One Last Goodbye

[Sapphire Michaels]

Sapphire walked out of the Great Hall, Onyx’s hand tightly in hers. Or was it her hand tightly in his? He had taken her hand early and hadn’t let go off it. She couldn’t help but laugh at the way he was looking around the school, wide-eyed. “What are you even looking for?” She asked him, stopping to pull her hand from his and pull her hair back up in a ponytail to get it out of her face.

 

[Onyx Derouin]

Onyx had been nervous about coming to Sapphire's graduation today, and he still was, honestly. He sat close to his uncle through the ceremony, looking over the faces on the stage. Had he really known all these people once? He recognized a few of them for odd reasons. There was Arc, Onyx waved excitedly at him. There was the captain that was a friend of Sapphire's, Jake. His Majesty. He looked cute. Onyx thought he remembered a few other people- the boy that gave the speech felt familiar, and Onyx was a little embarrassed looking at him. Had he seen Onyx cry? That sounded right. That was embarrassing,

Once the ceremony was over, and Sapphire had come over to them, he quickly caught her up in a hug. "Hi," He grinned, and before he knew it he was following her out of the hall, holding her hand tightly in his and looking around. He looked back to her as she asked a question. "I'm not looking for anything," he corrected easily. "I'm just looking at everything." He clarified.
