Writing My Way Into Your Heart // Alex Bowman

✧･ﾟ: * Epilogue *:･ﾟ✧

Six Months Later

"I think this is the last of them!" Alex placed the last box into the moving truck and turned to look at me. "I can't believe this is happening."

"I know!" I glanced back at my apartment building, it's been my home for the past 5 years and now, I'm moving in with my boyfriend, who, I still can't believe is mine.

"Who knew that writing dirty fanfiction would bring us together?" Alex wrapped his arms around my center, placing his head on my shoulder and kissing my cheek.

"Who knew you would be so kinky and into that?" I kissed him back and he just laughed. "Which, by the way, my wrists still hurt from you tying me up last night."

"Poor baby," he mocked, grabbing my wrist and kissing it where I had a little red mark. "Guess that means we can't use these then?" Alex produced a pair of handcuffs and my vision went a little fuzzy with the idea of being cuffed to the bedpost.

"I did not say that." He laughed and put them back into his pocket, "if fact, I think we need to see if these work." I moved away from him, heading towards the passenger side of the truck. 

"I think you're right." He gloated, knowing there was no doubt I would say no to them.

With one more glance over my shoulder, I said goodbye to my past.   My future climbed into the driver's seat, turning the truck on and looking at me with such love in his eyes.

"C'mon, Ella Jean, let's spend the rest of our lives together."

"I love you so much." I hopped up, placing a kiss on his lips.

"I love you, even more."

Rosalie stood in victory lane, her eyes filled with tears as the man she so desperate loved knelt before her, holding a black box with a giant diamond ring.

"I couldn't do this without you, Rose; I couldn't win these races and this championship without you. You've been my light in the midst of my darkness, my rock, my anchor, my everything. I want to spend the rest of my life with you, Rose, I love you so much. Will you marry me?"

Rosalie shook her head yes, unable to speak as the single three letter word got lost in her throat. None of that mattered though, she knew she wanted to spend the rest of her life with Alex, the man she fell in love with the moment she laid eyes on him.

The crowd erupted, Alex's teammates began celebrating, beer and champagne flying everywhere, celebrating the teams success on winning the championship and our engagement.

"I love you so much," I whispered the moment we could get away.

"I love you, even more." He cooed, kissing her for all to see.

"I need to tell you something." Alex looked at her with a smile on her face. He noticed she was holding her stomach and his heart stopped beating. "You're not?" He smiled brightly and she shook her head yes.

"I'm going to be a father!" He yelled, picking up Rosalie and spinning her around. "God, how did I get so lucky?" He pressed his forehead to Rose's, taking in the moment. "I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you."

"I can't wait, either, Master Bowman." Alex beamed down at Rose before capturing her lips in his, sealing the promise of forever.

Authors Note: Ella Jean here! This is so crazy. I never expected in my wildest dreams that I would write a story like this, let alone it becoming a massive hit. I want to thank every single person who took their time out of their day to read this, to comment, and to recommend it to their friends. It means so much to me, more than I can ever tell.

As a little life update: Writing this story has also lead me to the love of my life, someone I never expected to meet, let alone fall in love with it.

I'm not one to boast, but the next time you see Alex's girlfriend standing next to him on pit road, just know she has every intention of keeping that boy happy, especially when he begs for more dirty fanfiction written about him ;)

Seriously though, who knew you could write your way into someone's heart? Because I didn't, but I'm certainly glad that I did, because my life wouldn't be complete without him. 

~ THE END ~

A/N:  I wish I had the words to say how I'm feeling right now.  I got the idea for this story about 4 years ago when Kyle Larson was doing a livestream, signing autographs and taking questions from fans.  I thought to myself, how would he react to finding out there's fanfiction written about him?  In reality, I knew the answer, but in the fantasy world? Endless opportunities.  

I wrote a few chapters and posted them, so proud of myself for even getting that far.  Then some personal stuff happened in my life and I ended up taking down the story to be long forgotten and never touched again.

Then enter Alex Bowman.  I don't even know where he came from.  I've gotten a few oneshot requests for him and I happily wrote those stories, but now?  He seems to be a new muse of mine and I don't think many people are complaining? (If you are, you shouldn't be here reading this story anyways)

Finishing this story is bringing on so many emotions for me and I'm just so damn proud of myself for not giving up on this idea, even though it did take me 4 years to complete.

I know I'm rambling and honestly, if you're still reading this, I owe you a kiss. 

Thank you to anyone who's read this, even those ballers who remembered this when it was Larson's story.  I appreciate each and every one of you like you wouldn't believe.  You've really made me love writing again and I can't thank everyone enough for that. <3
