Sitting on a chair on stage waiting to get my diploma wasn’t as frightening as I thought. Ok, nearly a hundred people were staring at us but it wasn’t as bad as I had imagined. Jessica, who was sat अगला to me, looked close to tears. I didn’t get what was so upsetting about graduating. We were leaving school for ever. No और classes. Well, for me I guess. I couldn’t go to college या विश्वविद्यालय until I turned eighteen and Edward the gentlemen decided to wait for me until he went to university. So far no one in the audience had tried to kill me which was good. Charlie and Mitchell were sitting in the third row as well as Jacob and Billy. Before I left them to get changed into my graduation लबादा, बागे Billy promised he would run over my assassin for me. Isn’t he sweet? I thought I saw Sam Uley sitting at the back but I couldn’t be sure and I saw some of Jacob’s friends. I could also see the Cullens clearly. Rosalie and Emmett had come back from college to see Edward graduate. I was safe, I was well protected. I looked at all the people in my साल and saw Edward watching me. I smiled at him and he grinned back. I saw Angela sitting at the end of the last row. It was so she could easily get to the podium to make her speech. I smiled at her because she looked so frightened. Being valedictorian was a great honour. It meant आप were one of the चोटी, शीर्ष ranking students and Angela deserved it.
“Now we have our valedictorian, Angela Weber,” Principal Greene clapped and the audience followed. Angela slowly stood up and walked over to the podium. She cleared her throat and faced the awaiting adults.
“Today is a turning point in our lives. We have spent the past four years wandering the halls of Forks High School and now it is time to हटाइए on. We have learned, laughed and gotten into trouble but we have also matured. We have gone from trouble making kids to responsible young people. But today isn’t only about looking at the past; it is also about looking at the future. Because today is also the beginning of something new...”
I listened to Angela’s speech and could hear the passion of her words. It was simply amazing to see Angela speak like this. She was usually so quiet and wouldn’t have dared speak aloud to so many people but here she was. I was proud of her.
When Angela finished I clapped and cheered with everyone else. Jessica didn’t look like she was going to cry, she was. She dabbed at her eyes with the end of her sleeves and smiled brightly at me.
“It all seems so real now,” she whispered to me. “It really is the end.”
“But also a beginning,” I reminded her. “Remember what Angela said.”
Jessica nodded and we turned our attention to Principal Greene who was beginning to call us out to receive our diploma. Ms Cope appeared on stage with the diplomas. The student would shake hands with Greene and Ms Cope would hand him the diploma to give to the student.
When Alice’s name was called she danced across the stage to Principal Greene. She smiled sweetly up at him, received her diploma and danced back to her seat. When Edward walked to Principal Greene he made this hideous yellow लबादा, बागे look sexy. Seriously, that boy could wear a bin bag and look good.
He winked at me on his way back and I blushed. He had heard my thoughts.
Soon Jessica’s name was called and then mine. तितलियों fluttering in my stomach I walked across the stage. I looked at Charlie who was beaming proudly and Jacob who was shouting my name.
“Go Kayla! Whoo!”
I laughed at them and stepped up in front of Principal Greene.
“Congratulations, Miss Swan,” he murmured shaking my hand.
“Thank you,” I replied, taking the diploma in my hand.
There was a deafening bang, like a door hitting the दीवार followed द्वारा a loud ‘shush!’
I looked towards the gymnasium door and my mouth fell open when I saw who was standing there.
“Alright, darlin’?” My mother shouted, her words slurred. “You दिखाना ‘em sweetheart! दिखाना ‘em what the English can do!”
I stood horrified on the stage. The diploma was still in Principal Greene’s hand who was also staring horrified at my mother. No one was looking at me on stage, they were too busy looking at Sarah Swan, who was falling over even though she wasn’t moving and Darren James who was trying to steady her.
“Sarah, get out,” he कहा in a loud whisper. It carried all the way to us because no one was making any noise. “You’re ruining her graduation.”
“I am not!” Sarah said, looking at Darren angrily. “You are! आप won’t let me stay!”
Charlie was stalking towards them now, his face turning red with anger.
“Charlie boy!” My mother shouted joyfully. “How’s it going? Long time no see huh?”
“I suggest आप leave, Sarah,” Charlie growled. “You’re embarrassing, Kayla.”
“I am not embarrassing Michaela,” Sarah stressed my full name. She always hated the name Kayla.
She turned to look at me.
“I’m not embarrassing you, aren’t I not, darlin’?”
I couldn’t speak.
“Sarah, you’re drunk,” Darren said. “I told आप not to come in when you’re like this. It’s the last place आप should be.”
“You have to leave, Sarah,” Charlie growled again. “You’re not allowed to be on school property intoxicated द्वारा any substance. Would आप like me to throw आप in the cells?”
“I am not drunk!” Sarah slurred before she fell over.
I groaned inwardly. I tugged the diploma from Principal Greene’s hand and hurried back to my seat. In my सीट I sunk down as far as I could. I could still hear my mother’s cockney accent ringing around the hall as Charlie and Darren tried to force her out.
“Is that your mom?” Jessica asked me. She was watching Charlie and Darren shoving my mother outside.
“Never met her in my life,” I answered.
“But she’s English,” Jess stated.
“If an America woman walked in here does that make her your mother?” I said, angrily.
Jess turned away quickly noticing my anger. I made a mental note to ask Alice if she had seen this coming.
Edward was still laughing even though I had hit him repeatedly.
“It isn’t funny!” I said, angrily. “It was horrifying and embarrassing!”
“It isn’t funny in the slightest,” Edward straightened his face but it wasn’t long before he was laughing again.
I glared at him.
“Sorry, sorry,” he chuckled. “I can’t help it.”
I didn’t see what was so funny. All I could picture was my mother making a complete arse of herself in front of my entire साल and their parents and the teachers.
We were still in the gymnasium. Parents and kids were talking to each other and celebrating. I should have been too if my dad wasn’t outside dealing with my moronic mother.
“Kayla, I am so sorry.”
Darren was walking towards me. His usually cool features were distorted द्वारा nervousness and he should be nervous. He knew I would get violent with him and not care. He was dressed in a suit and tie, something I hadn’t noticed before because of Sarah and her drunkenness.
“I am sorry,” Darren repeated. “I tried to stop her coming but she wouldn’t listen.”
“Did आप really?” I asked sarcastically.
“I may not दिखाना it a lot but I do somewhat care about you. I didn’t want your graduation ruined.”
“Aren’t आप so thoughtful.” I wasn’t fooled द्वारा that. He didn’t really care about me.
“It was half a glass of champagne to celebrate you.” Darren ignored my sarcasm. “I went to go put my suit on and when I came back the entire bottle was gone and Sarah was starting on a second.”
“A bottle of champagne wouldn’t have done this,” I said.
“She had three bottles before we left. I tried to get them off her but she bit me.” Darren pulled up his sleeve and two half crescent purple bite marks were on his forearm.
“Ouch,” I said.
“Yeah.” he shook his sleeve down. “I lifted her up and carried her back in the hotel but she refused to miss your graduation. I told her it wouldn’t be right turning up completely smashed but she wouldn’t listen.”
I sighed.
“Why didn’t आप tell me आप two were coming down?” I asked. “I thought she wasn’t coming. I was going to give her an angry phone call tonight.”
“It was supposed to a surprise, sweetheart.”
“I might have been और prepared if I had been warned of your arrival.”
Darren looked uncomfortable under my glare.
“She wants to talk to you,” he said, quickly. “Charlie’s दिया her three cups of coffee and she seems to have sobered up.”
I considered it. Could I risk talking to this woman in public? I was tempted to say no but she was my mum and she was going to apologise to me before I spoke to her.
“I’ll talk to her,” I said. “Just tell her I want an apology first.”
He nodded. “By the way, that dress is stunning on you.”
He smiled and turned to walk back out of the gymnasium. The first chance I had got I had taken off that ridiculous yellow robe. I now wore the satin silver dress Alice had picked and of course the सोना charm bracelet Edward bought me. Unfortunately I still had to hold the लबादा, बागे seeing as I didn’t have anywhere else to put it.
“I’m going to go speak to Carlisle and Esme,” Edward said. “Give आप some privacy with your mother.”
He kissed me and I didn’t want him to leave me. I went as far as to लपेटें one leg around him but he was free from my grasp in one fluid motion. He winked at me and I watched his bronze hair through the crowd of students and parents. I held the लबादा, बागे to my chest trying to replace Edward with it.
Edward’s bronze hair was the last thing I saw before blackness.
“Now we have our valedictorian, Angela Weber,” Principal Greene clapped and the audience followed. Angela slowly stood up and walked over to the podium. She cleared her throat and faced the awaiting adults.
