A hotel in Boston

Today was the day you were going to be graduating from Harvard. Were you nervous? Yes. Were you going to be seeing your parents for the first time in eight months? Yup.

You got up early that day and showered. "Hey what are you doing up so early?" Ben asked while walking towards you. You were waitng for a response on your job application for The New York Times. "Well I'm graduating today so I wanted to get ready early and now I'm waiting for a response from the times. Oh and now my computers just mocking me." you said while closing your laptop.

"You'll get in. I know you will and even if you don't there are hundreds of newspapers that would love to have you working for them." Ben said while sitting down next to you on the couch. (we love a supportive boyfriend) You leaned your head on his shoulder and said "Yeah I guess so."

He kissed your cheek. "Okay so breakfast?" he said. You smiled and said "Yeah and maybe while you're cooking my laptop will come up with more ways to mock me." while opening your laptop again. Ben chuckled and then walked to the kitchen.

You refreshed your email a couple of times.

Dear Allison Lindsay, we are pleased to inform you...

"Oh my god. Oh my god! Oh my god oh my god!" you said. "What? What is it? Are you okay?" Ben said, slightly panicked. You smiled and said "I got in!" "You got in!" he said with a big smile. He wrapped his arms around your waist and gently picked you up from off the ground. You giggled and wrapped your arms around him. "I knew you would get in!" he said while letting you down. You kissed him and said "I still can't believe I got in!"

He kissed your head and said "I'm so proud of you babe." "Thank you." you said with probably the biggest smile on your face. He kissed your head and then walked back to the kitchen. "I'm gonna call Kara really quick but I'll be back." you said while getting your phone.

"Okay sweetie." he said. You smiled and then walked into the bedroom.

Ally: Hey Kara I have big news!

Kara: Hey hon what's the big news?

Ally: I got a job at the New York Times!

Kara: Oh my god Ally that's amazing!

AllY: Ah I know! I'm so excited. I start in two weeks!

Kara: Ah I'm so happy for you! I'll see you at the ceremony.

Ally: Okay see you there!

You ended the call and then walked back into the kitchen. "What'd she say?" Ben asked while setting a plate of french toast down for you. "She said that she was really happy for me and that she'll see us at the ceremony." you said, still smiling. Ben smiled and sat with you "I'm really proud of you baby." he said. You smiled and said "Thanks babe."
