Epilogue:

10 months after Lucas and Peyton left

Here he was, standing where he always knew that he would end up. He was nervous as hell but who wouldn't be? Moving into a new phase of their life; it's a difficult transition for anybody to handle. Did he feel that this was wrong? Not at all. His stomach felt like it was about to explode he was so anxious. He knew everything would be alright as soon as he saw her. He was right.

The doors opened and he caught sight of the one woman who could make his heart flip every single time their eyes met. She looked amazing. Her dress was beautiful; ivory with beads along the bottom half. It was a simple design but one that she set off perfectly. Her hair was loosely curled, just the way he liked it and a simple but beautiful tiara set her off. He could see that she was smiling as she made the walk towards him slowly and he couldn't help but smile widely at the sight of her. Finally she made her way until she was positioned directly in front of him. He couldn't help himself but wipe her gentle tears away. These were the kind of tears he loved; tears of pure happiness. Everyone who looked upon the sight could see it and it warmed their hearts.

As Peyton turned to the side there was a light gasp from a few people who noticed her slightly protruding stomach. The biggest of these coming from Larry and Karen. They were both shocked but they couldn't deny that their children were glowing and they couldn't be unhappy because it was clear this is how it was meant to be. Haley, Brooke and even Nathan were shocked, they couldn't believe that neither of them had cared to mention that Peyton was with child during the countless times they had spoken to them. Lucas and Peyton had both agreed that it was best to surprise everyone at the same time and so had not let anyone visit since they found out that Peyton was pregnant. She was only 4 and ½ months gone but it was already noticeable considering her tiny frame.

Finally the moment came that everyone had been waiting for. Peyton and Lucas especially.

'And do you Peyton Sawyer take Lucas Scott to be your lawfully wedded husband?' The priest asked and Peyton pretended to think about it for a moment before beaming.

'I do' Lucas grinned widely.

'Then by the power vested in me I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may now kiss the bride.' This was it, the one perfect moment in their lives. Lucas grinned widely at his wife before moving one hand to her waist and the other to cup her face. He moved down slowly savoring every moment as he finally joined their lips. They became so lost in each other that they failed to notice the cheers they were receiving from their family and friends. They finally broke apart and looked towards their audience.

This was it, their moment in time when everything would change. They were ready for it. This was their happy ending and no one could be prouder as they looked upon the newlyweds.

'Ladies and Gentleman, I present Mr. and Mrs. Scott'. The church erupted in cheers as they heard this.

'So Mrs. Scott, are you ready for this?' Lucas smiled at his wife.

'I've never been more ready for anything.' And with that she leaned up to gently peck his lips before he joined their hands and they walked towards their future.
