Forever Young

25. Epilogue: Life As We Know It

Chapter 25: The Epilogue

-3 months later-

~McKinlee's P.O.V.~

"That was amazing! Better than the first time we saw it!" Lily and Brooke beamed, as we formed a small group hug.

"Thank you!" I smiled with tears rolling down my checks.

I turned to look at Austin, he gave me a warm smile and kissed my cheek.

"You look stunning." He whispered in my ear, causing me to blush. The crowd must have noticed cause they went wild.

I turned to stare deep into his eyes.

"I love you." He said as if reading my mind.

"I love you." I smiled, as we leaned in and kissed. Once we had kissed the paparazzi blew up with clicks and screams. People were practically

fighting to get shots of Austin and I.

The environment here was amazing. We were all at the world wide premiere of Austin and I's movie! They loved the show so much it was turned into a movie!

There were cameras and people everywhere! Everywhere I turned someone was saying mine or Austin's name, trying to get pictures of us. I looked down at my beautiful dress and the red carpet beneath my feet and thought. "I truly am living my dream."

--McKinlee and Austin eventually moved out of the beach house, but they didn't move far. Only further into the heart of LA. They both continued to pursue their dreams in acting and have stared in over 36 episodes of their new #1 show "Living the Dream". They achieved all of this in just one year! Now, McKinlee and Austin have finally taken a break from acting and they are now happily traveling the world together.--

~Brooklyn's P.O.V.~

-5 months after the premiere-

"Can you believe this view?" I asked Will.

"No, but it can't be any better than mine right now." He said looking deep into my eyes.

"Oh stop it." I laughed, as he wrapped his arms around me from behind.

Will and I stood there on our balcony looking at the view of the ocean from our very own home. We decided to finally move out of the beach house right after Austin and Kinlee did. We decided to leave the beach house for Ty and Lily. After all they needed the extra space.

"Brooklyn, you know what?" Will asked as I turned to face him.

"What?" I asked preparing myself. There's no telling what he's about to say.

"I have the most beautiful fiancé in the world." He winked.

"Oh do you? I've heard a lot about this girl... she must be a keeper." I winked.

"You have no idea." He smirked, closing the space between us with our lips.

Looking back now, moving to California was the best decision I ever made.

--Brooklyn and Will stayed in LA enjoying their lives together. Will now owns his Dads franchise and makes a killing off of it. Brooke, however, still does photography, but not like she used to. Now, she has gone on to college and is currently working on her law school degree! Will and Brooke got married on the beach where they had their first date. They are both happier than ever and may think about adding a new member to the family very soon!--

-2 years later-

~Lily's P.O.V.~

"Ty! Hurry! Babe! Come in here!" I exclaimed.

"What?!" He gasped, "Did something happen?!"

"Yes, something happened! Come over here!" I squealed. I took his hand and placed it on my stomach.

Instantly, Ty's face lit up. I don't think I've ever seen him smile so big. He was so happy. With tears forming in our eyes, we stood there in the kitchen feeling the kicks from our baby girl.

"She's strong, like her mother." Ty beamed.

I just laughed and smiled wiping away Ty's tears not even caring as mine escaped from my eyes.

"I still can't believe there's a baby in there." Ty said, now wiping away my tears.

"Not just any baby, but this is our baby." I smiled.

Ty took my hand and locked it with his, as it still rested on my stomach.

"Are you sure we are ready for this?" I asked as a million things began to race through my mind.

"Sweetheart," Ty said, leading me to the couch. We both sat down, but then he pulled me onto his lap, lightly stroking my hair.

"I can honestly say, I've never been more sure of anything before in my life."

The happy tears began to resurface in my eyes with what Ty had just said.

"But what if-"

"Lily, I'm not saying we are going to be perfect. Or that we are going to know everything there is to know, because we aren't. But what I do know is that we will figure it out and do this together." Ty finished causing my tears to flow.

"Do you see this?" He asked, pointing at my wedding ring on my left hand.

"I gave you this as a symbol to show that I love you and we will be together forever no matter what. Through sickness and in health. For richer and for poor. We will be together. Always.

I leaned in and softly kissed the lips of my husband and the future father of our baby girl.

~As you go through life you experience lots of things. At birth, how to cry. As a toddler how to walk. When you go to school you learn how to read and write. In high school you have popularity, bullying and maybe even experience your first crush. Then once you've graduated you can either go to college or jump right into living your life. As you take that leap into the world of your own you will experience a lot! But there will be one thing you must bear in mind: You only have one life to live so why not live it Forever Young?~
