Stella's POV

Ten years later

"Chrissy, stop it! You're making her cry." I say as I pick Daisy, Cal and Mel's daughter up in hopes to stop her from crying. Chrissy was taking all of Daisy's toys and throwing them across the room, laughing devilishly as she did. All the kids were playing out in the backyard while we all just had fun in the living room, eating pizza and playing games. Daisy ran over to Cal's side, grabbing onto his leg and sobbing while muttering about how mean Chrissy is to her. Cal chuckled and told Daisy to go play with Colton in the playground.

Yes, we have daughters and sons now.

Cal and Mel have twins, a boy and a girl named Daisy and Danny. They're both 4 years old and love dogs. They always have a way with people and they know how to make you smile. Crying and wailing are some of their many hobbies, but so are laughing and cuddling and eating the cookie batter from the spoon.

Michael and Jamie are married and have a little boy, Mason, who is 9. Michael taught him well, and he does have a good sense of humour and an amazing attitude. In Michael's eyes that is. Mason is sort of a rebel, even at that age. You can tell he's going to be very punk, punker than his father.

Luke and I have an 8 year old named Chrissy, who seems to be a little bit too interested in Mason, and a little boy, Colton, who's 6. Chrissy is pretty much just like Mason, a little rebel who loves to pick on younger ones like Daisy and Danny. Chrissy and Mason are always together, like partners in crime. They're inseparable bestfriends and I fear that one day they will fall into the deep trap of life that is love. Colton on the other hand is just this cute little ball of sunshine that plays with mud and ate his own poop once.

About Ashton, he finally got a girl for the first time in years. He's with a girl named Lily, and they still haven't shown each other their tattoos. They seem to be happy though, and I'm almost positive they're soulmates. They don't have any children, but they still help us to care for ours.

Alex stayed with his girlfriend, Lara, for the years. He's felt that sensation you feel at 16 or 17, and he knows that his soulmate is Lara. It's almost sure, since they've stayed together for so long with little to no problems in their relationship. He hasn't asked her about it yet, and I'm sure she'd say yes and show him if only he asked. We're still close as ever and he will always be my little brother.

Valerie and Mel stayed bestfriends, and though she's not here right now, she's still here in spirit. Mel's shaded puzzle piece shows that bad things happen when you don't follow the rules of life, but still it is your choice if you want to face the consequences. She felt the burning sensation on her wrist one day at the park, when she was studying on the grass with Cal. She cried so hard, knowing her bestfriend had gone to pass. A car crashing into Val's was enough to hurt her enough. It was enough to fill Mel's heart and tattoo with despair.

Through these past ten years, times still had been tough. Just like those other times, our lives were risked and our relationships were almost broken.

Everything's alright now though, we have our families and we stay together as that group of friends we were years ago. We may be a little older, a little smarter, and a little more mature, but that doesn't stop us from being bestfriends and doing crazy stupid shit together.

I'm still with Luke, and hopefully always will be. I will never stop loving Luke, no matter how hard life tries to tear us apart. They can take everything from me, as long as I stay with Luke. Our relationship is an ongoing adventure, with it's ups and downs. It could just end any time, on any day, in any place. But until that time, I will stay by him and we will be happy with our friends and family.

Fate will never break us.

Some relationships are stronger than you think.

Some rules are meant to be broken.
