One Year Later
Oh boy can a lot happen in just one year. Miguel and I told everyone the truth about Ernesto. Now no one keeps his tomb clean. Someone even put a sign next to statue that says. 'Forget You'

On my way to my Boyfriend's house I saw a Tour Guide shows off the small Héctor Museum Miguel and I made. "And right over here, one of Santa Cecilia's greatest treasures. The home of the esteemed songwriter, Héctor Rivera. The letters Héctor wrote home for his daughter, Coco contain the lyrics for all of your favorite songs. Not just Remember Me."

I smile at the sight. Remember Me is a great song. But Héctor other songs are just as great. Arrived at Miguel's house to see Papá for here before me. Started now we celebrate Da de los Muertos with Miguel's family.

Heard Miguel's voice coming from the photo room. And headed in there first. "And that man is your Papa Julio. And there's Tía Rosita. And your Tía Victoria. And those two are Oscar and Felipe."

I walk up to Miguel and his little sister, Socorro. Waving to the little girl in his arm. Miguel smile at me and continue explaining Da de los Muertos to her. "There aren't just old pictures, they're our family. And they're counting on us to remember them.

Abuelita comes over and sadly put Mama Coco's photo on ofrenda. Miguel and I give her a small smile and he hugs her. "Oh, you two better get ready." She said taking Socorro from Miguel and walking outside.

Miguel looks at me. "You ready real first Da de los Muertos?" I chuckle. "Gotta go better then last year right?" Miguel laughs. "It well but won't be as fun." He said. "Maybe. But at least a lot safer." Miguel and I laugh.

3rd Person P.O.V
In the land of the dead Héctor takes his hat off and is about to try to pass the gate again. But this time as him self.

Miguel: "Say that I'm crazy Or call me a fool"

Héctor gives a nervous chuckle as the machine scans his face. The machine then dings surprising Héctor. "Enjoy your visit, Héctor." The lady skeleton told him. Héctor sighs in relief. And walks out putting his hat on.

(Name): "But last night it seemed that I dreamed about you"

Imelda and Héctor kiss each other. Coco walks towards them calling out to Héctor. "Papa!" Héctor turns to his daughter with the biggest smile ever on his face. "Coco!" He gives her the biggest hug ever and kisses at least more then five times. Before swing her around.

The family hold hands together and started walking across the flower bridge. Héctor looks down at his feet. Still expecting to sink in. But he doesn't. He is now able to cross the bridge. Into the living world to see his family.

(Name): "And you knew every word And we all sang along"

Dante and Pepita fly over head into the living world. Turning into a normal dog and cat. Pepita rubs up against Dante making the dog give him a big lick. The two then run into the yard.

Miguel plays Héctor's guitar as he and (Name) sing. The family living and dead listen and some dance to the song. Coco raps her arm around her daughter who cries tears of joy at her grand son.

Both: "To a melody played On the strings of our souls And a rhythm that rattled us Down to the bone Our love for each other Will live on forever In every beat Of my proud corazn Our love for each other Will live on forever In every beat Of my proud corazn Ay mi familia Oiga mi gente Canten a coro Let it be known Our love for each other Will live on forever In every beat Of my proud corazn"

Héctor and Imelda are dance to the song. But stop so Héctor can get a guitar from Miguel to play along with them. Miguel and (Name) jump on the table to finshed up the song. Their father's lift the two up in the air as fireworks go off on the sky.

Both: "Ay mi familia Oiga mi gente Canten a coro Let it be known Our love for each other Will live on forever In every beat Of my proud corazn"

Years Later (Name's) P.O.V
As years go by Miguel and I went on to be musicians like he always dream. With Miguel on the guitar and me singing along side him. The world seem to live are duet as much as Remember Me.

But are career didn't just grow over the years. So did our family. At one of our performs Miguel actually took a pause before he play our last song.

"Before we move on to the last song. I would like to just take a moment. I always dream about being a musicians. Ever since I was a little boy. Before my family support my dream. The only one who gave me hope was this beautiful lady right here next me."

My face became red at the complete. The audience gave out an aw. They always seem to love it when we who have a moment on stage. Miguel turn to face me.

"(Name), you are the most amazing person to ever enter my life. You gave enough hope to keep chasing my dream. And you ever stuck with me. Even when I made some really dumb decisions. I couldn't asked for a better friend. Partner. And...."

Just then Miguel got down on one knee and pull out a small box. Opening up to show a ring inside. "Wife." He finshes opening the box. Myself and the audience gasp. I bring my hands up to my face. Feeling some tears sneaking down my face.

"Will you do me the honor of becoming me wife? And continue to be by my side? Through all my good and bad decisions?" He asked. The audience begin to tell me to say yes.

I wipe the tears away and say. "Someone got keep you out of trouble." Miguel smile and took out the ring to place it on my finger. The audience cheer and clap and Miguel and I kiss.

Only Miguel would think to propose on stage. As the years pass we have three amazing children.

Our oldest was a boy at thirteen. We name him Héctor after the greatest musician and grandfather of all time. Ironically enough Hector does enjoy playing the guitar. But is more interested and becoming a Shoemaker.

The second oldest was another boy at eleven. We name him Chicharrón, after the skeleton we met in the Land of the Dead. He is more interested in seeing the world. Then deciding on what he want to do in it.

Our last child was a girl at eight. We name her after my Mamá. (Mother's Name), is very interested in becoming a musician. And can't want till she can play a real guitar instead of a toy one.

When we had Héctor Jr. We decide to continue being musicians. But not have as many shows as we use too. Our kids even sometimes join in on our performances. We had roots put down. But that didn't mean we still couldn't play for the world. And if we hand to put a pause on what we love for our kids we did.

Nothing is more important then family.
