Candy Kisses

Epilogue

A light breeze rustled the grasses where a girl stood on a hill, over looking Whammy's Orphanage. Set low in the ground, small gravestones were set, all with only one name and nothing more.

Aurora stepped lightly between them, reverently, until she found the one she was looking for.

Behind her, standing near their car, Eliza and Levi watched her, silent.

The red-haired girl looked down at the tiny stone rectangle, and knelt to feel its surface as she whispered the name engraved upon it, "Matt…"

There were several long moments of silence, as tears began to drip down her face. Eliza came over to support her friend, her own tears of mourning resurfacing. Levi hung back, eyes sad as he watched the girls.

"I miss him, too…" Eliza said, lowly, as if only to herself.

Aurora nodded, wiping her eyes on her wrist, before proclaiming, "I loved him…"

The dark-haired girl looked up, only startled to hear the words, before holding her friend closer, "I think he knows."
