Skinny Love ~ A Thomesa AU Story

Epilogue

Life hadn't been always easy when the group had separated their ways into different Colleges. They had to put their friendship at test several times. They had to break up a few more to come back together once again. They had their different lives and different personalities, but they would always come back to their friends.

That's what friendship is meant to be.

It was no different when it came to Thomas and Teresa.

They locked inside their hearts a tiny box with all their memories together, good, less good, bad. They were part of each other, and their worlds collided and they were trapped in the bliss that was being in love.

Until they decided together that having a long distance relationship was leading them nowhere.

It had been hard. There were nights when the two would just lay awake, sleepless, deep in thought, looking to the side where their phones laid on the bedside table, wondering if the other was awake so they could tell them that they missed each other, they missed them.

But they always ended up not moving.

It was a mutual decision, mainly because they didn't want to hold the other to them when they had no idea how much time they would be apart, but it was difficult nevertheless.

Teresa had become a Pediatrician. She followed her dream of taking care of people, specially children, and so she got in almost immediately, since she was smart and intelligent and had captivated everyone with just a smile.

Thomas, on his part, decided to take a gap year, which provided him time to think about what he wanted to do, but with the support of his family and friends, he came to a conclusion and became a Psychologist like he had told Teresa all those years ago.

They would still think about each other everyday, and maybe that was the reason why Minho and Newt had pulled off one where they got those two in the same place when Thomas had come home to visit them and Teresa to visit the girls.

Let's say the two of them locking eyes after years apart was enough to bring all those emotions to the surface again.

They came to terms, eventually, concluding that being apart only brought a feeling of emptiness and loneliness to them, and so they talked through the night, ending up tangled in each other's arms until the soft sunlight made its way into the room.

When they kissed, all the words left unsaid throughout those four years were completely unnecessary as their connected lips talked with their own language, and they knew they were meant to be together.

After all these years, their love never went away not a tiny fraction, if so, even got stronger, and they couldn't be happier to admit they were forever and ever in love with each other.

So, when their sixteen year old son came home with his bright blue eyes - open in realization and acceptance - ,  and rushed into the kitchen where his parents were cooking dinner, the two couldn't help the warm feeling on their chest as the words slipped out from the boy's mouth.

In that night, Thomas held Teresa a little bit more strongly, not getting enough of planting kisses to her forehead, cheeks, nose, and eventually her lips, as they giggled inside their own world. Because, eventhough their kid might not know the reason why they got so happy about the confession, Thomas and Teresa knew all too well.

"Mom, dad?" The teenager had called. "I think I might be falling in love."

And Teresa and Thomas came back to the day where all their future had started, laying on the grass as they said those same words to each other.

After all, there are only two things that can bring the most powerful feeling of happiness in this world.
To love, and to be loved.

And Thomas and Teresa were utterly, completely, powerlessly in love with one another.
