OH MY GOSH GUYS, THIS IS IT.

THIS IS THE END.

It's been a struggle, you don't know how many times I've accidently written Noelle Carter and slapped myself like THEY'RE NOT TOGETHER YET, JEEZ, GET IT TOGETHER. I'm sorry, I can't help it.

I'm not going to lie to you, it was tough letting go of Noelle and Soren (I'll even miss Mallory a tiny bit).

The point is, I loved these characters.

I guess that's kind of why I decided not to write an epilogue.

It's not for lack of trying though.

Honestly, I did so many drafts for an epilogue but I just couldn't bring myself to publish.

For me, Noelle and Soren's story ends here.

But, if you really want to know what happened after:

---> Okay, so Noelle and Soren did end up getting married. It wasn't much, and it happened a couple of months after Noelle's twenty second birthday. It was literally a couple of 'I do's', and a 'you may now hug the bride', pretty basic stuff.

---> Noelle and Soren had three kids: two boys, and one girl [Elle, Alec and Papriko] (Okay, I was kidding about the last one, their oldest son is actually called Julian). Surprisingly, Elle is super protective over the other two, any potential love interests are ruthlessly interrogated before dating her brothers. Also, Elle was named after Noelle in a way. Basically, Elle became Noelle's nickname and when little Elle was born, they hadn't thought of any names, they're spontaneous like that. Long story short, Soren was talking to Noelle, called her Elle, and the baby gurgles, so bingo, that's the name. 

---> Noelle and Soren didn't have a perfect love story. They broke up at least ten times, two of which were caused by intense jealousy from Soren's side. Fun fact: Alec and Julian? Yeah, they were named after those two guys Soren got jealous about. Surprisingly, Soren picked the names, he swears that if it wasn't for those break ups, they never would have reached that stage where they both have mutual respect, trust and understanding for each other. So, Alec and Julian were named after the men that helped Noelle and Soren somehow fall even deeper in love with each other.

---> Mallory King. As much as I hate to say it, Mallory actually did quite well for herself. She ended up becoming a lawyer (a really good one, actually). She actually did apologize to Noelle and Soren. Never got married. Claims she married her job.

---> Mallory never got back to being best friends with Soren or anything, in fact, her sister? Rita King. She ended up being Alec's Godmother. Surprisingly Rita's quite nice. She bakes cookies every Friday for her favourite godchild and co.

---> Kai and Keziah didn't make it, unfortunately. I'm sorry guys, I loved them too but their relationship was kind of toxic. The thing is, Keziah was broken, but Kai, he liked her like that. They were just stuck, at that one stage, never progressing or developing until they just had enough. At the time they were engaged, but they called it off and parted as friends. Fun Fact: Keziah had a fling with Mallory shortly after the engagement was called off. They thought it was going okay, but really they just loved the familiarity.

---> Kai is in a committed relationship with his therapist. After the engagement was broken off, he got into a lot of trouble with drugs and needed therapy, that's where he met Anne. Their relationship is a lot healthier and they are actively working to fix each other. Turns out, Kai never really loved Keziah (sad I know, if it makes you feel any better, she didn't love him either) they were in a sort of mutually exclusive take, take, take relationship.

---> Keziah and Noelle sort out their issues (they had quite a few). Eventually, after a good five years apart, they reconnected by chance (met each other at a grocery store while Noelle attempted to get ten percent knocked off her one hundred pack of popsicles (pregnancy cravings and all that)). Keziah is actually Elle's godmother [yay for friendship!]

And that's it.

I hope you enjoyed this book, thank you so much for sticking with it xxxx

P.S: Noelle did eventually get into that Physics classroom. It was tough, but she made it guys.
