Where are they now?

A collaboration effort of me and my crew for your entertainment after the story has ended.

Harry and Emily started dating swiftly after being reunited. They are living together just outside of Manchester, and they tell me they couldn’t be happier. Harry adds that he would be happier if Emily would let him adopt a dog. She promptly says no.

Liam visits me all the time, and continues to call and check up on me constantly. He’s living somewhere in London, and loves life. He says he would like to visit Paris again, and Harry tells him he’s a madman. We’ll see what happens.

David is alive and well. I found his contact information, called him up, and started a forever friendship. Niall and I are funding his stay at a local University in France where he is learning to be a detective. He tells me he’s found the love of his life and he imagines to be just as happy as Niall and I when they tie the knot in April.

My mom and Matthew are still together. Surprisingly, I’ve come to like the guy alright. He’s taking care of my mom, and taking care of me, sometimes, and makes us all very happy. Matthew wants to add that he thinks my mother is the most amazing creature to ever exist. Okay, I’m going to pretend like that doesn’t gross me out. And Niall wants to add that he still makes very good sandwiches.

Michelle the store clerk is no longer a store clerk, but a manager at a mall. She calls me every month or so to talk, and Niall and I have planned a trip for her to come to the United States with her family- a lifelong dream of hers. She’s absolutely lovely and I can’t wait for her to come and stay with us.

Aubin is not in prison, much to everyone’s despise. But he is being trialed and is being watched very carefully. The boys have all agreed to testify in court, and I would like to. But Niall doesn’t think it would be very proactive for my PTSD. I argue that seeing him behind bars would be VERY proactive. We’ll see what happens. But I always win, Niall. Keep that in mind.

Niall and I are living somewhere in the United States- keeping to ourselves and being very happy. We do, in fact, have TWO toasters now. (Niall wanted the chrome, I wanted the blue).  We have another little dog, a garden full of flowers that I simply adore, and a library full of books-just like he promised. We share an office, which isn’t very productive, since we end up talking the entire time. But when he starts to work I like to watch his hands fly across his keyboard- eyes glossy from staring to hard at the screen. My kitchen has a perfect view of the river. You can hear the frogs at night when you fall asleep. Every morning I wake up the happiest girl in the world. I’ve gotten my first, and only, tattoo recently. Zayn helped. It’s the French word for Home on the nape of my neck near the clasp of my necklace. I still wear my necklace- a promise of our home and dreams, my bracelet- a promise to always be in love, and my ring- a promise of forever. He’s given me all I could ever want and need- and we even have a love story to go along with it.

The end.
