*Taylors POV*It's finally the day that I will tie the knot with Corey, it's been four years since we've graduated high school. Corey has become the owner of a car shop and I work as an English teacher. We went to our post-secondaries which were only a five minute drive from each other, and because of that we lived in the same apartment as well.
Kara is now a nurse working at a local hospital where as Jake decide to become a child and youth care worker. I respect his career choice as he can now work with youth that may have endured what he had in his lifetime, so that he can help them. Their relationship has still been going strong, with a few bumps in the road but they always come through- just like Corey and I do.
Now I stand in my white dress. As I'm staring back at my reflection in the body length mirror I smile to myself. Corey had proposed to me once we had both graduated from University, he had taken me to the place we had sat under the stars the night we proclaimed our love for each other. He had pulled out a ring and asked me to marry him. I had readily agreed and in that moment everything was perfect. As I reminisce, I notice Kara walk up behind me and smile.
"Wow, Tay you're beautiful. Corey is a very lucky man."
"Thanks Kara" I smile.
"Well, don't want to keep him waiting do you? Hurry, let's go! Everyone is dying to see you."
"Alright, alright. Let's go" I say, nervously.
"Don't worry Tay, it'll go smoothly."
"I know, I'm just anxious."
"Oh I know Tay." She laughs.
With that, I make my way towards the Church entrance.
*Corey's POV*
My nerves are bundled and I stand at the alter anxiously waiting for my beautiful wife to be to walk through the doors.
The music starts to play, and the doors burst open. My breath gets caught in my lungs and my eyes bulge out of their sockets as I stare at Taylor in shock. She's absolutely stunning, and to think that in just a few minutes she will become my wife, tears start to well up in my eyes, but I try hard not to cry. She looks up and gives me a small heart warming smile - which I return before she walks up to the alter across from me.
We say our vows and share a sweet kiss before running back down the aisle.
*3 years later*
Taylor and I bought a house and now have a son and daughter named Eli (A/N: Supposed to be pronounced as E-Lie) and Ella. They've grown to be four and three years old. Eli has Taylor's features, he's got blue eyes and and blonde hair where as Ella has a darker shade of blonde hair, but green eyes like me.
"Daddy!" Shouts Ella as she runs towards me.
"Hi princess" I smile, and plant a kiss on her cheek.
"Eli took my Barbie" she says pouting. She's always been a daddy's girl.
"Alright let's go get it back!"
"There" She says pointing at Eli who is in Taylor's lap grasping the Barbie tightly in his fist.
"Eli, give your sister her Barbie" Taylor says softly.
"Fine." He says grumpily and hands it over. Eli kisses her cheek and mumbles a sorry as he runs back to Taylor.
"Aww you're so sweet!" Taylor says gushing.
I walk over to her with Ella in one arm and use the other arm to wrap around Taylor's shoulders before giving her a kiss on her forehead.
"I love you" I say.
"I love you too." Taylor says.
With that I wonder how my life became so beautiful.
*******************************************
It's officially over! I named the kids based off of a weird misunderstanding. Basically when I first listened to If this was a movie by Taylor Swift I always thought she was singing "come back, come back, come back to me Eli" turns out she was saying "me - like."Anyways it's a beautiful song.
I'm sorry that the Epilogue is short I didn't really know what to add, but maybe in the future if I feel the need to extend it I will.
I actually completed this story February of 2016 but randomly decided to edit it :) some of it has changed but the story is relatively the same!
Thanks for reading! :) Leave feedback if you'd like.
