Thanks to FireGoddess101 and guest for alerting me on my mistake. Here's the correct epilogue.
Sorry for the confussion!


Over the course of the next year, a lot of things changed. Andie no longer lives in the house with us; she moved in with her biological father, a few blocks away. We were all hesitant about her decision, but in the end we couldn't really stop her. She attempted to reassure us that nothing her father could do to her would compare to what she experienced in the past; we just hoped she was right. She no longer speaks to her mom and step-dad and only intermittently sees Becky. Andie cut them out of her life, which was for the better.

Andie was able to get her job back at Buck's, she's more careful about not getting caught behind the bar. She picked up more shifts in order to pay off her debt quicker and she's still adhering to her promise to Darry, saving to pay for college. As a result we rarely see her anymore; it almost feels as though we parted ways. On the occasion we do all hang out, it's like old times, we joke and laugh around, cherishing those moments. On her rare nights off she's either studying, sleeping, or out with her boyfriend

She started dating Tim Shepard on and off a few months after her incident. While it initially hurt to see her with Tim, it gave me the motivation to actually move on from her. I currently have a girlfriend, her name's Sandy, things couldn't be going better between the two of us; I love Sandy a lot, it wouldn't surprise me if I ended up marrying her one day. I suppose Tim and Andie are a good match for one another, both have been through a lot of shit in their lifetimes and are as tough as nails, but there's this feeling I can't shake that something's going to happen between the two of them.

But for the time being, we're all just living in the moment.
We're just living this life trying to make sure every minute of it counts.
