AHHHH FINAL CHAPTER! Sad… I love this story and y'all who read/review but nothing lasts forever. God I hate that saying no matter how true it is.

I also hate this stupid playlist I made on YouTube. I hit shuffle but it isn't shuffling the songs. Also it's skipping and repeating songs. It played Rain three times in a row (but I do like it anyway) and it skipped Wake Up Call… Sometimes technology confuses me.

SugarQueen8490 – ROFLMFAO! Literally. That made me laugh out loud, fall off my chair, knock the laptop onto the (thankfully) soft carpet, and ask WHY you want him to record that? You KNOW how he spends his free time. But I see your point in how it could have educational value in the hopefully distant future.

Me: *slaps Ian*

Ian: Not again…

Me: That was for asking her the wrong questions. *kicks where is counts* you know what that was for, filthy Lucian.

ToriTurtle13 – I did ;) thanks. That just changed the whole freaking chapter in a good way (thanks cuz I was stuck).

ThaliaGrace1 – I was planning something similar actually. Very similar but slightly different. Don't worry. I wouldn't add that part for no reason ;)

Now who knows that she ran into Ian? Not much suspense there. But congrats to Evanescence456 for being creative! I completely forgot about the teachers!

I don't own anything. I said it eleven times before I shouldn't have to say it again.

HOLY FREAK! Oh shoot… gosh dang… I just realized I'm horribly behind of some of my co-author stories… all but one actually and that's only cuz it's Eva's turn for RaaNL.

Ian's POV

I was going to my locker to get books for my next class before the hallway got crowded and I run right into someone. Amy to be exact.

"H-hi, Ian…" she stuttered quietly. I looked down to see those beautiful jade eyes looking up at me. My heart hurt seeing her again. I still couldn't figure out what I'd done.

"Hello, lo- umm… Amy." dang it was hard not calling her love, I'd gotten so used to it. But now it'd just be awkward.

I thought I saw her smile for a second but it was gone so fast I couldn't be sure.

After a minute of awkward silence I decided to break it.

"So…" Okay it actually made it worse but I couldn't think of anything else to say. Our relationship was back to where it started. No, it was worse. Hiding the fact that I was madly in love with her because I was too scared to say anything was where we started. Now it was the same but weirder because she knew and acted like she didn't.

"So…" she repeated. I noticed she had dark circles under her eyes like she hadn't slept much. I hadn't either. Natalie had to pour ice water on my face to wake me up that morning and threaten me with her oh-so-wonderful dart gun to get me to go to school. Now that I think about it, if I'd let her shoot me I wouldn't have been able to go.

More silence.

"W-well this is a-a-awkward…" Amy noted, blushing and looking at the floor. I smiled to myself. I'm not exactly sure why but I always found her shyness really cute.

"Very." I agreed.

"I-I should g-go…"

"Oh… okay. It was… nice talking to you…" that is if nice means unbearably awkward that is.

"Y-you too…" and she walked off. I watched her leave. I sighed sadly. Is this how she felt in Korea? I wondered. That made me feel even worse.

Amy's POV

The rest of the day I wondered how Ian would react to the letter. After he got the coin he'd probably reread the letter and laugh, just like old Ian. Then he'd use it as blackmail and for the rest of my life.

Ian and Natalie didn't come over after school. If I hadn't known any better I'd think that Dan wasn't too happy about that.

Homework took longer than usual to do. I kept wondering what Ian would think of my note. I think some small, lovesick, confused part of me was hoping he would like me back.

I was just about to finish when the doorbell rang. I answered it but no one was there. I closed the door, thinking I imagined it and standing right behind me was my Lucian ninja friend.

"Elizabeth! How the freak did you get in here?" I asked.

"Vampyre ninja!" she said. I rolled my eyes.

"You aren't a Vampyre and Dan would say you're not a ninja. You just watch too much TV."*

"Yeah whatever." she rolled her eyes. She looked around and gave me a confused look "It's weird not hearing Dan yelling at Natalie for beating him. Normally that's the first thing I hear coming into your house."

I nodded. It was weird. "I suppose once the awkwardness between Ian and I dies a bit Natalie and Dan will probably still have their weird frenemy relationship. But for now they get that it's… weird."

"So what did Ian think of the note? Did he say anything?"

"No and it's been bugging me all day!"

"Maybe he didn't see it? Or he just didn't care enough to talk to you about it."

I rolled my eyes "Wow thanks that makes me feel so much better." I said sarcastically.

"Or he actually likes you." she tried.

I had to laugh at that.

Ian's POV (again)

I read Amy's note again. I didn't get it.

You don't really love me.

Was she serious? Had I not told her a million times how much she meant to me?

You're under a magic spell (a REAL spell not like you said yesterday). The fountain I took coins – yours, Jonah's and Hamilton's – from put a spell on you guys to make you fall in love with me. If you don't believe me take the coin. You'll know.

I put the coin in my hand again. Nothing. If it was a spell shouldn't I stop loving her now? Stop feeling so... heartbroken? Stop wishing she was here now? It didn't make sense anyway. I fell for her long before I put the coin in that fountain.

I really didn't want to do this but it seemed wrong and selfish to keep you under a spell and from finding someone you really love.

Well that wasn't right. I did find someone I really love even without the coin. Amy.

Also if I kept you under the spell forever there's a chance that our future son would go crazy and kill us and try to take over the world (or maybe that only happens in books).

I laughed. Only Amy would think that way.

Crap. I should so not have told you that because you'll hold it over my head forever. Oh well you were bound to know eventually anyway.

I probably would have. If she'd said that two years ago.

PS Your wish is supposed to come true too.

I sighed. I suppose Amy didn't think this through all the way.

Back to Amy's POV

Elizabeth left around five since it was fall it'd been getting darker earlier so the sun was almost gone. I watched out the window as it went down all the way and the stars come out. It would have been peaceful if Dan hadn't had his video game volume up so high.

The doorbell rang around six. Fiske was working in his office and everyone else had their volumes up so high –Nellie's iPod and Dan's video games – that I think I was the only one to hear it.

I answered the door to see Ian standing there with a nervous little smile on his face and his hands behind his back.

We kind of stood there for a moment. It wasn't an awkward moment this time though.

Ian cleared his throat and gestured for me to come outside. I hesitated but stepped out, closing the door behind me.

He took his hands from behind his back and handed me a red tulip** I wondered if he realized what the flower symbolized or if it was random.

"I got your note." he told me.

I nodded. I didn't know what to say.

"I got the coin too. Nothing happened."

I was confused. "What?"

"I didn't feel any different."

"Really? Why?" I asked.

"Amy, my love," Ian murmured, reaching out and brushed my hair behind my ear "remember when I told you that I've loved you for a long time? I've been in love with you since Korea two years ago. That was long before I put a coin in that fountain."

I smiled. "I didn't think about that… so did your wish come true?"

Ian nodded.

"What was is it?" I asked.

"I wished for the courage to tell you how much you mean to me." he replied.

I looked at him, grinning. I hugged him. "The Ian Kabra, forced to ask for help from a fountain to get a girl." I teased.

He pulled back from my hug. "You're hardly just any girl, love."

I laughed. "I never thought I'd say this but I missed that stupid nickname." I pulled him back to me.

"I missed it too, love." he agreed.

"Don't overdo it."

"You love it. You know you love it." he said, playfully.

"I do." I replied, pulling him closer. He wrapped his arms around me too. I felt nice to be back on his arms.

Before I knew it we were kissing. When we pulled apart I noticed I'd dropped the flower. Ian picked it up for me.

"Thanks." I said. "It's really pretty."

"It symbolizes-"

"Undying love." we finished together.

Just then Dan opened the door. "Amy what is taking so- oh. Umm… Hi, Ian?" Dan looked at me. Should he be here?

Yes he's fine.

"Well… I should go…" Dan backed out, shutting the door.

"HEY NELLIE GUESS WHO'S BACK?" I heard Dan yell.

We laughed.

"I'm sure Dan will like Natalie back to play video games with." I stated.

"Natalie as well. Apparently I'm not enough of a challenge because I, and I quote, 'suck at the game'."

"Dan says the same thing to me. I don't care for it anyway."

The wind blew. I realized how cold it was tonight. Ian somehow knew that I was cold and put his jacket around me.

"That's cliché." I pointed out.

He shrugged. "You were cold. What was I supposed to do?"

"We can go inside?" I suggested, opening the door.

When we got inside Ian and I sat on the couch just like we did before. We watched a movie for a while but I started to fall asleep. I was too dang comfortable.

"Ian, let's play a game before I fall asleep." I suggested.

He gave me a questioning look. "What kind of game?"

"It's called Any Three Questions.*~* We each ask three questions and the other has to answer honestly." I explained.

"Okay. You go first."

"Umm… What is the worst thing you've ever done?"

"Left you in Korea" he answered instantly.

"No, really Ian."

"That's the worst thing I ever did in my opinion. I still haven't forgiven myself. My turn." he thought for a minute and smirked "What's the biggest secret in the Madrigal branch?"

"Something that you'll never know." I answered.

"That isn't fair!"

"It's the truth." I shrugged "You just wasted a question. My turn. Where do you see yourself in ten years?"

Ian thought for a second. "I see myself married to you. We have children, good jobs and you're just as beautiful as the day I fell for you. If one day we got married, would you want kids and how many?" he asked.

I nodded. "I love kids! Probably three or four at least."

Ian looked a little uncomfortable. Guess he's not a kid guy.

"Anyway, last question. What do you like best about me?" I asked.

Ian was silent for a while. "I have no idea." He confessed. "Everything."

"That isn't an answer."

"Your personality. You're the sweetest thing on Earth but you're also stubborn and tough. I like that." he told me.

"Good. You're stuck with it."

"Now… what are three word you never thought you'd hear me say?"

You know how it the beginning I said 'It's a date were the words I never thought Ian would say to me? I take that back.

"I love you." I answered.

Ian looked shocked. "Ironic that those are the three words I'll probably say the most."

I smiled. "I love you too, Ian."

Kinda rushed and crappy but I was sorta stuck at the end.

Sorry it took long. I had to sneak the laptop up here (which sucked cuz I hate the dark) and type fast cuz it's dying. There will be and epilogue tomorrow I promise.

*She does. Especially My Babysitter's a Vampire which is where I got that quote. Secretly I think it's cuz she likes the guy who plays Benny.

**In hAppYpuPPy's Percy Finally Gets the Courage I learned that a red tulip represents undying love and I was like "Aww perfect!"

*~*From The Lost Hero Piper and her dad played this.

Sorry not enough power yet for an interview. Add later.
