After Everything Ā Ā Ā Epilogue
REHEARSAL DINNER | the night before the wedding MATURE CONTENT | 18+ āWe are getting married tomorrow. Like tomorrow.ā Em says from her spot resting on my chest. āYeah we are, surreal huh?ā I respond. āUm yes, but Iām excited.ā āMe too, no nerves?ā āNone not with you ever.ā That makes my heart swell. āSo you arenāt going to pull a Burke and leave me at the alter?ā I ask referring to one of the many weddings on Greys. āNot at all, I want this so fucking much.ā āMe too Em.ā āI love you.ā She whispers. āI love you more.ā āHow are your vows going?ā She asks. Ugh those things, the declaration of love. Matrimony. They are coming along nicely but I just know Emās are going to be like 1000 times better than mine. āGood. Yours?ā I ask and she smirks. āIām happy, Josie loves them so I hope you do too. Because thereās still time for Jos and I to run of into the sunset.ā Thatās not the first time either of them have mentioned their happily ever afte

Time flies when you are busy, overworked and exhausted. I feel like I blinked and now itās a week out from my own wedding. Iām getting married to the love of my life in a week. I couldnāt be happier or more excited. But first, the bachelorette night courtesy of Josie my maid of honour. I knock on her apartment door, box in hand and question ready on my lips. āOh Em you look nice, did you want Josie?ā Austen asks opening the door to greet me. āThank you and yes I would like my best friend.ā āDid Kingston ask you yet?ā āYeah last night although Iām kind of sad I didnāt get a box too.ā āOh well, guess you donāt have the better best-friend.ā Thatās something we all fight over who has the better best-friendship, which duo is better. The sisters by love or brothers by choice. We donāt know. There will never to be a correct answer. Because really we are just a lucky bunch of people to be surrounded by amazing company that we get to share, live and love with.

āThatās not fair!ā I shout as Em hits me again with the water gun. She continues until I surrender and throw her over my shoulder as she laughs at me. āKingston put me down.ā āWhat, baby?ā She starts pinching my behind and I canāt reach her hand to slap it away. āStop that.ā āWell put me down now.ā I throw her in the water. She breaks the surface and her stern gazes meets mine. āNot like that.ā āYou asked for it.ā āI said put me down not toss me in the lake.ā We are up at Milesā vacation home in Cape Cod we have come the past two years as one big massive family. It has enough beds for everyone. We play games, cook together, laugh, have fun, itās a tradition I donāt see us breaking anytime soon. This is sort of our last hoorah. All together. After this we all go our separate ways. Yeah weāll stay in touch but it wonāt be the same. Unless we all live near each other again. When we leave here tomorrow we will be making the journey to New York. Sin

There are future spoilers for other couples (who will eventually have their own stories). Itās hard writing this time for K&E and not talking about where their friends lives are at. They are all so close like a massive family. So read at your own discretion. Pause reading here, if you want to read Josie and Austenās story from the beginning and not where they end up, I try keep it to a minimum, but again kind of hard since it effects King and Em directly. Itās up to you where you go from here! These chapters and this time was my favourite to write and are probably some of my best āCome on Em we are going to miss our flight if you donāt hurry up?ā Kingston shouts from the bathroom. āJosie you too. Hurry up.ā Austen adds. āEm what is taking so long?ā āJust need to finish, last chapterā¦ā āYou have time for that on the plane, now get your butt in gear. Are you packed, do you have everything?ā He says snatching my iPad from me. He pulls me into his chest. āYes

6 MONTHS LATERā¦ Graduation, baby. We finally did it. Boston Uās Class of 22! Itās been an amazing, adventurous, sweet, crazy journey. But we did. Us four girls stand hand in hand in their apartment before we finally head out to walk across the stage. After four years. All the ups and downs. Every party. Failed grade. Library study session. Coffee from Glazes. Hockey game. Sorority event. We made it through. Stronger and better than ever. We all have incredible futures ahead of us. Me as at nursing school. Josie at an internship for Vogue. Addison as a teacher at a prestigious school. Sutton at an insane PR and Marketing firm for Sports Professionals. I canāt believe we did it. I love these girls more than life itself. Without them this would have been a boring journey. We are sisters. Wherever we end up we will always have each other. āYou girls ready to go?ā Cole asks from his spot next to the door. Heās accompanied by Kingston, Austen and

Weāve enjoyed a perfect state of bliss bridging the gap between Christmas and New Years. We spent the time with Emās family. Itās important for her mental health to spend time with them and during the semester it doesnāt happen that often. So we soaked up all the time we could with them. Along with bouncing back and forth to my parents as well. Over the past year our relationship has grown to new heights. All because of the girl next to me. She was the catalyst. The fighting force. My parents thank her every time. She just smiles and says sweet words in response. But she truly has no idea how strong they feel over this. Knowing I could have ended up like him scares them the most. But more importantly it scares me. We also took time and brought Cora and Tate with us. Since the two of them are two peas in a pod. Itās adorable honestly. Seeing them get along so well is amazing. We are home now. And tonight is party night. We are getting all dressed up and heading t

Christmas is in full swing at the Hale-Cooper and Fitzgerald-James apartment. Like it looks like Santa and his 12 reindeer threw up in our apartment. There are decorations everywhere. Not that I expected anything less from Josie. I mean she makes āWinter Wonderlandā her bitch. The tree is real for god sake. Real. Like pine and woody smelling. It fills the apartment day in and out. Oh and if that isnāt enough there is about 16 Christmas soy scented candles in our apartment. Thereās bound to be 2 burning at all times in every room. The carols and music fill our speaker system in our apartment every morning 9am sharp. Then throughout the day its the alternating routine between music and movies. There are snacks always out. Candy canes. Hersheyās kisses with festive flavours. There is always a round of Pillsbury Christmas cookies in the cupboard and one in the oven. Oh and fresh ready to bake packet in the fridge. Just for safe keeping. In case we eat them all. Weāve b
