A/N:
I'm so happy that you all liked the last chapter so much.
And some of you sneaky people tried to figure out a new plot twist that MAY have been thrown out there! (hee-hee) But I'm not saying anything more about it right now! *sticks out tongue*
Sorry for the delay in posting… as I've said, these next two chapters were difficult to write. I've been a little sad on my own lately with real life crap so I hope my mood was at least beneficial in writing their goodbyes.
Thank you to everyone who sent me a favorite parting line for Jake and Bella. Some were really good and some just made me laugh… (I'll be back – Terminator – ha! Thank you BiteMe33!)
Some of you asked if you should prepare yourselves to shed some tears… and I hope that you feel the emotion I tried to convey in these next two chapters. My lovely Beta, WOLFYFANGRL, said she was bawling her eyes out, so I guess that's a good sign, right!
OK – without further ado… here's part one of their final hours together.

CHAPTER 28
PREVIOUSLY on MY PAST…
"Bella, look at me," Jake's deep voice called to me.
I opened my eyes and I felt like I could see his soul… this beautiful, powerful man above me loved me more than I deserved and it brought tears to my eyes.
"I love you so much Bella," he said, sharing in my tears.
I closed my eyes again as he hit that deep spot again, bringing with it that familiar tingling sensation. My legs began to shake and I could feel Jake swell inside of me.
"Come with me Bella," was all it took to bring me over the edge, my walls clenching and milking Jake of his hot seed as he spilled deep inside of me.
He fell on top of me, burying his face in the crook of my neck. I glided my fingers across his back as we both let the tears fall from our eyes. This exact moment in time was the part I wanted to carry with me for all of my existence.
Til the day I die, I will never forget the love we just shared.
BELLA's POV
My dad was already at work by the time Jake dropped me off at home. I didn't want to have to explain why I was with Jake this morning if I had spent the night at Sami's, like he was led to believe.
I found a note on the kitchen counter.
Bella,
Hope you had fun with Sami last night.
Since Jake has to leave tomorrow, why don't we go out to dinner tonight – mine and Billy's treat.
Your mother called. I told her you'd call her back today.
Love,
Dad
Going out for dinner would be wonderful. I selfishly wanted to keep Jake all to myself but I knew that so many other people wanted to say goodbye to him too. I called my dad and thanked him for the dinner idea and we worked out the time and location.
My dad had been so cool with me being with Jake since I got back. I really hadn't spent a whole lot of time with just my dad, but I'm sure that would change after tomorrow… when Jake's gone.
I sighed and decided I wasn't going to think about tomorrow right now. I was going to enjoy the rest of today and tonight with him. Then I groaned when I realized I'd have to call my mother back. I hadn't talked with her in a while and I'm sure she had a ton of questions for me about Jake and… Edward.
After 20 minutes of the same questions and answers with my mom, I got a text from Jake and told her I had to go.
**Hey beautiful. Miss me?**
I smiled and thought back to last night and how perfect our time was together.
**Always. What r u doing?**
**Picturing ur face when u were riding me**
I blushed.
**Haha. U have plans 2day?**
**Something with u**
**It's ur last day. U pick**
**How fast can u b here?**
I laughed.
**1 hour**
**I'll hurry – promise**
**Love u Bells**
**U 2**
I cleaned up the house a bit, took a shower and threw in a load of laundry. I didn't realize an hour had gone by until my phone buzzed again.
**It's been an hour but no Bella. Where r u?**
**Sorry. On my way**
I laughed at his impatience but didn't blame him. I counted the minutes until each time I saw him too.
I pulled up to Jake's house and he was already waiting for me outside. He had my door open and swept me into his arms before I could shut off the engine.
"Jake! Let me turn off the truck!" I yelped.
He reached in and did it for me, not letting me out of his hold.
"Jake?"
No answer. He tightened his arms around me.
"Honey, you can put me down now."
He shook his head.
"C'mon. You can't carry me around all day!" I laughed.
"I don't want to let you go," he mumbled into my hair.
"Jake, listen… I'd love nothing more than to spend every last minute with you by myself, but I know there's a lot of folks who want to see you before you leave."
He sighed and I continued.
"My dad said that he and Billy are taking us all out to dinner for your last night here. So why don't you hang out with Em and Quil til then and we'll have the rest of the night together, OK?"
He finally loosened his grip and pulled back to look at me.
"The guys put together a bon fire to say goodbye tonight," he said sadly.
"Oh! That's cool!"
"Yeah I guess, but I wanted to spend it with just me and you."
"I know, me too. At least we had last night…" I trailed off.
"Uh huh. I know it's selfish Bells, but I want more time with you… especially after last night."
"Look, our friends did a lot to help in the surprise yesterday, right?"
He nodded.
"Then the least we can do is spend time with them to thank them for everything. Hey, we'll still be together – I mean, I AM invited to this bonfire, right?" I teased.
"Of course!"
Jake said Billy had to run out but would be right back. So I spent the next hour helping Jake pack up his bag and getting things ready for him to leave. I tried to not think about why I was doing it and focused on the task at hand to keep my mind off of it. Jake must have been feeling the same way because we didn't talk much during this time.
We found ourselves sitting on the couch, lightly kissing and touching each other. Soft smiles, loving glances and deep sighs portrayed our thoughts and feelings. Just when things started to heat up between us, Jake's phone rang. It was Billy and I left the room to give him some privacy.
While waiting for Jake to finish his conversation, I made us a light lunch and left some for Billy on the kitchen counter.
Jake suggested that we walked down to the beach to eat. I enjoyed sitting with him on the blanket and the quiet afternoon we were sharing until the silence started to become a little awkward.
"Bells... Jake..." we both began, and then laughed.
"You go first," I said.
He grabbed my hand and began, "Bells, last night was amazing. I know that sounds dorky and cliché but it's true. I love you more than I think you'll ever realize. Leaving tomorrow is going to be so hard because I can't imagine being apart from you now." He took a deep breath before he continued, "I know I don't have any right in asking you this since I don't really have any idea of how long I'll be gone but… will you please wait for me."
"Wait for you? Wait for you to do what?"
"No, I mean… I don't want you to, um, date anyone else while I'm away."
"Of course not Jake! Did you really think I would do that?"
"I hoped you wouldn't but it's more than a little selfish of me to ask you to sit here and not date anyone else. I know that there will be guys after you Bells."
I scoffed at that.
"I'm serious Bella. Take Mike, for example."
"Yeah, well… you and Quil made it perfectly clear that he should stay away from me."
"But he won't. I know him too well. As soon as I'm gone, he'll try hitting on you again."
"It won't matter. I don't want to have anything to do with him after the way he acted. Jake, trust me – I only want you."
He smiled at that so I continued, "I love you too and if calling last night 'amazing' is cliché then so be it! Because it was amazing. The best night of my life in fact. And I'll wait for you for as long as it takes. I don't want anyone else… especially after last night," I whispered the last part and blushed.
JAKE's POV
We smiled goofily at each other like we were 14 all over again, leaning in slowly to kiss… until someone kicked sand at us.
"Get a room you guys!" Embry teased.
"Oh wait… you already did that!" Quil cracked up.
"Hey guys!" Bella laughed at them, which surprised me that she wasn't embarrassed by their comments.
"What are you two doing here? Don't you have to work or something?" I teased.
"I'm working a half-day and now… that half is over!" Quil explained and plopped himself down on the blanket next to Bella.
"Jake, you have to come with us!" Embry said excitedly.
"Uh, no I don't."
"Yes you do. There's a 1970 Plymouth Hemi-Cuda in the parking lot at the community center!" Quil cheered.
My jaw dropped. That has always been my dream car and there was one here? Now? Bella must have seen the look on my face and laughed.
"This must be some car!"
"It is," Embry said reverently. "It's one of the Top 10 muscle cars ever created. And it's like Jake's dream car of all dream cars."
"Well, go then! I'll meet you back at the house," she said.
"You sure?" I asked and she nodded.
"Thanks Bells. I love you," I whispered before kissing her quickly and running off with my friends.
BELLA's POV
I grabbed the blanket and walked back to Jake's house to find Billy in the living room, looking at some old pictures.
"Hi Billy. Did you get the lunch I left for you?"
"Yes dear, I did. Thank you. Come here Bella. I want to show you something."
I pulled the ottoman over next to his chair and looked at the photo album. Billy went back to the beginning, showing me pictures of him and Jake's mom when they were younger. They looked so in love – you could see it in their eyes.
"You and Jake have the same look that we did," he nodded.
"She was very beautiful."
"Yes, she was."
He flipped through some more pages – some of Jake and Rachel as children – until we came to a group of photos of a much younger me and Jake.
"I remember some of these, but not all," I said pointing to the unfamiliar ones.
"Ah, how about this?" Billy asked, turning the page to show us as teenagers.
In pictures with me and my dad, I could see Jake looking at me from a distance; and me doing the same in the background of photos where he and his sister were centered.
"You were always looking at each other, stealing glances here and there. Sometimes Jake would get brave and actually hold your hand and we'd have to hear about how happy it made him for days on end!" he laughed.
Then he flipped to some more pages and I noticed Jake's mom was no longer in any of them. I assumed these were taken after she died. There were less photos and the ones that were there didn't show a lot of smiling faces anymore. It made me sad to think that Jake had to go through that by himself. I should've been here for him, at the very least at his best friend.
The next pictures were of Jake from high school dances and football games. I couldn't help but feel a little jealous seeing these girls on Jake's arm at the dances but I only had myself to blame.
"He never stopped thinking about you Bella," Billy said, bringing me out of my thoughts.
"I'm glad he didn't but I just don't know if I'll ever..." I trailed off.
"What is it?"
"I feel like he could do so much better than me. Jake's gorgeous, smart, talented and so many other things. I'm just a girl he liked years ago. What if he finds someone better while he's traveling the world or wherever he gets stationed? And he realizes that all the trouble that comes with me just isn't worth it?" I asked, feeling surprisingly comfortable talking with Billy like this.
"I'm not sure you realize just how much that boy loves you," he said shaking his head. "Jake would go through hell and back for you Bella."
"But why? I know he loves me and I love him. But I feel like I can't offer him everything he deserves, especially when there's some crazy ex threatening to find me. I mean, why would he want to be involved with me and all the problems I have in my life?"
Billy reached over and wiped a tear that I hadn't realized was falling down my cheek. "Don't cry Bella. Jake wants you because you are his heart. He loves you and all that comes with you. He knew years ago that you were the one for him and he wouldn't let anyone tell him any different. Sure, he tried to date and even had that mess with Mya, but it never changed what was in his heart. If you love him as much as you say you do, promise me one thing…"
I nodded for him to continue.
"Don't give up on him. Don't let him think for a second that you're not good enough for him, because that's the same as someone telling him HE'S not good enough. If you doubt yourself, you're doubting him. You two will become as one someday, so remember that. He needs our support and love while he's away and he's going to look to you the most for that. Please be strong for him when needs it and let him love you – whether it's buying you little things, worrying about that crazy ex or any other guy while he's hundreds of miles away or showing you his affection…" he paused and I blushed, "… just let him love you. That's all he needs and it's what makes him truly happy. And as his father, all I ever want for my children is for them to be happy."
I threw my arms around Billy and I promised him that I would do what he asked and told him that even though he had Rachel now, I would always be here for him too. He gave me a genuine smile and we were interrupted from our private moment as the door flew open. Jake took in the scene in front of him and several emotions registered across his face. Once he realized there wasn't anything wrong, his look of worry vanished once he recognized what was going on.
He walked over to us and held out his hand to pull me up. Lifting me up to his side, Jake clasped his large hand over his dad's shoulder and patted him. His dad reached up and touched Jake's hand. It was a small and simple gesture but seemed to speak volumes to the both of them.
Seconds later Jake's goofy friends came bounding through the door. As I feverishly wiped at my eyes, they looked fearful that they intruded on something they shouldn't have.
"Uh, want us to come back?" Embry asked.
"Nah, we're good… right dad?" Jake asked.
Billy nodded, but didn't turn to face the boys as he didn't have control of his emotions just yet. I felt the need to break the tension.
"So… how was the car?" I asked.
"Oh, yeah!" Jake laughed. "She was beautiful," he said in awe.
"Watch it or your girl might get jealous of a car," Quil teased.
JAKE's POV
Bella and I spent the rest of the afternoon with Quil and Embry. She offered to leave so I could just hang out with my friends but we all told her no. I think they knew I didn't want to spend one minute more than I had to apart from her, and they genuinely enjoyed her company.
She didn't blush nearly as much as I expected her to with all the jokes about our night at the resort. Bella even surprised me by telling them that we used the entire box of condoms! I thought Quil's eyes would literally pop out of his head and I saw Em's jaw hit the floor. I laughed and kissed her. After that, they just shut up.
Before I knew it, the afternoon had flew by and I grew more and more anxious of the hands on my watch. They seemed to be moving at a rate faster than I had expected and my time here was growing short.
"Jake…" Bella warned, seeing me stare at my watch. "We promised to not worry about time today."
"I know. I know," I sighed.
"Come on. It's almost time for us to leave and meet my dad for dinner."
We said our goodbyes to Embry and Quil, knowing we'd be seeing them later on the beach for the bonfire.
Bella, my dad and I met Rachel and Charlie at the restaurant. I picked a surf and turf buffet. I ate like there was no tomorrow. But I figured that I wasn't sure when I'd have a spread like this in front of me again so I took advantage and chowed down!
All throughout dinner, I noticed Charlie and my dad whispering and nodding at one another. I wish I had super hearing so I could know what was going on. Were they talking about me and Bella? Did Charlie know about last night? Or did something happen with that prick Edward? I was hoping that their hushed conversation had more to do with Charlie and Sue than anything else I had dreamed up.
Bella kept stealing glances at me and would occasionally place her hand on my leg while we were eating. She kept a smile on her face the entire time, but every once in a while I could tell that it was a forced smile. I knew that as the night went on and time began to escape us, we would both become more affected by it. Rachel looked back and forth at us and seemed to realize what was going on and tried to distract Bella by changing the conversation.
I thanked my dad and Charlie for a great dinner and we all headed back to the beach. The sun was starting to get a little lower in the sky as we saw my friends putting the finishing touches on the logs. I saw Sam and Leah, Jared and Kim, Quil, Embry and Sami, Paul, Seth and Claire, Rachel, Emily and a few other people as we approached.
The guys got the fire started and we all sat around, telling jokes and old stories about each other. Every time Bella and I would try to sneak away to be alone for a few minutes, someone would interrupt us. It was becoming very frustrating.
I saw my dad and Charlie sitting off to the side, deep in conversation again. Bella was talking with some of the girls about her birthday scavenger hunt so I took the opportunity to sneak away from her side and try to figure out what the two old men were up two.
"..I'm telling you, he'd want to know," my dad argued.
"I understand, but there's nothing he can do hundreds of miles away except worry and telling him will only make him worry more," Charlie answered.
"Make me worry more about what? Please don't tell me this is about that prick Edward."
They eyed each other and seemed to resign to tell me as Charlie sighed, my dad nodding in approval.
"Son, look. It's not that I didn't want to tell you, I just know how much you'll worry about Bella while you're away and..." Charlie began.
"Charlie," I said in a warning tone, then remembered I was talking with my dad's best friend and tried to rein in my temper a bit. "Sorry, chief - just, please... I'll worry anyway so I'd at least like to have all the facts."
He nodded and then explained that the texts and threatening messages have continued since we first learned about them. He hadn't told Bella so she could try to live a normal life and enjoy her time with me. I appreciated that but knowing how Bella was, she'd want to know that Edward hadn't stopped. If someone was after me and threatening me, I'd want to know so I could keep my guard up.
"Has the police in Arizona said anything?" I asked.
"Nothing new, but Renee called me earlier. She and her husband are still in Florida and her neighbors are keeping an eye on the house, especially since the fire incident. They told her that someone has been lurking around a bit. I let the sheriff down there know but unless they catch him in the act, there's really nothing we can do."
"But the restraining order is still in effect, right?"
He nodded, "Yep. That's all we have going for us legally right now."
At least she was going to continue those self-defense classes and I worked out that deal with Emmett to keep an eye on her. Emmett caught my eye as I told Charlie our plan and he walked over to us.
"What's going on? This looks serious," he said.
"It is. Since you and I already agreed that you'll keep an eye on Bella after I leave, I think you should know what we're dealing with."
He nodded for me to continue. So Charlie and I explained the situation from the beginning, each of us filling in the parts that we had more knowledge of.
"Wow, this guy definitely isn't stable," Emmett said, shaking his head.
"No, not at all. And I can only do so much legally," Charlie said eyeing his potential officer. "So I've counted on Jake and now Jake says I can count on you to keep her safe."
"Yes sir. I won't be able to be with her as much as Jake was, obviously, but I will keep tabs on her and take her self-defense classes up a notch."
"What's going on over here? You guys look way too serious," Bella said as she approached us.
"Nothing babe. Emmett was just telling your dad how well you're doing in class," I said and kissed the side of her head.
Emmett helped to distract Bella from what we were originally talking about and I clenched my jaw as I realized that in a few hours I would be leaving Bella and going miles and miles away while her crazy ex was still stalking and threatening her. I tightened my hold on her and prayed that she would be safe until I returned.
Since it was a week night and mostly everyone in attendance had to work in the morning we decided to wrap things up by 11pm, which was early for us when most of our bonfires lasted until the early hours of the morning.
Charlie had left after our conversation with Emmett and my dad returned home shortly after that. I said goodbye to my friends and told them they could get my contact information from Bella or my dad, but I doubted Em or Quil would want to be pen pals with me.
Bella and I walked back to my house with my arm wrapped around her as she snuggled up against my side. Rachel had beat us home and was in the kitchen when we entered the house.
"Hey little brother. I'm going to try and get out of work in the morning to see you off. But just in case, for some reason I can't make it, let me say goodbye now, OK?"
I nodded and hugged her. She held onto my neck tightly and I heard her sniffle once or twice. When she pulled away, she wiped her eyes and gave me a big smile.
"Love you," I said.
She reached up and pecked me on the cheek and whispered in my ear, "Don't worry… we'll take good care of her while you're away." Then she winked and said a little louder, "Love you too."
Rachel gave Bella a quick hug before she headed to her bedroom. I grabbed each of us a drink, trying to delay Bella going home as long as possible. A few seconds went by before I heard my dad wheel himself into the kitchen.
"Jake, what time to we need to leave in the morning?" he asked.
"I have to check-in by 7:30."
He nodded, "I'll make sure you're up by 6 then." Then he turned to Bella. "Your dad and I talked earlier and decided that it would be OK for you to stay the night since we're getting up early and you'll be going with us anyway."
I was shocked - and ecstatic - to spend these last few hours with her. Granted, it wouldn't be like last night but as long as she was near me, I was happy.
"Really?" Bella asked in surprise.
"Yep. Charlie had one condition though… Jake takes the couch," he said and then winked. "But what I don't see after I go to bed, I won't be able to tell Charlie about."
Bella blushed beautifully and I laughed, "Thanks dad."
He chuckled all the way to his room. Bella and I awkwardly stood there, just staring at each other.
"So…" I laughed.
"So…" she giggled.
"Will you stay then? I mean, since your dad said it was OK?"
She nodded.
"Guess it's a good thing I put clean sheets on my bed!" I teased and her face fell. "What? What's wrong?"
BELLA's POV
How do I tell him that I can't sleep in his bed, knowing that he had sex with Mya in it? I shook my head as I searched for the right words.
"Bells, tell me. What's wrong?"
"Jake I can't sleep with you!" I shrieked.
"What? Why? Babe, my dad doesn't care if we're in my room together."
"I know, which is embarrassing enough. But I can't because…" I paused and he waited for me to continue. "… because that's where you and Mya…" I trailed off and looked down.
I could feel him staring at me but I wasn't comfortable to look him in the eye.
"OK," he said, kissed my forehead and walked away.
I looked up and stared blankly into the empty space before me. He just left me standing there in the kitchen. I could hear him go into his bedroom and shut the door. I was stunned; I couldn't believe he just walked away from me like that… and then I got mad. These are our last few hours together and if he couldn't be understanding enough to realize that I wouldn't want to be in the same bed where he and Mya had sex, then that's just too bad.
I didn't want us to argue over this before he left so I figured it was best for me to go home. I was about to text Sami and tell her to come and get me when he walked back into the kitchen.
"Come on, let's go," he said flatly and opened the front door.
I blinked a couple of times, not believing the way he was acting because I wouldn't sleep with him in his bed. I could feel the tears beginning to swell up in my eyes and screamed at my tear ducts to not betray me. I put my head down and walked outside.
Jake opened the door to his dad's car and I followed, getting in the passenger seat. As we drove towards my house, I became more and more upset over what was happening. I couldn't stop the tears from falling and hated the fact that I figured my crying over Jake would be happening in the morning as we said our goodbyes… not like this.
Jake heard me sniffling, saw my tears and grabbed my hand.
"Bells, don't cry."
I looked at him blankly.
He sighed, "I thought we said no tears til we had to say goodbye."
I shook my head and pulled my hand away. "I'm not crying about tomorrow," I said coldly.
He pulled behind my dad's police cruiser and turned to face me.
"Why else would you be so upset?"
"Are you serious, Jake? I'm upset because I tell you I won't sleep in the same bed that you happened to have sex with another woman in and what do you do? You walk away from me and then just take me home. I really didn't think this would be how we would end things before you left but..."
"Whoa! What? Wait a minute? You think I drove you home because I was mad or something? Mad because you didn't want to sleep in my bed?" he asked in a raised voice.
I nodded and stared down at my lap. He sighed and shook his head.
"Bella… Bella, look at me," he said urgently and turned my chin to face him. "How could you think that? After knowing how much I love you… after last night… that I would be so cold as to just take you home if you didn't want to be in my bed because it made you uncomfortable?"
I looked into his eyes and searched for the truth.
"Bells, baby – the only reason I drove you home was so that you could get a change of clothes for the morning and maybe your toothbrush or whatever."
"Really?" I asked meekly.
"Yes, really. I guess I should've said something when we got in the car but my mind was thinking about a bunch of different things and I just wanted to get you here quickly so that we could get back to my house as soon as possible."
"But I told you I can't stay in your bed. I'm sorry, Jake but it doesn't feel right."
"I'm not asking you to. And I get that – I mean, I wouldn't want to share a bed with you that you had been in with someone else. Look, we can either stay here at your house, or we can head back to my place and fall asleep together on the couch. Either way, I'm not giving up these last few hours with you."
I smiled, feeling a little embarrassed by my accusations. "I'm sorry. I guess I jumped to conclusions when you just took off after I said that. And I was confused and…"
He cut me off with a kiss as his hand went to the back of my head and pulled me to him. I moaned when his tongue swept against my bottom lip and entered my mouth. When he pulled back, he tucked a strand of hair behind my ear.
"So, what will it be? Your couch or mine?" he laughed.
"Definitely yours. I don't want to give my dad a heart attack to wake up and find us all tangled up together on the couch. Besides, we have to leave early and it will be easier if we were already at your house."
"OK – get your things. But promise me something Bells…"
I nodded.
"Please don't assume anything with me anymore. I'm a guy – we're programmed to be stupid."
I laughed at that - because it was true.
"Especially since we're going to be so many miles apart, I don't want either of us to assume things about each other. Let's spell it out clearly so that there's no misunderstandings, OK?"
I nodded, "OK. I love you."
"You too. Now get your stuff!" he smiled.
JAKE's POV
I stayed in the car while Bella grabbed her things from her room so we wouldn't wake her dad. We were back at my place in no time. She went to the bathroom to change and brush her teeth. When she came out, I had several blankets and pillows covering the couch and the floor.
"I found a movie to watch… if you want," I shrugged.
She nodded and walked over to hug me. I put in Armageddon and thought, how appropriate?
We snuggled down on the mile-high pile of blankets on the floor as Bella and I held each other tightly. I leaned on several pillows that were propped up against the couch with my long legs out in front of me. Bella curled into my side and rested her head on my chest, crossing her one leg over mine. We stroked each other with light caresses and soft kisses throughout the movie, causing her to get a little sleepy.
I thought we would both have passed out quickly, given the lack of rest we had the previous night, but as the movie played on, I could tell Bella was crying when Liv Tyler and Ben Afflek's characters parted.
I laughed a little when Ben Afflek said, "When I get back I'm gonna marry you," and Liv Tyler responded, "You bet your ass you will."
Bella yawned and closed her eyes, just after their rocket ship took off. I knew he came back to her, and that it was just a movie, but it made me smile knowing that I would be coming home to Bella someday too.
I leaned down, kissed the top of her head and then whispered, "I am going to marry you someday Isabella Swan."
A/N:
OK - I wanted to end it there because I still had to write the more difficult scene of saying goodbye at the airport. So get the tissues ready for the next chapter (it's already written and being checked over by my fantastic Beta, WOLFYFANGRL).
And I need to thank princessxoamber for her Armageddon suggestion. I liked that movie myself and had to throw it in this chapter. Thanks!
I've already written their parting lines and will thank the appropiate contributor(s) in the next chapter.
Thank you SOOOOO much for reviewing and messaging me with your love and support for this story. I love you all!
Hugs,
Juls
