Hey, This is my last chapter... sobs But they're might be a sequel!!! . It depends on the amount of people who review.

Don't own anything.


"Bye Ma! See ya Dad!" I wave to my parents as I grab my schoolbag and head out. I walk down the road clad in my Freshman uniform and wave to anybody I happen to see.

"HAPPY 15th MAR'I!" Before I know it I'm engulfed in a group hug.

"Thanks guys, but you didn't have to scare me like that." April laughs at me and nods her head.

"Of course we did! What kind of friends would we be if we didn't scare the pants off ya?"

"Well..Considering this entire summer was full of scares you'd be good ones." Miki just shrugs her shoulders.

"Whatever. But, happy birthday anyways." I say a small thanks as she hands me the gifts from each of them. I open Miki's carefully only to show 39/Smooth I smile brightly at her as I open the one from Jazz and Wally. They gave me a beautiful pair of opal star-shaped stud earrings with a matching necklace. I put it on and again express my gratitude. April shoves her's in my hand and beams brightly I open it to reveal the picture of Brendon, Herself, and me when we we're kids. The tears prick the corners of my eyes as I examine the lost memory.

"Aw, C'mon Mar, don't be such a sissy." I turn towards the deep voice and look indignant.

"I'm not a sissy at all, I'm a girl who wears her heart on her sleeve." I state proudly.

"Exactly. You're a sissy." He crosses his arms across his chest. I sigh and shake my head as the bus comes. Some people just never change ya know?

"Hey pansy!" He calls from the back of the bus. "Sit next to me will ya?" I abide to his wishes and sit beside him. He wraps an arm around my shoulders and places a butterfly kiss on my cheek.

"Happy Birthday Mar." He whispers in my ear and then continues a talk about how tired he is and how I am mean for not kissing him full on in public. Time flies and before I know it it's time to get off the bus. Brendon grabs my school bag and throws it over his shoulder before offering his hand.

"C'mon princess. I need to get you to class." He mock bows and I hit him playfully in the arm before taking his hand in my own and walking into school.

"Hey Brendon, do you know what today is?" He shakes his head no and I release a small sigh. Of course he wouldn't. I kiss him lightly on the lips and head down the hallway quickly trying to hide my tears.


Lunch Time!

My own personal favroite time of day If I say so myself. I skip to my locker cherrily to retrieve my lunch money with a huge grin plastered on my face.

"Hey Locker Buddy! Happy birthday" My new friend Terrance Harper calls from the locker next to my own. Believe or not he's the kid of a hero AND a villain. It was a huge shock to me when I found out, but hey, love has no boundries right?

" 'Sup? Going to lunch too?" I ask as I try to remember my lock code... Let's see...21, 36,...13? BINGO! I do a small victory dance as my lock er, unlocks and I open my locker.

"Nah, I got theology next. But, I'll see ya in Algebra right?" I nod my head and wave good bye as he heads down the hall. I open my top lock and a small multi-colored box falls from it. I look at it clearly puzzled as I unwrap the paper neatly. A small velvet box is revealed beneath and I open it slowly and stifle a gasp. A platnuim ring shined brightly adorned with an opal and amethyst stone on each side of a heart-shaped diamond in the middle. I read the inscription on the inside of the ring and smile. He had our names in Tamaranean I look for the tag and it reads very simply:

As Promised.
