I was kind of dreading but then again I couldn't wait any longer. I had to know, and it wasn't one of those 'Oh I can wait a week or a month or so' no this was a we have to know now. Because after graduation my life will be changed for ever.

We came back to my house after about an hour an half in the park talking and staring at the moon and stars. We got a little bit closer and got to talk a little about our future together. Weather we had one or not.

I took a deep breath and opened the door. "Well here goes nothing." I said under my breath. There sat my parents' right where they were when we left. I could tell that they had been talking for a long time, due to me noticing their expressions. After they had long talks, especially about me, they always had the same face.

The same expression, I knew that they had came up with an answer and it probably wasn't the easiest answer for them. I mean after all they were basically choosing my future.

"Raven, your mother and I have talked about weather this is the right choice or not." My dad said, I could see he was tired from probably talking to my mom.

"We've decided to give you our blessing." EKKK I couldn't believe that they said 'yes', but I also felt kind of hurt by my parents. Then my mother continued.

"We've been talking this whole time. We were first going to say no, but then you two reminded us of what we were like. Young and in love, and you even kept Alexander's secret. That proves that you are really devoted and in love with each other. He would even protect you ….from anything." My mother finished.

After my mom finished talking she came over and hugged me. Normally I would laugh and push her away, but now I didn't.

..::..The next day ..::..

For some reason today day I was actually up before 6:30. I walked into my bathroom and took a 30 minute shower. The hot water ran over my body and relieved some of the stress that has been hanging on my body for the past few weeks and years.

After the shower I dried off and got dressed up in my last school outfit I would wear. It consisted of a Tripp red plaid stripe corset, a Tripp black lace up skirt, Tripp black and red argyle skull arm warmers, and of course my awesome trade maker black combat boots.

I actually was outside waiting for Becky. Becky pulled up in my drive way a few minutes later. She came in as she did everyday, honking her horn yelling "Raven get up"

"Umm Bec I'm over here…" I said kind of innocently. I grabbed my backpack for the last time and go in to the front seat of her pick up.

"Wow Raven your actually here on time. That's strange. Who are you and what did you do with the real Raven?" Becky interrogated.

"Well I couldn't sleep that well last night. And it's still me, the same ol' me." I said thinking of why I really didn't sleep well last night.

"Hey what's that one your finger? Did Alexander give that to you?" Okay now I think SOMEONE should be driving instead of staring at my hands.

"Yeah, he gave it to me last night. He wants me to go with him and his parents to France over the summer." So I kind of lied, but I know Becky is my best friend. Just I couldn't trust her, well not now. Ever since she began dating Matt, she tells him everything.

That's why I'm afraid to tell her my soon to be secret and Alexander's secret. And of course I couldn't tell her about my wedding / covenant ceremony, I mean I love Alexander and everything it's just. I'm not sure if I want to give my life away right now.

That whole day, while every other senior was living up the last day of school, and saying goodbye to old teachers and friends that were going to college, I was stuck wondering about tomorrow.

Tomorrow was graduation and the next night was going to be my convent ceremony, then a few days later my wedding. I asked Alexander why we couldn't have the wedding right after the convent ceremony.

He said it probably wasn't a good idea, and that I would have to find out myself. According to him he asked his parents the same thing and his father said that we would have to wait a few days. I really don't get why, but I guess I'll have to find out. [ that's what his dad told me.

"Hey Raven what's wrong? You haven't talked all day?" Becky asked me, and honestly I wouldn't blame her I mean I haven't even glared at the all of the rich kids. Except for one person that I would love to hate every single minute of everyday.

"What are you staring at monster girl." Of course Trevor always had the nerve to call me that stupid baby name.

"I'm staring at the wall. Besides why would you care?" I'm still not sure why Trevor insists on doing this to me. If he likes me then shouldn't he tell me? Not Trevor he just teases me and even though he KNOWS I have boyfriend, he still torments me. He's like Jagger, only not a vampire.

"I don't care, I just thought you finally found out why every other girl always stares at me?" I knew he was going to say that….

"Oh so that's why they are so stupid. I mean staring at your ugly face would do that to someone. I guess it's too late for me." I could have said so many more things to him but I was tired.

"What did you just say!!!!!" And now he's mad. He was going to hit me but he was too late the last bell had just rung. "You lucked out, But I swear I'll get you!" He screamed as I was leaving. I stopped. Turned around and said...

"Didn't anyone tell you swearing was bad." I gave his that Tsk Tsk that my parents always give me. Ad with that I was gone. I climbed into Becky's Pickup and we drove home. Talking about our days, this was defiantly one of the best day's of school…..
