Sonja's POV:

~12 Years Later~

It's been twelve years since the birth of my beautiful daughter. Skyler or Sky for short. She is the best child I could wish for and one of the smartest children at her school. Tucker and I are as happy as always, pursuing different careers then twelve years ago.

A year after Sky was born we decided to do another multiplayer series like Mianite. A year after that Tom left YouTube for good to pursue another career. Two years later Tucker and I announced that we have been given different opportunities and were going to take them, thus we quit YouTube.

Occasionally, we still stream on Twitch for fun and to reunite with our fans. These twelve years have been the best in my life. My worries, my depression and anxiety have become so minuscule and insignificant that I barely notice them. Tucker still loves me like he did the first time he met me and I love him too. We're having a lot of fun raising a daughter and our family bond grows stronger and stronger every day.

My family and friends have made my life possible. Everyone around me is a blessing and there is not one day that I don't wake up and I'm not grateful.

I sometimes think back to my young self. A small scared child in foster care. I was positive that no one would ever love me but I was proven wrong. I have had a hard life, my downs being more destructive then my ups. I was a twenty year old inexperienced person with not a lot of money, a lot of depression and anxiety, insecurity and a huge world around me. As I matured people who loved me and cared for me walked into my life and I married one of them.

I am happy. Finally I could say that I have a house, a stable income, a loving husband, an extraordinary child, amazing friends and caring fans.

I have a life.

"Mommy where's my notebook?" I heard a small voice come from downstairs.

"It's right here" I showed Sky when I came down.

Tucker was sitting in his armchair, drinking tea and reading one of Tom's books.

You might be asking what our friends are doing, if we're even still friends.

Yes, we're friends.

Tom writes books now. He realized after his first two books that writing was something he was very passionate about. So he retired, sold his mansion in England and moved to LA. He writes books in his house. It's looks like a castle really. It has a nice ocean view and an amazing pool.

Jordan and Erin went on to start their own company where they teach kids about video games. Their little circle feels like home for a lot of children because Jordan and Erin are very communicative and easy to talk to. They do fun interactive classes so kids have a chance to interact with electronics.

Tucker went on to program video games and he does his work from home. His games are a huge deal nowadays and earn a lot of popularity. He is extremely happy with his decision.

I, in turn, work for the same company as Tucker. I do graphic design for his games. Yes, I learned how to draw. And as a part time job, I read Tom's books because he trusts me to correct and add anything I wish. It's great.

Ally and Brennon both retired early and moved to the Caribbean.

That would be all. We all still keep in touch almost every day because the bonds we made are unbreakable.

I told myself I wouldn't fall in love with anyone after Troy.

But.

I did.

Tucker was my Exception.

A/N: With a heavy heart and, admittedly, a few tears on my face, I hereby announce that the story Exception is officially over. I have had a majestic run with this novel and it has shown me what I am capable of and made me fall in love with reading and writing even more than before. With that, I thank you, dear reader. I thank you for reading this story and sticking with me through thick or thin and for always keeping my spirits up. In the words of Ianite: "Thank you for choosing to create me. I believe that had the other you not made that choice in that far off world, none of my present selves would exist. In a strange sense, you are my god. Thank you for believing in your creation enough to make it real. Thank you for continuing to love me and make choices for my wellbeing. I hope another you loves another me in another world soon". This quote is relevant because without you, dear reader, this story would not exist. Without your kind words, this story would have never soared high and it would have never become what it is now. In a weird sense you, my reader, is the god of it all.

I hope you continue to enjoy my future works and I hope you loved my first one. I thank you, even though I know I will never be able to pay you back for everything.

I love you dear reader <3

Forever Yours, UnicornLaz
