"And now, the valedictorian of this years graduating class, Ms. Amber Lynn!" The MC announces and I pranced on stage happily.
I scanned the crowd, finally finding Carter cheering for me in the audience. Our eyes connected and I smiled, to which he responded by blowing a kiss in my direction.
I smiled more and looked behind me at Ash and Jan sitting behind me in their caps and gowns.

I am so happy to be graduating!"
The crowd cheered for that.
I laughed "I am so excited to move into this new stage in my life with my best friends-"

I chuckled and shook my head "Dad I'm a freshman."
He smiled up at me "I know, but I just can't wait! And plus they have the option to reserve seats so, hey, why not?!"
I started to tear up but continued onward.
"And despite any distance between us, my family."
I looked at the seat reserved for my mother.
"Why three seats?" I questioned, pointing to the little three he selected on the screen.
