50 years later (Mia and Tanner are 91)
Mia's POV

Well, this is it.

This is it, meaning that I'm dead, or in this case, dying.

Both me and Tanner are dead and dying.

It's been an amazing life, it really has, I couldn't ask for a better one. But, now it's time that I say goodbye, and come to terms that I'm dying.

I'm 91 for gods sake, I'm weak, I'm sick, and there's nothing I can do.

Same thing goes with Tanner, and every part of me is happy that he's going with me. I'm happy because if one of dies, and the other doesn't, whoever is alive will be depressed and dying, and that's not a good thing.

I've always been afraid of dying, ever since I was a little girl, but now it's different. I'm sick, and I'd rather die, then be alive and be in constant pain, I mean, wouldn't you?

Both me and Tanner are in our house, we are in our bed together, waiting for something, anything. Nevaeh, Ana, and Alex are here too, and so are their spouses. Nevaeh has 4 kids, 4 boys, that must be a handful. Ana, she got married to a surgeon, and he's really good. They have two kids, twins actually, both boy and girl, how ironic? And Alex, he got married to an amazing guy, and they adopted a little girl, and they're amazing fathers. Their kids are all at school, it's early in the morning. They all come over to be with us when we go, which might be soon.

As minutes past, I find it harder to keep my eyes open "T-tanner" I said weakly "Yes love" He said breathily "Is it hard for you to keep your eyes open?" "Yeah" "Glad I'm not the only one" Nevaeh and Ana came into the room with wet wash cloths "Thought you could use these" Nevaeh came over to me, while Ana went to Tanner "How are you guys doing?" Ana asked "As good as we can be" Ana and Nevaeh shared a worried look "What time is it?" Tanner asked "11:03" Nevaeh answered "What time does the kids get out of school "They all are coming over at 3" I nodded my head, and gently rested my head on Tanner's shoulder.

A few hours later

Everyone is here now, and they're all piled into our room. It's time.

Me and Tanner both are finding it hard to breathe "N-Nevaeh" Nevaeh looked at me, and sat down next to me "Yes mom" "Can you sing?" Nevaeh nodded "Can you sing to us before we leave?" Nevaeh's eyes started to tear up, and she nods "What do you want me to sing?" "A-anything"

Speak of the devil
Look who just walked into the room
The guilted and faded
Notion of someone I once knew.
All the perfect moments are wrong
All the precious pieces are gone
Everything that mattered is just
A city of dust
Covering both of us
Did you hide yourself away?
I can't see you anymore
Did you eclipse another day?
I used to wake up to the color of your soul
Did you hide yourself away?
Are you living through the ghost?
Did you finally find a place
Above the shadows so the world will never know?
The world will never know you like I do
So many silent sorrows
You never hear from again
And now that you've lost tomorrow
Is yesterday still a friend?
All the bridges we built were burned
Not a single lesson was learned
Everything that mattered is just
A city of dust
Covering both of us
Did you hide yourself away?
I can't see you anymore
Did you eclipse another day?
I used to wake up to the color of your soul
Did you hide yourself away?
Are you living through the ghost?
Did you finally find a place
Above the shadows so the world will never know?
The world will never know you like I do
Like I still do
Did you hide yourself away?
I can't see you anymore
Did you eclipse another day?
I used to wake up to the color of your soul
Did you hide yourself away?
Are you living through the ghost?
Did you finally find a place
Above the shadows so the world will never know?
The world will never know you

After she stopped singing, almost everyone was crying, Tanner spoke up "N-no crying, not y-yet. We're still alive" I laughed weakly "I love you all so much" I said.

As me and Tanner were nearing to the end, everyone was saying there goodbyes. Last one to say there goodbyes was Nevaeh "Hey mom, hi dad" "Hi" We both said Back "I'm gonna miss you guys so much. You guys raised me" "We raised you well" Tanner said "Yeah, you did. I can't believe you're actually going, I mean I knew you were sick, but I thought we had more time" I put my hand on her cheek "It's okay, you don't want us to be in pain right?" "I might've been a bitchy teenager, and said stupid stuff, but I don't want you to be in pain" "Good, at least you don't hate us" We all chuckled quietly "Can me and your father be alone" Nevaeh nodded and gave us both a hug.

Me and Tanner were now alone, and I could feel myself drifting away "T-tanner. Can you s-sing you ar-re my sunshine?" Tanner nodded and grabbed my hand.

You are my sunshine
My only sunshine
You make me happy
When skies are gray
You'll never know how,
How much I love you, so please
Don't take that away.

"Promise me I'll see you in heaven?"

"I promise"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now here we are.

In heaven, remember all of the things that happened in our life.

I know it's a lot to take in that we've been dead the whole time, but makes the story, a lot more worth remembering.

I promise.

•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

Well, that's the end.

I hope you all enjoyed the little plot twist at the end.

So if you don't understand the plot twist, well basically Mia and Tanner have been telling the story of their life from heaven, they've been dead the whole time, but they've been telling us about their life before they died. And bam, here you go.

I really want to thank all of you for reading my story, and supporting me through all of this. This story wouldn't be a story without you guys.

This story is the longest Tanner Fox story, and was the most read, but it ain't anymore, but I'm okay with that, as long as you guys enjoyed this story.

I've met many people on here, and they've became good friends, so gigglebox01 bossbrianna5 all_dry_21 and basically anyone who has commented, voted, and read my story gets a shoutout, and it makes me so happy that there are so many people that it'll take me an hour to find all of your accounts.

I am making a book with all_dry_21 , well actually she's making the book, so she should get the credit, but we both decided to make it together. It'll be on her account soon, and I think you all will love it!

I am continuing all of my stories, and I'm making another one on Colby Brock. Go check out my Mikey Manfs book because I'm going to spend some time on that one so that they'll be lots of chapters for you to enjoy!

I love you all so much, so thank you for everything. Peace out.

Love,
Mia Fox, Tanner Fox, Nevaeh Fox, Ana Fox, and Alex Fox. 😊❤️😊❤️😊❤️😊❤️
