It was 5 months later and it was graduation day for the circle of friends and it was the day that they hoped would never come. It was the day that they all had to say goodbye. John, Trish and Amy were all staying in California and going to a local community college. Dave decided that he was going to play college football for Washington State College, which meant he had to leave Amy behind. Stacy and Adam were preparing to leave on their journey. Stacy was the valicditorian of their graduating class and was thrilled. Adam wanted to be on his way as soon as possibe but Stacy didn't. She wanted to spend as much time with her friends as possible, so she decided that she would stay the summer and she would catch up with Adam as soon as summer was over. Dave decided that he would do the same, he didn't want to leave Amy but he had to think about his future, but to Amy, Dave was her future and it killed her knowing he would leave.

Trish and John figured out that it was hard to spend a weekend apart and they didn't want to think about what it would be like if they had to go to different schools so they decided to stay in California and be together. Randy still hadn't returned but everyday Stacy found it easier, and easier to not think about him and not hurt. She couldn't help but wonder if he went back to school or if he's alright? but she knew that she couldn't spend her whole life worrying about him, Randy made his choice and Stacy knew she shouldn't be the one to pay for his actions. Stacy was since living with John and his family and the adoption had been finalized meaning John and Stacy were officially brother and sister. John could never bring himself to like Adam even tho he promised Randy he would like any guy that came along as long as it wasn't him. It turns out that was just a lie John told himself because he was so angry at Randy for leaving Stacy the way he did. John had done everything he could to drive Adam away but the guy wouldn't budge, and what made things worse was that Stacy was plannig on spending a whole year with him by herself and he wasn't about to let that happen. Even if that meant he had to track Randy down and drag him by his hair and bring him back himself.

"Stacy you can't leave with him!" John yelled as he followed an annoyed Stacy around his house.

"Yes I can, and guess what? I am!" Stacy yelled back as she got in his car and slammed the door.

John huffed and fixed his cap and gown and got in the drivers seat and turned on the engine.

"Stacy what if Randy comes back huh? What if he comes back and your not here?" John asked as he backed out of the drive way and headed tot heir graduation.

"He's not coming back John, and I've made peace with that." Stacy said sadly

"He's said he'd come back and I believe he will." John said as Stacy just laughed.

"John it's been 5 months, were graduating today and the police know that he didn't kill Maven. He's coming back and I have to move on." Stacy opend the car door and got out as John came to a complete stop.

"But not with Adam! Anyone but Adam, Stacy!" John pleaded with his tall blonde sister.

"Ya know John, this little conversation were having sounds all too familiar." Stacy said referring to when Stacy was with Randy.

"That was different." John said curling his ball up into a fist.

"How?" Stacy asked amused

"Randy actually loved you, Adam doesn't! he just wants someone to fill that empty void in his life." John said as he followed Stacy towards the ceremony.

"Who's says that's not what I want?" Stacy retorted as John gave Stacy a disappoiting look.

John walked past Stacy as she prepared to give her valicdictorian speech. Stacy felt like this was the end of everything. She was scared of leaving all her friends and family. What if Adam got bored with her and decided they weren't going to work? Stacy shook all her thoughts and walked up to the podeum when her name was called. Stacy took a deep breath and looked out to all the people.

"Good morning everyone! I'm Stacy Keibler and I want you all to welcome to the class of 2006 graduation ceremony. I first off want to start out by saying how proud I am of all my fellow classmates. You all worked so hard to get here and I just want to say that it was an honor knowing you all. Thank you for all the memories and I want ot be the first one to wish you all the luck in the worls in your lives. This has been a rough year for all of us and I know that first hand, but we all made it through. Some of us were the known as the achievers, some where the under achievers, and some were just they're own individual person. But most of us were just lonely people. We were lonely people who found comfort in one another, me especially. So I want you all to take a good look at the person sitting beside you and shake their hand. Even if the person sitting next to you wasn't a considered a friend or more an enemy, they are what made you stronger and more motivated to get where you are today. Thank you all for always being the amazing people you are and please remember to never be what your not. Thank you once again and good luck." Stacy walked off stage as everyone in the audience stood up and gave Stacy a standing ovation.

Stacy took a seat as the principal started to call out names and hand out diplomas. 45 minutes later every one had recieved their diplomas and the O's, Randy's name was announced and everyone looked around waiting to see if he would show up.

"Randall Orton!" Mr.McMahon announced a second time, no one came foward and Mr.McMahon moved on.

"Wait!" A voice yelled as everyone turned around and to their suprise there Randy was running up to the stage and taking his diploma from the principal.

Everyone was shocked but no one was more shocked than Stacy. Randy stood on stage and stared at Stacy as tears started to form in her eyes.

"Randy!" Stacy whispered as she turned to look at Adam who had a sad expression on his face.

"I'm sorry" Stacy mouthed to Adam and he nodded knowing what she had to do.

Stacy got up on stage with Randy and stared into his eyes for a moment but to Randy it felt like an eternity. Stacy's look of confusin quickly faded and she raised her hand and slapped Randy across the face as everyone gasped in shock and all Randy heard was the sound of Stacy's hand meeting with his face.
