Who's keeping Score- the 11thand final chapter?
1 YEAR LATER!
I wake up, bright and early, I cannot wait for today, why? Because today's is the day I graduate high school, along with my best friend grace, and jacks friend jerry, and of course my lovely boyfriend jack, along with the rest of my senior class, other than aurora who failed, and has to stay in that hell hole for another year. But I'm also incredibly nervous about today, because- I have something very important to tell jack, but that can wait til later, VERY important. But nonetheless I get up to get dressed, I take a shower first, and do my makeup which is baby pink eye shadow, mascara, eye liner, a little blush, and lip gloss, my hair was all the way curled, I then slipped on the perfect dress, it was a baby pink dress that went to about mid-thigh that poofed out a bit at the bottom, it had a jeweled strap that went around my neck and down to the center of my chest, making a small loop, (link- search?hl=en&site=imghp&tbm=isch&source=hp&biw=1600&bih=799&q=black+high+school+graduation+dresses&oq=black+high+school+graduation+dresses&gs_l=img.3...2376.22525.0.22..3410.3j29.32.0...0...1ac. 1. ..13.23. 1artQU#hl=en&q=high+school+graduation+high+low+dress&tbm=isch&facrc=_&imgdii=TLDFJQFTkyka7M%3A%3BD2QTHd2ESPqIBM%3BTLDFJQFTkyka7 M%3A&imgrc=TLDFJQFTkyka7M%3A%3Be3-EHSaLz40XZM%3Bhttp%253A%252 F%252Fi00. .com%252Fwsphoto%252Fv0%252F882800944% %3Bhttp%253A%252F% .com%252Fprice% %3B832%3B702 ) it was gorgeous, I also had silver and clear, strappy 5 inch heels, for jewelry I had angel earrings and a diamond bracelet. It took me about an hour and a half to get ready, then I went downstairs to see jack talking to my parents in the kitchen, "hi! What are you guys talking about?" I ask, doing my runway walk down the stairs, and before they answered they all stuttered "huh oh nothing Kim" then they look at me, jack comes over to me, and wraps his arms around my waist, "you look gorgeous Kim" he says, pecking my lips after, he pulls away from me, and I look him up and down "oh, what happened to Mr. I don't wear suits?" I ask, teasingly, he tugged on his sleeves "Special occasions only kimmy, and besides I thought I looked nice," he said, tugging on his tie also, which made me chuckle, "you do, and by the way I love the tie, it matches my dress" I say. "Aren't you 2 adorable! And kimmy you look beautiful" my mom squeals, "alright time for pictures," my dad finishes for her, pulling out a camera, so me and jack strike a couple poses together, one normal, one funny, one with our backs against each other's and our arms crossed and we are smiling at each other, and the last one- my favorite- we kiss, both of my parents cooed at this. We began to shuffle out the door "ok mom, dad, I'll see you there." I say as we walk out "ok, kimmy, we love-"before I shut the door.
Time skip- at graduation
We finally arrive at the school, and at the stage in the midst football field, and it was a crazy mess, you see, grace, jack, and myself were the coordinators, grace was supposed to be here an hour ago, and next thing I know, she comes running up, out of breath, with jerry. "I'm so, so, sooooo, sorry Kim! We were late because dumb ass couldn't decide on ANYTHING!" she exclaims, smacking the back of her lovely boyfriends head, this is how love works, I think. "It's alright grace…" I say, then I look over at all the nutty kids who look like they have had way too much caffeine, I whistle, loudly, but no one even looks at me. "Grace! Give me a lift!" I say, taking my heels off and walking up to her, and puts her hands crossed, cheerleading style, I stepped on her hands and my hands on her shoulders "5… 6… 7… 8…" and she lifted, I spun around so I was facing the same was as grace, towards the stage, I put my hands around my mouth as I shouted "yo!" I am around jerry WAY too much, but hey everyone looked at me "shut the fuck up and listens to me for a god damned minute!" then they got quiet "okay! All music students go over there! Valedictorians or students with speeches of any kind go over there, and sports teams go over there!" I point to the different directions as I yell, but no one moves yet, "ok, now where the hell are the teachers?!" and it's silent, so I just shrug "ok, ya'll got 3 seconds to get to your designated areas before I pop a cap in your ass now move! 1… 2… 3!" I say, and everybody runs, literally, to their areas, "thank you!" I mumble, as I dismount from graces hands, I march inside alongside grace to the office to figure out where the hell the teachers are at. "Jack, bozo, get everything out here situated…!" I yell to them, "you know, I would tell you not to talk about my boyfriend like that, but I'd have to agree," grace remarks, as we both laugh,
Time skip- beginning of graduation after everything is organized
We FINALLY got everything situated, turns out, the teacher were being lazy asses and drinking coffee in the lunch lounge, but right now we are all helping each other zip up and fix our cap and gowns. Jack's been acting really strange today, but maybe he's just nervous. We all get our cap and gowns on as we hear a voice come from the stage "welcome! Friends, family, and relatives, to the 2013-2014 senior graduation! Right now, we would like to welcome all of our graduating seniors, to take their proper seat on the stage" Mrs. Gillespie said, and we all walked on stage, huge smiles on our face, we take our seat, as she begins to speak again, "alright, thank you students, for coming out in an orderly fashion, now, we will begin with diplomas going from A-Z" Mrs. Gillespie said, "ok, Anne Andrew" hands out diploma "Cody anchors" hands diploma "jack brewer. Graduating to the Seaford academy of fine arts" jack stands up, goes to Mrs. Gillespie, shakes her hands, takes his diploma, but when I thought he was coming back, she whispers something in his ear, he smiles and nods and I hear her say "congratulations son." Then he returns to his seat, I give him a questioningly look but he just gives me a gorgeous cheeky grin, which makes me smile, "grace brewer. Graduating to the Seaford academy of fine arts" and grace gets up and does the same as jack, minus the whispering. "Kim Crawford who is also graduating to the Seaford academy of fine arts" I smile, get up, walk to Mrs. Gillespie, she her hand, take the diploma "congratulations sweetheart" she says, "Thank you!" I reply sweetly, returning to my seat.
Many students later.
"jerry Martinez" Mrs. Gillespie calls him up, and I immediately think 'oh gosh, what is he going to do', he walks up, and shakes her hands like all the others, but then he is handed his diploma, which I have no clue how he got, and he gratefully takes it and holding it In the air "whooo!" he yells, which causes everyone to laugh, including myself.
A LOT MORE STUDENTS LATER!
"alright, everyone, please give all of our graduating students a round of applause, students please stand and take a bow," Mrs. Gillespie asks, so we all stand, little did everyone know, we had a plan, we all look at each, take off our caps, and throw them to the crowd, grab each other's hands, and bow, and as we- or I? Go to walk off all the students form around in a semi-circle around me, they are all smiling "wha?-"I start, but then I turn around, jack is on one knee, holding a small, red velvet box in his hand, I immediately throw my hands to my mouth as tears run to my eyes, threatening to pour, "Kimberly Crawford, you have been the best 6 years of my life, even when we weren't together, and we always fought, you were always a part of my life, and that was always good enough for me, I remember you'd always tease me, by being with other guys, little did you know how much it made my heart break, so will you, Kim Crawford, marry me, when you are ready?" he asks, opening the small box, revealing a 24k diamond and silver ring, tears in his eyes, and all I can do is nod, I do actually manage to stutter "y-yes, absolutely y-yes j-jack!" I smile, finally letting the tears of joy out, he stands up, and walks to me, he gently pry's my hands off my mouth one by one, he slips the beautiful engagement ring onto my ring finger and we both smile, holding each other's hands, I finally manage to get out of my stage of shock and speak, "you know, I have a secret of my own too, brewer" I say, smiling. "Oh yeah? What's that kimmy?" he asks, sweetly, I've been meaning to tell him this for the past week, always worried about what he'd say but I know now is the perfect time… "I'm pregnant" I manage out, smiling, and I think his smile just got bigger, if that's even possible, as the audience cooed in awe. He then gently pushed his lips onto mine with a light kiss, "I will always love you Kim, and now I will love this baby the exact same as I love you kimmy" he says, "I love you too jack"
