50; Epilogue

a/n : Guys, before I start , I just want to say how great this journey was. This is my third 5sos fanfic, 1st on Calum and my first long fanfic. 50 chapters y'all! Through this story, I've learned so much about tolerance, and shit how mysterious love works! Anywho, let's go on and end this story with a bang! I don't think this epilogue has the bang effect, let me rephrase that. 

Let's go on and end this story with a smile on our faces, feels in our hearts and hope to find who's truly ours and have our own love story :) 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While sitting on the infamous red couch in the library, Shay is reading one of her new books that she just bought from her favourite bookstore, Borders. Life has taken a turn for this little family, Shay started her new job in UCLA as a teaching assistant the week after of the graduation and not long after that, within two months or so, Shay and Calum said their vows in their very own backyard. The couple didn't want a huge wedding in a hotel and invite the media to show cast their wedding, they invited the important ones, the other members of 5 Seconds of Summer, Rachel and both of their families which flew in from Sydney to celebrate the joyous day. After spending honeymoon/ family vacation back in Sydney where Shay finally had the chance to be with her family again, Calum had to go on tour and Shay and Tommy fly back to LA to continue on with their lives.

Till this day, it has been 3 months of calling, skype-ing and even texting between this newly wedded couple. Speaking of couples, Rachel and Ashton has rekindled their relationship and the both of them are determined to tolerate one another and trust each other. Isn't that what relationships are all about anyways?

A knock is heard on the library door, and Shay turn her head to find out who it is. "Oh, Rach. Come on in, I'm just having a nice Saturday read". Rachel constantly been flying to LA recently, on business she said. She walks towards Shay and take a seat beside her on the couch.

"I'm just dropping by to check on you and Tommy, where is he anyways?", I point to the window and she motions herself to the window and see Tommy swims in the pool with his friends. Shay has been letting his friends come over to play with him so that he won't be asking so much of his daddy and begging Calum constantly to come home. "He looks happy", she said and Shay respond, "I want him to remain that way, forever". She chuckles to herself and ask how is Rachel doing, "you're done with business here, are you flying back? I would want you to bring some goodies for my parents".

She return to sitting beside Shay and she's smiling as if she just won a million bucks, "yeah, I'm going back to Sydney in a couple of days and when I fly here again, I won't be going back".

Shay furrows her eyebrows, trying to understand what her cousin is saying, "what do you mean you won't be going back?". She bit her lip and tell Shay another clue hoping that she could guess it, "I've been scouting for condo's here".

Shay puts her hand over her mouth, "you're moving here?!". Rachel nods her head and the both of them wrap their hands around each other, and as Rachel pulls away, she pats her forehead, "my company is opening an office here all of the sudden and I jumped to the gun and asked to be transferred here", she explains. 

"Ashton would love this news!", Shay exclaims. "Yeah, I hope so. I hope I'm not moving too fast, you know, cause we are trying to take things slow and I'm not getting any younger..", Rachel rambles but Shay cut her off, "don't you worry about that. Of course, it's scary to take the first step, you're risking your heart here! You think I made the decision to be with Calum in a day? I took my sweet time, months to think it over! Feeling the pain and regret day after day, but finally, I took the risk of putting my heart on the line cause he's worth the risk. I don't even know how are things going to be in 10 years time, but right now, being his wife has been wonderful. Too wonderful, it's unimaginable".
