All Summer Long

Epilogue Part 1

Okay, this is how it's gonna go down. So many events and things happen and my mind is about to blow up. Sooooo, I'm gonna name the events and then I'm gonna write.

So, they moved to California. They get settled and whatever. Daniel moves in with Nate. Blah blah blah. They have a HUGE thanksgiving dinner with the gang (Edward, Ivory, Nate, Daniel, Mike, Addy, Grandma, Grandpa, Mrs. Chance, Mr. Chance, Mrs. Clare, Mr. Clare, Mr. Cole, Mrs. Cole and Mrs. Hanser.) They have another thanks giving dinner for all the children at the orphanage too! Then, we have Ivory's birthday (This is in third person:)

"So, what do you want to do for your birthday?" Layla asked pouring Ivory some orange juice.

"I don't know," Ivory said running her hands through her hair, "Just, hang out." Layla rolled her eyes.

"You do that everyday," Layla whined, "You don't want to do anything special?"

"Mother," Ivory groaned, "It isn't even my birthday until tomorrow, and I promised Edward I'd help him repaint the kid's play room today."

"Okay, whatever," Layla said grinning, "You do that."

"Thank you," Ivory said gulping down the juice. She hurried up to her room and put on some shorts and a random T-shirt. She pulled her hair into a high pony and then continued to force her converse high tops on. She bounded down the stairs a few minutes later.

"Bye mom and dad!" She called slamming the door.

"Where is she going now?" Mark asked kissing his wife's forehead.

"To help Edward paint, or something," Layla said. Mark rolled his eyes.

"She's obsessed with that boy," Mark grumbled sitting down. Layla grinned.

"Yes, yes she is," she said.

After hours and hours of painting walls, Ivory's hand were stained green along with everything on her.

"Wow," Mrs. Hanser said, "You guys did a lovely job, I love the tree. And aw, look at the squirrel." The theme for the room was woods. So Edward and Ivory painted everything green and then drew in trees, birds, squirrels, and other woodland creatures.

"Oh, and what's that?" Mrs. Hanser pointed to a medium sized squirrel...Or was it a dog?

"That is a raccoon ma'am," Ivory said as dignified as she could, "I failed."

"It's not a complete fail," Edward said.

"Yeah, whatever," Ivory said. Mrs. Hanser laughed.

"Why don't you guys go tot he beach and clean up," she said winked. So, they walked to the beach. They got a few strange looks from people. I mean, it's not everyday you see two kids walking around soaked in green paint.

When they made it, hardly anyone was there. They turned to the right and walked some until they reach two large rocks. This is what they called Jumping Rock because it was the perfect jumping place.

"Alright," Edward said, "On three."

"I'm so scared," Ivory said grinning. Edward grinned. He quickly wrapped his arms around her waist and jumped off the rocks. They went splashing in. The sunk way way deep. Ivory slowly opened her eyes, the salt water stinging her eyes. Edward's eyes were already opened and he grinned at her. Ivory would have rolled her eyes, but she needed air. They swam up and gasped for air.

"You didn't need to do that," Ivory said breathlessly, "I would of jumped."

"Yeah, but I enjoyed this more," Edward said grinning boyishly.
