http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9K4TYE3jDz4   The boys decided to tag along with you to pick up the diplomas. It wasn’t hard to miss the look of yearning on your face when the seven of you arrived at SM Academy. The whole school was decorated with beautiful, twinkling ornaments in preparation for the big events happening this year. There were already tents and stages set up for the one year celebration event.    You held in a melancholy sigh and tried not to look too wistful. However, it didn’t fool the boys one bit. They glanced at each other and frowned knowing how much this event meant to you.    If only there was something they could do for you...    One thing that is certain though, they definitely weren’t planning on going to graduation OR Carpe Educare; the boys thought it was pointless to attend graduation and go to Carpe Educare if their sole purpose, you, weren’t going. You tried urging them to go since it was a once in a lifetime event, but of course, it didn’t work. If you weren’t there, there was absolutely no reason for them to be there either.    Persuasion was your worst trait. After 10 minutes of trying to convince them, you gave up. You named the list of fun and games off the top of your head that would be held at Carpe Educare, however, instead of looking interested, they looked bored and hungry. Even Sehun and Xiumin who was chirping along with you a few weeks ago were quiet.    You sighed and shook your head. “If I wasn’t banned, I’d go crazy at the event. Hmph.” You crossed your arms over your chest. Luhan smiled and held the office door open like a gentlemen for you. You thanked him with a small smile as you walked through it with the rest of the boys.      The smell of freshly printed paper and donuts welcomed you in. You walked over to the counter to see a familiar face that you’ve grown so used to seeing. The secretary looked up and smiled at you. “Well look who we have here. I haven’t seen you in awhile.”    You casually planted your elbows on the cool marble surface and crossed one leg over the other. You smirked. “It has been awhile hasn’t it? I'm going to definitely miss you babysitting me and Y— yeah.”    She didn’t catch the tremble in your voice. Instead, her smile widened and she held out a finger for you to hold on. She was searching around her desk, already knowing what to hand over to you.   “While you look for mine... my friends here came to pick up their diplomas as well. Can you search for theirs as well, pleaseee?” You clasped your hands together and sweetly beamed at her.   The secretary looked up at you, then to the six boys hovering protectively behind you and then her eyes landed back in yours. She gave you an exasperated look. You blinked your eyes innocently, making her lips twitch into a smile. “Alright, just tell me what their names are.”   You clapped in glee and urged the boys to come up and introduce themselves to her. While you seven waited for her to find the rest of the diploma envelopes, you sent a text to Yoonjung. Your mind and body was ready for whatever Yoonjung had to throw at you. You had a week to toughen yourself up. You promised yourself that this time... you weren’t going to cry.    You were strong and no one was going to bring you down. Best friend or not, you still had priorities in your life. If she didn’t appreciate the things you did for her, then it wasn’t your fault. It was hers.    “Here you all are, Kim Jongin, Oh Sehun, Wu Kris, Lu Han, Park Chanyeol and Kim Minseok.” She handed the diplomas to each one of the boys separately. Yours eyes widened slightly. This was your first time hearing all of their real names. You glanced at Kai. ‘Your real name is Kim Jongin?! And you didn’t tell me?!’    Kai gave you a mysterious smirk and shrugged nonchalantly. Your heart skipped a beat for a fraction of a second then you scowled. You heard her call your name, and this time the reason your heart skipped a beat wasn’t because of Kai, but because of the big envelope that had your diploma tucked securely inside of it. You extended your hand out for it shakily and she laid the envelope gently in your clammy palms.    “Congratulations, you’re officially finished with High school.” The secretary told you.   Smiling from ear to ear, you beamed and bowed repeatedly. “Thank you, thank you! You are the best employee in this school, seriously. Thank you for everything!” You bowed repeatedly.    She blushed at your kind comment and pushed her reading glasses. “Visit as much as you can, okay? Don’t be a stranger.”    You nodded fervently. “Thank you!”    “Congratulations, all of you. Good luck with your future.” She waved. The boys bowed in respect and you nodded gleefully. You waved goodbye to her. She was going to be the only one, out of everyone in the whole school, that you were going to miss.    The moment you stepped out of the office, you twirled around and kissed your envelope. “I’M DONE HIGH SCHOOL ES!” The boys watched you in amusement, fond smiles on all their faces.   You didn’t even care if the Principal came out and yelled at you for disrupting silent hallways. He could do anything and you wouldn’t care. You were done with this hell-hole.    You were so blissfully happy for obtaining your diploma that you
