~ one year later ~
"Alright, family pictures time"
James stand next to me, his arm around my waist, while Emily stand in front of us.
The photographers and the reporters start to take pictures, the flashes bright, even during the day.
I kneel down, behind the gold star that's now on the Walk of Fame. James on my left with Emily.
Looking down at the gold star, that's decorating the Walk of Fame, in the Hollywood Boulevard street, it brings me back.
Back to the day i got a star like this, but smaller. Back to the day Ronan said "you will get your own star, don't worry".
It's like he knew.
I stand up, brushing dust off my dress, and walk to the microphone, pulling out the speech i got ready.
"Wow, this only happened in my wildest dreams to be honest" i start my speech with.
"Once, a friend of mine gave me a keychain" i bring the key chain up. "And he told me 'dont worry, you'll get your own star one day' and here i am. I want to dedicate this star to my old friend, Ronan Elwood. Who risked his life to help the people who needed it, in Ukraine, a year ago. He's not with us today, because he became one of the many stars. These people are the real stars. The real inspiration, and because of them we are standing here today." I smile, as a tear runs down my cheek.
Before i finish my speech, i thank the people that worked with me, that helped me with my career today, all this years. And the people behind the movie, thats the reason i get the star today.
"I want to thank my husband" i turn to where James is sitting. "James, i just want to thank you, for everything. For everything you did for me since we were kids, teenagers and adults. For being here for me when i needed you the most, and for being my best friend before anything else. For giving me a family with Emily and for supporting me together. I love you. I love you both."
People start to applaud, as i make my way down of the pedestal, and meeting my family and friends.
Grace stands up with Aaron, and their now almost two years old twins.
Augustine and Ronan.
They named the baby boy Ronan.
I kiss James on the lips and he hugs me, whispering "I'm so proud of you", as everyone is emptying the seats.
And this, this was the story of us.
Even though all along i was singing the songs for the wrong person, Ronan will always be a part of the song in my heart.
The melody, perhaps, that's stuck in our head at the end of the day.
But James, will always be that one star that completes a constellation in my sky.
I got two stories in the end. With both of my soulmates.
James and mine's story, is still being written, while mine's and Ronan's ended.
And even if you read the story backwards, me and Ronan never end up together, but maybe in another life or perhaps, in another universe, we do.
But in this life, the story of us, was indeed like a Taylor Swift song.
Sad, beautiful and tragic.
