Jay's POV
The day was finally here. The day I graduate from high school and the day I get my mark and get full access to the league's resources.
It's a big responsibility but with the help of my team, I'll be able to take care of things just fine.
I woke up around 5:30 bcz I have to take care of security and stuff before we leave for school.
Keifer was sleeping peacefully while hugging me. I slowly slid away from his grip and went to freshen up first.
When I came out of the bathroom, keifer was still sleeping. He looked so handsome and at peace. I couldn't resist giving him a quick kiss on the lips and then went out of the room.
I had already told my team to get up early to prepare. They were all already in the hall with mine and there men.
" Good morning jay "
Jay: good morning everyone. Is everything set for the day.
Mason: already instructed everyone, security has been tightened at school, some will stay here to look after the base, everyone including ur family, godfather and keifer's brothers r coming to see the graduation so we made sure no one can go in and out without us knowing and the perimeter will be checked every thirty minutes.
Thyme: and ofc we all will be there sticking to u all at all times and making sure nothing goes wrong.
Tony: none of u r going to leave our sight especially u.
Jay: why me?
Tripp( sarcastically ): maybe bcz u r the one that always ends up getting stuck in the middle of chaos and gets hurt.
Kent( sarcastically ): or maybe bcz u r being targeted the most.
Choi( sarcastically ): or maybe bcz u r getting ur mark today and roy might try to pull some stupid stunt to stop u.
Tony( sarcastically ):I don't know, take ur pick jay.
Ren: they aren't wrong.
Jay: ok fine. No need to put it that way.
Alex: btw the snipers r also ready and have been specifically told not to show any mercy and a kill on sight order has been given for any of Roy's or any others goons.
Zia: it would be better if it's them themselves. Less work for us.
Jay: ok guys calm down. U all r turning back to the old u.
Lia: don't blame us, blame the situation and the enemies.
Robin: to beat a villian, we need to think and act like one. So that's exactly what we r doing.
Mj: and that's one of the things u don't get to argue about. We take this situation very seriously especially when we know for sure that ur and ur loved ones lives hang in the balance.
Kevin: but more specifically urs. We will do everything in our power to make u not use code red.
Jay: shhhhh, somebody could hear u. This is not the place for u to be talking about that. That's exactly why we talk about this in the mini base.
Kevin: ok geez sorry.
Ren: he's not wrong about it though. U know the risks and u r still considering it.
Jay: if it comes to that and yes, I will do it. I don't want to keep worrying or always be on alert for mine and my loved ones life. This has to end, no matter what the cost is.
Thyme( sighing ): always acting like the saviour. Always the martyr, aren't u.
Mj: yeah that's not happening, I'm keeping the dose ready for situation like that. U r not going to act that stupid again.
Choi: it's prohibited for a reason jay. We just can't risk ur life, not this time. We don't know what could happen if u do that again.
Jay: it's not ur decision to make and can we stop talking about it in the middle of the hall. Everyone's going to wake up soon. It's almost time for breakfast so let's end the meeting here.
Mason: fine but we r not done talking about this.
Jay: like we ever r.🙄
After that, I again went upstairs to wake up keifer and then go get some breakfast before section e devours everything.
I went inside the room and as I thought, he was still sleeping. I went up to him and shook him a bit.
Jay: wake up keifer, it's time for breakfast.
Keifer( groaning ): few more minutes wifey.
Jay: come on wake up keifer. We have our graduation today. We have leave on time.
Keifer: fine I'll wake up but first give me a kiss.
Jay: what? No.
Keifer: then I won't get up.
Jay: ok then ur loss, no breakfast for u.
I turned to walk away but he caught my arm and pulled me causing me fall on top of him.
My eyes widen while he just smiled sleepily.
I tried to get up but he just wrapped his arms around my waist and tightened his hold.
Keifer: why would I want to eat food when I have u my queen😏
He said and brushed my hair away from my face, his fingers lingering on my cheek for a second too long. I blushed but tried to cover it quickly.
Jay: gago.
He smirked and then kissed me.
Keifer: profanity.
He whispered against my lips.
He let go of me and I immediately got of him. He also got of the bed and stood up, smirking.
Keifer: best morning ever.
Jay( flustered ): shut up and go freshen up already. Breakfast is ready downstairs.
Keifer: ok wifey.
Jay: stop calling me that.
Keifer: not gonna happen.
He said then kissed my forehead and went inside the bathroom, leaving me standing there like a statue.
After a few minutes he came outside the bathroom.
Keifer: let's go downstairs.
He said and acted like nothing happen.
Jay: yeah let's go.
We both went downstairs. Everyone was coming one by one. We sat down on our seats and soon everyone arrived.
" good morning jay. Good morning keifer "
Jay and keifer: good morning.
Kuya angelo: so excited for graduation.
Aries: yes kuya.
Jay: ofc. I can't believe I'm graduating.
Kuya angelo: u better believe it now. I'm proud of u, proud of both of u.
Aries: thanks kuya.
Jay: thank u kuya.
Godfather: jay come right after u r done at ur school. We have already delayed this too much, we can't afford to do it for long now.
Jay: yes godfather.
Keifer: delay what?
Jay: the ceremony.
Godfather: she will finally get her mark.
Jay: well we all r. Right team.
Mason: yeah I'm so excited for that.
Thyme: can't believe this is happening.
Tony: well u should bcz it's happening.
Alys: and then we'll party like there's no tomorrow.
Iris: yesssss.
Eren: wait there is a party?
Mj: yeah, didn't jay tell u about it. We always celebrate when someone gets the mark especially when it's the leader.
Aya( excitedly ): and this time it's going to be huge bcz we all r getting the mark.
Freya: ok jay, u have some serious explaining to do. U always hide things like this from us. What r we even going to wear, where is it going to be, what time is it, we need the details!!!!!
Jay: ok calm down guys. I didn't tell u bcz we never got the time to discuss about it. And u can take something to wear from the basement. It's going to be after we get the mark and I don't know how long it's going to last.
Mason: yeah usually most of us pull an all nighter with a lot of games, dancing and stuff.
Mateo: we all go crazy and this time it's going to be even more crazier.
Godfather: just try not to break anything or shoot anyone like last time.
Mateo: it was an accident.
Alex: yeah keep telling yourself that.
Ci-n: wait, u shot someone.
Mateo: I was drunk ok and if it wasn't for these guys blindfolding me, it would never have happened.
He said pointing towards me, mason, alex and aya.
Mason: it's a good thing he survived.
Jay: yeah otherwise u were going to get some serious beating from godfather.
Godfather: u r right on point there.
Mateo: but I still did got some beating and got banned from drinking.
Jay: u and me both bro.
Ci-n: and it's a good thing. Remember u almost gave me to the flames, u barracuda.
Jay: how can I forget when u keep reminding me everyday ci-n.
Alys: looks like u lost ur ability to drink too jay.
Jay: I hadn't drank since I left the province so it was going to happen at some point.
Keifer: what do u mean drinking ability.
Mj: she used to drink more than any of us and still be able to be conscious.
Thyme: she's was a heavy drinker. Kinda like the Watson's.
Rory: seriously? Jay, a heavy drinker😲
Jay: that was a long time ago. Can we just not talk about it and finish our breakfast. We have to leave soon.
Mj: yeah ok.
We quickly ate our food and then went upstairs to change into our uniforms.
After a while we all got ready and then gathered downstairs.
Jay: ok is everyone here.
Kuya angelo: yes.
Alex: everyone is in position too.
Jay: good. Let's go then.
We all went to our cars. I sat in my rolls Royce with keifer and ci-n as usual. Kuya, mom and tita gem sat in a BMW. Godfather sat in his Mercedes-benz. Some sat in Ferrari, lamborghini and so many other cars. We also had heavy security with us. Most of them were in separate cars while some were in the same cars as ours. The snipers were already all set in place and some men had already reached to circle the perimeter.
We soon reached our school and went inside, straight to the auditorium where the ceremony was held.
After a while the ceremony began. First section a names were called, we all cheered when aries and the girls name were called.
After that was section b then section c where we all once again cheered for rakki, ci-n dramatically stood up on his chair and screamed ' I love u rakki ' at the top of his lungs making rakki blush a bit and everyone else laugh at his craziness.
Then it was section d's turn and then finally section e was called and queue the chaos.
We all cheered, clapped and screamed as the names were called one by one. Some of us actually cried like the sad boy of section e- calix, some of us stood up on our chairs like blaster who jumped a little too much and ended up on the floor. As they got on stage they started pointing at me and screamed ' Jay's warriors '
When keifer's name was called, section e started teasing me and keifer making both of us blushing a little which only made them tease more harder. Then finally my name was called, section e became more chaotic than before, even the girls, my family, godfather and the team joined them in the chaos.
" THAT'S OUR MUTYA RIGHT THERE "
" U GO JAY "
" THAT'S MY ATE "
" OUR ATE "
" IF ANYONE LOOKS AT HER FOR TOO LONG, THEY R GOING TO HAVE TO FACE ME. SHE'S ONLY MINE. SHE'S MY QUEEN. "
( Obviously said by keifer🤭🤪 )
" WE GET IT BRO, CALM DOWN "
After the ceremony, we all went around the school clicking pics at our favourite places.
I took some group shots with section e, some with the girls and some solo pics with everyone. Keifer just watched from a corner. After I was done clicking pics with everyone, he came to me, took my hand and took me to the rooftop.
Jay: why did u bring me here?
Keifer: I wanted some alone time with my wifey. Everyone was too close to u today.
Jay: r u jealous?
Keifer( sulking + pouting ): I have every right to be. My queen is taking pics and spending time with others instead of me.
Jay: u r lucky u r cute when u act like this.
Keifer( smiling ): so u think I'm cute.
Jay: did I say that?
Keifer: yeah.
Jay: so there's ur answer. Now if we r done I'm going back, we need to leave soon.
Keifer: wait, let's take some pics first and maybe have some quite time before going back to our chaotic life.
I rolled my eyes but couldn't help but smile.
Jay: ok.
We took a lot pics together and then some solo pics too. Then we just stood near the railings looking at the chaos below us and laughed a little.
Jay: so this is it huh.
He looked at me confused. I turned to look at him.
Jay: our last day as high school students. Who knows what will happen next. If we'll even go to the same college or be in the same country.
Keifer: and why do u think that?
Jay: it's obvious u'll go back to london. The watson headquarters r there and so is ur whole family. Plus it will be easy to handle everything and u won't have to keep moving from one country to another all the time. I'm not even sure if we'll get to talk to each other after that.
Keifer: don't think like that. My family is here. U and my brothers r my family atleast the ones I want to be with. The others r just nice to me bcz of my inheritance. And I can move the headquarters if I want to. I'm not going anywhere. I'll be wherever u r. I can manage everything. I just want to be with u and Ik for sure I won't be able to survive being away from u. Call me crazy or possessive or obsessed or whatever u want but I don't care bcz it's the truth jay. I am and always will be crazy for u. And u can't escape me now. U r mine and only mine and I'll prove it to u every single day if I have to. U r too good to be mine and I feel like I don't deserve u but u r mine, always. I love u jay, until scientists find the end of the universe. So don't think I'm leaving again bcz I will never do that to u ever again. I love u too damn much that it hurts sometimes. I will never stop loving u or get tired of saying it to u.
I didn't even know when tears started streaming down both our cheeks. Then he looked up at the sky and screamed.
" I LOVE U JASPER JEAN MARIANO, UNTIL SCIENTISTS FIND THE END OF THE UNIVERSE "
I smacked his arm.
Jay: r u crazy. What r u doing. Someone will hear u, stop it.
Keifer: let them. I don't care. And I'm only crazy for u my queen.
Then he kissed me. I kissed him back. The kiss gradually deepened. It was soft and filled with confessions that couldn't be expressed in words. My hands on his chest, clutching his shirt like it was the only thing keeping me grounded. His hands on my waist, pulling me closer until there was no space between us.
We pulled after a while to catch our breath and rested our forehead against each others.
Keifer( breathless ): I love u jay, until scientists find the end of the universe.
Jay: I love u too keifer. So damn much.
Keifer( smirking ): profanity.
Before he could kiss me, I kissed him.
" ahmm, ahmm ", some said clearing there throat.
We both stopped and looked towards the door, only to find EVERYONE looking back at us with shocked expressions.
We immediately pulled apart and created some distance between us.
Keifer( irritated ): what r u all doing here?
Kuya angelo( angry ): we should be asking u both the same question.
Felix( smirking ): we just came here after hearing u yell out ur love for jay.
Mj( smirking ): but we didn't know u would be doing THAT.
Thyme: btw nice confession keifer. I think both ur wedding vows r ready now.
Jay: what? U heard that?
Thyme: yeah. Didn't we tell u that we r sticking with u all. So we quietly followed u up here and saw the whole thing. U guys r like a kdrama.
I smacked keifer's arm again.
Jay: this is all ur fault.
Keifer: ow! it's ur fault for asking that question.
Jay: well it's ur fault for literally screaming ' I love u jay '
Keifer: don't forget the ' until scientists find the end of the universe ' part.😏
Jay: ur impossible.
Keifer( smirking ): still urs.
Mason: ok if u guys r done making out and bickering, can we go now. We need to head back to the base.
Jay: we weren't-
Kit( smirking ): u weren't what jay? Making out? Bcz that's what it looked like.
Jay( groaning ): ugh. Let's just go now.
Tony( smirking ): yeah guys let's go. They might need some more space to finish what they started.
Jay: Not. Another. Word.
Tony: geez relax. I was just joking. Let's go.
We all went downstairs and walked to the parking lot and then got in our cars and started driving towards the base.
