- My case is more emotional

abuse which I didn't know

you could take

somebody to court for.

But I'm safe now.

Dr. Bailey's helping me.

- He seems decent.

I'm happy for you.

Are you gonna change schools or?

- I thought about it

but since Dr. Bailey

works at the school I

figured I better stay.

- Well, I'm glad you're staying

even if it's not with me.

- Maxton--

- Hey, it's okay.

This is the part where

you tell me you're going

with the handsome prince

and not the regular dude.

- I'm sorry.

- Don't be.

It might not of been

legit but you were mine

for years and I don't

need more than that.

- You deserve more than that

and you'll have it some day.

(sighs)

- Just not with you.

- You know what you will have?

A best friend.

Promise me that you'll

stay my best friend.

- Friends for life?

- Forever.

(light music)

- [Indy Voiceover] As

I watched him walk away

I fully expected things to

be awkward here and there

especially if he and Bryant

were in the same room,

but Maxton has been such a huge

part of my life for so long

and we were learning now

what love really was.

I think that'll help us both.

We'll be fine.

As luck would have

it, Dr. Bailey wasn't

just good at his job,

he was really good.

Between his testimony and

the state's investigation

my aunt and uncle not

only lost custody of me,

they were ordered

to make payments

to pay back my mom's

life insurance policy.

As well as another

big sum to make up

for the missing assets and any

emotional trauma they caused.

I couldn't touch most

of it until I was 18

but holy smokes, I was loaded.

The first thing I did

was get a set of wheels.

Bryant's dad assured

me it was a good deal.

He also told me it'd be wise not

to spend all my money at once.

Funny thing was, I never

cared about the money,

never even thought I had

any, I only wanted to belong.

I did move out to the

pool house, though.

Since Bryant and I were dating

I figured it was the

right thing to do.

We all have dreams; some

of us wanna be singers,

dancers, astronauts, whatever,

after losing my

mom this was mine.

To have a family again.

- [Bryant] Wow.

- Yeah?

- [Dr. Bailey] Whoa,

whoa, whoa, you're not

doing prom stuff

without me, are ya?

- [MacKenzie] Dad!

You and your pictures.

- Yeah, you don't go to

prom without pictures.

And a little...

(groans)

Battery issue.

Hang on just a sec.

- Do you know how

beautiful you are?

- For the first time

I feel beautiful

and that's all because of you.

- No, not me.

You've always been this way.

You know, if it wasn't

for Mrs. Wiggins

I don't think we'd

be here today.

So I got you

something, wait here.

- Oh.

She's beautiful.

(meowing)

Thank you.

This is the happiest

moment of my life.

- I'm gonna be competing with

the cat for your

attention, aren't I?

- She's not the only

reason why I'm happy.

- Okie doke, problem solved.

Picture time.

Oh yeah.

Oh, Bryant's got two dates.

And nice.

(camera clicking)

Ah, nice.

Look at that.

- [Bryant] Roni, get in here.

- Nice.

- Now you, Dr. Bailey.

- Oh, okay.

If you insist.

I think that's the button.
