Monday June 1, 2007: High school graduation:

"Isabella Marie Swan." the principle said announcing my name, from his list of graduating students. I got up from the place I was sitting at and walk up the steps towards him.

I could hear the crowd cheering and clapping when I got across the stage. My mom dad and even Phil was smiling proudly , taping me with their camcorders. I waved to them. And than I saw Steven giving me a thumbs up. I gave him a smile and blow him a air kiss.

"Congratulations." the principal said when I was standing next to him. He handed me a diploma.

"Thank you." I said shaking his hand.

I took the diploma and shake all the school board director's hands and walked back down towards my seat again.

Than they called, Jessica's name next.

Jess gave a little squeal. I smiled at her and reached for her hands and squeezed them for luck. She was excited beyond words.

A half hour later, the ceremony was officially over, and I ran over to Steven and Alyson and gave them a big hug.

"Congratulations." I told them. "I cant believe we made it."

"You too, Bella." Steven said giving me a kiss. "But it will be me and Alyson's second time we graduated from high school. Each time is just as exciting as the last."

We stayed in the group hug for a few minutes savoring the sweet moment between us.

Steven and Alyson both have the same talent, since they were twins by birth before they were changed. They both possessed the power to age themselves, to the human eye, if they want to. When in actuality, they are actually not aging. Pretty cool huh? So that way they don't have to move to place to place like the Cullen's do.

Steven likes to stay young, so he and Alyson made to got back to the age of eighteen. Which was a good decision because I met Steven.

Than Mike, Eric, Angela, Ben and Jessica came over to us.

"Hey, congratulations." Jessica said hugging me.

"Thanks, Jess." I said to her happily. "Congratulations to you too."

"Cant you believe it? High school is finally over! I cant believe it is finally over." Ben said.

"I know." I said. "I woke up this morning, and had to pinch myself, and wonder if I was dreaming."

Just than my Mom, dad and Phil came over to me. They each congratulated me again.

I gave my mom another hug. I really missed her. I barely get to see her all year.

"We can take you all out for dinner, Bella." Phil said. "All your friends are invited."

"That's a great idea." I said. "You guys want to come?"

"Yeah, sure. But I have to ask my mom." Jessica said.

"Everyone is invited. Even your parents." My mom said.

*******

"So what are you going to be doing now, Steven?" my mom asked. My mom never met my boyfriend till now. I told her about him. And my mom seem to really like him, which is a really good sign.

"This kid is going to, Dartmouth along with Bella." My dad said proudly. "And he is going to major in international business."

I rolled my eyes. My father loves Steven. When I was with Edward, my father liked him but not like he likes Steven. My father said Edward is just okay. But with Steven, my dad is overjoyed when he comes over. Everyone loves Steven, you just cant help it.

Steven just smiled. "Charlie is right, I am going to Dartmouth and major in international business. I always have an interest with business. And plus, Bella is going there, and I want to be close to her. I love your beautiful daughter."

My mom and my dad smiled.

I leaned over to kiss Steven.

"So what about you, Mike?" mom asked. "What are you and Jessica going to be doing now?"

"Jess and I are going to Arizona state." Mike said. "Bella suggest it, and we went on a trip down there in March and we love it there. And we were both overjoyed when we both got accepted it there."

Than she turned to Angela and Ben. "Bella tells me, that a wedding is in the works. So when is the big day?"

"In about two weeks." Angela said.

"Any plans for college?" Mom asked.

"Yes, we will both be attending Forks Community college." Ben said.

"Good." Mom said relieved. "A college education is very important."

"And what about you Eric?"

"I am going to MIT."

"Wow." my mom said. "That is a good school. Phil's niece is going there too. What are you majoring in?"

"Computer engineering." Eric said.

"That is such a good field." my dad said. "My brother went to the school, he loves it. He is class of 99, and never lets me forget it."

"And what about you, Alyson?" my mom asked finally turning her attention to her.

"I am going to Sarah Lawrence. It's a woman's college." Alyson said. "It's where my mom went before she died."

By mom, she was referring to her birth mom not her adapted mom Esther.

"Bella told me about your mom. I am so sorry for your lost. I am sure you are going to make your mother proud."

"Yeah." Alyson said.

"Anyways, I am so glad Bella made so many good friends here at Forks. When Bella suggests that she move here with her father, I thought she was nuts. When she said this place grew on her, I was sure she lost her mind. But now I see, all the great and wonderful friends she have, and I see why she likes it here."

"So Phil." Steven said. "How's the baseball career going?"

"It's going great." Phil said his face lighting up. "I am finally playing professionally. I am playing for the Oakland A's during the fall."

"Phil, Steven loves baseball." I told him. "He loves it as much as you do."

"Really?" Phil said.

"Yup." I said. "In fact on our first date, he took me to a baseball game."

"You went on a baseball game?" Phil said surprised. He knows I don't really like anything that is sports related.

"Yup." I said. "I even played baseball with him too. I must really love him."

"And I was shocked." Dad said. "Bella told me that Steven was talking her to the park to play baseball with their friends, and I was thinking, really? What the heck happened to my Bella. The Bella I know would never play baseball."

"Except for that one time, dad." I said thinking of the Cullen's.

"Yes." dad said his smile dimming a little. "Except for that one time. But other than that, Bella will never agree to play any sports. Imagine, Bella playing sports, with her poor hand and eye coordination."

"Dad, stop making fun of me." I said.

The dinner went really well. The atmosphere, is warm and bubbly. Phil and Steven is talking baseball. Mom, dad and the rest of the parents were swapping stories about their kids. And Jessica, Angela, Alyson and I are talking about wedding plans. Mike, Eric and Ben are discussing cars.

This has to be the most wonderful night of my life.

And I owe it all to Steven and Alyson. Before I would of never imagined, myself being this happy again.
