   Summary

   He knows he made a promise, that they would allow stay together, that no matter what they saw what they do, or did they would stay together.

   He knows running away, and pretending he doesn't remember what happened wasnt healthy, but being around them, and every reminder that came with them wasn't either.

   So he left.

   Or it's been 3 years since graduation, and everyone but Mike stayed together, The Party moved to new York, for college, Jonathan and Nancy are doing long distance from their respective colleges, Steve and Eddie traveled, occasionally dropping by everyone's place, but lived in California working odd jobs, Robin and Vickie also moved to California where they could settle down.

   And Mike we'll no ones heard from since he disappeared, at least that's what most of them assumed
