''I can't believe this is it,'' Sugar sighs, putting another chair away.

It's the Sunday of graduation, and we are all putting up the glee equipment, like the chairs and microphones.

''I've only known you guys for a year,'' Lilly begins, smoothing out her dress, ''But I am going to miss you.''

''Well, next year, this will be your glee club,'' Harmony reminds them.

''So take really, really good care of it,'' Hunter continues.

So far, the only glee members next year will be Danny, Jason, Amber, Dottie, Lilly, Mike and James. Imogene left right after regionals. But I don't doubt they will find at least five more people to join.

''It feels so empty,'' Blair looks around, and Amber nods next to her.

''Like the end of an era,'' Amber agrees.

''But the start of an age,'' Courtney smirks.

''If we're done referencing Taylor Swift lyrics,'' Hunter rolls his eyes ,''We have something to tell you underclassmen.''

Blair, Courtney, Harmony, Sugar, Hunter and I stand in front of Amber, Dottie, Jason, Danny, Lilly, Mike and James, dressed in our caps and gowns.

''So, there's this thing in the yearbook,'' Harmony begins.

''We got to leave a message to an underclassmen. And each of us chose one of you,'' Courtney explains.

''So, Amber, mine is to you,'' Blair smiles ,''Basically, I just want you to never lose that optimistic side of you. I honestly don't know how I'd gotten through these past few years without you.''

We go down the line, each of us telling them something. Because of the odd number, I left both Mike and James some advice.

''We'd better go, guys,'' Harmony looks at us ,''We have to start lining up. And you guys better get on stage. We'll see you after the graduation.''

The six of us walk down the hall, Blair walking next to me.

''You nervous,'' she asks as I wrap an arm around her her shoulder.

''For walking across the stage? No. For having to deal with our parents and grandparents trying not to cry? Yes.''

''Well, we did it. Can't wait to hear your speech, Mr. Valedictorian,'' she teases.

I'm nervous, but I know I can do this.

Because if I didn't have anyone else, I have people in the audience who love me.

And that's enough to calm me down.

BPOV-

''And now,'' the principal begins ,''The presentation of diplomas.''

Finally.

''Blair Anderson,'' the principal announces, and I think the only person louder than me is my mom.

''Our salutatorian, Courtney Chavez.''

With a bright smile, she takes the diploma, returning to her seat and getting a high five from Rory.

''Hunter Clarington.''

He takes nervous steps, his usually confident personality faltering under the gaze as everyone else watches hi march across the stage. Soon, I see him be just as comfortable as he normally is on stage.

''Rory Hummel, our valedictorian.''

The pride in Burt, Carole, Santana and Kurt's voices is nearly emotional, and Rory gives a bright smile as he waves from stage.

''Sugar Motta,'' he announces, and I think she's surprised by how loudly we cheer for her.

She is going to be our daughter in two weeks. She's might as well get used to it.

''Harmony Williams, recipient of the NYADA voice scholarship.''

It's not much longer that the last diploma is given, and… that's it.

I'm the dad of two high school graduates. I've had even less time with Rory than I did with Blair, but it seems like I've only had five seconds with both of them.

And now they're moving out, going to college, getting married…

Ready to take on the real world, and Kurt and I will be behind them every step of the way.

''I'm so proud of you two,'' Carole pulls them both into a hug, pressing a kiss to each of their heads.

''You two did good. Now give your grandpa a hug,'' Burt grins, before letting my parents talk to them, then Cooper, Danielle, Dani and Santana.

''Come here,'' Kurt and I pull Rory and Blair into a hug respectively, careful not to squish Gracie.

''She started clapping when you were on stage,'' I tell Blair, and she grins brightly before taking Gracie ,''You know your mom would be so proud of you.''

''I would hope so,'' she gives a sad smile before kissing Grace's head.

''We're so proud of you,'' Kurt beams, wrapping an arm around Rory's shoulder ,''And we know you guys are going out with your friend. But tomorrow, we're spending the day together as a family. So go, have fun. And we'll see you at home.

Blair and Rory thank us, before heading over to the rest of the glee 's parents are letting them, and the glee kids from last year, use one of the private rooms. The Mottas thought it would be a nice gift since this is one of the last times they'll all be together for a while.

''Grace isn't allowed to grow up,'' I tell Kurt, holding the one year old as we walk back to the car with Carole and Burt.

''You have to let her grow up. Don't worry, I wish she could just stay this little,'' Kurt sighs, kissing her forehead as he puts her into her car seat.

''I think we did a good job,'' I smile, kissing him, ''With Blair and Rory, I mean. They're great kids.''

''We're biased,'' Kurt reminds me.

''Are you denying how right I am, though,'' I raise an eyebrow, leaning against the outside of the car before holding the door open for my husband.

''No. But I am going to ignore you for the rest of the night,'' Kurt teases, pressing his lips to mine before getting in the car.

I honestly don't know how I got so lucky. I've got an amazing family, great job, three beautiful kids, and a husband as mindblowingly loving as Kurt is. I don't deserve it, and I'm not stupid enough to think that I do.

I'm just smart enough to not lose such a good thing.

RyderPOV-

''I love you,'' Blair presses a kiss to my neck ,''But I thought we were going to watch a movie.''

I laugh,holding her closer to me, ''I honestly had every attention to. And then this happened. You're irresistible,'' I kiss the top of her head.

''You're just lucky your parents are spending the night at a hotel. Otherwise this never would have happened at all,'' she slides closer to me ,''I do mean that I love you, though.''

''I love you, too,'' I roll over so she's underneath me ,''Now, where we?''

''You were kissing your fiancee'. And she was enjoying it, because it was leading somewhere,'' she wraps her arms around me, ''After you made her feel like the most beautiful girl in the world.''

I move some hair from her face ,''And you should always feel pretty, Blair. You're beautiful.''

And I could honestly spend the rest of my life telling you that.

''I'm glad your parents liked the apartment we saw when you were on spring break. I can't believe we're moving in together at the end of the week,'' she beams, and I kiss her.

''I can't believe you actually agreed to marry me,'' I admit ,''I… look, I know you'll never fully be over Kate. Like I will never fully be over Jordan. But, Blair, you and I are meant to work. Even my parents have come around. We're gonna be fine, I promise. Now, you've had a big day, with graduation and everything, so take a nap. I'll take you home in an hour.''

With a nod, Blair snuggles closer and falls asleep.

She starts working at the Spotlight diner again next week, and I start working at the music store. Mr. Anderson-Hummel and my parents have agreed to help us with the rent, which is more than we could ask considering they thought we should wait a year.

And considering we still have to tell my parents that we are engaged, knowing they'll take it badly before finally giving us a chance to explain.

I don't care, though. Blair is worth taking every chance I possibly can. It won't always be easy, especially with the way she and I sometimes fight. But we're going to make this work. We've made it work, and we're going to get through everything together.

Because I've got a great girl. And I'm not going to mess things up like I have in the past.

Blair and I are gonna be just fine.
