Epilogue: emerald eyes & surprises

rewritten epilogue

- You know what you've done but you keep coming back, force it on the weak ones who
Keep letting you do what you do

you are someone I will forever appreciate. someone that has not only captured my heart, but has kept it safe from everything bad. you have treated me better than anyone in this entire universe put together. you seem to bare your soul only to me. I will, and always love you for the rest of my life.

Today Cassie had called me and told me that I had a very important opening for the Agora Gallery today. She told me there were lots of important artist coming by to see my paintings since they've heard about me and wanted to get an actual look at my work. I was beyond thrilled, the new experience of being a well known artist sending excitement through my veins.

Harry and I have been working on the whole distance thing. These past few months he's visited at least six times and would stay for a few weeks each time. It was more than enough to bare with until I was to go back home. I honestly missed him. Not being able to wake up to his angelic face every morning was painful and made me felt slightly alone and cold.

I missed his warm hugs and the way he'd hold my hand. I missed how he'd stare into my eyes until I agreed on doing something out of my comfort zone. The crazy bastard knew how to deal with me. He's been like this since the beginning and I was probably the most bitchiest human being ever but he still tried.

More than greatful for that.

Carter and I have been in contact and he had visited me twice, and the second time he finally brought the mystery man that he was madly in love with. Surprisingly it was Mike and truthfully I never thought I'd see the day. Mike never showed signs of being gay but neither did Carter so I suppose it was a match made in heaven.

I had to get ready for the showing unfortunately, my anxiety kicking in, in the worst time possibly. I took a quick shower and threw on a flowy light beige dress that came to my knees and wore some black heels with my hair down and some light make up.

I was more than pleased with the way I looked and left the flat I was staying in momentarily for the time being, and got a cab and made my way there ahead of time before anyone showed up. The large building was displayed magnificently as usual and I stepped inside to see Cassie giving all the workers instructions on what to do. It was sort of a deja vu moment because of how Mike and I used to do the same thing; now only he does and Harry does his best to keep it in track.

Nevertheless of anything, I needed to push my thoughts of back home and Harry away for the time being because I needed all my undivided attention on this moment.

Cassie sees me and her bright eyes shine as she smiles, pulling me into a brief hug, and greeting me.

"You look lovely, babe, people will start arriving soon, but do me a huge favor, I want you to stay in my office until everyone comes in, just stay put. I don't want you stressed."

"Oh, are you sure? You don't need any help with anything right?" I ask her with a smile.

She shakes her head with a grin. "No, no just go in and sit down, when people start arriving I'll send in Jill to let you know," nodding I tell her thank you and walk into her office, sitting down and letting out a long sigh. I was extremely nervous for this. I didn't know what these artists would think about any of my work. And on top of that I have to make a huge presentation about my artwork and why I paint. It was worth it all but I still felt overdo.

The wait was slightly long, I'd pick at my nails and let my mind wonder off to certain things. It made me sort of sad because I would love to share these type of moments with my family and my only true best friend. I'd most of all would've wanted to spent this moment with Harry. To show him where all of my heart goes to.
