Pls pls pls go read their story "The Good Girl and The Bad Boy" it is really good, and they are an amazing writer. Also, grab your tissues. This is probably the most heart-breaking chapter I've ever written, so get ready. I've included times and dates because they will be important to track what is going to happen.

Luke's POV

Julie asked me to meet her on her porch this morning, so I was just waiting for her now. I was crossing over today and I didn't really know at what time, I just hoped we had enough time to pull off our plan. We already rescued Carrie and Nick, all that was left was to finish Caleb off. Julie came out, holding her phone in her hand with a backup track pulled up on it.

"Julie, what's going on?" I asked, reaching out for her hands. She didn't need the bandages anymore, because Carrie managed to make Caleb heal her and Willie both.

"I know you're crossing over today, so I wanted to give you something before you did. I've been playing around with it and just figured out the lyrics." She pressed play and sat me down on the railing, putting her phone in her pocket.

Julie finished the song and I hugged her.

"I'm gonna miss you so much, Jules. I don't wanna do this." Julie pulled away and looked at me, gripping my hands tightly.

"Listen to me, you're gonna be fine. We're gonna be fine. I'm gonna be fine. Everything will be fine."

Flynn's POV

It's been about three days since I went to get Reggie's bass customized and I just got a call saying that it was ready for pickup. I told Julie, and she said I could borrow her car. I drove to the store to get his bass and what I saw was amazing. I looked to see if anyone was around, before leaning in and whispering what I had to say to Julie. 

"I just got Reggie's bass and it looks amazing. I need help getting him out of the studio so I can put it on the stand."

"Ok, I'll go get him and tell him I need his help with something." Julie left to go find Reggie and I went upstairs to grab his bass. When I saw that Julie texted me 'all clear,' I smiled. I brought Reggie's bass into the studio carefully and placed it on the stand.

"What are you doing?" I spun around on my heels to see Alex standing there, arms crossed.

"I wanted to do something for Reggie to say thanks for everything he's done." I moved over so Alex could see the newly customized bass.

"I-wow. Flynn, he's gonna love it." Alex said, grinning.

"Really?" I asked hopefully.

"Yes, but you better go get him, otherwise he's gonna find out in a kinda weird way..." I texted Julie and asked her where she was.

Julie's POV

I heard my phone go off and looked to see who was texting.

Flynn

Hey, where are you? Everything's ready in the studio.

Julie

On the front porch.
