"it's finally done." she smiles, trapping her lip with her teeth. the album was finally done – concept, shoots, a small modification to the line-up of the songs. she felt suddenly relieved. No worries on what the public would think of it, of what the press might think and right, what her co-workers might think of her come the following day. it was her story told in the course of 41 minutes – her pain, her happiness, her love and hate. it was her.

stripped down raw and vulnerable, for the entire world to see. it didn't matter anymore. all that mattered was that she was proud and that she knew that those she loved and was loved by knew the true her – and that every word in those 41 minutes of songs was truthful.

outside the makeshift studio, she'd been very happy to learn harry had put together, she hears the unmistakable sound of harry's laughter, of louis cursing at the television that was most likely playing some football game. with a smile, she closes the album, puts the papers back together and walks out the room. that book in the series was done. the next one would soon begin.

a.n.: today, right as i was about to begin to write this chapter, i realised that i already know the exact sentence that's gonna serve as the last one on this book. i was quite surprised, i must admit, because when i started this i intended to write a simple spin-off from the cheater series, as an alternate universe to that one. a cute small book, no longer than thirty chapters. 

and then it became this monster, now close to its hundredth chapter. and it's all thanks to you, who did not give up on it or in me. so thank you. 

I'd like to write another one after this one has ended, but quite frankly i don't know what about. as it seems i have the bad habit of only using selena gomez as my face claim and i'm certain it's beginning to tire you all. 

once again, thank you all so much xx
