We walked into the school together remembering all the things that happened.

"Wow that was my locker!" Vern as he pointed to the red locker. "Good job ,Vern!" I said laughing at him as we started to run down the hall laughing.

We ran to the Gym. And got in there and sat in our seats and waited.

"I'm so happy!" I whispered to Gordie and smiled and laughed at he shook his head and smiled a little.

"Jennifer Lachance" I stood up and walked over to the podium and got my diploma and walked off.

Also there is no relation between Gordie and I if it is I would like kill myself.

I know he' s like my best friend, but if I had to spend that much time with him, like family's do at Christmas, I don't think I would like seeing him on the days I wouldn't have to.

He stood up there with poise and he looked around all sophisticated.

Then he looked into the crowd and looked at us and smiled full of embarrassment.

He quickly covered up his face and laughed a little and then he looked out at the ceiling and started talking about how life was for him and how it was growing up with such good friends.

"So what High School meant to me was getting away from all the troubles in the world"

He smiled and then backed away slowly taking a bow as I started clapping first.

Then everyone started in clapping and his face slowly grew to it's natural pale color.

He sat down and then Principle Tyler walked up to the stand and said with enthusiasm, "Now I give you the class of 1966!!" He yelled as I through my hat up in the air and then caught it and I laughed as everyone else did.

Then I began about going to college in the summer with Chris and Gordie going his separate way by going to a college far away.

I looked over at Chris walking down and he started coming down our aisle as everyone was clearing out to head to the courtyard.

"Oh my ,God, We finally made it!" Chris said as his voice echoed from the now empty room.

"I know!" I said as I was crying a little. "Why are you crying?" Teddy asked as he leaned back in one of the metal chairs.

"I don't know ,Teddy, why don't you tell me?" I said sarcastically throwing my hands in the air as I smiled and looked at his discussed face.

"I'm going to miss all of you guys." I said as I remember my year book at the side of my chair.

"Sign?" I yelled as peppy as I could and handed it to Gordie as I stole a pen from Chris.

"Hey!" He said as I turned and handed it to Gordie as he stared at the pen for awhile then spoke, "You know I wondered where that pen went!" He said with a smile shrugged and went to his messy cursive writing.

"Thanks!" I said as I handed it to Chris and he signed it real long.

I finally sat down and dried my eyes, and sniffled a little and sucked the snot in and watched as they all signed it.

I got up and walked over to the boys and hugged them all.

"I'll really miss you guys." I said as I walked out of there and they all followed me.

"So what are we doing tomorrow?" I asked as we sat on the benches and just stared at each other.

"Well since it is our official time to leave I have a suggestion!!" Vern said as he leaned forward and we all stared at him.

"Well I'm being sent to go visit my cousins in Santa Carla, California." He said as we all expected him to go on with the story, "Go on!" I said moving my hands slightly signaling for him to go on.

"Ok, well I was thinking about…." And before he could finish Teddy butted in and said "Road Trip!!" He raised his hands and clapped them together and stood up.

"Teddy, sit!" I said pulling on his shirt as he fell into the bench.

"Well pretty much!" Vern said as he smiled and then Teddy looked at me with an evil eye.

"So when do we leave?" I asked clapping my hands and then got up and stretched and then looked at Vern.

He smiled and looked at all of us and then said "Tomorrow!" He got up and ran away to his parents and waved a little good-bye and then disappeared into the growing crowd of parents and ex-students.

"Cool!" I said as I started walking away and then the guys followed.

"So what do you think we're taking?" I asked looking at them and thought of the "Ghetto" van that Vern got for his sixteenth birthday.

"Oh, God, I hope it's not the nasty hippie van." Teddy said as he took his glasses off and wiped the accumulating sweat on the lenses.

"Yeah, but at least he'll be able to fit his fat ass in there!!" Chris said as Teddy laughed the most weird laugh in the world.

I started cracking up and then we all stopped and looked at each other.

"We'll I guess I have to spend more time with you morons." I said as I shrugged and let out a deep sigh.

"Yeah, but you gotta love us." Chris said leaning on Gordie's shoulder.

I laughed a little and then said still giggling a little, "Yeah, gotta love you guys." I said as I waved a good-bye and walked over to my car.

The engine roared as I speed away and went home to pack.

My whole family wasn't at the graduation, My mom had work along with everyone else, they seem loving and caring, but deep down they still wished they had stopped at two children.

The new car was a "We're rich and we love you, but we don't want to come to your boring graduation."

Like I said they seem nice, but they ain't.

I was riding down the rode and noticed a hot young blonde walking the streets and was hanging with some buds.

So I came to the stop sign and stopped and stared till I realized that it was that bum Ace and his posse.

I looked and here he comes over to my nice new car to probably distroy it.

So like any normal and sane person would do I speed away when he came to the window.

Ace was the one who was left in Castle Rock after he finally graduated about two years ago.

Eyeball, Billy and Charlie all left together to find chicks every where else, but Castle Rock, so Ace had to find a new posse and teach them how to be a bad ass like he was.
