~EPILOGUE~

Laying here in bed i thought about every thing that has happened over the last 10 years. Dad and Gemma had been engaged, so that would have meant i was dating my step-brother, Austin. I don't think that's legal. I was still with Austin. The world seemed to want us together, and to be honest i wanted us together too.

He now in fact wasn't my step-brother anymore. Two months before they, Gemma and Dad, were gonna get married, they were in a terrible car accident. They didn't make it. It had been a sad time for a while. but we made it though it together.Austin went to go live with his uncle on his dad's side. Who also happened to be my next-door neighbor. I never knew that until Austin moved in with him. We went to the same school. Went to prom together. Graduated together. Also went to the same college together.

Mom and Jeremy had gotten married 5years ago. Jeremy was a cool step-dad, but i still miss my dad.

I am now a hair stylist for actors and actresses all over the world. Austin designs jewelry, very expensive jewelry. We had stayed together for 10 years,ever since we were fifth-teen. Which now makes us both 25.

Today,being Christmas would make it exactly 10 years we have been together. After college we moved in with each other. Currently we are living in Miami and the sun was shining down.

"What is going on in that pretty little head of yours babe?" Austin's deep voice snapped me out of my thoughts of are past.

"Just thinking about the passed 10 years. You know today is our 10 year anniversary." I answered honestly.

"Merry Christmas babe."He kissed my forehead, as i snuggled deeper into his bare chest.

"Don't you think we should get out of bed??" I asked.

"I'm perfectly comfortable right were i am. Thought your probably right. Seeing how it is Christmas."He stroked my hair, earning a soft moan from me.

"Babe, if you keep making those sounds, there is no way i'm getting out of bed anytime soon." I instantly blushed at his words.

"Oh get your butt up already." I teased him.

"You'll have to make me."Austin teased back.

I ripped the covers off of his side of the bed. Knowing perfectly well he was naked under those covers. My eyes greedily drank up the sight of him. 10 years and i still can't get get enough of him.

"Enjoying my amazingly toned body?" He smirk, clearly amused.

"Amazingly toned body?? Yea right."I joked.

He flipped me under him, effectively ripping the covers off me too. And seeing how he was naked, i was just as bare.

"Wanna test that theory?" He pressed against me. I could feel him up against my core.

Oh,i wanted to take him up on his offer so badly, but i knew we couldn't. "Austin, my mother and Jeremy are gonna be here in-" I looked at the clock. "Four hours, and i still need to cook and clean." I whined.

"Stupid Christmas."He groaned.

"Don't be such a baby. You love Christmas." i smacked his chest.

"Yeah, your right." He nuzzled his face into my neck.

"I'm always right." I gloated.

"You wanna know why your right?" He asked.

"Why?"

"Because, I get exactly what i want every year. You." Austin Kissed my nose.

"Aw, thanks sweetie. I love you." I gave him a peck on the lips.

"I love you too." He began to kiss me with more desire. Passion rose though me. Every time he kisses me i fill with burning heat, that felt so good.

"Austin." I groaned. "We can't, not now. Later." He showered kisses along my jaw line.

"Fine." He rolled off me."I have a surprise for you."

"I know where i've heard that before." I said remembering back when we were fifth-teen.

"Yea, but i think you'll enjoy and remember this one a lot more than the last one." He winked. Pulling me out of bed. Grabbing our robes from the bed post, he put his on and handed mine to me.He gently tugged me down the stairs.

There was a single box under the Christmas tree. It was just like the gold box i got on our first Christmas. I wore that necklace with me every where. He always got me jewelry. Each prettier than the next. All were one of a kind that he made him self. But the necklace he gave me when we were 15 was always my favorite. I had never taken it off since he first put it on me.

Austin held the box in one hand and set me down on the couch. though he didn't sit down too.

"Austin, babe, aren't you gonna sit down" I patted the seat next to me.

Before i could think of any reason he was just standing there looking at me, he got down on one knee and said"Lizzy,i've loved you ever since i first saw you. And it has always been you. And I want it to be you for the rest of my life. Lizzy. Will you marry me and make me the happiest man on earth?" He opened to the box to reveal a beautiful, single diamond that sat on a platinum band. It was simple yet gorgeous.

My eyes swelled with tears."Of course i'll marry you." I pulled him up to me and placed my lips on his. My kiss was sweet and simple but held so much for the boy i had loved and seen grow into the man before me.

He slid the ring on my finger. I studied the way it sparkled in the sunlight.

"It's a one of a kind. Just like you." He whispered. Hugging me close to his body. "I love you so much, your all i ever wanted. "

"And your all i want too. I love you. Merry Christmas."

"Merry Christmas, my future wife."

I smiled up at him. To think that something like this would have happened to a person.

I'm glad it was me.
