Finally, a new chapter! Hopefully it won't be so long in between this chapter and the next.
Part 1: The Last Days of University
Monica's last term definitely kept her busy. She worked on presentations...
https://i.imgur.com/gDJGt6Q.png
...did homework...
https://i.imgur.com/pgzDI4s.png
...and got sick.
https://i.imgur.com/zymf8hy.png
She was out on her daily morning jog, when Jeb called. He said that he had found a plot of land out west, in a place called Chestnut Ridge, and that he was taking a plane there to see it.
Monica wasn't really sure why he was looking at land. His family already had a large farm.
https://i.imgur.com/HPFjMi7.png
Later that evening, Monica was in the middle of preparing a particularly difficult presentation when the doorbell rang.
https://i.imgur.com/l1rASyu.png
"Jeb? Jeb! What are you doing here?"
"Hey Moni! I have to change planes here, but my second flight got delayed by an hour, so I thought I'd come by and see you!"
"I'm glad to see you Jeb," said Monica, "But..."
"But what?" asked Jeb.
"But I'm kinda in the middle of making a presentation, so..." Monica paused.
"I see," said Jeb, "I won't stay but a few minutes. Let's go inside. Oh, and I brought pizza!"
https://i.imgur.com/Qdw8LUZ.png
https://i.imgur.com/OKB8Wzq.png
They went inside, sat down, and talked for a while.
"Listen, I wanted to ask you," said Jeb.
Monica, getting a little nervous, nodded.
"This land I'm looking at, I...I want you to come and look at it with me. Because one day...well...in the future...we'd need a place to live, and Chestnut ridge would be a great place to raise a family one day."
https://i.imgur.com/t030mjq.png
Monica was a bit overwhelmed, "Jeb, I can't just ignore my classes and get on a plane with you. I...It's not the right time. Maybe one day...soon...we..."
"I get it," said Jeb, coldly, "Well, I better go before I miss my flight. Good evening, Monica."
https://i.imgur.com/mhMiXWe.png
"Jeb wait, I..." said Monica.
"It's fine Mon. Don't worry about it," said Jeb.
"Bye Monica," said Jeb, holding his head down as he left.
Monica, deciding that keeping focused was the best way to process what had just happened, went to work on her presentation, but not before calling Summer and telling her all about what Jeb had said.

The next morning, still getting over her case of the Llama Flu, Monica checked her social media feed. She was shocked to see that she'd reached 1 million followers!
https://i.imgur.com/GzfwEia.png
So she made a video thanking her fans!
https://i.imgur.com/uqZg3yX.png
Later that day, Monica went to visit Bailey and they watched a movie together. It was the same movie that Monica and Summer had watched when they were in high school: College Cram. Monica thought back to what she imagined the "college life" would be like as a teenager. There was definitely a lot more studying and homework, and a lot less partying and romance than in the movies.
https://i.imgur.com/dZJIibb.png
"Wouldn't it be awesome if it was really like in the movies, a lot of partying and almost no studying?" said Monica.
"Well, It could be, "said Bailey, "But I'd rather graduate with good grades, wouldn't you?"
"Well...yeah," said Monica, "But it's a shame we don't have time for both."
https://i.imgur.com/MCXiRFW.png
That evening, Bailey texted her and told her that a friend of hers was having a party, "It'll be just like in the movie!" the text read, "It's the last day of class tomorrow! Do you really want to graduate without having been to one single party?"
Monica texted back, and told Bailey that she'd be there. She put on her Britechester jacket and hat, and headed to the address Bailey had texted her.
https://i.imgur.com/Jw7DemQ.png
The party was just as exciting as the one in the movie! They had games...
https://i.imgur.com/NrFBCoy.png
...they had a DJ...
https://i.imgur.com/qx8IUNo.png
...and they had juice!
https://i.imgur.com/WbWr9XA.png
Monica even managed to do a keg stand with Bailey!
https://i.imgur.com/big7F6H.png
But not without falling.
https://i.imgur.com/wdkXpXL.png
Everyone had a great time, but Monica tried not to get to tired. After all, she had to give her presentation tomorrow. Everyone started leaving around three o'clock the next morning. Monica was a bit tired, but she wasn't really worried since all she had to do was give her presentation. Or at least, that's what Monica thought. She was so tired from the party that she didn't remember to double check her schedule. After she'd already been giving her presentation for thirty minutes, her phone notified her that her class was starting. Oops! Grabbing the presentation board and trying her best to explain to the professor what happened, she ran out of the classroom and down the hall just in time before the lecture began.
https://i.imgur.com/YzdqQJS.png
After class, she went back and asked Professor Williams for another chance. To her surprise, he agreed to watch her presentation and grade it outside of class.
https://i.imgur.com/dBB4LSS.png
The next day, Monica waited anxiously for the email regarding her grades. She hoped that her grades would be good, considering the incident with the presentation.
Just then, the email arrived. It took what seemed like forever to load, and when it did...

Monica breathed a sigh of relief. She had done it! She had passed all of her classes! She would graduate tomorrow!
She was so excited that she ran outside and started dancing!

Part 2: Finally Finished!
Spoiler
The next day, Monica arrived at the Britechester Auditorium. She was so proud to have graduated! And not only graduated, but graduated with a distinguished degree with honors!
https://i.imgur.com/VBqfMiK.png
She took a bunch of selfies to remember the day by.
https://i.imgur.com/4fJfc2U.png
https://i.imgur.com/TTRpgS1.png
https://i.imgur.com/xDTqLFn.png
After the ceremony, everyone came back outside and threw their caps into the air.
https://i.imgur.com/H3ZqpQg.png
https://i.imgur.com/nUrnMyU.png
https://i.imgur.com/OEcWbaS.png
https://i.imgur.com/crxGnji.png
Monica turned around and saw a familiar face coming out of the auditorium! "Mom!", said Monica, giving her a hug, "How did you get here?"
https://i.imgur.com/bEttVSW.png
"We got here on a private jet!" said Lori.
"We?" said Monica. Just then, Summer, Jeb, and Eloise came out of the auditorium!
"Surprise! said Summer, "Well, what good is a private jet if you don't use it to go to your BFFs graduation?"
They all walked back to the student center. Jeb stayed behind everyone, holding his head down as he walked.
https://i.imgur.com/QhZRITR.png
When they got to the student center, Monica gave Jeb a hug, "I'm sorry about the other day, Jeb. I..."
"Please, don't worry about it," said Jeb, "I want you to enjoy your graduation day, not worry about me."
https://i.imgur.com/5Daaox6.png
Monica knew she had hurt Jeb's feelings the other day, and she felt really bad about it.
"I really am sorry Jeb, she said, "I really mean it."
https://i.imgur.com/fMVn0Vk.png
"I know you do, " said Jeb, hugging Monica.
https://i.imgur.com/EW3iv3J.png
"But listen, "said Jeb, "I looked at that land, and it's just perfect! I want me and you to buy it together."
https://i.imgur.com/M6wTT0l.png
"What?" said Monica, shocked, "But Jeb! It's not time! You haven't even...we..."
"I don't mean go and live there right now!" said Jeb, I just mean buy it together before someone else does. Think about our future Moni!"
"It's just...not yet, "said Monica, "We don't really know what our future will be, Jeb. We..."
"Let's talk about this another time," said Jeb, interrupting Monica, "For now, let's just enjoy this moment," he said, trying to change the subject.
https://i.imgur.com/R4KhBDR.png
Everyone talked for a while, celebrating Monica's graduation, but Monica couldn't stop thinking about what Jeb had said. What should she do? He was rushing things so much, but yet, she kind of wanted to rush things. It was all so much to process.
Just then, Eloise sat down next to her, "I know that look," she said, "Same look you had before your high school dance. What's up?"
Monica told her all about what Jeb had said, and what she had told him.
https://i.imgur.com/ktf2IYk.png
After thinking for a moment, as she always did, Eloise said, "The question here is, what do you want to do? Not Jeb. You."
Monica thought about that, then said, "I'm not really sure."
"Ok," said Eloise, "Let me rephrase that: If you could be in any town, doing any job, with anyone, where, what, and who would that be?"
"Um...Thinking big, probably San Myshuno, the fashion capital of SimNation. It's where all the most famous designers live, and also it's where a lot of really famous artists have gotten their start too! I'd like to be a style influencer there. It would combine my love of fashion with my love of social media and making videos."
"And would Jeb be there with you?" asked Eloise.
"Of course!" said Monica, without hesitation.
"You're sure?" asked Eloise.
"I'm...sure...I think..." said Monica.
"Well, once you figure that out, you'll know what you need to do," Eloise said.

Part 3: Home
Spoiler
Monica took one last look at her house in Britechester. She would miss it, but she also missed home. Bailey was going to move into the house while she finished her degree at Britechester, while Monica went home for a while to figure out what her next steps would be now that she had a degree.
https://i.imgur.com/xo9ynf0.png
She packed up her things, pausing for a moment before packing up her degree. Monica wished that she had remembered to remove her sweater before they took her graduation photo in the auditorium. She had put in on after the ceremony as it was quite cold, and then the photographer just came over and snapped the picture.
https://i.imgur.com/BbLPdLW.png
She gave Bailey a hug and said goodbye to her, and the little house in Britechester.
https://i.imgur.com/GDgTQYO.png
Her mom, Summer, Jeb, and Eloise had been staying at the nearby hotel. Monica was going to fly home with them on Summer's private jet.
When Monica arrived home, Don Lothario was standing on the sidewalk.
https://i.imgur.com/X53Xker.png
"Hey Monica!" he said, "It's been a while! Heard you were coming home today! How have you been?"
"Hey Don!" Monica said. They went inside and Monica gave Don a hug.
https://i.imgur.com/wOOBQWV.png
"So, a Fine Art degree, I hear?" he said, "I knew you'd do well at Britechester."
https://i.imgur.com/gDRq25R.png
They talked for a while before Don and Monica headed downstairs to the basement.
"Just like in high school, eh?" he said, "Those were the days! Everything seemed a lot...easier then, didn't it?"
"Yeah," said Monica, "wait, what do you mean?" she asked.
"Well, I mean with Jeb asking you about buying that land and all...you have some pretty big decisions to make, don't ya?" he said.
"How did you hear about that?" asked Monica.
"Willow Creek is a small town. Word travels fast. Of course, you probably forgot that living in a big city like Britechester, didn't you?"
https://i.imgur.com/Ys8OQU2.png
"I..." began Monica.
"Oh, I wanted to give you something!" Don said, interrupting her. He handed Monica a box, "Go on open it!" he said.
Monica opened the box, "Oh! It's a violin!" she said.
"Yeah, my dad made it for you," said Don, "We heard you took violin lessons as part of your degree, so..."
https://i.imgur.com/MsEKCJI.png
"Thank you so much!" said Monica, hugging Don."
https://i.imgur.com/hyvW7Mz.png
"Now you can play music that's as pretty as you are" said Don.
https://i.imgur.com/kBVLeOY.png
Monica couldn't help but blush.
Just then, Lori came downstairs.
https://i.imgur.com/rPtM2Av.png
"Well go on! Try it out!" said Don.
Despite taking lessons, Monica had never actually played a violin. Her courses only required her to read the textbook and pass the quizes.
Taking a deep breath, Monica began to play.
https://i.imgur.com/gvoXlNn.png
She made lots of mistakes at first, but as she relaxed, her playing improved. She still made mistakes, but Don seemed very impressed with her playing.
Monica was quite proud of herself. Guess she did learn something in those violin classes after all!
https://i.imgur.com/peKhK3Y.png
That evening Monica and her mom watched the TV season premiere. Monica was too excited about tomorrow to really pay attention to the show. Tomorrow, after all, was Love Day!
https://i.imgur.com/3heHQGk.png
Her mom had bought some new furniture for her room. Nothing fancy since she wouldn't be staying very long, but it was still cozy, and brought back memories of high school.
It took her quite a while to go to sleep. She couldn't wait to see what Jeb had planned for tomorrow!

Part 4: Love Day
Monica woke up early the next morning. Love Day was here at last! She didn't think about the argument that she and Jeb had the other day over the land, or what her future might hold now that she had a degree. All she could think about was Jeb's plans! She knew he must have something exciting planned, since he hadn't said a word about it all week.
https://i.imgur.com/BYz0Uid.png
After showering and brushing her teeth, she went upstairs to eat breakfast.
https://i.imgur.com/vrpDb7u.png
After finishing breakfast, she texted Jeb "Happy Love Day" to let him know she was awake.
https://i.imgur.com/j04cYlA.png
After about thirty minutes, her phone rang!
Spoiler
But it wasn't Jeb. It was someone named Erik Lewis, from a charity organization.
https://i.imgur.com/dE8fDRC.png
Monica had plenty of money, so she gave §1,000 to the charity.

https://i.imgur.com/tVBv5JN.png
Monica decided to go for her morning jog. That would give Jeb time to reply. He was probably still getting ready, or making reservations at a nice restaurant, or something.
After her jog, she checked again. Nothing. She texted him again. Maybe he didn't get her first text. Phone service in Willow Creek could be spotty sometimes. He probably just didn't get it.
https://i.imgur.com/MJiwGYw.png
To pass the time, Monica decided to ride around on her scooter for a while. She rode around for about an hour, then checked her phone again.
Still nothing. She texted him again. He probably just didn't see that last one.
https://i.imgur.com/lDNOqBv.png
Monica rode her scooter back home, and checked her texts.
https://i.imgur.com/1ylOt7b.png
Still. No. Reply. Monica couldn't wait any longer. She called Jeb's phone, and he answered.
https://i.imgur.com/bGEFxv1.png
"Hey Mon! What's up?" he said.
"You didn't get my texts?" Monica asked.
"Texts? Um..."
"Just come over," said Monica, "The phone service must be having problems.
"Alright," said Jeb. Within minutes Monica saw him running down the sidewalk.
"Hey," he said.
https://i.imgur.com/U8SGGu9.png
When she saw Jeb, all thoughts of him not texting back just floated away, "Hey Jeb! Happy Love Day!"
https://i.imgur.com/piBlRJ4.png
"Happy Love Day Mon!" Said Jeb.
https://i.imgur.com/iOLQnfU.png
"So...how about we go to Chez Llama for lunch today?" asked Monica, secretly wanting to ask him before he had a chance to...not ask her. She had a feeling he wouldn't have.
https://i.imgur.com/AkokIYC.png
"Sure!" said Jeb.
They agreed to meet at Chez Llama at noon.
When they arrived, Monica and Jeb both realised that their chosen outfits weren't particularly suited for Chez Llama. Everyone else was wearing fancy formal dresses and expensive suits.
Jeb's choice in particular, was...questionable.
https://i.imgur.com/rksHUwx.png
"Jeb! Please go change! You can't even eat with that bag on your head," said Monica.
https://i.imgur.com/tLyfuIN.png
While Jeb changed, Monica requested a table for them. Nancy Landgraab stared at her the whole time.
https://i.imgur.com/o0vDnhD.png
After Monica changed into her own formal wear, Jeb came out wearing his formal outfit. The same formal outfit he'd wore to prom, "It still fits!" said Jeb.
https://i.imgur.com/uEX7if7.png
"A rose, for my love!" he said.
https://i.imgur.com/ipxsWo5.png
"Aww! How sweet!" said Monica. They sat down at their booth and ordered their food.
https://i.imgur.com/EtbpbB9.png
Erik Lewis and his family sat down at the booth next to them, "Hey! You're the one who gave a donation to the charity this morning, aren't you?" he said.
"How did you know?" asked Monica.
https://i.imgur.com/t32l3lM.png
"I heard your date call you Monica," said Erik, "He is your date, isn't he?"
"Yep!" said Jeb, proudly.
https://i.imgur.com/G5VuHF7.png
Soon, their food arrived.
https://i.imgur.com/8wd9tEp.png
Chez Llama was known for their experimental cuisine. All of the dishes were one of a kind! No other restaurant in the world served them.
https://i.imgur.com/Fq9E7PO.png
Monica's meal: Glazed Heirloom Bamboo Roll.
https://i.imgur.com/x0WVsBv.png
Jeb's meal: Volcano Pasta.
https://i.imgur.com/RAt67uJ.png
It was really delicious!
https://i.imgur.com/xcP1vEP.png
https://i.imgur.com/k4Zmv7d.png
https://i.imgur.com/h7pkuPC.png
"I almost forgot! Happy Love Day Jeb!" said Monica, handing Jeb a gift.
https://i.imgur.com/gcGwCjb.png
"Oh man! I've always wanted a...notebook?" Jeb looked a bit confused.
"It's a journal!" said Monica, "You can write down all of your thoughts and feelings in it. I thought you might find it useful."
"I love it! Thanks Mon! I'm definitely writing about this date in my journal!" Jeb said, smiling.
https://i.imgur.com/mW2YGnF.png
"This has been the best day I've had since you left for college," said Jeb, giving Monica another rose.
https://i.imgur.com/7urqgPt.png
Soon it was time to go, and Monica made her way through the crowd of people. Chez Llama was very popular!

Thanks for reading!
Author's Notes (spoilers, read these last.)
Monica Graduated University! Yay!
She's also doing quite well with her videos, and book.
https://i.imgur.com/vYyeK3a.png
Monica's also a two star celebrity now, thanks to her videos. I plan to have her stay at home for a while, until I figure out what I want her to do next. In the meantime, she'll still work on more videos and do her freelance artist job.
Don was actually standing there when I moved Monica back home! It's like he was waiting on her!
I love this screenshot, though lol
Spoiler
https://i.imgur.com/rPtM2Av.png
https://i.imgur.com/rPtM2Av.png
Her everyday outfit uses an accessory sweater, which apparently appeared in her graduation photo. I would've taken it off, if I'd known it would do that, but now, I kind of think it adds some uniqueness to her graduation photo.
https://i.imgur.com/DMZasJa.png
The scene with the professor and the presentation was created after everything else, as I was writing this chapter. It just felt like it was missing a picture, and I wanted to show Monica's classroom since we can't really go inside the classes.
I actually did forget to check her schedule, and she almost missed a class! (though it actually happened on the day before the last day of class.) I cancelled the "give presentation" action, not thinking about the fact that her presentation counted for way more than just a regular class day, but thankfully, she was able to redo it later.
I was so surprised when Jeb showed up! Previously, I had a mod that only allowed visits from sims in the same world, but the settings for that mod got reset. Jeb lives in Willow Creek, which I imagine to be in the sims equivalent of America. Britechester, however, I imagine to be in England, so I had to come up with a way for him to be able to show up at the door. As for him asking about moving in together, I didn't know sims could do that! It must be a feature that came with one of the new packs I bought during the Holiday sale. (Growing Together, maybe?)
He really did ask twice, and when she said no, he got a sentiment that said something like "I thought we were closer than that."
If you look closely at the screenshot where he asks, you can see that he asked while Monica was in the bathroom, um...well...filling her needs. :#

He just walked right in and asked her! He wasn't even embarrassed! Monica was, of course.
She also ate the pizza that he gave her later.

As for their date, I had Monica send Jeb a "flirty text". Usually, when I use that option, the other sim will text back and ask the sim who sent it on a date. That didn't happen with Jeb. I tried multiple times, but no reply. Also, I thought I removed that bag on all of his outfits.
