This is the final chapter. 

To all my lovely and supportive readers, thank you so much for taking the time to read this story, for always leaving such nice comments and for giving me all your support along the way! I hope you've all enjoyed following the lives of Bea Ashby, the rest of the Ashby/Mayhew family and Justin Bieber as much as I've enjoyed writing about them. 

I'm really going to miss these characters, but I'm very excited to expand my writing with new story ideas and fanfics to come in the future.

Bea Ashby:

-One year later-

It's unbelievable to think back to how Justin and I first met. 

I had genuinely believed the situation at hand and even though his past wasn't all a lie, it still shocked me to believe that him and my dad were able to pull something like that off. Justin pulled off abnormal behaviour and made me truly believe that he didn't sleep like sleeping in a bed where in reality sleeping out in the cold made him miss his bed even more.  

However the story of his mother, being abandoned on the island, the carvings on his skin, and getting the family he never had was all real. 

It was odd to know that Mr Lawrence, who we were told was Justin's instructor and tutor, was actually a lawyer undercover at the time of the situation. It explained all of my dad's secret meetings between the two and not to mention the fact that dad always had Justin hidden in his office throughout the crazy process. 

"Beatrice, are you certain you have everything?" A voice asks me from downstairs, bringing me out of my thoughts. I was staring down at a picture of Justin I had on my phone from before I left. With one last glance at the photo, I pocket my phone into pocket of my jean jacket and head downstairs.

"Yes, I'm sure." I assure my mother, Isla Edwards, who was currently setting my luggage at her front door. 

"Just checking, darling." She smiles before disappearing to the kitchen. Sighing, I take one last look around the place. 

The past two summers I've spent my time here in England with her. After the everything that has happened, I decided I didn't want to live a life with any regrets about not knowing my mother. That, and the fact that the little 9 year old within me deserved to get to know her biological mother after everything she's been through. 

We both know neither of us can fully makeup for our lost time, but we said we would try. Isla asked me to come stay with her in England after a few months of phone calls every week. I agreed and next thing I know, I'm in England for two months getting to know Isla Edwards. 

I spent last Christmas with her as well and got to meet her boyfriend, Greg. I made a decision to return again this summer and it was great, but my trip comes to an end today. I couldn't help but feel nervous about going back home. For some reason the idea of seeing Justin after two months made me nervous.

We've barely had any time to talk this summer considering Justin was on his path to getting his life back together. He's been taking courses at a college in New York City and he's moved out of our house in Manhattan and into an apartment in Brooklyn. He's only 50 minutes away, but it seems to far for me considering his room was once right across my door. 

Considering the whole time difference and the fact that we were both in different countries at the moment, doing different things, it was hard to find the right time to talk to each other. However,  despite all of that, both of us made sure to make time to talk to one another even if that meant sacrificing a little bit of much needed sleep.
