A couple people are confused, about what I don't know, so I just wanted to add a little note here in case. This is the epilogue and there's an time jump. I figured that was obviously from the fact that Jessie is older now, and I mention a laptop/x-box. In public the two say they are brother and sister since they're so close in age but that's cause they're vampires, Jessie still sees Amethyst as his mother figure. (He turned in 2002 when he turned 21)
-2018-
"Hey Ma!" Amethyst looked up from her laptop. She was outside a fast-food place on the boardwalk, seated at an outdoor table.
"Jessie, I told you not to call me that in public," she whispered as the 21 year old sat down. "You're supposed to be my brother in public. You're three years older than me."
"Only because I was smart and waited until I was of legal drinking age," Jessie said with a smirk. Amethyst rolled her eyes.
"It doesn't matter, alcohol doesn't even affect us."
"I know," he groaned "Do you know how much I have to drink just to get buzzed?" He sighed and Amethyst chuckled. "Hey where's da-" Amethyst gave him a look. "Dwayne and the guys?" Amethyst shrugged as she looked back down at her laptop.
"I dunno," Amethyst said. "Probably getting something to eat." Amethyst looked at Jessie. "Did you eat yet?"
"Yes mom," Jessie said as he rolled his eyes and chuckled at the look she gave him. "Hey, you know, you're supposed to be 45 by now." Amethyst glared at him.
"Says the 33 year old," Amethyst muttered. Jessie frowned.
"Touché," He said. Amethyst took a sip of her soda. "Well, I'll see you back home," Jessie said getting up. "By the way, next week Paul and I are going to a concert," he said before he turned to leave.
"And you didn't invite me?" Amethyst asked. Jessie turned around. "I like the exact same music you two do," she pointed out.
"Well yeah but... male bonding," Jessie said with a shrug.
"Well, have fun doing whatever you're doing," Amethyst said looking down at her laptop. "Tell Paul I'll kick his ass if anything happens to my little prince." Amethyst smirked when Jessie's eyes widened and he looked around.
"Mom," Jessie hissed. He looked over at a small group of girls who walked by. He waved with a small smile and a nervous chuckle as they passed before turning back to Amethyst. "Can you not say stuff like that in public?"
"Well, I am your moth-" Jessie's eyes widened and he covered her mouth.
"Ha! Ha! Ha! Funny," He said through clenched teeth. He lowered his voice to a whisper. "I'll try to remember not to call you mom in public, okay, I'm sorry. It's a habit." Amethyst smirked as he removed his hand. Jessie let out a sigh. "I'll see you back home."
"See ya," Amethyst called as he walked away, running a hand through his short hair.

Later that night, Amethyst climbed down into the cave and went over to her bed to put her laptop away.
"Hey Pidge!" Marko called as he came over. He landed on the bed and smiled at her. He had much shorter hair but it was still very curly.
"Sup Marko?"
"I'm bored," he whined. "Paul broke my Xbox controller."
"So use his."
"I can't find his."
"Then use mine or Jessie's," Amethyst said with a chuckle.
"And face Jessie's wraith for touching his Xbox controller? I like being undead thank you."
"Hey, better yet make Paul find his," Amethyst said as she sat on the bed.
"I've tried that," Marko said with a sigh. "He's too lazy." Amethyst rolled her eyes.
"I'll buy you another one."
"You don't have to do that," he said shaking his head.
"I will and I'll make Paul find his."
"Thanks Pidge. You're the best." He sat up and kissed her cheek before he got up. They heard loud music and saw Paul coming into the cave with big headphones on. He still had long hair but it was a bit shorter, and neater, coming down to his shoulders. He also had slight bangs that he would constantly brush back with his hand. He was nodding his head to the music as he came out into view. Amethyst got up and walked up to him. She took off his headphones and 'Fight for your right to party' was blasting. Amethyst rolled her eyes and he grinned before turning it off.
"Hey Amy." He kissed her cheek. "Sup babe."
"Go find your Xbox controller," she said.
"Why?"
"So you won't have to use and possibly break Marko's new one."
"You got a new one?" Paul asked Marko.
"Not yet, I still have to go get it," Amethyst said. "Now start looking," Amethyst commanded as she pointed in the direction of the gaming area the two boys had set up. (About five years prior the group had bought an installed many extension cords to get electricity and wifi in the cave.) Paul groaned but walked over and started looking. Amethyst heard a deep chuckle and looked over to see Dwayne on the couch with a book. Amethyst smiled. "Hey." She walked over.
"Hey," he said. Dwayne had kept his hair the same length but had it pulled back into a pony tail most days.
"Didn't see you over here," Amethyst said sitting down next to him. She leaned against him. "Whacha readin?"
"A Game of Thrones," he answered. Amethyst nodded.
"Well I'll let you get back to it," she said leaning up to kiss his cheek. He turned his head and kissing her lips. She smiled shyly.
"I'd enjoy the company," he offered.
"Okay." She leaned against him and he put his arm around her.

Jessie came into the cave about an hour later and went straight to the Xbox and started playing GTA V. Paul still hadn't found his controller and Marko snickered as the blond continued to search. Another hour went by and everyone was getting ready for bed.
"Has anyone seen David?" Amethyst asked as she walked to her bed. The boys all shook their heads or shrugged.
"He should be back soon," Dwayne said.
"Don't worry," Marko said. Jessie turned off the Xbox and stood up.
"Well, G'night Ma, night Dad., Jessie said before walking deeper into the cave. Dwayne chuckled and walked over to Amethyst.
"Goodnight honey," he joked.
"Goodnight dear," she replied with a smile and a giggle. He kissed her forehead before going deeper into the cave with the others. Amethyst started to change. She was just about to pull her short nightgown on over her head when arms wrapped around her waist. Amethyst jumped. "David," she whined. "Don't do that." She looked back to see him smirking at her. He chuckled and kissed her neck before he turned her around to kiss her. She slid her hand into his short and spiky hair and returned the kiss before she pulled away. "You couldn't have let me get dressed first. I'm half naked."
"I've see you half-naked before," he whispered before kissing up her neck. He kissed to her ear and took the lobe between his teeth. "I've also seen you completely naked," he whispered. "Beneath me," he purred before laying her on the bed. She put her arms around his neck. "I love you..." he whispered.
"I love you too," Amethyst said before she captured his lips.
