The battle is over. The laws have been changed. Different generations will know be able to love. That freshman can date the sophomore, junior, or even a senior. College girlfriends and boyfriends that left their partner in high school can still be together. Everything was for the best. Everything was better. Emma and Jose risked it all for this change. The country came together for them. This is exactly how they wanted it.

Their quick romance turned into the greatest fight since World War 5. Everything, everything would be how they wanted it. They had more power in Sweetener than RealN governs.

They continued their relationship. Jose graduated this same year, as did Emma. Their actions changed the world and their lives forever.

Jose applied to every college in the area, and found himself in love with the law and wanted to change more of it to be better for the further generations. He got into every law school that he applied to. They all wanted the man who changed the world. Each college offered him a scholarship too.

As for Emma, Hope was her everything. Their little doggie daughter helped Emma choose her path. Emma dug deeper into the Animal Science field. She found her heart beating faster when with animals, including Jose. With this, the youngest graduate from Universal, she applied to Veterinary Schools. She was accepted to almost all of them. But she didn't care, after looking into colleges, her favorite wanted her, with a scholarship.

Later that fall, Emma would be attending Redville Veterinary School. It was only a few miles south of Sweetener. Jose would be attending Dressfield Law School, a couple towns north of Sweetener.

They seen each other a little less but were still in love, the truest of love.

They've been together for about a year now, and on the anniversary of their first kiss, on that Christmas day, Roxanna and David threw them the biggest Christmas party ever!

Then Jose turned 19. It was their second Valentine's day together. Other holidays passed by. Till Emma's 18th birthday.

On August 15th, Emma turned 18. Her mother was released from rehab. She was allowed to visit her father now. She threw a homecoming party for her mom. And Jose got her another dog, a son for them to share, Hope's boyfriend. They named him Henry. Henry was a little older than Hope. And in the matter of months, they heard the pitter-patter of little paws. Hope gave birth to a litter of 3.

Emma's expertise in animal science gave her the best tips for Hope and the puppies.

Four years later, on Emma's college graduation, the best thing happened. Jose had graduated the previous weekend.

When Emma was accepting her diploma, Jose had set up for the principal to announce. Jose walked onto stage and grabbed a mic.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry to interrupt the ceremony but I'd like to make an announcement. Emma," said Jose smiling on stage looking at the crowd, then to her. "I loved you since the moment I lied eyes on you. We got closer throughout the best school year of my life. We've been throw a lot, we changed the world, and you're my world. Our darling dogs are happy to have a human mom like you. I'm happy to have you as my girlfriend, but that's not enough."

Jose paused and looked into the crowd, then to the principal. Finally he looked at Emma, and her bright smiling face with her cap and gown. He grabbed her hand and kissed it.

He let go of her hand and reached into his pocket, "Emma Jones," he said as he got on one knee and the crowd erupted with awe. Emma fought back her tears. "Emma Jones, will you do me the honor in becoming my wife?" asked Jose pulling out a diamond ring.

The crows erupted with cheers, Emma started to cry and shook her head yes, "a billion times yes, yes, yes, Jose Fuller!"

He slipped the ring on her finger and said through the microphone, "she said yes!"

The principal rushed them off stage and countined the last few diplomas he had to hand out.

6 months later, wedding bells were rung. The theme was fall, as for it was that season. The groomsmen were Emma's two eldest brothers and David. The bridesmaids were Roxy, Madison, and Jessica. David and Roxy stood in their honorous places. Hope and Henry pulled a little wagon with their pups in it. They were the flower pup and ring dog.

Even though Isaiah Cole should be in prison, Emma and Jose's role in town got him released for this special day. Though Emma never knew her father well, but both her parents gave her away that November to her new husband.

Emma wore an ivory, lace, a-line gown with a v-neckline and back. Her hair was pulled into a loose braid and had baby's breathe through it. Her bouquet was made of sunflowers, red roses, and more baby's breathe. Jose was dressed in the most expensive tux their money could buy. He had an burgundy shade tie under his suit. The bridesmaids wore high-low dresses that were a burgundy. Jose's groomsmen wore yellow ties instead of burgundy.

They honeymooned in Disneyland, a place Emma had always wanted to go. They were gone for a week while Roxy watched the pups.

It was December 31st, Jose's birthday. It was a cold, and steamy night. After their new year's kiss, things got out of hand as Emma announced she was pregnant four weeks later. Hope and Henry would get a human sister or brother.

On her 12th week, at an appointment, the doctor told Emma and Jose they were expecting twins. The news left them on edge. Twins! Not one baby, two! Emma was so excited, Jose was a little scared but couldn't wait for to meet them.

On the 19th week, they found out the sex of the babies through a gender reveal party that Roxy threw for Emma. A baby girl and boy were on their way.

Midday of September 13th, Emma Fuller was bursting and in labor and about welcome twins into the world. At 1:58 PM, their son came into the world followed by his twin sister at 2 o'clock. Emma and Jose Fuller welcomed their twins, Thomas and Taylor Fuller, into the world.

David and Madison finally got married too, after a continuous on-off relationship. They eloped in Las Vegas a couple months ago. Roxy was off in college and finally met the one. He had blue eyes and brown hair. Roxanna met Freddie Macklin. They married six months after meeting. By this point, Madison was expecting her first child, her daughter.

A couple years after the twins were born, Roxy announcing to Emma she would be a godmother. Roxy was pregnant with her first son. Roxy was already the godmother to Taylor and Tommy. Roxy named her son, Michael. Madison and David decided on the name of Rachael for their first daughter.

Around the twins 5th birthday, Emma told her family and friends the third child was on it's way, and this time it was only one baby. And on May 12th, Emma welcomed her youngest daughter, Trinity Fuller.

*Many, Many years later*

Emma and Jose were at Trinity's graduation while holding Taylor's son, August. Surrounded by their greatest friends, all the change they had made in the past was for the moment they lived in now. Holding their grandson, by their godchildren, and best friends, Emma and Jose had truly made the change for the greater good. This is exactly how they wanted it all those years ago.
