Demons (hemmings au)

Epilogue!

A/N: Hey guys, I know I said there probably wouldn't be an epilogue to this story but many people requested one and I had an idea so here it goes. Before you read though, don't send hate mail until you read the whole chapter! Don't get mad and quit reading because it all sorts it self out in the end! 

Luke's POV

10 years, 10 years it's been since El and I left this small town to go on our hastily planned adventure. It's weird, I remember it like it was just yesterday, the night she told me she would go with me being one of the happiest nights in my life, but it also feels like eternities ago that we left our home. We traveled around the United States for almost a year, just living in the car or hotel rooms, sight seeing, and enjoying our freedom. No worries, no nothing, just us. 

After a year of traveling we decided it was time to settle down, and who would have guessed that we would come back to the town we were both so kin to get away from. It just felt like home, so we were back. Now, years later I am a successful lawyer and El had two books reach number one on the New York Times Best Sellers list. We did okay. 

I turn my head to look over at the bedside table, our wedding picture in the center and I can't help but let a small smile overtake my face as I think back to that day. Ellie was stressed months leading up to the big day, wanting everything to be perfect and I have to say it ended up being wonderful. I ended up choosing Calum to be my best man, and while Mikey acted upset he shut right up when Ellie asked him to stand behind her as her maid of honor. She had friends, but none of them were as close to her as Michael had always been. Everything was perfect, the small church that we got married in, the few family and friends that showed up, her beautiful white dress, and then the week long honeymoon in the Cayman Islands. It was like a fairytale. 

I shift in my bed, reaching over to the bedside table and opening the drawer before taking out the crumbled piece of paper. I've read it so many times I pretty much know it by heart by now but I never fail to take it out in times that I am thinking of the past and reread it again. 

My Dearest Darling,

I hope the day never comes that you have to read this, but if you are it means that it happened; I am no longer beside you. I'll never be able to look at your beautiful, shining blue eyes again that still have a trace of sadness in them but they are also now filled with so much happiness, I'd like to say I have something to do with that. I'll never be able to caress your cheek, to hold your face to mine, the coolness of that lip ring that I told you to get rid of after you graduated law school, but of course you didn't listen to me (which I don't really mind). 

Enough with the sadness though, this is supposed to make you happy and encouraged to go on with your life. Luke babe, I don't want you to be sad. You've had enough sadness and heartache in your life to go around for the rest of your days in a trance, which I know you will try to do. You have people that care about you Luke, and people you need to care for, so you can't lose yourself. Just remember that I am always here in everything that you do, and will always be with you. 

When I met you, you changed me. You made me realize that there was so much more of the world than what I saw. You changed me in so many ways, and I can never thank you enough for that. I would not do anything differently, because everything I and we did ended up with us being together. You have no idea how much I love you Luke, and how much I will always love you. You were it for me, you were my everything, and that will never change. 

Now, to end this I am going to be my usual stupid self to make you laugh because as much as I wanted this note to not be sad I hate to say that it turned out pretty darn depressing. You've pretty much heard all of my pick up lines, so I guess the only thing to tell you is eat some pecan pie for me, everyday...and for Dean. Yeah I know, as much as you hate it and as much as you tried to get me hooked on something else Supernatural will always be the greatest show of all time. I love you Luke, don't ever forget that and remember you have to let me go and move on. I will see you soon, but not too soon I hope.
