Chapter Three : The College Graduation
Violet (VO) Graduation. It's something that you celebrate after all your hard-work in college. It marks the end of your school for yourself. And when you walk across the stage, and the second you toss your graduation cap into the air, you're done with college.

ARRINDALE UNIVERSITY ACADEMY
The next day, Me and the Olson Gang, along with the other college academy students are sitting in the auditorium with our families and best friends.
I slowly walks up to Aaron. He and I exchange looks at each other.
"Hey, Aaron." I greeted him.
"Hey, Violet." Aaron greeted back at me.
"Aaron? I know we spent some time together, with Jonny's and Monica's temporarily marriage and . . ." I trailed off.
But Aaron small smiles at me, knowing what I was trying to say. "Violet? It's okay. I know you. Just like the guys knows you. So, we're good."
Aaron and I exchange small smiles at each other and we fist bump each other.
*~*~*
After-awhile, the college academy students are sitting in our auditorium chairs with our diploma certificates.
"And now, Mr. Jonathan Zuko has something to say." Dean Tiffany Bennett said into the podium.
Everyone applauds as Jonny Zuko steps up to the podium, wearing his graduation cap and gown.
"Hi, everyone. I'm Jonny Zuko. And it's very good to be here with my college graduation class." Jonny said and looks at Me conflicted. "Monica Russo? Can you join me on the stage, please?"
The college graduates looks at Monica Russo and she looks around at everyone as she gets up to her feet and slowly walks up onto the stage with Jonny.
Jonny and Monica exchange looks at each other.
"Jonny? What are you doing?" Monica asked him, bewildered.
"Making things right, I hope." Jonny said, and gets down on one knee, gently holding Monica's hand.
Sonya, Ava, Jessy, Carmen looks at Me as I look at Jonny and Monica.
"Monica Russo? Will you marry me? Again?" Jonny asked her, nervously.
Monica looks at Jonny, surprisingly. "Yeah, I'll marry you again."
Everyone applauds. Jonny gets up to his feet. He and Monica embraces in a kiss.
I look at Jonny and Monica, hurt, and I feel the tears swelled up inside of me. But I hold it back.
*~*~*
After our hat toss, I'm at my locker, cleaning it out with my backpack.
Jonny looks at me, inhales and exhales, and slowly walks up to me. "I know you're angry right now. But I didn't like how I ended things with Monica. She and I talked about it. Getting married. But this time, we're gonna do it right and correctly."
I look at Jonny, gently closing my locker. "I'm not angry Jonny. I'm just tired. I'm tired of being the person that you come to whenever you need a shoulder to lean on or someone to confide in."
"What are you saying?" Jonny asked me, becoming teary-eyed.
"I'm saying that I'm done with you, Jonny Zuko. I'm done waiting for you. I'm done with you going back and forth between Me and Monica, because you don't truly know who you wanna be with. I love you, J. Zuko. I will always love you. But I'm not gonna be your second choice." I tell him.
A tear rolls down Jonny's cheek as I said that to him.
"I sincerely wish you and Monica all of my best. I really do. And if, by some chance, I do date someone else, you can't say anything about it or get slightly jealous because you made your choice. So, goodbye, Jonny. Have a good marriage." I said to him, walking away with my backpack.
Sonya, Ava, Jessy and Carmen glances at Me and looks at Jonny, who looks at them, glumly.

JEN'S MILK-O-SHAKE MALT SHOP DINER
That late afternoon, Sonya, Ava, Jessy, Carmen and I are sitting in a booth table across from each other with our root beer floats.
"Are you gonna be okay, Violet?" Sonya asked me.
"Yeah, I'll be fine." I replied.
"Jonny had some nerve, proposing to Monica while he was dating you." Ava said.
"It's alright, Ava. I'm done with Jonny Zuko. He and I have broken up, he's marrying Monica again. And I'm single." I said to Ava.
"At least, you have your special agent." Jessy said to me.
"Yeah, I do. And by the way, Cherry is having a graduation party at her house." I said.

JENZO HOME
[Song: I Love It (I Don't Care) (clean version) - Icona Pop]
That evening at Cherry Jenzo's graduation party, everyone is enjoying themselves with kegs of ale, margaritas, pizzas, Jell-O-Shots, rum pong, (it's like beer pong, but it's with rum).
In the living room, Aaron and I are playing rum pong with the Qwen Twins, Miguel and Michelle.
After scoring some points, Aaron and both gulps our plastic cup shots of rum and high fives each other.
And after scoring some points themselves, Miguel and Michelle both gulps their plastic cup shots of rum and high fives each other.
After-awhile, everyone's dancing together in the living room. Aaron and I exchange small smiles as we dance together. He playfully twirls me around and I playfully twirl him around.

HAYFIELD HOUSE
That night, in the living room, Aaron and I are sitting on the three seat sofa, eating bowls of French vanilla ice cream with spoons.
"Thanks for the ice cream." I thanked Aaron.
"You're welcome. You and I both drank gulps of rum, so, I thought ice cream would calm you down." Aaron said. "And I have to asks, how are you, really?"
"My ex-boyfriend is getting remarried to my best friend. So, I'm not really fine, but I will be." I said to Aaron.
Aaron and I exchange small reassuring smiles at each other.
*~*~*
OLSON HOME
That night, I'm sitting at my computer desk, playing a computer game.
A gentle knock is on my bedroom window. I look at my window. Jonny is there.
I pause my computer game and gets up, slowly walks over to my bedroom window and slides it up.
"What are you doing here, Jonny?" I asked him.
"I wanted to see you." Jonny replied, gently climbs through my window, gently sits down on my windowsill cushion, gently slides down my window close. "Hope you didn't mind."
"Even though, I'm done with you, doesn't mean I'm gonna cut ties with you." I said, slowly walks away from him and sits down on my ottoman.
Jonny slowly walks up to me and sits down beside me on my ottoman. "I wanted to tell you that Me and Monica have marriage agreement thing."
"Jonny? You didn't come here to talk about the marriage, so, why are you really here?" I asked him.
"I wanted to spend one last night with you before I remarry again." Jonny replied.
I gets up and slowly walks over to my vanity mirror with my hands on my hips. "So, this is why you came to me?"
"I don't wanna argue, okay? I just wanna be with you. Just for tonight." Jonny said to me.
I slowly walks back over to him and sits back down on my bed. I gently cups his face with my hands.
"Okay." I said.
Jonny and I kisses each other, passionately. We gently pulls away from the kiss. He gently pulls off his long sleeve shirt over his head, revealing his bare chest and tattoos. And I gently pulls off my pajama tee over my head, revealing my purple Natori feathers bra.
Jonny and I kisses each other as I gently cups his face with my hands, gently runs his fingers through his shaggy fluffy hair. He gently lays me down on my bed, embracing our passionate kiss, intimately.
*~*~*
After our passionate intimacy make love, Jonny, shirtless, wearing his boxer briefs, is asleep in my bed, with the lavender fluffy bedcover covering him.
And Me, I'm wearing my special agent shirt, along with my undies, sitting on my windowsill cushion.
My phone buzzes on my windowsill cushion. I picks it up and looks at it.
