AN: This is episode 7 and 8 of season 2 together.

Reese's POV:

"You said you wanted to do this. Now do it." I tell Cassie as me, her and Maddy were sitting in the living room, me in between them so no fighting happens.

"I'm scared." She whimpers out while hyperventilating and Maddy just blankly stares at her.

"Well you gotta suck it up and do what you need to." I said with a shrug and I turn to Maddy. "Call me if you feel like your about to punch her." I whisper in her ear and she lets out a hum.

"No promises." Maddy says while giving me a smile and I chuckle. I kiss her lips and she kisses me back. We pull away shortly after and I stand up and walk out of the living room, leaving them there to talk.

Maddy's POV:

It's silent for about 5 minutes after Reese leaves. It's just me staring at Cassie with a blank look and Cassie looking everywhere but in my eyes.

"I'm so sorry." Cassie finally blurted out and I blink at her. "I'm so sorry Maddy, I'm sorry for fucking Nate, I'm sorry for not telling you. I'm sorry for being a horrible best friend. I'm just so sorry!" Cassie beings to cry and I let out a sigh as I finally show some emotion.

"Why? Why did you do that to me?" I ask genuinely wanting to know because this actually hurts. "You know he choked me, you know how much pain Nate has put me through. But you still did that. I thought our friendship was bigger than that. How did y'all even end up doing that? Why did you get with him?" I asked her as I feel some tears leave my eyes and I quickly wipe them away.

Cassie let's out a shaky breath before responding "when I was headed to the New Years party after I left Lexi's car, I went to the store and bought doughnuts. Nate then showed up at the store and asked me how I was." Cassie begins to tell me the story of what happened and I listen closely.

"We exchanged a few words and I left the store. He followed me outside and kept telling me how pretty I was. I had broken up with McKay a few weeks prior and was kinda sad about that. Nate just kept giving me attention and kind words and I'm so used to being treated by shut by guys other than McKay that I just fed into it." Cassie continues and I realize that Nate manipulated her.

"Then he offered to give me a ride, and I stupidly accepted. We drove to the party and had sex in the bathroom. When I heard you and Reese bang on the bathroom door, I was scared shitless. As I was doing it with him, I felt bad but continued because I liked how he kept saying sweet things to me." Cassie finished and I shake my head as I rub my temples and sigh.

"I'm so fucking sorry Maddy. I'm sorry for doing this to you. I traded our friendship for a guy who is nothing but a piece of shit. I regret everything I did." Cassie states and she actually sounds genuine and I can tell because I can hear it in her voice.

"Cassie." I finally speak as I take a deep breath in and continue. "I still don't forgive you. I appreciate the apology but I can't forgive you. You broke my trust and you know how much I value, trust, loyalty and honesty. I understand that Nate was getting in your head but I still don't forgive you because you know how much pain and hell he's put me through." I tell her while doing hand gestures to help get my point across.

I feel myself getting angry again so I take a few deep breaths in. Tears fall down my face and I wipe them away.

"I can't forgive you. Maybe sometime in the future but not now. I need a lot of time." I tell her as I wipe more tears that fell down my face and she nods her head lightly.

"I understand. Your totally right. I'm just really sorry." Cassie said while wiping her tears away and she exits the living room. Just then Reese comes downstairs and sits next to me.

"So, how'd it go? Cassie just past by me wiping her tears away." Reese asked me as she puts a hand over my shoulder and I look at her with tears in my eyes. "Oh love." She said with a sigh as she hugged me and brought me into her chest. I cuddle into her and let out a sigh.

"Can we not talk about it yet? I just want to cuddle with you." I ask her while sniffling and I wipe my eyes

"Okay, that's fine. Wanna take a nap?" She asked me and she knows how much I love naps which is why she asked. Naps are literally amazing.

"Yea, definitely." I reply and I kiss her chest. "I love you a lot baby." I tell her as I close my eyes and Reese lays back on the couch, causing me to lay down on top of her. She grabs a blanket that was on the couch and covers the both of us.

"I love you this much." Reese said and I open my eyes and look up at her and see she had her arms open really wide.

I giggle at how cute she's being and she laughs as well and wraps her arms around my back. I smile and close my eyes again as I cuddle further into her. I lay my hands on Reese's chest as I let sleep take over me.

Reese's Outfit:

Reese's POV:

It was the start of Lexi's play. Everyone was getting settled in their seats. I sat next to Maddy and Rue and Kat was on the other side of Rue. Fez and Ash were sitting behind us. Fez got all dressed up for this play and even gave Lexi flowers. He is so in love.

"I'm actually excited for this play." I whisper to Maddy and she nods and hums.

"Mmm me too. I know it's gonna be good." She whispered back to me and the first set comes out on stage. It looked like Rues room.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Rues part of the play was very realistic to something that happened when went to her dads funeral. Lexi spoke to Rue in her room. I don't know I feel like this is too personal to add into a play.

There was like a blank screen and a stool in front of it. It was like something you'd take school pictures in front of.

"There were 6 of us." Lexi starts off in a voiceover as she sits on the stool and smiles for a picture. "There was me, Grace." She stated and some camera guy takes a picture of her. The song love will keep up together played in the background.

"My twin sisters, Hallie..." Lexi continues and some girl who looked like Cassie came out next and sat on the stool to take pictures. She looked like Cassie but just with curly hair. "And Avery..." Someone who looked like me comes out of the stage and takes pictures on the stool and I grin and clap.

"Their best friend and Avery's girlfriend, Marta..." Lexi announced and a girl who looks like Maddy comes out and takes pictures.

"She's literally almost like a mini me." Maddy says in confusion and a little surprise. She didn't know she was in Lexi's play but I did so I'm not confused. But I thought Lexi was just featuring me and Rue. I didn't know she was making a play about all of us.

"Marta's best friend Luna." Lexi says and Kat gasps as she sees a girl who looks like her come out and take pictures. The girl also had two tears running down her cheeks.

"And my best friend Jade." Lexi states the last name and the girl looks really similar to Rue. As you can tell, this play was about us.

"And this is life." Lexi states as she and her crew bring out letters that spelled "Our Life."

"Not everyone's life... but Our Life!" Lexi yelled while popping her head through the O with a smile. Everyone is silent for a few seconds for I decide to start clapping, making everyone follow along.

"Wait, is this fucking play about us?" She asked me with a little anger in her voice and I nod my head.

"Yeah, Lexi told me a few months ago I was in her play." I state with a sigh and I shake my head because I thought me and Rue were just featured on it. Lexi brings out another set and it looks like a mix of me, Cassie, her bedrooms all together. My actor and Cassie's actor for the play come out and do their scene with Lexi.

"Hey that looks like my fucking bedroom. It's fucking sick." I said with a laugh and I lightly clap.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

During the scene, a guy who was dressed like my mom came out and my mom starting laughing and cheering loudly. I can tell she was extremely proud of Lexi.

In this scene, Lexi made me an extremely sarcastic but sweet person and I don't think I fit the sarcastic qualities but okay.

"Hey Avery, do you think if I wrote a play, it would do well?" Lexi asked my character onstage and my character looks up at her while squinting her eyes.

"Well I'd have to see it to know if it did well." My character said sarcastically and everyone bursted out laughing. I don't think I'd say that but it's still funny. I look to my left and see Maddy wasn't as mad and loosened up a bit and was laughing too.

She made Cassie extremely accurate though. Acting bratty and like the world revolves around her. She killed my moms character though, especially with the wine in hand. I look back and see Cassie looks annoyed.

Everyone in the audience cheered for Lexi as she changed scenes and into a red dress and red lipstick.
———————————————————
Maddy's POV:

In this next scene, the people who played Kat and I were talking by the lockers. It was a set by the school. Just then the people who play Cassie and some guy who plays Nate walks through the doors hand in hand. They walk down the halls like they own it and my character laughs.

"She certainly looks the part." My character said with an eyeroll and she was referring to Cassie looking like a friendship ruiner. I shift uncomfortably in my seat because I didn't wanna talk about this so soon. Reese wraps her arm around my shoulder and I lay my head on her shoulder.
———————————————————
It's been about two hours since the play has started. Nothing really big has happened. Lexi was just retelling our lives in play form but she didn't go into deep personal details so I guess it's fine. She didn't go too deep into what happened with Cassie and I. And it was a really cool play.

"Can you guys stop making out every 5 seconds?" Lexi asked my character Marta and Reese's character Avery as they were currently making out and practically dry humping on the couch. They pull away and Avery's face was covered on red lipstick kiss prints and Marta's lipstick was smudged.

Everyone laughs at this, including Reese and I. It was really funny.
———————————————————
Alright babe. Time for me and the boys to workout." Ethan said to a girl that was portraying his girlfriend as the next set was a whole bunch of jocks working out in the weight room. Ethan was playing Nate in this play.

The name Lexi chose to replace Nate's name is Jake. I wouldn't have changed his name. I would've kept it the same.

The audience laughs and the whole scene just looks so gay. There are two guys at a pulley machine and one was riding the pulley back and forth while the other was pulling the pulley. These two other guys were biting their bottom lips and rubbing each others shoulders.

Reese and I burst out into fits of laughter as we lean on each other.

"Oh shit, I think this is to make fun of Nate." Reese whispers in my ear and I nod my head with a laugh as I remembered what Reese and I have up our sleeves for Nate.

We look back at Nate and see him look down. Good, his ass is embarrassed already.

"You guys are so gay." She says to Ethan and all the guys stop what their doing and look at her.

"Babe that's not funny." Ethan/Jake states with a stern voice and the audience bursts out laughing.

"Alright come on. Get outta here. Run along babe." Ethan mocks a jock and the girl walks away and Ethan smacks her ass and laughs.

"Man, Whoo!! Alright. Come on tiger!" Ethan yelled out which caused everyone to laugh again.

"Come on lets pump some iron boys!" Ethan yelled out with a roar and Holding Out for a Hero by Bonnie Tyler begins to play.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

When Ethan finished his performance that he put all his energy into, we all burst into fits of laughter and cheers. The scene was so gay.

Like the jocks were humping each other and moaning. There was also a part where Ethan grabbed a squirting bottle with water and pumped it on all the boys faces. That's so gay. Nate looked embarrassed and mad and you can tell this is what he tries to do in the locker room with his friends.

"Go Ethan!!" Reese yelled out as everyone continues to cheer and clap for him.

"Lexi, Ethan, your fucking G's!!" I scream out while clapping and cheering for them because this was the smartest idea for the play. He killed his performance and Lexi is a god for putting this in the play. Kat looked back at Nate and laughed.

"Yeah that's my little sister!!" Reese yelled out as she stands up and claps and then sits back down. I hear Suze just screaming with joy at the performance.

"Whoooo!! Lexi!!" Fez cheered from behind me while clapping loudly and smiling.

"Thank you all for coming! I worked really hard on this and I'm glad you loved it!" Lexi yelled out as she came onto the stage and we all erupt into cheers for her.

Reese's POV: (sorry for the sudden point of view change)

As we are cheering Lexi on, we hear the doors burst open, causing everyone to turn around and look at them. It was the cops. Our clapping and cheering comes to a sudden stop.

There were three of them walking down the aisle between the rows in the auditorium. I smirk at Maddy and she smirks at me.

They walk up to Nate and look down at him.

"Nate Jacobs, you are under arrest for choking Madeleine Perez at the fair last fall and for years of emotional and mental abuse on her. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law." An officer says while standing Nate up and putting his hands behind his back.

Oh yeah, we called the cops on Nate. A cop called Maddy and I this morning and told us they got enough evidence on Nate to arrest him. We told them to wait until Lexi's play was over to arrest him. We wanted to embarrass him as he got arrested. They agreed and we're standing outside the whole time, waiting for the play to end.

"What the fuck dude? I never choked Maddy nor abused her!!" Nate blurted pit and everyone watches this in shock expect for Maddy and I. We are laughing and smirking.

"He's fucking lying!" Maddy yelled out and I nod my head.

"Bullshit. Mr. Jacobs. Ms. Perez is right, your lying. We have 5 different witnesses who saw you do it and 4 different witnesses who seen you drag her to an alley. We have so much evidence on your ass." The same cop says in a stern voice as he handcuffs Nate and another cop grabs Nate's arm.

"I didn't do shit!!" Nate yelled out while trying to act innocent.

"Bullshit! Save it for the judge!" The second cop yelled out and the third one grabbed Nate's other arm. They walk towards where they came from while dragging Nate with them. Nate is still trying to yell and say he's innocent like they would buy that crap.

Maddy and I laugh and smile as they continue to drag him out. Nate looks back at us and glares harshly at us like he wanted to kill us. We both flip him off and he is pushed out of the doors by the cops. We aren't scared or his ass.

Everyone cheers as Nate was arrested. We all hate that bastard.

"They got enough evidence to arrest him!!" I cheer out as I give Maddy a big hug.

"Fuck yes, Im glad we called them this morning! That bastard is gone!" Maddy says while jumping up and down in her seat and I nod.

"Yesss! Now Nate is out of our lives for good!!" I say while cheering and we hug again with squeals. Maddy and I pull away from the hug and peck each other's lips. We cheer along with everyone else in this auditorium.

I'm glad his ass is done for. He's gone for good and Maddy and I are so happy about that.

Maddy's POV:

"Okay, no matter what the letter says, we promise to call each other everyday and communicate everyday." I tell Reese as I look at her and down to my college letter. We were in my room and we both just got our college letters back from UCLA. We are about to find out if we got in or not.

"I promise Maddy." Reese said with a light smile and some tears leave her eyes.

"Why you crying baby?" I asked her as I pull her into me and hug her. She lays her head on my chest. I see her set her letter on the bed.

"I wanna go to the same college as you. I don't wanna be away from you." She says while more tears leave her eyes and she clings onto my shirt and I feel my heart break.

"Oh baby, you won't be away from me. I'll always be near you even if we don't go to the same school. You'll still always see me. I love you baby. I hate being away from you." I tell her softly as I feel some tears leave my eyes. Seeing Reese cry makes me cry. I hate seeing her cry.

"I hate being away from you too. I love you Maddy." She tells me while sniffling and wiping her tears away.

"Let's open our letters okay?" I ask her as I stroke her head and she nods and lifts her head out of my chest.

She sniffles and grabs her letter again. I wrap my arm around her shoulder.

"Open them on three. One, two, three." I count down from three and Reese and I both open our letters. We unfold the paper and begin to read the letter. My eyes go wide as I read it.

"I got in!!" I scream at the same time as Reese and we look at each other with wide eyes.

"Oh my god we both got in!" Reese cheers in excitement as she tackles me for a hug. I giggle and hug her back tightly.

"Yea we did!! We are going to college together! We aren't gonna be apart Reese!" I yelled out with a smile and Reese squeals.

"I'm so happy and thankful." Reese holds me tighter and I smile at her.

"Me too. I can't bare being away from you." I admit to her as we pull away from the hug and I cup her face.

"Me too Maddy." Reese responds as she gently kisses my lips. We briefly pull away and look down at each other's lips.

We press our lips to each other's again and kiss with passion. gently stroke her face as we kiss on my bed. I slip my tongue into her mouth, causing a moan to leave it. We makeout and I sit on Reese's lap, straddling it. She lays down on the bed and I lean down and continue to kiss her. Reese placed her hands on my ass and gently rubs it.

After a few seconds, she squeezes it which makes me let out a moan. We continue to kiss as we feel heat in our bodies.

We slowly begin to take off slip off each other's pants without breaking the kiss. Since we had on button up shirts, we just unbutton each other's shirts and slip the shirt off of the others shoulders.

I gently grind into her which causes a moan to leave her lips. We carry on with making out and I think you can already tell what we did next and how the rest of our night went.
——————————————————
Ruby Bennett!" Mr. Coleman yelled out as he calls the names of the graduating class and we requested he do our friend group last so we can all get our diplomas at the same time. We were all sitting together.

I can't believe we actually graduated high school. I remember when me and Maddy first entered elementary school. We were both crying because we missed our moms and we comforted each other on our first day together with Cassie.

And now we are going to college. Does it ever drive you crazy, just how fast the night changes?

The rest of the graduating class already got there's. Rue runs up on stage and grabs her diploma. I was sitting next to Maddy and we all clapped and cheered for Rue. We all had on blue caps and gowns. We were graduating in our schools auditorium.

"Yeah, I graduated!! Now all I have to do is get clean and then my life is back on track!" Rue yelled out and we all awe from how excited she is to get clean. I really hope she does.

We had prom last week and it was magical. Maddy and I won prom Queen and Queen and we danced to 'Thinking Out Loud' by Ed Sheeran. The night was amazing and everything about it was awesome. Maddy had on this beautiful dark blue dress and I had on a dark blue suit to match. We were looking so sexy and beautiful.

It's been a month since Nate got arrested and since Lexi's play. As you can tell, his ass did not graduate. He's gonna be in jail for a long ass time and I am so happy about that. I cannot wait to never see him again!

It was hilarious seeing how embarrassed he was after Ethan made fun of him in Cassie's play and how embarrassed he was when everyone laughed at him while he got arrested.

We were pretty upset about how Lexi went about her play with some parts. Like she emband it was actually pretty funny.

"Ethan Daley!" He called Ethan and Ethan smiles and runs onstage. I clap and cheer for him and so does everyone else. Dude fucking killed his part embarrassing Nate onstage at Lexi's play.

"Katherine Hernandez!" Mr. Coleman called out to Kat and Kat smiles and goes on stage. We clap and cheer loudly for her.

"Cassandra Howard!" Mr. Coleman yells out and I see Maddy's bright smile drop a little bit she still claps for Cassie. I clap for her too as she goes on stage and gets her diploma. My mom cheered loudly for Cassie. She sounded a little drunk and she probably is.

"Reese Howard!" He called me next and I grin and squeal. Everyone roars with cheers and clapping for me

"That's my daughter!! Whooo!!" My mom yelled out while cheering and clapping and I smile at her.

"Yeah Reese!!" I hear Fez, Lexi and Ash cheer for me and I wave at them with smiles. Fez and Ash came to our graduation and I'm so glad they came because their my best friends.

I turn my head to Maddy.

"I'm so proud of you baby!" She cheers and squeals for me and I smile.

"Thank you love!" I say excitedly and I cups her cheeks I kiss her with passion and as I am about to slip my tongue into her mouth-

Reese, come up here and get this diploma before I rip it up and throw it in the trash." Mr Coleman tells me through gritted teeth and I gasp and pull away from Maddy. I know he's joking but still, he didn't have to scare me like that.

"I love you!" I tell her as I kiss her lips again.

"I love you too!" She says while kissing me again as well and she chuckles at how I reacted. I run onstage and take my diploma from him.

"Yeah!!" Maddy yells out as she blows a kiss to me and I catch it and hold it to my heart. Everyone continues to cheer and clap for me.

"There you are. I finally get to see you after 18 years." I say while taking to my diploma in a baby voice and everyone laughs. I walk off the stage and walk back to my seat.

"Madeleine Perez!" He yelled out Maddy's name and everyone cheers loudly.

"Whooo Maddy!!" Fez, Lexi and Ash once again cheer but this time for Maddy and she waves at them too.

"Yeah babe! I'm so proud of you!!" I tell her as I peck her lips and she smiles at me.

"Thank you baby." Maddy pecks my lips back and she turns around and walks onstage like a model. Dammit she is a model.

She accepts her diploma and smiles.

"Bad bitch out!" Is all she yells out before walking off the stage with her model walk and everyone screams with cheers for her.

"A fucking goddess!!" I scream out while clapping loudly and Maddy giggles and blushes. I blow Maddy a kiss that she grabs and holds to her chest. Maddy walks off the stage and back over to me.

"Jules Vaughn!" Mr. Coleman called our last friends name and we all cheers for her. Jules runs up onstage, accepts her diploma and smiles. We continue to cheer and clap for her as she gets off stage.

Once Jules get back to her seat, Mr. Coleman speaks up.

"I now present to you, the graduating class of 2019!!" He yelled into his mic and we all turn our tassels to the left side and throw our caps up in the air while cheering.

"Whoooo!!" We all yell out and cheer and we hear our families and teachers cheering for us as well. We finally graduated. The hats come crashing down on us with we just laugh because it doesn't hurt.

"We fucking graduated!!" I yelled to Maddy as I jump up and down excitedly.

"We did it Reese!! We fucking did it!! And we are going to college together!!" Maddy yelled out and I grin and nod. I give her a tight hug and hold her in my arms.

"I can't wait to go to college with you!!" I yell to her over the noise and I lightly pick her up off the ground, causing her to squeal.

"Me too!" She yells back to me with a smile and I put her down on the ground, cup her chin and bring her into a kiss. We begin to kiss passionately as we hear everyone around us screaming and cheering with joy. I slide my hands down to her waist and Maddy cups my cheeks with both hands.

We both slip our tongues into each other's mouths and gently caress each other's tongues. I put my hands on her hips and rub her hips. She gently caresses my cheek and we moan into the kiss.

We continue to makeout with an intense passion and fire and we bring each other closer if that's even possible.

We actually did it. I just graduated high school with my girl. I'm so fucking happy and I am ready for the next stage in our lives.

End of the chapters. Next chapter will be the epilogue and show their lives after graduation. To be honest, this isn't the best book I've written. I feel like Euphoria isn't my best writing. Maybe I should just stick to my other books. But I still enjoyed writing this book and I hope you guys liked it. Tell me in the comments what you think.❤️
