CHAPTER TWELVE

(Trevor POV)

(Graduation)

"Congratulations class, Welcome to your future." And then the caps went flying.

"Trevor?" I heard someone call.

"Raven, congratulations!" she flung herself into me, she was crying, that was the first time she had touched me in weeks.

"Wow, hold it there." a mans voice cam from behind us, Mr. Madison began snapping pictures.

"Raven!" Becky yelled, running up to her and hugging her tightly, she was crying too.

"Where's Matt?" I asked, as someone smacked my back. Matt was standing there trying to hold his composure.

"Awe, man." I said hugging him roughly. Matt was my best friend, I would really miss him. Next was the parents, all teary eyed and hugging.

"Congratulations, Trevor" my dad said shaking my hand.

"You did good, Trevor," Mr. Madison hugged me tightly, Raven had told me that he had been a hippie and when he smiled you could see it in his face. Then the moms descended, Mrs. Madison, My mother, And Matt's. Last was Becky.

"I didn't like you when I meet you, Trevor Mitchell. But what you have done for Matt and for Raven, made me change my mind. I would really like to be your friend." Becky was totally composed as she spoke to me, Matt's seriousness was rubbing off on her. I hugged her tightly, and she hugged me back.

"Hey now that belongs to me," Raven said smiling. I let go of Becky and opened my arms, Raven ran into Becky, squeezing her tightly. Matt and I both chuckled.
