A/N: The long-awaited epilogue…here it is!

Toronto International Airport has been a place, where I have written two other important chapters of this story. so, I thought to write the epilogue sitting here.


"She dreams of where she's never been

A story starts where it should end"

Epilogue

"Callie, I so hate this gown." Since last night she has been complaining about her convocation gown.

"What's the problem with that?" I try to hide my smile. "You are looking cute."

"Of course, I'm not." Arizona says in her typical flat tone. Today is her convocation day and she has been chosen as the valedictorian of the convocation, which means she is supposed to give a speech in front of all of us. This is the reason, for what she has been so bothered about the gown- she never likes talking in front of so many people. She is in front of the mirror wearing the gown and cap for last half an hour.

Standing on her back, I hold her snaking around her waist. "You'll be totally fine, kiddo."

Although she visibly is relaxed in my arms, she still says in a stern voice, "don't call me kiddo… because of you, I had to earn such a high CGPA and now I have to give a speech also. This is all your fault."

I give a kiss on her gown covered shoulder. "I have never forced you to be the topper."

"Ehhh! How would you know the pressure of being the wife the most brilliant Professor of the school?"

"Well… thanks for the compliment, but I'm not the most brilliant…"

"Whatever…" Arizona snorts while looking at herself at the mirror.

I start giving couple of feather like kisses on her bare neck and feel how she has started getting goosebumps under my kisses. After almost two years of our marriage also, she still behaves as if I'm doing all these for the first time. I like how she wants me almost all the time. The craziness we had in the beginning of our relationship has turned into one of the most blessed things of my life. Dad made a little fuss in the beginning, but nowadays he seems to like Arizona a lot. Whenever he has a business problem, he would always call Arizona. Sometimes, I feel that my parents are becoming Arizona's parents.

"Calliope… you are so not helping." Saying this Arizona turns in my arms and wraps her hands around her shoulders. I know the look she is giving me and I know that too, no matter what I can never say no t her.

"How could I help you?" I play along with her.

Arizona unlocks my locked hands from her back and take off the gown letting it falling at our feet. Then, she takes one of my hands and guides it into her pants. "You can help it here." Arizona says it almost intoxicatedly.

"NO… we'll be late." Saying this too, I let my hands inside her pants and starts moving my fingers towards where she wants it most.

"I don't care…just do it now." She clasps my both shoulders to hold herself, as she is standing.

"But, I do care a lot…" I pull her in a searing kiss with another hand, while using my fingers expertly on her.


As I already knew that we were going to be late, but Arizona had to get what she wanted.

So, when we arrive the venue almost running, we see Adi and Zoie are standing at the entrance.

"Again late?" Adi almost yells.

"I mean… we …" I start fumbling because this has been a regular practice nowadays.

"Okay… I don't need to know the nitty gritty details of your exotic sex." Zoie cuts me with rolling eyes.

"we didn't have sex…" Arizona says looking somewhere else.

"Now please don't say that there was tire puncture… you already had that story two days back in my party." Zoie sarcastically stops her while hiding her smile.

"Yeah… Zoie is right." Adi supports her.

"We need to go in… it's gonna start soon." At this moment, this is the easiest way to escape under the fire of our two best friends. Yes, Zoie also has become one of our close friends. She in fact became Arizona's best person in our wedding and throughout the wedding she took care of Arizona. So, now more than me she is Arizona's friend. What I hate most is that, these two will always bitch about me and Adi whenever they will get any opportunity.

"Yes… let's go in. Your parents are already there." Adi informs me.


Arizona is also awarded the gold medal for her highest CGPA. so, once the medal is worn, she is called to the podium for the speech. I know the speech by heart because she has practiced for so many times in front of me. Once she draws the thank you line, the hall breaks into loud applause and Arizona moves towards the stairs. However, suddenly she stops and comes back to the podium making me surprised and everyone else is also looking at her. Then she looks at me, "Calliope, thank you for coming into my life...thank you for agreeing to be my wife and thank you for making me falling in love with you with every passing day. " And she starts walking back to the stairs, while everyone breaks into claps and whistles.

Arizona is not a person who would be expressive about her feelings so openly. But, today when she says all those words looking at me, I have lived a life within those few seconds.

"That was such a great expression of love! How come secretive Arizona got so open?" I tease Arizona, after the convocation ceremony, when I finally have a chance to talk to her.

"That was just a one-time thing… I thought to pay you back the morning favor." Arizona wiggles her eyebrows suggestively.

"Oh! Is it?" I give a peck on her lips. "What the plan?"

"NO plan… except living my life with you." Arizona says leaning on me.

"I too have the similar 'no plan' in my mind." I reply hugging her tight.

I know that life always will not be blissful, there will always be ups and downs and I really do not know the future, but I know that no matter what, we two are going to live our lives together and always going to come to each other…


A/N: I just hope that you like the epilogue.

My life turned total upside down from the time I started writing the story till the point I had finished it. I'm no more the same person. I no more know myself. But, I know one thing that things will happen for the better for all of us and we all will get what we deserve. And just remember one thing, there is nothing called one sided love- you would never know the feelings of hopelessly in love unless and until your love is reciprocated equally and then only you'll find your that 'true love'.

Thank you so much for reading this. I'm grateful to all of you.
