Epilogue

                                                                                       5 years later 

Here I am, married to the love of my life. He has his dream job as a quarterback of the L.A Rams and we have the life we always wanted. My mom is a New York Bestseller and I have a beautiful three year old daughter who has all of her daddy's traits. She's the definition of Camoran. She has dirty blonde hair, more like yellow. Like the sunshine. Her eyes are the definition of the dark ocean. Her skin is the tannest just like Camoran's. She has the same button nose that her dad has. We named her Aurora Illine. My mother-in-law, Lydia is the baddest woman around. She ruined my wedding morning by coming to me and blames me for "stealing her son away from her". Camoran protected me from her. Camoran drove her away. We haven't seen her since.              

Aurora loves her daddy with all her heart.  When Camoran comes home from a long day from training, she goes running to him. It's adorable. She holds her arms up so he can pick her up. She definitely has my traits too.   

Camoran is relaxing in the living room and Aurora is coming out in her new nightgown that says "Quarterback's daughter" that I got her. She toddles to Camoran. He looks from his phone to Aurora. He chuckles. Aurora holds her arms up and Camoran picks her up. 

"Daddy!" 

Camoran holds Aurora tightly in his arms and he smiles big at her when she's with him. She has an effect on him. I'm so in love with Camoran. I fall in love with him Every Day of the week. He's the best father ever. 

"How's my Rory this evening?" Camoran said. 

Camera called Aurora Rory. I tried calling her that, but she said that's her special nickname from daddy. I came up with my own nickname. She has a lot of Bella in her too.

"I'm good. Daddy, can--can you tuck me in?" She said, batting her eyelashes.         

Camoran smiles and chuckles. "Yes, my Rory, baby." 

I come into the living room. Camoran holds out his free arm and I lay in his arm. He smiles at both of us. 

"I sure love my girls."  Camoran said softly, stroking my hair. 

"We love you daddy. Right, mommy?"

I looked at Aurora. I chuckled. "Right, Aurory."

"let me put the little one down and we can watch a movie." 

Aurora put her hands on Camoran's chest. She scoffs. 

"Daddy, I'm not little! I'm a big girl." 

Camoran and I look at each other and chuckle. He takes Aurora to her room and I hear "Good night Daddy!"

My heart melts when she's with him. She's a daddy's girl. I suddenly hear, "Good night, Aurora Illine Johnson. Daddy loves you with all of his heart." 

That's when my heart melted and that's when I fell deeply in love again with Camoran Johnson. He came back in the living room and started making popcorn. 

"That nightgown is adorable on her---" He said. 

I stand up and grab onto Camoran and our lips meet into a eager kiss. I stand back and look at Camoran's expression which is surprised.

"I'm sorry. I---I just fell in love with you all over again tonight. I'll let you get the popcorn started." 

Camoran grabs me by the waist and pins me against the cabinet and cups my cheek. he kisses me deeply and tenderly. His lips are soft and gentle. He lets me go. 

"I love you, Mrs. Johnson. Always and forever."  He whispered. 

"I love you too, Mr. Johnson.

This is not what I imagined for my life, but it's way better.   

                     The End for Mr. & Mrs. Johnson's story
