Miley lay in her bed. Her mind and body a lot more mature than when she spoke to her love again. It had been over 40 years since that day, since Lillian Truscott changed her world around once more. Years had flew by but never blurred the memory of that day.

Looking round her dark room lit only by the lamp on her side table she had never felt more content, happy and blissfully peaceful before in her whole life. She could look back on her life, feeling proud and thankful at how it turned out. The door to her room opened and in walked in two figures, a blonde haired blue eyed woman along with a brown haired man with bluey green eyes. They both took a seat at the side of her bed and smiled at the woman laying there. ''hey mom how you feeling?'' the man asked taking her hand in his, Mile looked at her children. They were beautiful.

''what? What is it?'' I ask as my heart ties to break out of my chest. The anxiety filling every inch of my body.
''she says she was worried…'' her eyes seem to be looking in my direction but focusing on something else. As if she's looking through me. ''she wanted to make sure you'd be ok. Have everything you always wanted''

''I'm perfect darling'' she smiled taking his hand in hers. Her hands looked so small, so fragile wrapped in his. ''how was dinner?'' her son let out a small laugh before replying ''it was fine momma, uncle Ollie cant cook as good as you but he did try''
''if by try you mean almost burn the house to the ground before ordering take out, then yes he did try'' the woman sat next to him interjected laughing.

''what did she do? Melinda? Tell me?'' I almost shout out of frustration. She seems to be taking her sweet ass time getting the information. My legs push my body up without me even realising til I was towering over the woman sitting across from me ''LILLY! WHAT DID YOU DO?'' I ask not knowing where to look.
''…she had some of her eggs frozen for you. So you could make the choice of whether you wanted to start a family, have her children.'' she says so calm that I feel a fool for getting so angry. ''wh..what?'' is all I say, my legs losing the suddenly burst of strength they had two seconds ago causing me to sit back down.
''she was going to tell you but then you started arguing and well..she never got the chance. She just wanted to make sure you had the option. Whether you take it or not is your choice. She doesn't want you to feel any pressure. She loves you and always will regardless.''

late at night,
the air was cool we snuck into the swimming pool
you dove headfirst,
I waded in the scent of chlorine upon our skin

Miley laughed at her daughters bluntness. So much like her mother. So much like Lilly. ''he is a doughnut mom'' the young woman added between giggles. ''that he is'' she agreed, her eyes becoming heavy and tired.
''would you like us to leave you to sleep?'' Miley pushed her eyes open. She wanted more time with them. Even just a couple minutes before she slept. ''no sweetie. Not yet. Gosh you are so much like your mother darling, you know that?'' the younger woman's eyes seemed to light up ''I just wish I had met her momma'' she smiled

''you mean…'' the words got caught in my throat ''..you can have the family. The children you wanted with Lilly are still possible.'' Melinda finished for me. As if I would need to make a choice. of course I want a piece of her to keep with me forever. of course I want her children.

''there is no choice. Its all I want'' I smile thinking of what our child will look like, if it will have Lilly's eyes? My hair? Excitement filled my body but it was soon replaced by guilt and sadness ''Lilly, you'll never get to see our child. You'll never get to see all that our child will do'' I sigh tears filling my eyes.

''she says 'of course I will. I'm always gonna be watching you and our child. You made me so happy and seeing you happy will continue to make me happy. You're the love of my life Miley. I'll never completely leave you.'' its Melinda talking but in my head, all I hear is the soft sweet voice of my wife.

the stars were bright,
the water clear
I felt your heat as you swam near
I held my breath, you held my hand
moving away, further from land

She hasn't ever stopped watching you, she's always with us. Remember that. And when my time comes, you'll have both of us with you'' the brunette smiles fighting with her body to stay awake abit longer. ''and you know Mikky will be here to make sure everything's ok''

Mikky aka Mikayla had been the woman to come into Mileys life several years after her meeting with Melinda. Miley waited 4 months before using Lilly's eggs and to the brunettes surprise she hadn't fallen pregnant with Lilly's child, instead it was Lilly's children as she had twins. A beautiful girl and boy. 4 years later the dark haired Latina had swept her off her feet. Mikayla had been totally understanding and with Lilly's words always fresh in her mind, Miley had let herself fall for the woman. The years they had spent together had been wonderful and the brunette would always love her but she never forgot Lilly or love like she did her first time.

the moon was full,
everything blue
the water stilled,
reflecting you

''I love you so much baby. I wont ever love anyone like I love you. You're my first. You'll always be my first'' the tears fall freely and heavily from my face. Happiness and sadness blur into one emotion. ''god you always knew how to surprise me and even after your gone your still doing so.'' suddenly I feel a soft warm feeling come over my cheek.

''she says she'll always be here for you. Always. She wont ever stop loving you'' Melinda smiles gently.

''…Lilly has crossed over'' she added and I let myself give into the uncontrollable sobs that had been waiting to burst out.

floating right here
with you next to me
gazing at stars,
we drift silently

''Melinda Lillian Truscott, Robbie Oliver Truscott, you have both made your mommas very proud. don't ever forget that ok, now you better go help uncle Oliver with the dishes. Ill see you both tomorrow'' the brunette smiles shifting slightly to a more comfortable position. ''thanks momma'' they both say before getting up and hugging their mother goodbye.

late at night, the air was cool
we snuck into the swimming pool
I went under and you followed
let's not think about tomorrow

Miley watched her children walk out. They had been the joy of her life after losing Lilly. They had done great things. Both did great at high school. Good attendance, good grades and plenty of friends. Robbie hadn't went to college, he instead rebelled, gone off and travelled for a couple years before coming back and working hard to get into the police force where he met his wife and settled down. He had 2 lovely children. Melinda on the other hand went to Yale, got all her degrees and was now a high school teacher herself. She had married her high school sweetheart much like her mother. After a year of marriage they had started there own family, eventually giving Miley 3 more grandchildren.

Miley Truscott had went on to live a happy full life. She had no regrets or complaints. As her children left she gave into her tired body and let her eye lids fall shut.

everything is perfect now.
everything is perfect now.

When the mature brunette had open her eyes they had been quickly pushed shut again by a bright light. As if the sun had risen in her room alone. Forcing her eyes to reopen. The shape of a body walk through the bright sun like light. ''hey miles'' the voice rang in her ears. So familiar. So beautiful. So prefect. ''Lilly?'' Miley pushed her body up, stepping out of the bed. Catching her reflection in the mirror across from her bed, she didn't see the woman who'd fallen asleep through exhaustion, her once mature older face gone. Instead she was a young again. The way she looked with Lilly. The way she wished to always look. ''told you I'd be waiting, didn't I?'' the blonde smiled taking her wife's hand.

everything is perfect now (I held my breath)
everything is perfect now (you held my hand)

''oh my god Lilly. I've missed you so much'' with that she wrapped her arms round the smaller blonde before pulling her into a passionate kiss. ''its time miles.'' Lilly smiled braking the kiss. ''for what?''

''for forever baby'' with that the blonde tighten her grip on her wife's hand.

everything is perfect now (moving away)
everything is perfect now (further from land)

A sudden relief washed over Miley. A feeling that everything. Everyone. Would be ok. Slowly she walked side by side with the love of her life towards the bright powerful light that had seemed to become calmer.

everything is perfect now (the stars were bright)
everything is perfect now (the water clear)

They were just reaching the light when Lilly stopped. ''I've missed you so much too baby, ready?'' with that she placed her hand across the brunettes chest. '' nervous?'' she asked feeling a rapid heart beat. Proof that they weren't dead and gone. Just moving onto a whole new part of life. ''not at all. Being near you always made my heart beat like that'' Miley smiled looking deep into the blue eyes she had missed so much.

everything is perfect now (I felt your heat)
everything is perfect now (as you swam near)

With one last kiss they both started slowly walking into the light. Together again. Forever this time. For always this time.

everything is perfect now.

hope you enjoyed. let me know please? :)
