Selena: Hello.
Taylor: Heya, everyone!
Selena: ...talk about major greeting differences.
Taylor: Don't mind me. I'm hyper due to eating a brownie. :D
Selena: O.o Who eats brownies in the mornings other than me?
Taylor: MEEEE! :D
Selena: ...don't mind my sister. She's been like this ever since she returned from a two-week long camp. It was torture. D:
Taylor: *shudders* Please, don't bring up that Hades of a "camping trip". It was INHUMANE.
Selena: You're just mad you spent two weeks without Jarter, your sisters, and TS and SG. ANYWAYS, before you argue, this is our first story together! :D
Taylor: Yeah! :D Perfect timing, too, since our namesakes just did their first performance together. Px
Selena: LINK IS IN OUR PROFILE! IT IS AWESOMEEEEEEEEE. But anyways, if you don't like this couple, then simply don't review.
Taylor: Other than that, if you do enjoy Jarter, read on! :)
Selena: So please ignore our rant and READ ON! REVIEW AT THE END! :D
Taylor: Enjoy! :D

Carter Kane, 26, looked at his kids playing, smiling. He sipped on his sahlab and wondered when would his wife be ready with dinner.
Carter's smile widened. Hiswife. 6 years married to her, and he still couldn't quite believe it.
Their relationship was unexpected. Everyone expected him to end up with another girl, who, even if he did love her, was not meant for him.
So he and his wife continued their relationship, with a few bumps here and there - wouldn't be a relationship without them. One of those bumps, though, was a hole he almost couldn't dig himself out of. Almost.
He cheated on her. With her best friend.
It wasn't on purpose. He just - he just couldn't help it. She was hurting, and he had no idea what to do, so he just kissed her. His wife caught him, and she broke up with him. After being emo!Carter, breaking her window three times, and a Taylor Swift concert, she finally got together with him again. But their happiness was short-lived.
During the war, his wife died.
She died saving both her little sister and boyfriend. The worst part?
She knew she was going to die during the war, and she had told Carter. And he swore he wouldn't let her. But she did anyways. And before she did, she gave Carter one last kiss before tons of rock landed on top of her.
You can say that after that, he was physcoovergirlfriend'sdeath!Carter. He killed every demon in sight, blinded with tears and rage and the image of her face burned in his mind. He let his anger out on our least favorite snake, Apophis, causing the end of the war.
Two years. Two years he was emo!Carter. No one could make him happy for long periods of time. His sister tried convincing Anubis to let her go, but being the stubborn god he was, he didn't. So life went on.
He became the pharaoh of the House of Life and was betrothed to the girl whom he had cheated with on his wife. On his wedding day, he was shocked to to find his supposedly dead wife standing up, saying "I object" when the preacher said, "Speak now or forever hold your peace." She had taken out her guitar and started to sing Speak Now by her favorite artist, Taylor Swift.
He didn't marry the girl. Instead, he walked down the aisle towards his wife, whispered, "I missed you, cherie" and smashed his lips against hers. He ended up marrying his wife instead of the other girl, and the act turned her into Queen of the House of Life.
"Daddy, dinner's ready." Looking down, he saw his youngest and only daughter, 3-year-old Stella Kane, staring at him with wide brown eyes.
Carter smiled and picked her up, heading to the kitchen. Smiling behind his wife's back, he put a finger on top of his mouth to Stella, and let her down quietly. Stella nodded and skipped towards her mother.
"Daddy coming soon," she piped. Her mother nodded and put her in her high chair. Carter sneaked up behind his wife and covered her eyes.
"Guess who?" he whispered in her ear.
She smiled. "The best husband in the world by the name of Carter Kane."
"You guessed it." His arms wrapped themselves around her waist from behind as he kissed her cheek. Their son, 5-year-old Charlie Kane, made a disgusted face and covered his bright blue eyes. His wife laughed and whispered, "Later, Carter."
After dinner and the kids were put to bed, 4-year-old Aaron Kane attached himself to his mother's leg, making Carter remember Snow, the penguin that used to be his wife's pet before she died. After that, Snow committed suicide.
"I don't want nightmares," he whimpered.
"And you won't get them," his mother said gently. After 5 minutes of persuading, Carter and his wife finally were able to be in peace in their soundproof walls without their son.
As soon as they were both showered and dressed, Carter crawled into the bed next to his wife. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her close. He whispered in her ear, "I love you, Jaz."
Jasmine "Jaz" Kane, née Anderson, 26, smiled at him. "I love you too, Carter."
Carter smiled back and nuzzled her neck.
Yes, his wife was Jaz, the healer. And he liked it.
After a few minutes, Jaz was sound asleep. After staring at her sleep, he fell asleep himself.
And went down memory lane.
