Chapter Twenty-One: Shining With Happiness

"Guy Trevors." The principal called. Guy stood up and received a huge hug from Paris, then walked over to receive his diploma. In the seats behind the graduates the three charmed ones clapped along with the two whitelighters. They were proud that Guy was able to live to see this day. It was times like these that made them happy to help innocents, the feeling of accomplishment.

After Guy received his diploma the principal called "Paris Turner." Paris smiled happily, and walked proudly up to receive the certificate. When she took the diploma from the principal, and shook his hand. She looked out across the crowd of people to see her mother, father, aunts, uncle, nephew, and boyfriend giving a standing ovation. Tears of happiness streamed her face. She smiled at them and walked off the platform.

Tears also fell from Phoebe, Piper, and Paige's faces with happiness. They were so proud of Paris. She had had such a year, fighting demons, one happening to be her ex-boyfriend, and doing homework. But she managed to balance it out, truly proving that a person could handle being a witch and manage a normal life together as one.

After all the names had been called the principal smiled and told the students "Congratulations class of 2003." And the students threw their hats into the air, and yelled excitedly.

On the way out of the auditorium, Guy pulled Paris aside.

Paris gave him a curious look, and asked "What?"

Guy smiled and replied. "Thanks for well you know."

She sighed "Well graduation just wouldn't have been the same without you." and they walked out together to find Whinny and Hope.

When they found their two other friends they all just smiled at each other joyfully, letting the moment soak in. After a minute Hope squealed "Group hug!" and Whinny, Hope, Paris and Guy all embraced.

P3 was roaring with laughter, dancing, music, and cheerful conversation. The members of the Hallowell family sat in their usual seats in the club. Paris had opened her graduation gifts, and had received about ten million hugs and kisses from her family. She had also received a special visit from Grams, and Ma both of them telling her how proud they were. Paris could burst with happiness, and if she died that very moment she would go with enough love to last her an entire eternity. Even with all that had happened in the recent events Paris's moment could not have been dampened. After all that's what happiness is, complete and udder joy without worry, and right now Paris was shining brightly with it.
