"Say cheese!"
"Cheese!"
The camera flashed on Cosette and her friends as they took photos together. Maxen graduated with the highest honor and thus, the medals dangling around his neck. Meanwhile, Cosette graduated as the second, Luke as third, and Fay as fifth.
"Congratulations!" Cosette faced the girls, hugging them (Sarah, Amie, and Fay) after taking a photo together. The three hugged her back, and when they let each other go, they held hands as they formed a circle.
"So, what are your plans?" asked Cosette, glossing her eyes over theirs.
"My mom invited all our relatives for lunch." Fay grinned, taking the medal around her neck. "I'm so really to gloat about this."
"I'm going to have a lunch date with my parents as well," said Amie. "It's just the three of us, but it'll be nice to go out with them since it's been a hell of a year for all of us."
