Happy New Year all! To celebrate the end of a decade, we have these wonderful snapshots, which you shall receive about one a day! It's all the moments you might have wanted to see but couldn't be fit into the stories. Visits to Addison, friends meeting family, babys' firsts, and their meeting with Michael, it's all here! The timing is approximate, we planned this out after writing Heart Trouble, so we fit things in as best we could.

First times Lauren/Josh - 2029 - 17/22 years old

"Mom, Ma, please." Carter asked, her and Liam on one side of the breakfast bar and Arizona and Callie on the other.

"It's our last night at home and we won't see them until Thanksgiving." Liam added.

Both teenagers would be going to leave for college the next day and they wanted Josh and Lauren to be able to spend the night.

"But you four spend all day together." Arizona said, really not liking this idea.

"Mom I want to spend my last night at home with Josh, in my bed, before I have to leave him for 3 months." Carter begged.

"And I want the same with Lauren. Besides I'm engaged to her, like ring on her finger, chicken or beef at the reception, engaged." Liam said, trying to get them to say yes.

"Fine. But we don't want to hear anything." Callie groaned, knowing they needed a night before they went away to be with their partners.

"Yay!" Carter hugged them both before dashing to the door to go pick up Josh.

"Thanks." Liam smiled before going to call Lauren.

"So that's sex. Wow." Lauren said, cuddled up to Liam. "I kind of hate you for showing me that and then leaving me for three months."

Liam laughed, his arm snuggly around her waist. "You will be out there next year. Only 120 miles away." In an irony he couldn't describe Josh was going to Harvard with him and Lauren to Yale with Carter.

"120 long miles." She pouted before kissing the long scar over his heart. "I'm glad you lived." She whispered, resting her head over his beating heart.

"Me too." Liam whispered, holding her ever closer.

"No wonder you strut." Carter giggled, moving off of Josh and onto her side.

"Well when I have a girl like you it gives me the little bit of confidence to strut a little bit." Josh laughed deeply, kissing her with major passion for being so tired.

"I'm going 3,000 miles away tomorrow." Carter whispered, Josh's state championship ring on her left hand. It wasn't an engagement more of a promise of one day.

"Yeah, you are." Josh whispered back, kissing her softer than before. "And you are going to rock the soccer world." He whispered, brushing the sweaty hair out of her eyes.

"You think so?"

"I know so babe." Josh gave her a lopsided smile.

"I love you Josh."

"I love you Carter."

Carter snuggled up to Josh, her body tired and her mind fried. Tomorrow she was done with being a kid. Tomorrow she was one step closer to being an adult.

Next one is the last one folks! But no worries, there's still one more story left!
