Chapter 23: Graduation Day

3 Months Later

The Bratz girls held hands in the hallway of Stiles High School on a warm June afternoon. Finally, it was time for the Bratz to graduate. Yasmin and Cameron were friends again by that time as well. They promised that they'd remain in eachother's lives and possibly, give their relationship another try in the future. "Cam and Yas," said Koby. "Get together for a pic." "Okay." Cameron said. He put his arm around Yasmin's shoulders and she put his arm around her waist. Cameron hadn't put his arm around Yasmin like that for a while, and to him, it felt good. Koby snapped the picture with his digital camera, then said, "Perfect, thanks." "Okay." Yasmin said as they let go. "Hey Yas," Cameron said. "One more hug." "Sure." Yasmin said. She hugged him tight and said, "Love you." "Love you too." Cameron said. Yasmin smiled and went over to her friends. "Dude," Dylan said to Cameron. "You and Yas ever gettin' back together?" "It would be nice in the future," Cameron answered. "You know, getting married, havin' some kids, you know what I mean." "Yeah," Dylan answered. "Cam, it was great going to school together all these years man." "Same here." Cameron said. They shook hands, then went over to their friends. "Are you guys ready to graduate?" Eitan asked. "I know I am," Jade answered. "I'm super super super excited." "Wow," Sasha said. "You've never been that excited." "I have so," Jade said. "Remember when I met Victoria Beckham, then when I met Kelly Rowland, and then, when I met-" "We get it Jade." Koby cut her off. "Sorry." Jade said. "Hi guys." said a voice. The girls and guys turned around and saw Hannah and Natalie. Rockwater's graduation had been the day before, so Natalie was already officially free. "Thanks for coming Natalie," Yasmin said giving her friend a hug. "If I loose touch with you, I'll never forget hanging out with you the two years that you've been in America." Natalie smiled and in a thick British accent, "Same here. Come to Liverpool every once in a while." "I'll try," Yasmin said as she turned to Hannah. "And Hannah, if I loose touch with you, stay out of trouble." "No promises on that." Hannah said with a smile. They hugged and Natalie said, "I see my mum so I'm going to sit. I'll be watching and if you see numerous camera flashes, it's me." They shared a laugh and Natalie left. The girls stood in the hallway until Principal Gonzales finally said, "Now, join me in welcoming, Stiles High School's Class of 2008." That was the cue. The doors on both sides on the gym opened and the seniors walked out. With their cap and gowns, they felt very powerful. The Bratz got their seats next to eachother so one could stop the other from possibly crying. They went through a number of speeches, including the Valedictory Address that was given by Hannah, who was valedictorian. After a little more of boring stuff, Principal Gonzales finally said, "We will now be handing out the diplomas to our students. She went through names until she finally got to Sasha's and said, "Sasha Elizabeth Johnson." Sasha got up and went up. After a few more names, Principal Gonzales said, "Yasmin Maria Montes." Yasmin went up on stage to get her stuff. More names went by until Principal Gonzales said, "Cloe Leanne Smith." Cloe did her thing. A few more names, then Principal Gonzales said, "Jade Alexandrea Suarez." Jade went on the stage. After finishing up, Principal Gonzales said, "Everyone here tonight, I present to you, Stiles High School's Class of 2008!" The students threw their caps up in the air. After the graduation was over, the girls went on outside with the boys. Cameron pulled Yasmin to the side and asked, "One more for old time's sake?" "A hug?" Yasmin asked. "No," Cameron answered. "One more kiss for old time's sake." "Okay." Yasmin said. They kissed eachother softly, and soon, were in a full make out session. "Looks like their not over eachother." Jade said. Yasmin heard that and parted. "It was for old time's sake." she said. "Whatever." Koby said. They all laughed and Cameron hugged Yasmin tight. "One day," he said in her ear. "One day, we'll be together again." "Love you." Yasmin said as she hugged him back. "I love you too." Cameron said. They let go and Jade asked, "Party tonight?" "Yeah." the gang agreed. They all shared a few hugs with eachother, and hung out outside before going home.

"I'm in the business of misery, let's take it from the top." blared the music from the speakers in the Gymnasium that night. It was the Post-Graduation party and the Bratz girls were there, dancing around with the boys, celebrating their last year together at Stiles High. "This is so awesome." Sasha said loud enough for the girls to hear. "I totally agree," Cloe said back as they all danced together. "Our Stiles High years were the best." "Yeah," Yasmin said. "But they had some lows, didn't they." "Yeah," Jade said. "But they made us stronger." The girls quickly shared a group hug, then continued to danced the night away.

That night, the girls talked on the phone, just remembering the good times they shared at Stiles High. Now, they had an all new project to prepare for. They had to prepare for the College Life.
