3 years later
Riley graduated from high school two months ago. Noah started middle school. Jesse and Billie are also part of The Thunder Blossoms now. Noah put some of his friends on the team since the old members are going off to college. Jasmine is a happy three-year-old.
Tomorrow Riley, Jackson, and Riley's friends are going off to college today.
Present time
"Mommy it's time to wake up." Jasmine said as she started jumping on her mom.
"Good morning baby. Where is my hug." Riley said as Jasmine jumped and hugged her mom.
"Now come on, I have a big day today." Jasmine said as she got out of bed.
"Yes we do baby girls." Riley said as they got dressed.
A few minutes later
Riley and Jasmine walked into the kitchen, where Noah and Olivia were at.
"Morning, Riley." Noah said
"Morning." Riley said
"Good morning baby. And good morning little one." Olivia said as she kissed Riley and Jasmine's forehand.
"I'm so happy that you are only going to be two hours away." Noah said
"Um about that…" Riley started to say as she looked over at Olivia.
"What is going on?" Noah asked
"I'm not going to The University at Albany." Riley said
"Oh okay then where are you going? Is it closer to here." Noah asked
"Well no, Jackson, Jasmine and I are moving to California. Jackson and I are going to the University of Southern California." Riley said as she watched Noah's face change.
"What! Why? I thought you wanted it to be a cop." Noah said.
"I do but acting and dancing is what I all way wanted to do." Riley said
"So you are moving across the country when she decides to study criminal justice." Noah said
"So what, it is my future not yours? If I decide to move across the country and follow my dream, I will do that." Riley said
"I hate you!" Noah yelled as he walked into his room and slammed the door.
"Now he hates me." Riley said as she sat down next to Jasmine who was playing on the ground.
"I don't think he hates you and I think he is just sad that you are not staying in New York." Olivia said as she sat down next to Riley.
"Yeah but i can visit and video called each other all the time. I don't see the big deal." Riley said
"It's a big deal to him. You are leaving a month early then planned and you are moving all the way to Los Angeles, California which is 2,799.6 mi away." Olivia said
Riley thought for a minute before she started talking.
"I think I have a plan." Riley said
"What is it?" Olivia asked
Riley leaned over and whispered it in Olivia's ear.
"I think I would love that." Olivia said
One hour later
Riley walked over to Noah's door and knocked on it.
"Noah, can we talk." Riley said
"Go away." Noah said
"Noah, I have something to tell you and you might like it." Riley said
"What is it?" Noah asked
"Can you open the door, Please." Riley said
A few seconds later
Noah slowly opened the door.
"Hi." Riley said as she slowly walked into Noah's room.
"So, I talked to mom and she said that it was fine. So how do you feel about coming to California with me?" Riley asked
"Wait what?" Noah asked
"If you want you can come to California with me for a while so we can still hang out before we go back to school." Riley said
"I would love that." Noah said as he hugged Riley.
"I thought you would." Riley said as she hugged Noah back.
"So let's pack our flight leave tomorrow afternoon." Riley said
"Okay." Noah said as he pulled out his suitcase from his closest.
A few hours later
Jasmine was napping when Riley and Noah finished packing.
"Mom, I'm going to go and hang out with some friends for an hour." Riley said
"Okay, be careful." Olivia said as she watched Riley walk out the door.
10 minutes later
Riley walked into the restaurant where she was meeting Colleen, Skye, Addison, and Olivia for their last time before they leave.
They all will be going to different places for school and doing different things.
Olivia will be attending the University of Southern California. Same as Riley and Jackson. Her career path to becoming a doctor. She will be majoring in pre-med.

"Hey guys." Riley said as she sat down next to Olivia.
"Hey." They all said it at the same time.
"I can't believe this is the right time we hang out together before we all go to college." Skye said
"I know, time went by so fast but I do have a gift for you guys." Riley said as she pulled out four small boxes.
They opened the box and saw that it was a necklace.
"It is a Best Friends Forever Rhinestone Broken Heart Shape." Riley said
"Thank you." They all said
"You are welcome." Riley said as she hugged them.
45 minutes later
"I should get going, tomorrow is a big day." Riley said
"Okay bye." Skye said
"See you tomorrow." Olivia said
"Yep, bye." Riley said as she left.
The next day
At the airport
"I can't believe it's already time." Olivia said as she kissed Riley's forehand.
"I know mom but I will be back soon." Riley said
"I know but i going to missed you." Olivia said as she saw Amanda and the team walked over to them.
"Jesse!"Jasmine she when she saw Jesse.
"Hi Jasmine." Jesse said as she hugged her.
"What are you guys doing here?" Riley asked
"We want to say bye." Kat said
"Oh my gosh I'm not leaving forever and can still visit." Riley said
"Yeah we know that but you are leaving for school and are also moving there so we have to come and say bye." Fin said
Riley just rolled her eyes.
"Where is Noah and Jackson?" Carisi asked
"They went to get Starbucks. Oh here they are." Riley said as she saw Noah and Jackson walking over to them.
"Are you ready Noah?" Riley asked
"Yeah." Noah said
"We should get going." Riley said
"Bye for now." Riley said as she hugged everyone, then Noah hugged everyone and then Jasmine hugged everyone.
"Bye for now. We will be back in a month or so to drop Noah off." Jackson said
"Bye and be safe. Love you both." Olivia said
"We will mom. Love you too." Riley and Noah said
Amanda, Olivia, Jesse, Billie, Kat, Fin, and Carisi watched Riley, Noah, Jackson, and Jasmine walk to their gates.
