Graduation

Rating: PG -13 just to be safe
AN: I think this is a record, three updates in two days and I started a new story. It's for Lizzie McGuire. I know it sounds like it would be really stupid but there are actually really good stories for that category. Anyway I promise that I will update more often but not as much as these last three chapters have been. I have school starting on Monday, I'm going to be a sophomore this year and I was stupid enough to take English honors, on top of that I have cheerleading three times a week, plus dance, and the ever-enjoyable hour bus ride to and from school. Oh I just can't wait. SO I promise an update at least once a week.

It is a month later, the day of graduation. Joey, the class valedictorian was now 4 ½ months pregnant. She was also engaged, a fact that was only known to a few select people, Bessie, Gretchen, Doug, her father, and her mother. She planned to let everyone know when the time was right. However it was not that time now, in fact it was time for her to get to her graduation.
At the ceremony "Oh my god, Joey Potter I can't believe it. Jack just told me. I am so excited for you." Joey knew who it was before she even turned around.
"Andie, how are you. We've missed you so much." The two girls stepped into a hug. "And I'm guessing you are talking about the pregnancy thing. I can't really believe it either. At first I was really scared but everyone has given me so much support." Joey wasn't sure if Andie would be upset that she was having Pacey's baby, but she seemed so happy, Joey knew that it was genuine.
"Would all the graduates please come to your places on the stage." An announcer said over the loud speakers. With that all the students, or at least all those who were graduating walked over to the stage so that the ceremony could start.
The guest speaker was a local politician and Joey and Jack talked through the whole thing. Jack was graduating as salutatorian. After the speaker was done, their principal introduced Jack. He gave a speech about accepting everyone, no matter what they were like. He told everyone how that is what high school is about. People change and these changes will reveal their true selves as well as their true friends. Everyone clapped at the end of his speech. Andie was especially proud of her brother. Next it was Joey's turn.
"Good Afternoon everyone. My speech isn't very long, which I'm sure to all of us students is a relief because I know that we all want to get out of here." Everyone laughed at this and Joey continued with her speech. "My whole life I have been faced with challenges, ranging from learning how to ride a bike to dealing with my father being arrested, and finally my most recent challenge, becoming pregnant. Well I learned how to ride my bike and my father has been recently paroled, just to mention a few of the challenges that I have overcome. This reassures me that I will be able to deal with this pregnancy, however not without the help of my friends and family. That is what I wanted to tell you today, never forget the people who were there for you, your best friend, your sister or brother, your parents or step-parents, grandparents, even those people who you may not have always got along with but were still there to help you back up when you took a fall, old loves, new loves, and even in my case fiancées. These are people who were there for you at times when your life wasn't so great and I can guarantee that you will need them again. Don't leave them and always let them know how much they mean to you. I know that I always will. So before I go I just want to say thank you to some people who helped me, Bessie, Dad, Dawson who has always helped me, Gretchen, Jen, Jack, Andie, Pacey who I will always love, and Mom. I miss you and love you. Thanks everyone and congratulations. We Did It!!!!
Diploma's were handed out and before they knew it graduation was over. Jack, Jen, Andie, Joey, and Pacey headed over to the Leery house for a party. They stayed out until one in the morning, even Joey although she was exhausted and fell asleep in the truck on the way back to the B&B.

Sorry that it was so short, I don't know if it was any good but I wanted to get it posted so I hope that everyone likes it. I promise that the next chapter will have more P/J in it. I might have Jack find someone in the next couple chapters. Does anyone seriously oppose the idea that Dawson is gay, just an idea, nothing definite. Let me know. Oh and please review.
