino walked in with Shiho, but he still managed to smile at the cameras and his friends as they looked on. He still didn't trust Shiho nor did he like her that much.
' Ain't about how fast I get there. Ain't about what's waiting on the other side. It's the climb, yeah!'
Lastly from there group after other students was Suigetsu walking in with a girl name Vidya. The other student's didn't really matter to them. It was seeing each other that mattered. Sharing this day together after all they've been through.
' Keep on moving, keep climbing, keep the faith, baby. It's all about; it's all about the climb. Keep the faith, keep your faith. Whoa.'
As the music fade and the graduates settled in the ceremony was truly about to begin.
000
'Mariah Carey ft Whitney Houston – When you believe' played lightly in the back ground as Tsunade made her way onto stage. Everyone clapped and some whistled and wolf howls were heard from the graduates. She smiled and waved to them as she made her way to the podium to deliver her speech.
When she reached she adjusted the microphone and glanced at everyone in the crowd. "Good afternoon parents, teachers, members of staff, guess and my wonderful graduates. It's a pleasure to say you came from my school and that I am your principal."
"Whoahoo!" Someone cheered in the middle row.
"Class of 2013, congratulations you all made it and today's 'your' big day." Naruto and Kiba pumped their fist in the air making some laugh.
"Today you leave as an adult. You walked in here as kids and now you've grown into brilliant men and women ready to face the world as adults. I enjoyed having you all here and it's the first time I can remember all of your names correctly, no but really, you are a bunch I would defiantly remember. I came to consider you all as my own. And I know the working world would accept you into their business for you all are brilliant and talented in your own ways." The crowd laughed lightly at her little jokes.
She wiped a stray tear and smiled at the graduated looking up at her, for once they were all paying attention, she truly would miss them.
"Now let's have a round of applause for Karin, Matsuri and Hinata signing a lovely sound for you all."
The three walked out form back stage as Tsunade walked off and the crowd began to cheer on for them. It was time for their performance and they were ready. They had sneak back stage during one of the speeches form one of the guess so they'd get ready.
000
The lights dimmed and the music began playing. The three girls started swaying with their microphones in front their face. The slide that was set up grew larger and pictures of the graduates were on display.
Karin was the first to begin singing her voice echoing through the hall. "And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives. Where we're gonna be when we turn 25." A picture of Sasuke and the guys after a football match showed up on screen. The memories of that day played through many of the guy's head, the fun they had in kicking the other schools ass.
Hinata: "I keep thinking times will never change. Keep on thinking things will always be the same." Matsuri sang as back up on Hinata: "Be the same."
Karin: "But when we leave this year we won't be coming back. No more hanging out cause we're on a different track." A picture of the girls and some of their class mates covered in flour came up. And the day Naruto thought it would be funny to throw flour in front a fan that was on the girls came to mind.
Somehow the blonde had gotten away after pulling that prank.
Karin: "And if you got something that you need to say. You better say it right now cause you don't have another day." Matsuri sang as back up on Karin this time: "Another day."
Hinata: "Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down. These memories are playing like a film without sound." Sakura glanced at Tenten and Temari and smiled, the realisation was now kicking in. She wanted to cry but she wouldn't today she'd hold it back until later on. She and her group had made plans to hang out after the ceremony.
Matsuri: "And I keep thinking of that night in June. I didn't know much of love. But it came too soon." She looked at Gaara as she sang this part.
Karin: "And there was me and you. And we got real blue." Karin winked at Sakura and Ino, and then gave Temari and Tenten a small smile. "Stay at home talking on the telephone."
Matsuri: "And we would get so excited and we'd get so scared. Laughing at ourselves thinking life's not fair." Matsuri gave a little point to the slide. There was a dis-play of many pictures together showing a collage.
A picture with the classes mixed together excitedly cheering on, for a sports completion. Then there was a picture of Naruto scared and hiding behind Kakashi away from Tsunade. Then a picture of the classes smiling and laughing at a class party having fun.
Hinata gave a sweet hum before Karin came in. "And this is how it feels."
The three girls sang together. "As we go on. We remember. All the times we had together. And as our lives change, form whatever; we would still be friends forever."
As the violins play in the back ground random pictures of everyone came on. From Kiba and RockLee running a race, to Shino and Neji in lab class. Ino at cheer practice and Sakura, Hianta and Tenten in swimming class. They even had some with Temari and Gaara to.
Hinata: "So if we get the big jobs and we make the big money."
Matsuri: "When we look back now, will our jokes still be funny?"
Karin: "Will we still remember everything we learn in school? Sill be trying to brake every single rule." She winked at Naruto and Kiba the two most troublemakers in the entire school.
Matsuri: "Every rule."
Hinata: "Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man? Can Heather find a job that won't interfere with her tan?"
Karin: "I just keep; keep thinking that's it's not good bye."
Matsuri: "Not goodbye."
Karin: "Keep on thinking it's our time to fly."
Hinata: "Whoahooo."
Matsuri: "And this is how it feels."
All three girls: "As we go on, we remember, all the times we, had together. And as our lives change. Come whatever, we will still be Friends forever. La la la la la la la la, la la la la la la la, yeah, yah, yeah, la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la, la la la la la la la la. We will still be friends forever."
The girls swayed to the violins tune as everyone looked at the display of pictures. Ino held back her laughter as pictures of Sayuri covered in mud came up. Sakura covered her lips with her hands. Hianta, Ino, Shino and she were in charge of putting the pictures together. They had to put some embarrassing pictures of Sayuri, after what she did to Karin.
Karin: "Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now."
Hinata: "Can we survive it out there?"
Matsuri: "Can we make it somehow?"
Karin: "Somehow."
Hianta: "I guess I thought that this would never end."
Karin: "And suddenly it's like we're women and men."
Matsuri: "Will the past be a shadow that will follow us around?"
Hinata: "Will these memories fade when I leave this town. I keep, keep thinking it's not goodbye."
Matsuri: "It's not goodbye."
Karin: "Keep on thinking it's our time to fly."
Hinata sang backup while Matsuri and Karin sang: "As we go on. We remember. All the times we had together, and as our lives change come whatever. We will still be friends forever."
Karin sang backup this time while Hinata and Matsuri sang: "As we go on. We remember. All the times we had together, and as our lives change come whatever. We will still be friends forever"
Matsuri was the one to sing backup while Karin and Hinata sang: "As we go on. We remember. All the times we had together, and as our lives change come whatever. We will still be friends forever"
As the song came to an end the crowd clapped and the graduates screamed. Hinata, Karin and Matsuri took a bow and made their way back stage before they joined their friends once more.
"That was freaking awesome." Karin hugged her friends as they heard the host of the ceremony asking for another round of applause. Shizune was the host of course.
"Congratulations girls." Hianta smiled excitedly, they did an excellent job and they were proud of themselves for it.
000
Kakashi_sensie was standing a little to the right of the podium getting ready to hand out certificates to his class. Tsunade took her place behind the podium so she'd call out names for the students while he did his job.
He'd also have to take a picture while doing this with each student. 'Bruno Marz – Today my life begins' played in the background as Tsunade began calling names.
Again Choji's name was first in their group and for once the he didn't have chips or something to eat with him. "Go Choji!" Ino screamed out clapping loudly, Shikamaru rolled his eyes at her but cheered for his friend.
Next in their group was Gaara, when his name was called Matsuri and Temari were the loudest in the crowd. They screamed for him as he took his picture. They weren't the only ones, the entire female populations cheered him on to.
"Hianta Huyga." Hinata stiffly got up but loosened up when her girls, Naruto and her friends cheered her on. "Hianta_chan!" Naruto yelled.
"Hinata! Hinata!" Kiba barked out casing her to giggle a bit. She smiles when she saw Kurenai standing up and clapping loudly for her. Since Hinata's mothers passing she had found a second mother in the woman.
"Whoahoooo! Ino!" Sakura screamed and Tenten whistled out for the blonde on stage. Ino did a little wave on stage as if it was a beauty pageant she was participating in and took her place for the picture.
Karin and Suigetsu roared on for Jugo and everyone did the same for Kiba, however Kiba did wolf howls for himself as he made his way to collect his certificate. Karin stopped in the middle of the stage popped a piece sign before continuing on her way. This made everyone scream even louder.
Matsuri was shy on stage but today she walked gracefully and did some fist pumping on stage. Naruto had screamed out 'I'm done with this place' on stage and Tsunade smacked him. Then he slapped Kakashi on the back and did some fist pumping.
At least he didn't paint his face again, like he did for their class picture in freshman year.
Neji didn't do much but Tenten and Hinata screamed there heads of for him. RockLee ran to Guy_sensei first to hug him and shouted 'youthfulness wins' before taking his picture.
Sasuke didn't do much except pat Kakashi on the back. Besides his friends and fan girls Naruto and Sakura had cheered the loudest. So did Chieri and his mum, but he was sure Sakura would lose her voice after all that screaming she did for him and to think she had to deliver a speech later on.
When Sakura made her way on stage the hold school erupted, even Sasuke screamed her name out. Deidara, Hidan and Kisame were crying while Chieri jumped out of her seat. The girls howled and Naruto roared for her. Sakura had given Tsunade and Kakashi hugs before getting her picture taken.
Sai, Shikamaru and Shino did nothing as well on their turns but the crowd was loud. Suigetsu, Tenten and Temari had done a little happy dance on stage before leaving and the end of handing out certificates were coming to near and it was nerve raking for Sakura because she had to do her speech after.
Much to Kakashi's and Tsunade's relief, standing there for so long was no fun. Not to mention if you were wearing heels as tall as Tsunade's.
000
Sakura took a deep breath as the host call her name for her to come out on stage to deliver her speech. She was feeling panicky about this. When the crowd cheered loudly and the back ground music 'Superman – Five for fighting' began playing softly in the background she walked out.
The crowd roared on as she made her way to the podium. Her nerves slipped away with ease when she looked down at her friends. Sasuke nod to her, Naruto gave a thumb up and Sai gave a wink. Her girls smiled and her friends wore encouraging faces.
They were all helping her be brave and confident. With another deep breath she smiled and began her long but meaningful speech.
"Tsunade_sama, members of the school board, teachers, parents, friends and fellow graduates, it's an honour to speak to all of you today. It seems like just yesterday doesn't it? We walked through that gate for the first time. Bigheads, tiny body's and this huge bag of books on our backs." The crowd gave a small laugh at her statement. She swallowed and let out a little sight, she was in high spirits that they were laughing at her jokes.
"Just like now we didn't know what to expect in life back then. Our nerves may get the best of us sometimes but know one thing we made it through History classes with Ibiki_sensei we can make it through anything, right." More laughter came from the crowd especial form Ibiki_sensei.
"My point is keep working for what you want and you'd get it but also have fun while doing this. Never let anything stop you from what you want, not even your nerves, nothing and no one should stop you from achieving your goal and dreams. You can do what you want if you work hard at it. We all know we'd have our up's and down's but that's just life right. Try to make someone smile everyday and life will smile upon you." She took a breath and smiled down at everyone.
Her hands were a bit clammy but she held herself together, she didn't know why she was this nervious, it wasn't the first time she's been on stage, she has been on this stage countless of times and she never felt like this before.
Being valedictorian was a big deal, to her it was at least and she didn't want to mess up. It was probably the fact that this was her last time on stage doing something like this for her school as a student that shock her nerves.
"This moment will be in our memories for ever and so would our high school experience. We'd find new things in life as we go on our separate ways, we are sitting with future doctors, lawyers, prime ministers properly, hey when you become these things don't forget Sakura Haruno." Everyone laughed a bit at this, some gave out yells of 'of course not'.
"But really now don't forget each other, we'd always be friends for ever like the song sung by Matsuri, Karin and Hinata. I mean we did some of the most bazaar things together. Got in trouble, broke classes together. I'm not saying I did Tsunade_sama, mum, dad." The crowd laughed when she gave a cheesy smile with her statement.
Bothe her parents and Tsunade chuckled though her mother was in tears and her father was barely hanging on.
"The times Naruto got us all a free period, because of one of his pranks." Naruto stood up and did a fist pump and a jester that he was proud of himself. The crowd cheered and laughed at this.
"Don't forget his partner in crime: Kiba, Choji, Suigetsu and sometimes our boy genius Shikamaru." More laugher was heard as Kiba and Suigetsu got up and bowed. Choji sank in his seat when his mother looked at him and Shino patted Shikamaru on the back.
"Oh the times you needed a shoulder to cry on and someone to cheer you up or simply be there we all had a friend in each other who was always there for you." Sakura looked as Hinata making it obvious she was referring to her, Hinata smiled proudly and Sakura gave a wink when the others nod to this.
"Or the best teams in the world and our great star players Sasuke and Neji, if it weren't for them we properly won't have any school trophies." The crowd cheered especially the fan girls she jokingly said it so she wouldn't offend the other team members but there was truth to her words and even they knew it.
"Our school knows how to welcome new students and make them feel at home, I'm proud about this." She glanced at Temari and Gaara everyone cheered for the siblings because they were the only two recent addition to their school.
"Don't forget our combination of Shino, Sai and Jugo they like to pull pranks to which always involved bugs. I wonder why?" Jugo, Shino and Sai laughed at the memories of scaring the girls in their classes.
"How about the times you needed a prep talk and RockLee would give a long one about youthful living." Everyone chuckled at this as Lee did a nice guy pose.
"Someone to be tough for you," she looked down at Tenten, they shared a smile, "or sweet to you," she glanced at Matsuri, the brunette blushed, "someone that would just get you," she was referring to Ino and the blonde knew that, " or someone who'd climb that mountain with you," Karin and Sakura smiled at each other. People cheered on and clapped for this part of the speech sharing smiles with their own friends.
"We've all made it class of 2013, we made it together and now were leaving together. Congratulations to you all and have a blessed and successful life. Oh and thanks for letting me stand in front you all and rant on about High Scholl and life."
With that Sakura gathered her papers and waved to the crowds as she walked off stage and to her seat. Everyone stood up and cheered on. They all did some claps, howling, screaming and fist pumping for the pink hair girl. On her way to her seat she received congratulations on a great speech and pats on the back.
Sakura just smiled at everyone and to herself. But honestly she felt like a great weight has been lifted of her shoulders.
000
After a few more speeches from the guesses Temari, Tenten and Ino were called on stage to perform their dance. Temari was extremely nervous about this. She was still a newbie to the school and to dance for the graduation ceremony was big.
She had heard some people gossiping about whether she'd do good or not. They were saying that they hope she didn't spoil Ino and Tenten routine.
She knew she had to do well; she had to prove to them she's as good as the other guy. "Don't be nervous Tem, we worked hard for this, our hard work would pay off but don't forget we are only human." Tenten murmured to her as they walked onto stage. Their dance would be a mix of ballet and street dance just like in step up.
They decided to dance to 'I know I can by Nas.' As the piano sound started playing the three girls began dancing. Their moves equally, matched and they were making everyone excited and worked up. Doing their spins and turns the crowd grew eager by the minute.
Some of their moves were a little inappropriate but noting to make a fuss over. Tenten saw the way Neji looked at her from the corners of her eyes but tried to not pay him any attention. He made her feel tingles all over her body, so she focused on her moves and her girlfriends from the crowd.
The graduates stood up clapping and signing along while swaying from side to side.
Ino was accustom to doing this, she was always ready to dance for school programs. To think this may be her last performance made her a bit sad. But Sakura had told her they could always do classes together in collage, all seven of them. So she thought of that instead of the sad fact that she's leaving school.
Temari just couldn't believe her journey in this new school was shortly ending. She knew it only felt so because she had fun. When you're having fun, time flies. When she just moved she thought of keeping to herself, hang with her brother. Never would she have thought she'd be dancing for her graduation ceremony with two of her best friends.
The song they had chosen couldn't be any better it was a positive song. It suited graduation as well and it was perfect for the dance routine they wanted to do.
The song was coming to an end and the girls were doing their finishing moves. Everyone began cheering them on as the music stopped and they bowed.
When they walked of stage they heard Sakura and Karin screaming. Hinata and Matsuri were yelling to the top of their lungs about the great job they did. They felt proud about this and Ino kept blabbering about hard work pays off.
000
Finally the ceremony was coming to a close. Principal Tsunade was giving her closing speech and congratulating the graduates as they stood and shifted the string on the tops of their caps to the other side symbolizing that they were no longer students of the school.
They had tossed their caps up already and now they were standing. The song 'Crazier by Taylor Swift began playing and they began filing out slowly. The same order they came in with, they would walk out the same.
This was it, they were done. They were no longer High School students. They all had mix feelings about this situation, they were happy yet sad, excited yet scared.
When it was surly over everyone was spread out meeting their friends and family. Taking pictures and signing their year books. Excitement filled the air as they spoke of their plans for the future and this evening. Some cried for others because they were leaving town, everyone's emotions were all over the place.
"Naruto! Naruto! You made it through high school. Congratulations bro!" Sakura jumped onto her blonde friends behind her was Sai, Ino and Sasuke. He caught her and gave her a small spine.
"Thanks." He said sarcastically. "Anyway congratulations, I knew you'd make it through. Where are the others?" Sakura shrugged but soon she was crowded by the girls and some of the guys in their group.
"Group hug!" Ino screamed out pulling in some of her friends who were closer to her. They all came in closer making a very big group hug. The others saw this and joined in with their friends, some by force.
"Ok, ok let's get a few pictures taken and then let's get a move on if we want to make our plans for this evening come through." RockLee ordered, the music in the back ground was setting the mood of graduation and made them remember the enjoyable times they had.
Everyone struck a pose as Naruto's parents came over to take a picture and congratulate them.
(To be continue – ish)
That's all for today my lovely readers :)
As always please review as I said so many times it lets me know that your reading and what you thought about my story and all that jazz. Have any questions leave it in a review or pm me and I'd pm you back.
OMG this story is coming to an end very soon! I hope I did a good job at setting the graduation feels in this chapter.
(PS: I rewrite the valedictorian speech because I thought it was a little to bias on Sakura's behalf because she called out all her friends name and no one else so I changed it a little while doing corrections.)
Have a bless day/night my.
Love ya all!
