One Year Left To Live: A Dricki Fanfic

Epilogue

Drake got out of his car after driving for about 2 hours. He parked his car before sitting back and taking a deap breath. He undid his seatbelt before he reach for the two objects that were on the passenger seat and headed out.  He closed his car door and made sure to lock it. He was instantly hit by the cold december air. He slowly walked through the isolated area, trying to find the place he knew so well. Once he got to where he was going he just stood and looked at what was before him. He leaned down and placed one of the roses just infront of the gravestone. He sighed again before taking a seat just infront of it.

Drake: 5 years

He chuckled a little.

Drake: it's been 5 years without you nic, and it still feels like i lost you just yesterday. i guess you could say i've been progressing. more and more each day i think

He chuckled again.

Drake: i try everyday to imagine what life would be likeif you were here, but i guess i'll never know. That just gonna be another thing that both of us will never get to know. Me and the crew still stay in touch, but everyone is sort of taking their own paths now. Courtne and Noah are expecting a little one soon. Ashley has taken on her modelling and was signed to an agency just a few weeks ago and is already leaving us for paris. Abel is also progressing with his music career and im not gonna lie, he's pretty amazing.

He stopped and just thought for a second.

Drake: i guess you wanna know how i'm doing.

Again he paused.

Drake: I'm doing just fine. Its been a year and i guess you could say Alexia and I are on a prettysteady track. We're expecting a little one soon actually, she's 6 months along. A little girl. We're gonna call her onika, because we want her to be a little fighter just like you. She's due March 12th and to say i'm excited would be an understatement. Theres not much else going on really, but i guess i'm pulling through.

He felt the presense of someone behind him and he turned to find Carol stood just behind him. He stood up an gave her a small smile.

Drake: Mother-in-law. How have you been

They shared a brief embrace. Nothing had changed, they were still just as close as they had been before nicki had died and 5 years later they were still running strong.

Carol: I've been great thank you, and yourself.

Drake: I've been alright.

Carol: I still can't believe its been 5 years since we said goodbye to her

Drake: Neither can I. 

Carol: But at least we're doing what she asked for. we kept our promise

Drake: Indeed we did.

Drake now walked through the graveyard on his own. He had parted with carol a few moments ago to give her some space and alone time and he was now just walking around again trying to find another place that he knew too well. He walked over to this gravestone and placed the rose just infront of it like he had done for nickis. He wiped the tear that had began its trail down his cheek.

Drake: It's been almost 2 years now... And i miss you more than ever

He spent a few more minutes infront of the gravestone before deciding it was time to leave and make his way back to Alexis who was waiting for him back at their home which was a two hour drive away. The second gravestone was one that would never fail to upset him. She was the most important person left for him after Nicki's death and he had sadly lost her in a fatal car accident just over a year ago. He blamed himself everyday, but time can not be rewinded and there was nothing he could do. The love of his life had been lost 5 years ago and His mother had left him not too long later, but he was staying strond and facing the world... Stronger than he ever thought he'd be able to.
