“Are you ready?” Mum screams from downstairs.
“Almost,” I scream back and clip my earrings.
I shudder in front of the mirror and force my breathing under control. My makeup is not as loud as that of prom but I look beautiful. I pat the graduation gown over my dress and tug the cap on my head.
Everything highschool comes to an end today.
Ben texts me. He’s already on his way to school with Josef, Asher and Maddie. My parents are driving me today, they insisted and I couldn’t say no. Ben will bring me back home so we can get my belongings. I am officially moving into our new house today.
The words roll off my tongue easily.
Our house. Benny and Gracie’s house. I will finally move in today. Today, the day of our graduation.
