IT took Andrea and Isaac fifteen whole years to gather up the courage to move back to Beacon Hills.
After leaving, the two spent a few years in France. Specifically in Paris and Bordeaux—the hometown of Andrea's father. They moved to England for college, before ending up traveling the world for a few months right after graduation.
The two then returned to England upon's Andrea request, who wanted continued her masters degree there. Andrea chose to go to law school, wanting to be a lawyer just like Ava was—though she ended up being a prosecutor.
Much to everyone's surprise, Isaac ended up being a geologist. Not going to lie, Andrea was completely and utterly shocked when the boy voiced his desire to be one—but the woman chose to support him no matter what had happened.
They had been to the town numerous times after the couple had left but they never stayed for longer than they needed. Always staying around for a few days, only to help the pack whenever they were needed.
So there they were, in Derek's former loft—which was given to Andrea not too long ago—to move their boxes inside. With a smile on her face, Andrea couldn't stop herself from reaching into one of the boxes to grab a picture.
Her fingers traced the picture inside the black frame, her smile not fading out of the woman's face. In the picture, she was wearing a long, off the shoulder mermaid white dress. While Isaac wore a dark blue suit and tie.
Yes, Andrea Laurent wasn't just a Laurent anymore. She was Andrea Laurent-Lahey.
The two of them decided to combine both of their names, because though Andrea loved to be a Lahey—she wasn't planning on giving up on being a Laurent. She had been a Laurent all of her life, and she didn't want to let that part of her go.
Being one of the two remaining Laurent—the ones that they know of, at least—made it hard for her to let go of her maiden name. And so Isaac had the idea of hyphenating their names, the man clearly not having any problems with it.
Their wedding was easily one of the happiest days of both their lives. Their friends—old and new—all made their appearances, with Nathan being the one who walked Andrea down the aisle.
She still remembered how he managed to tear up when seeing Andrea wearing her white gown. His baby sister wasn't such a baby anymore, she was all grown up and ready to marry a man she'd love so dearly.
It was finally his time to let her go, to let her not be a part of his responsibility anymore. But Andrea knew that deep down, Nathan would always think of her as his responsibility—she was his little sister after all.
Malia was a bridesmaid in Andrea's wedding while Lydia Martin became the maid of honor. She was the first person Andrea met in the small town that changed her life forever, of course Andrea would want her to be the maid of honor.
Isaac named Scott and Stiles to be his groomsmen, and despite the Stilinski's difference with Isaac—he accepted happily. The person who was Isaac's best man was none other than Derek Hale, who had been so honored that he let out a single tear when Isaac asked him—though there was no way he would admit that.
Andrea thought back on her wedding day with a grin on her face. It was hard not to—the entire thing had been so perfect.
The mermaid dress she wore successfully brought tears to Isaac's eyes from where he stood beside Derek. Though Isaac wasn't the only one who shed tears, Nathan, Ava, Derek and the rest of their friends also did. Those people were the most important people in her life aside from Isaac, and they were all so proud to see where the woman had gotten.
Ava was the emotional mess out of everyone—excited and happy to see her daughter finally tying the knot with the man she had loved ever since Sophomore Year of high school. She had watched their love grew from time and time, she was proud, to say the least.
Andrea remembered almost every detail in that wedding day—except for the part when the girl became a little tipsy at end of the wedding—even though it had happened a full seven years ago. Though she might not be able to get fully drunk, a right amount of alcohol is definitely able to make her a little tipsy.
Even after having been married for so long, the two chose to not have any children. Not because they hated kids, but because they knew that having one was a lot of responsibility—something they weren't sure they were up for. Especially given that both of them had rough childhood.
So they ended up being the second parent of their best friends' children. Caring for the children as if they were their own, giving them another home to go to—because everyone knew that being a supernatural being was dangerous, and there was always a threat coming their way.
Most of their friends' children loved them. Of course they would—Andrea and Isaac were the type of people who loved spoil the kids, something that their friends hated.
Feeling two strong arms around being wrapped around her waist made the woman smile, knowing who it was without even having to look. Her husband kissed the crook of Andrea's neck before asking, "What are you doing?"
She held out the wedding picture, letting the man take look at it. A chuckle escaped her lips as she said, "We were so happy."
"Yeah, I remember," Isaac mumbled, a smile had also grown on his face. "God, Derek gave the worst best man speech ever."
Andrea couldn't stop herself from laughing upon hearing what had came out of Isaac's mouth. Her wedding day was the first time she had ever seen Derek being funny—so much so that Andrea was sure she was about to die from laughing.
Nathan was the same, giving the audience a very embarrassing speech. And that was Isaac's time to laugh, while Andrea's face grew incredibly red. Though it wasn't a surprise, Nathan had a lifetime worth of embarrassing moments—perfect for the wedding.
"I still can't believe we're still in love," Andrea muttered, leaning against the man's chest. "After over fifteen years."
Isaac furrowed his brows in confusion, "Why? Did you not plan on marrying me?"
The woman let out a chuckle and shook her head, "It's just ... weird, you know. Most high school couple doesn't even make it past Freshman year of college."
"True," he nodded. "But most high school couples have never been through half of what we went through. I mean, I had to watch you almost die, like, ten times—which might not seem a lot in the last fifteen years, but it's definitely more than what my heart can handle."
Being married to each other wasn't a walk in the park—especially considering that the two were supernatural beings. There would always be ups and downs, fights and argument—just like there had been in their relationship before marriage.
But they were so in love that the couple knew there wasn't anything they weren't willing to work through. Andrea and Isaac made a promise to go through everything together, and they would.
