ONE YEAR LATER

I adjust my scarf to cover the scars on my neck, and straighten out my dress. I can't believe it, my parents are getting re-married. Even though they were still technically married, they wanted things to seem official. I was the maid of honour, wearing a coral dress and a floral scarf. No one else is wearing scarves but mom let me, because I'm still very self-conscious about the scars on my neck. They're not as visible as before but you can still read the words "thrawlers revenge" carved out in them.

"You ready to go out, Lex?" Brent holds out the crook of his arm. As the best man, he and I get to walk together down the aisle. I slip my hand into his arm and we start our long strides to the arch set up in our yard. There aren't that many people here, my parents just wanted a small ceremony.

The ceremony is beautiful, watching my parents getting reunited is one of the happiest things I'll ever witness. It's just amazing to think that one and a half years ago I didn't even know my dad. I thought he was dead. Now it seems like he was never gone.

The reception starts immediately after the service, with homemade croc-pots full of child and soup set out on long folding tables under the apple tree.

Brent and I set up our music, using clothes pins to hold the pairs in place, not that we don't already know the song off by heart. A special coral extension cord (bought just to fit with the theme) stretched across the yard so that we can plug in Brent's keyboard.

"This is a song me and Brent made," I start our rehearsed lines, not looking at the small audience we have.

"To celebrate the re-marriage of our parents." Brent finishes like one of those corny elementary assemblies. Whatever, he insisted.

I start the opening chords of the song, and soon after Brent joins me as our voices wind together once again.

A/N
I can't believe that it's the end and I know the epilogue was short but I didn't know what else to write... Now for some confessions....

I'll admit I was going to kill Lex but then I decided not to because she's too important to her whole family.
