A year.

Its been a full year since the incident. Dennis and his gang were immediately arrested and taken to prison. It was apparently Sam who told the police of Dennis' plans. He tried getting to the police quicker but Dennis got suspicious of him. He managed to get away from them and he ran to the police station.

He told them everything and by everything, I mean everything. He told them of what he did to me. They arrested him and investigated, and it proved that he was involved. He was sentenced to 7 years.

I go and visit him and Dad. I've moved on, doesn't mean I will ever forgive them fully, but I still have a soft spot for them. Always.

I've just always learned that it's better to forgive, forget and move on. Why hold a grudge when it won't do anything to help you. All it will do is bring sadness, anger and depression in your life.

I sigh as I look down at the gravestone in front of me.

In loving memory of Elijah Satten.

A loving son, brother, and friend.
You'll always be in out hearts no matter how far apart we are. Our love will fly to you each night on Angel's wings. We love and miss you.

It was a dark day when I saw it the first time. I never thought it was possible for me to cry again, but I did. I cried for my brother. He was so innocent. He never even had the heart to hurt a fly. I just couldn't believe he was gone.

He was my big brother, I looked up to him. Always have, always will.

I run my fingertips on the head of the gravestone, remembering how it felt the first time.

"I still don't know why you keep this around." Someone says from behind me. I turn around and smile at Elijah. I run over to him and give him a huge hug, to which he returns.

"We keep it around because its the day innocent Elijah passed away." I say smiling up at him, "And its the day when strong Elijah was born." He rolls his eyes but still smiles down at me.

The doctors told us it was a miracle that he survived. He lost so much blood they weren't sure he was going to even make it, but he pulled through. He's strong. He kept his promise, he didn't leave us again.

I don't even know who cried more that day, me, mom or Darron. Not one of us left that room. When he woke up I couldn't have been happier. He had to stay in hospital for another month, so he could make a full recovery and he did.

We've all been so happy, well almost all of us. Jacob, not so much.

"Hello my love." Foster says as he walks up to me. I smile and wrap my arms around his neck. He smiles and pecks my lips. I smile and peck him back. "Come on love birds! Lets go!" Darron yells from the car, we laugh but climb in and drive home.

"So is everyone coming today?" I ask them as we drive to our house. "Yeah everyone will be there. I just don't know about Jacob, I'm sure he'll be there though." Darron says as he turns on our street.

I sigh sadly as I remember how heart broken he looked when I told him my heart belonged to Foster. He's his usual self, sleeping with different girls but we all know he's not happy. He can barely look me in the eye. It hurts knowing that I caused that to happen.

"Don't worry Tori. It's going to be okay. He just needs time." Foster says as he takes my hand in his grasp. I smile at him and rest my head on his shoulder.

We pull up to the house and everyone climbs out the car. Just as I climb out I'm tackled to the ground. "Tori!"

"I think you're gaining weight Jen." I say groaning. She jumps up and glares down at me. "Girl are you calling me fat?" She asks putting her hands on her hips. "Yes, yes I am calling you fat." I say smugly as I stand up.

"Gemma! Tori's being mean to me!" Jen yells as she sees her girlfriend coming towards us. She runs to her and wraps her arms around her.

Jen met Gemma in school, she was a new student and they just immediately hit it off. They're the cutest couple I have ever seen.

"Good." She says and high fives me. I laugh at Jen's expression. "Thats it, I'm done with love!" She says exasperated and falls to the ground. Overdramatic, I think to myself as I stare down at her.

"Oh Jacobs here." She suddenly says. I jump over her and dash into the house. I spot him talking to Caleb. I run and tackle him in a hug. "You came!" I yell in his ear.

"Tori you're killing him." Caleb chuckles and pulls me off of him. He stands up and fixes his jacket. "Now a proper hug." He says and opens his arms for me. I immediately hug him and sigh happily as I feel him hug back. "Thank you for coming."

"Are you kidding? I would never miss your brother's engagement party." He pulls back and smiles down at me.

Yes Elijah and Darron are engaged. Ellie proposed to Darron by the restaurant where they went on they're first date.

I'm Ellies 'best woman', I'm so excited. Darron wanted me to be his but Ellie comvinced him to let me be his. Confusing but it works.

"I'm just glad you're looking at me again." I say to him as we go to grab something to drink. Caleb walked off when we hugged. "I'm really sorry about that Tori. It was just hard. I loved you and that rarely happens, I just don't handle rejection well. You know that. There is no good reason for you to forgive me for how badly I treated you but I'm really sorry Tori. I'm happy for you and Foster, its just still hard seeing you two together, but I'll move on."

"Thank you Jacob. I accept your apology. I'm sorry as well-"

"Tori!" I hear a voice yell from behind me. I turn around and come face to face with my cousin.

"Jamie!" I yell and rush over to her. We hug tightly. "I haven't seen you in over 5 years." I say as I pull back to look at her. Her ash blonde hair is still as bushy and frizzy as ever. She's always hated it, still does seems like it. I remember when we were younger. Always making mud pies and doing just normal toddler things.

My cousin is strong, she's been through a lot. She's someone I look up to. She's a Survivor.

"I missed you."

"Tori?" I hear Jacob say from behind me. I turn and face him, smiling. "Jacob, this is Jamie. Jamie this is Jacob."

They look at each other but don't say anything.

"Jake?"

"Jam?"

Jake? Jam? Wait, why Jam?

"Hold up, you two know each other?" I ask, looking between them. "I-I h-have t-to g-go." Jamie stutters and runs away.

"No wait, Jamie!" Jacob yells and rushs after her.

Everyone comes to stand by me as we watch them run off.

"Well this just smells of trouble." Caleb groans.

Oh how he could not be more right.

THE END...
