Originally I had this last piece for fans only last year, but I deleted it and reposted it today thinking everyone deserved the chance to see it, so here it is. 

Dedicated to all my fans and readers. :) <3

Epilogue

Donna's P.O.V.

In the morning I felt empty. I did not know what I was missing but I knew I was missing something. I stood up, ambled to the bathroom and stared at the mirror. My eyes were pink and my face felt wet, like if tears had streamed down my face. Was I crying last night? I put on some earrings and was about to take off the silver necklace with a silver wings charm, but it matched so I left it on. I wondered for a while how I got the necklace but just shrugged it off. It was probably a gift from my mom or something since it has my name engraved in it. I ignored this empty feeling, decided that it could just be my mind reminding me I forgot to do my homework or something. After using the restroom, showering, and dressing up I walked out of my room and into the kitchen. On a plate there was already a nice, toasted bagel with cream cheese, and orange juice on the side waiting for me. I sat down taking a seat next to the kitchen counter and just then Andrew came in. He was still in his pajamas, I noticed, as he took the seat on my left.

He grinned lazily at me. "Hey sleepy. We sure danced a lot at that club last night. I mean you knocked out as soon as we came home."

I giggled. "Oh...So that's what we did? That's right. We came home so exhausted though."

He laughed. "I know. I don't know about you but I never want to go back there."

"Agreed." We ate our breakfast, and set out to leave for our schools. Every now and then I would gaze at my silver necklace with the silver wings charm but ignore the weird feeling I got from it. Although sometimes I would stare at it for a while and wonder what it was I was missing. Catheline, Judy, Seida, Esperanza, and Rose had to take me out of my trance every single time. I even had a strange instinct, you could say, to keep it. It was almost like a deep part of me did not ever want to separate itself from the necklace. 

Years later...

Angelo's P.O.V.

I mourned for her, and for her love, for days. Then for years. Now I felt lonelier than ever. I missed her laugh, having her with me, and her smile. I guess I made the right choice though. She won't have to miss me anymore and she will not feel different in any way since she has no memory of me. I visited her once more, using my undetectable shield so the same story would not repeat itself. I watched her sleeping peacefully. She was slightly older now, maybe two or three years than before. I guess she cut it shorter because now her dark brown hair was shoulder-length, her arms and legs were longer, and perhaps she tanned a little by the looks of it. I yearned to see those light brown eyes almost amber. Donna was still so graceful and beautiful. I saw the necklace around her neck and had the sudden urge to be with her. I placed one hand on the bed, leaning in to kiss her when I felt a little part of my mind warn me this wasn't such a good idea. I forced myself to draw back, soaring right out of her apartment. I became furious with myself. It's been years and I continue to hurt inside. It is all my fault since I was the one who chose to erase her memory for her safety and happiness, and yet knowing the consequences I keep acting like this. She has clearly moved on and I should too. I knew better though. I knew I was going to miss her for the rest of my eternal and immortal life. Love is just unfair in that way.

I sailed through the city, distracting myself with crimes and incidents in the city, which I plan to do forever. I would protect this city until the end of time, but I will also never stop loving her.
