Mystery Hunt (Complete - Under Major Editing)

Epilogue

7 years later...

"That's too much gel, Clive!", Dylan shouts at him as he keeps on styling his hair.

"Just a bit more..." he bites his lip as he keeps working way too hard.

"You should really stop now," Dylan says, worriedly. He didn't want to look like a joker on his wedding.

"He is right. You should stop." David says, casually munching on the almonds. He wasn't here for anything else but food.

"You are one to talk." Clive scoffs and then turns Dylan to the mirror to show him his masterpiece, "Ta-da!" Clive claps his hands excitedly.

Dylan frowns after looking at himself. No way he would let James see him like that.

"Yeah, no. I am washing my hair." And he rushes to the bathroom to take off the filthy gel.

David stumbles from his chair, laughing. "You should just stick to anchoring."

Clive empties the whole almond bowl over his head as he stops laughing.

"Daddy!" Anna comes running straight into David's arms.

"AAH! My princess is here to save me. Save me from Clive!" David asks cutely to their 5-year-old daughter.

"Daddy, Logan uncle is panicking, something about James uncle." Anna pouts.

It then clicks.

They have been so focused on Dylan but it was James's wedding too!

"No, no, let me just jump from here and we'll see if the wedding continues or no!' James, who is standing close to the window, is threatening Logan.

"Come on James! Are you kidding me now? The wedding is in 2 hours!" Logan is so done with this kid. People have cold-feet before their wedding. James seems to have totally lost his mind.

"No, no. Let him continue." David chuckles when he arrives to the room. Clive and Anna are still with Dylan. "I wanna see how it ends."

Logan looks at him in disbelief. "What are you even saying?"

"This is what my students do in their classes. Whenever I announce a test, they just flee. But if you tell them to do the same thing that they are doing, that is running away, they wouldn't actually do it. It's a proven fact." David sits down smugly.

"Yeah, yeah. Why don't you tell the scheme to everyone?" Logan whispers because James was listening.

"They are supposed to listen! That's how it will work." David shrugs looking at James who was now a bit calm. James takes a deep sigh and sits down in front of the mirror. He touches his suit, looks at his well-groomed hair and sighs again.

"What if I don't make him happy?" James sighs.

"Okay, we've been over this an hour ago. Dylan loves you and you make him happy. Period." Logan pats his back.

"But...what if...." James starts but is interrupted by Dylan.

"Can I talk to him?" Dylan peeks into his room.

"Yes please!" David pushes him in and gets Logan out of the room. "Let's give them some privacy."

"Are you okay?" Dylan asks James, walking towards him. James stood there frozen because he couldn't take his eyes off of him.

"I......" he stutters, "I.....you....look....amazing..." James just looks at his amazing small face which glows in the sun. A blush creeps across Dylan's cheek as he still walks towards him.
