Sugawara is in his senior year of high school, and you're his junior. Ever since the two of you started dating, you've tried not to worry about the fact that this will be the first and last year you'll see each other at school every day, spend your lunch breaks chatting in the hallways like two lovebirds, and just be teenagers living life. Whenever you bring up the subject, he tries to reassure you, saying things like, "There's still a long way to go until graduation. Don't think about it." "Let's enjoy our time together, honey."
You tried not to worry so much, just focusing on spending time with him, going to his volleyball practices, anything. But even if you wanted to, you couldn't stop time. The months went by, and before you knew it, graduation had arrived, the last moment of your high school love with you. He was going to college. A large stage had been set up for the graduation. A platform in the middle of the stage so they could announce the names of the students. A large table with chairs for all the teachers so they could congratulate their students.
All the third-year students gathered in the gym, sitting in the chairs reserved for them. All the students sat there, those who were not graduating sat further back. You were with the students sitting in the back, feeling the whole mix of emotions inside your chest. Many third-year students had not arrived yet. Your eyes scanned the place, looking for your Suga. You finally saw him entering the gym accompanied by his friends, Daichi, Kiyoko, and Asahi.
His eyes locked with yours, and you saw a soft smile spread across his face. You stood up and hurried over to him. He opened his arms to wrap you in a warm hug. You buried your face in his chest, feeling tears form in your eyes for so many reasons you couldn't even put into words. He hugged you affectionately, stroking your hair and pressing a kiss to your forehead, resting his chin on the top of your head.
"Oh dear... I know, I know. It's okay."
