This is the last installment of this story, and unless it's requested I won't write a sequel. Even if if I do, it won't be for a while. But enough about that. Here's the epilogue!

Andy's POV

We didn't want our wedding to be traditional, so we didn't make it any regular wedding. We invited all our best friends, and a few... extra.

We got married on our last gig of our tour in 2017. The fans cheered and cried, and Jinxx did the ceremony. Juliet was there with her boyfriend. He's really good for her, he hangs off of every word she says. I'm really happy she got someone she deserved.

In 2018, there was finally a mother willing to let us adopt her child. Margaret Rose Purdy-Biersack was born on October 9th, 2019. Surprisingly, the mother had twins and was willing to let us have both of them. Celeste Grace Purdy-Biersack was born only a minute after Margaret.

When they were five they didn't want to be princesses, they said they were going to be rock stars. That Halloween, we dresses up with them as members of KISS.

The years went past. Celeste and Margaret grew up before our eyes. Celeste got a girlfriend in sophomore year who broke her heart in senior year. Margaret married a boy who loved her so much it was painfully obvious. Celeste was the one who became a rocker, and eventually married a girl from her band the same way Ashley and I got married.

Ashley and I grew old together. We fought, sure, but made up. As the years went past we just grew more in love. He died two years ago, at 86 years old. I wasn't really sad, because I knew I was meeting him soon. He had a peaceful death.

Today I will die. I've been in a hospital on hospice for a little over six months. I just know that today is the day.

Juliet and her husband, the boyfriend from my wedding, died a few years ago when visiting relatives. Their plane crashed. Jake and CC both died, Jake 6 years ago, CC 3 years ago. Jinxx died in his sleep just earlier this year. Matt died young, at fifty three. All my friends are dead.

Celesre and her wife visited me yesterday. They're so cute, and I'm glad I got to see them happy together. Margaret has spent a lot of time with me recently. I think she can tell I'm going to die soon too. I told her to leave earlier today, and see her husband. No child should have to see their parents die.

I'm ready to go.

It seems that at those words the universe agrees, and my heart minister slows. I can feel myself fading. I look at the camera in the corner if my room. "I've had a great story." I say in my old voice. I cough before continuing.

"Really I have. But every story has to end. I've always had something for the dramatics. Every book has a last page, and this is mine. This story, my life, is over. So, good bye. I love you all I'm leaving behind." I say. I feel my life fade away more and more in a minute. My heart slows a lot more. I can almost hear Ashley and all my friends calling for me to join them. Soon I will.

"The end."
