Summary: Sam, DJ, Caitie and David all entering their senior year of High School. How does it affect everyone knowing that after the next ten months fly by they'll probably never see each other again? ****************************************************************************



Sam was speechless; she didn't know what to say. She started crying happy tears and got out of the swing, kneeling in front of DJ.

"I do." She whispered happily.

DJ broke into a grin and slipped the ring onto Sam's left ring finger. They two then hugged each other tightly.

"I love you Sam." He told her, he was crying too.

"I love you DJ." Sam replied, still crying.

Cheers erupted from beside them. The two broke apart and Sam looked confused but DJ was still grinning.

"SURPRISE!" About twenty voices called in unison.

They all came out from the background. Sam saw Piper, Paige, Leo, Phoebe, DJ's mom, DJ's aunt, Alex, Caitie, David, Wyatt, (being held by Caitie) The man that Alex had danced with, Stacy, Alex's dad; Rick, Missy, Caitie's Dad; Charlie, Caitie's little brother; Jordan (being held by Missy), David's dad; Michael and David's mom; Holly.

"Congratulations Sam." Piper called out to her once everyone had stopped yelling surprise.

Sam's jaw had dropped and she turned back to DJ. "You did all this?"

He nodded. "Too much?"

Sam shook her head. "No. Just right." The two hugged again. ****************************************************************************



A playground full of Congratulations and hugs flew around the park for almost two hours. It turned out that the guy Alex had been dancing with and went off with was DJ's older brother Kyle. Everything had been set up. Piper and Leo had orbed to the park after Sam had left and same with Paige and Phoebe. They had all orbed to the back of the park and ran over to where the rest of the parents, friends and DJ were waiting so nobody else like the other parents, Kyle or Alex would know of their magick's.

"Hey." Phoebe, Paige and Piper had finally made their way to Sam.

"Hey." She greeted.

"Congratulations." They all hugged her one at a time.

"Thank-you guys. This is amazing."

"There's another surprise. I think you'll find it amazing too." Piper told her. Phoebe reached into her purse and pulled out an envelope.

"What's this?" She asked

"Open it." Paige told her as Phoebe handed it to her.

Sam took the envelope into her hands and realized it was from Northwestern University.

"Ohmigod." Sam whispered to herself. She looked up at her sisters and back down to the envelope. "DJ got a scholarship offer from here so I applied. He really wants to go here but only will if I get in too."

"Open It." Piper repeated Paige.

Sam nodded and turned the envelope over, she slip her finger along the gap inside the envelope and pulled the paper out. She hesitated to unfold it.

"Oh god." She whispered. She closed her eyes and unfolded the paper.

She opened them and read the first line. "Oh my!" Her eyes went huge and when she looked back up she was grinning.

"I got it! I was accepted!" All of her sisters hugged her again, this time as a group hug. Once they broke apart, she yelled for DJ.

He came over. "What is it?" He asked, excited. He knew it must be good news. Sam handed him the letter and he looked back up after reading the first line too.

The two tightly embraced each other again, jumping up and down in excitement.

Once they pulled back DJ looked at Sam; they were still holding each other and their faces were only inches apart.

"We're really always going to be together." DJ told her.

"Let's seal the deal." Sam told him. The two kissed and their friends and family all started to cry in tears of joy. More Congratulations went around the park and Sam and DJ were arm-in-arm the rest of the night. ****************************************************************************



"So what are you going to be studying?" Sam asked as her head laid to rest on DJ's shoulder with his arm around her waist. They were sitting together on top of the monkey bars.

They had excused themselves for a little alone time from their friends and family. David and Caitie had done the same as well as Alex and Kyle, who had actually taken a liking to each other when they had danced at P3 and on the drive to the park from P3.

"I don't know to be honest. I've always liked news and media stuff. Maybe I could be a journalist? That would be kind of cool. After Northwestern you have to go to a law school right?"

Sam nodded.

"So maybe I could be a doctor or something. We could look for college's that offer Medical and Law school. I took more sciences then I had to the last three years; I'd be qualified as long as I took the University courses. Or maybe I could be a teacher? I'm good with kids."

Sam nodded; he was always great with Wyatt every time Piper would ask Sam to baby-sit and DJ would come over to help.

"You really want to go back to school after College?" Sam joked

DJ shrugged. "That would be okay. Especially High School."

Sam brought her head up and looked at DJ smiling. "Now why would you want to go back to High School?"

DJ looked at her. "I met you in High School and there's nothing wrong with that." He kissed her hand and Sam chuckled.

"You're going to study law right?"

Sam nodded as she set her head back down on his shoulder.

"So what are you going to be?"

"I don't know. A type of lawyer, I know that. Not defense and not DA. Something where I could help teenagers."

"You mean like a public defender for teenagers or something?" DJ wondered

"Maybe." Sam agreed. "Or maybe I could be a teacher with you but like a guidance counselor. Then again a lot of kids don't go to see counselor unless they're forced to and then they don't talk."

"Yea but maybe if you just go through maybe a grade at a time, calling every other kid down or even all of them, yea it would take a lot of time but they would get the message if they were alone with you."

"I just want to help people. My life was screwed up, kids in the next generation - Wyatt's generation - shouldn't have to go through that. I know that no matter what I do working with teenagers I won't be able to help them all but I might be able to help some so maybe they can help others."

"All I know about the future Sam is that we're going to get married and that whatever you do, you're going to be great at it because you're going to believe in what you're doing."

"You always know what to say." Sam told him. "You always make everything right."

She sat up straight again. "How?"

"I don't know." He admitted. "But every time I'm with you everything seems to be just right so I guess it's you."

The two smiled at each other as they looked into each other's eyes. **************************************************************************** ***************
