~Y/N POV~

(EIGHTEEN YEARS OLD)

"Y/n get your ass up!!"

I groaned in my bed and pulled my pillow over my head to avoid his annoyingly loud voice. But I heard him stomp his way into my room and huff from beside my bed. Curse having joined rooms only separating us with two double doors.

"Get up, it's graduation day!"

"No Nathan, go away."

I swatted him away when he poked at my ass over my covers.

"Head up, you better not be naked. Gross." Nathan

My covers were then ripped from my body and I shot up throwing my pillow towards his face and then kicking him right in the chest as defence which resulted him in falling to the floor, groaning and holding onto his chest.

"Oh crap."

Mumbling to myself I jumped out of bed and came to his side, on my knees next to him.

"I'm sorry are you okay?"

"Yeah. I just forget how strong you can be sometimes. Oh god. I need more protein shakes." Nathan

I laughed at him and smacked the top of his head before standing back up to my feet.

"I don't think you need anymore. You're already built like a brick house, no more."

I laughed at him, and walked around the bed towards my chair that holds my clothes that I already picked out for the day and my graduation gown hanging up on the closet door.

"Im just trying to keep you with you." Nathan

I heard him getting up from behind.

"Yeah well I'm genetically made to be stronger than you average human. So no more muscles for you or you'll start looking like a round bump rock with veins and that wont be pretty for the ladies if you know what I mean."

I wiggled my brows at him over my shoulder but he just scoffed at me, brushing back his blonde hair and then tensing his arm muscles over his head.

"These bad boys would get any lady I desire thank you very much. They haven't disappointed me yet." Nathan

He kiss his left arm and then winked at me which made me cringe and turn back to my gown. That made him laugh anyway.

"Any who, get ready we have to leave early remember? Aunt Rose and Uncle Vernon are waiting. Don't forget my mom and step father will be there too, so get your ass moving." Nathan

He threw a blanket at my back that fell to my feet and I just waved him off, slipping into a mind of my own as I listened to him leave.

It's graduation.

An actual high school graduation I use to dream of having while growing up. But there's that part of my dream missing. The boys but there's the second part which is the girls too. My family.

They're not here though but there's not a day that doesn't go by that I don't think of them. I miss all of them, even Taehyung surprisingly. I guess I just got use to his glares from afar.

My life has been bittersweet the last three years.

I left my life and family behind but that wasn't my fault. I didn't want to go, I was knocked out and woke up in a strangers bed. Nathan's bedroom to be exact. He insisted that I stayed there in his room until we got use to each other and that boy never left me alone. I swear to god the amount of times I tried to get rid of that skinny boy, he wouldn't go. Like a leech with blood, he was stuck by my side and after a while he grew on me. Now he's like my little brother.

Nathan is one year younger than I am but he's smart enough to be in the year above with me so that was a plus when his aunt and uncle enrolled me into high school. I made friends, lots of them thanks to Nathan again. He's very popular and so that made me popular. Everyone knew me as his cousin and still do.

The first year was hard, very hard and I even developed these weird black veins around my ribcage. I don't know what they are but they just appeared a year after my escape I guess you can call it. They're not painful, just random markings I guess.

Then there's his aunt and uncle. Rose and Vernon.

They couldn't have children and were thinking of adopting just when the opportunity came in to have me in their lives thanks to Dr Sun contacting them discreetly. So they didn't hesitate to take me in and thankfully during that time Nathan actually lived with them since his mother was constantly moving around country with her husband, Nathan's step father because of his job. They're really nice too.

They're a great family and I'm grateful to be part of it. They gave me a home and a life with love. I love them too for everything they have done. But that doesn't fill the empty hole I have in my heart for those I have lost.

Vernon though owns his own gym that has a boxing ring in it. He likes to take me there three to four times a week to blow off some steam and I guess you can say I grew stronger over the years thanks to him. I think Dr Sun must of mentioned something about how my body needs constant movements and aggression to be shown through fighting. I'm good at it since I use all my bottled up anger with it. It's just these days it's hard to find someone willing to go up against you that I'm that good.

No matter how big Nathan appears to be I can still kick his ass to the floor as it was proven earlier.

I just can't believe the big day of graduation is here and I'm about to put on the burgundy coloured gown on and matching cap. Time flies huh?

"Y/N!! GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW!! DONT MAKE ME FUCKING WAIT WOMAN!!" Nathan

"COMING!!"

I screamed back at him but laughed when I heard his cackling which was short lived when my aunt started to shout from downstairs.

"KIM NATHAN, YOU WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE IN MY HOUSE YOU LITTLE TOAD!!" Aunt Rose

I laughed harder when I heard Nathan's sweet voice shout back at her.

"YES MA'AM! SORRY AUNT ROSIE!" Nathan

"THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT YOU WANNA BE JOHN CENA, NOW LEAVE THE GIRL ALONE AND COME DOWNSTAIRS!" Aunt Rose

Not a peep was heard back from him and only his quick steps out his room and into the hallway, passing by my door on the way out.

This was my life now and that's thanks to the seven boys back where I grew up. I just hope they're okay.
