Chapter 13
The End… Maybe
~{</>}~Eden~{<\>}~
The past years were behind us, me and Jay were at our last year of high school. We had all decided that we would try and have as much fun as possible for being seniors, but I had a feeling they had done it to make me feel better and forget.
My relationship with Jay had become stronger, ignoring all those people who shunned us. Jay was cute, he was like a puppy, following me everywhere, although I think it was Kary who told him to do this, I think Jay would’ve done this either way.
Graduation started in only a few hours, and I still hadn’t changed. Even through a year of finally being able to put this all behind me, partially, I still hadn’t been able to get something out of my head.
Last year, after the first date and cat, the boy who came. Kyle.
He had somehow found out where I lived, and tried to apologize. I couldn’t tell if he was being truthful or trying to trick me again. And now, I can’t seem to get him out, it’s like I want to see him again.
But I don’t know if I want to kill him for being such a dick, or forgiving him, even if his actions sent me through a series of near death situations, but at least I came out, not in the way I figured, however.
I have to thank him for one thing though. If he had done none of that, me and Jay wouldn’t have the relationship we had attained now. We would have never met, or gained a bond like we currently had.
So, Kyle, even for being the dumb ass douche dick you are, you let me find the love of my life. Thanks you fuck.
“Eden you ready- GET READY YOU SLOW ASS SLUG!” Summer yelled, passing my room before running to grab Jay, who would probably force me into my clothes. Ugh.
~{/\[A Few Hours Later]/\}~
Almost all the kids had been called up, I guess being in one of the last homeroom classes really sucks, but at least you get honoured more because it’s the smartest class.
My name was coming up fast, the pattern of names you memorize through the entire year, it always happens, you know exactly who comes before and after you, maybe a few over too.
I sat there patiently, Summer and Jay and Cylvia and Kaelen were already called up, they waved at me rapidly, I ignored them. It would ruin my amazing mellow expression.
Then… My name wasn’t called up, I frowned. Then looked around rapidly, I thought…
I was stuck thinking this for the next few minutes before the crowd suddenly roared in applause and cheers. All of a sudden, there was a bright light on me, shining right at me.
“Eden! Go!” Summer screamed over the roar of people, I went up, both reluctantly and confused to know end.
I stood at the microphone, blinking at the very large crowd, who all just smiled at me, clapping and cheering.
I was so lost, WHAT AM I DOING HERE? I looked back at my teacher and gave her the, WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON, look.
She urged me to talk and I sighed, hesitantly and nervously taking the microphone. I moved my face near it and began to speak.
“Um, I have no idea what I’m doing here,” everyone laughed loudly, and I could feel my face blush red furiously.
“Eden, you were selected as the Star Student of your year,” my teacher whispered, and I thought, OOOOOOH.
All of a sudden there was a booming noise and everyone, again, laughed. Shit, I think talked.
“Um, okay. That was surprising. Anyways, as most of you know I’m Eden. I have no idea why you elected this person right here to be the greatest, when there are so many others out there who deserve it so much more,” I started, everyone quietly listened, fascinated by my oh-so-amazing speech.
“I’ve been through a lot, and many of you have seen on the news just how bad it had been, but if there is one person I could thank for helping me, it would be-”
There was a collective amount of inhalation, making me have to keep myself from laughing.
“It would be my new foster mom Kary,” I said finally. The crowd cheered for her, who just stood there like she had won the lottery, everyone thought I was going to pick Jay, didn’t they? Then they all came and grabbed me, hugging me, like the great family they were.
Kary and Oliver were first, crying their eyes out, well mostly Kary Oliver was standing there awkwardly. Cylvia and Kaelen kissed me on a cheek each, and laughed together, walking off after almost choking me to death with twin bear hugs. And lastly, Summer and Jay came to me. Summer, hugged me tightly, and we cried a bit together, the first friend I made here who trusted me, believed me, saved me.
After she left it was just me and Jay, everyone else was walking towards the cafeteria for the feast. Jay stood there, awkwardly staring at the ground as I crossed my arms, waiting for him to spit it out.
“Hurry up, I’m hungry,” I said, smiling at him as he blushed. He looked back at the ground and I sighed, grabbing his hand and pulling him towards me.
“Fine then,” I said before pushing my lips onto his. He wasn’t surprised, he knew how impatient I was. His lips were soft, moving with mine.
My heart felt light again, he had this weird effect on me, making me feel like I was high or something. Maybe he’s a drug… Naw that’s fucking weird.
He pulled back and looked me in the eyes. His eyes full of love and care. He hugged me, pulling me into his warm, loving embrace.
“Don’t ever let go,” I whispered, meaning it both physically and mentally. I felt him pick me up and carry me away, towards the lights and noise in the cafeteria.
At the entrance he let me down, I looked at him and he smiled, saying the words that brought a giant smile to my face, “I love you Eden, I want you to stay with me.”
He put his hand on my cheek, gently squeezing it, I smiled, “I won’t, as long as you never forget that.”
We walked into the cafeteria together, just like we would do, but into a university months later, a new school, a new story…
