Mount Olympus [4]

Nic

I spot Jace and Rayah ahead before glancing at Jackie. Noticing how nervous she is, I squeeze her hand and kiss her temple for comfort.

Jackie

I see Rayah go up and clap, smiling slightly.

Nic

I flash a smile when Rayah goes up, Jace afterwards, and find I can't believe this is happening.

Jackie

Rayah winks at me when she finishes and give her a thumbs up, sighing.

Nic

I squeeze one of Jackie's hands, moving up, and watch with an almost-proud smile as Jace heads up.

Jackie

I clap when Jace goes up and smirk, glancing around.

Nic

I shake my head at Jackie and bite my lip when I figure out what the perfect exit would be. Smirking, I watch as Jace heads off and salutes me from across stage.

Jackie

It's my turn and I swallow before kissing Nic quickly and heading up.

Nic

I smile and watch Jackie, anticipating the moment I'll have to step up there.

Jackie

I take my dimploma and head off, eyes closed the whole time.

Nic

Once Jackie is off stage, they call my name. I take my diploma, swallow, and hesitate in front of the microphone, "I just want to say a few words real quickly. Four years, come and pass. Guarrantee I won't miss class. High school, come and kiss my a*s. Woo!"

I hold both fists in the air, showing off a specific finger, and bolt off stage before the teachers can come get me.

HAH!

Jackie

Bursting out laughing, I cover my mouth with my hands and shake my head at Nic once he comes down.

Spoiler

Classic Nic

Nic

I catch up with Jackie and the others, all smiles, and sigh, "You know what's even more awesome? They can't do anything to me about that 'cause I'm no longer a student."

Jackie

I smirk and kiss him when I can, "And they can't do anything about this either. Kissing in public rules can f*ck themselves."

Nic

I smile and kiss her back, chuckling.
