Epilogue

Sorry for any mistakes.

Five months had passed since you'd been to the Nether.

You kept in touch with Terry to see how he was doing in the Nether and people seem to love him. The people in the Nether had never been happier.

You had also never been happier.

Your soulmate bonding with Travis was probably one of the best things that could've happened to you. Travis was so kind and loyal, you couldn't ask for a better boyfriend.

Travis wanted to get away with you for a vacation since you didn't get much private time at home. You still lived with Lucinda and he still lived with Dante. You guys would visit each other so often, but you never got real alone time.

That's how you ended up on Starlight.

Travis had gotten a place to stay at the Starlight Resort and couldn't be more ecstatic you were there with him.

You first were sleeping on separate beds, but then one night Travis had a nightmare and climbed into your bed. He's slept in your room ever since.

Besides that, you guys ended up running into Aphmau and the rest of the gang on the island. You also found out that Aaron and Aphmau were engaged.

Then THAT brings you to now; Aaron and Aphmau's engagement party.

A soft breeze blew through the pavilion. You smiled softly as you looked around. Everyone was chatting with each other.

It had only been a year since you moved into the neighborhood, but they accepted you so fast. You were surrounded by loving people and you knew your mother would be happy for you.

Your thoughts were interrupted as an arm snaked its way around your waist and a head rested on your shoulder. You jumped slightly from the touch.

"Travis! You scared me," you laughed.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to startle you," he mumbled into your shoulder.

You patted his head and turned so you would face him.

"Let's go somewhere," you said looking into his eyes.

His eyes sparkled then quickly went normal. "What about the party?"

"It'll be fine. We're still on vacation you know."

Travis nodded and you took his hand as you led him out of the pavilion.

Lucinda caught sight of you two and smiled lovingly. "Ah, young love."

Laurance looked at her funny. "You're not that much older than them."

"I'm still old enough to say that though."

You brought Travis to a secluded place you had found when exploring the islands. It was along the beach, but a more private area.

Travis raised his eyebrows as you grabbed a towel from behind a bush and spread it out. Then you sat down on it and patted the spot next to you. Travis sat down as well.

The scenery in front of you was perfect. Orange, pink, and purple painting the sky as the sun was slowing going down the horizon. The ocean under was reflecting the light and you could hear the distant sound of waves crashing as it hit the shore.

You leaned your head on Travis's shoulder and he wrapped his arms around you to pull you closer.

Silence floated in the air between you for a while before Travis interrupted.

"I can't believe it," he said.

You lifted your head up slightly to look at him. "Hmm?"

He squeezed you tight. "I can't believe I'm here with you in my arms. I can't believe you actually gave me a chance."

"Why wouldn't I?" you questioned.

He let out a breathy chuckle. "Because of my flirty nature."

You stifled a laugh. "I wasn't going to completely judge you based on first impressions. That wouldn't be fair."

You got out of Travis's arms and stood up. "Give me your hand. Let's go."

He grabbed your hand and grinned. "I'll go wherever you go."

You ran down to the shoreline dragging Travis along with you. You let go when you got to the rushing waves. You took a deep breath and admired the view of the ocean. The breeze came back gently lifting your hair, as if it was all planned.

Travis froze as you looked over at him and smiled. "Isn't the ocean beautiful?"

Travis didn't say anything, he was absolutely breathless. He couldn't believe that you were his. You moving into the neighborhood was the best thing that could have possibly happened.

You tilted your head in confusion. "Travis? Are you al-"

Travis scooped you up into his arms and spun you around. You held onto him tight as you laughed.

"What's all this for?" you asked in between laughter after he stopped spinning.

He didn't saw anything as he held you close to him. You looked into his emerald green eyes as he looked into your eyes.

"I don't think you'll ever understand how much I love you."

Both of you guys were overwhelmed with emotion but when he said he loved you, tears filled your eyes. He set you down and wiped your tears away.

"Don't cry. I love you and that's not going to change," he gave you a reassuring smile.

"I love you too."

Travis stopped all movement for the second time that night. He had always told you he loved you, but you hadn't said it yet. You weren't ready and he was going to wait until you were. And all of a sudden, you said it.

Travis's eyes also filled with tears. "You said it," he whispered breathless.

You nodded biting your lip trying to hold back your tears, but you smiled through it all.

"I love you Travis. I love you so much."

Travis couldn't stop smiling. He captured your lips in his. It was a kiss full of emotion. So much love, so much joy. There was nobody else in the world that could make Travis happier.

You were his, and he was yours.
