Auther's Notes: You would not believe how busy i have been. I was given a promotion at my work i now take care of all the magazines, which is alot of responsibility for me and alot of training up. Also my sister got real sick recently and was in hospital, not to worry she is on the mend as much as she can, because sadly what she has is going to affect her for the rest of her life. On top of this my older brother is going to be graduating in to the full time army and we are going down to see it. so writing at the moment has taken the back seat to alot of things.

But I finished it and i cant tell you how much i enjoyed writing it.

thank you to everyone who supported me and tried to get my to update in a timely manner...even though it didnt work...

so here we are the final chapter. enjoy everyone

I dont own phantom of the opera, so i wont pretend i do...

Aurora stood outside the gates of her house. She hadn't been inside or seen her parents for three whole years.

Straight after the, tell all article came out Aurora's parents rebutted it claiming it was all lies; they decided to disown her and as a result were not re elected..

Michael and Aurora got the lead in several plays at the Goldfield Theater, before coming back to the Bensolight theater two years ago to live closer to Michaels parents, whom Adore Aurora, and the feeling is mutual.

One and a half years ago, Michael proposed to Aurora at dinner with his parents, and soon after the two was married.

Now Aurora was back at her parent's house to tell them some important news.

Aurora approached the gate, and pressed the buzzer.

A few minutes later the gate opened. Aurora took a deep breathe and went inside.

The grounds had not changed too much, the same green manicured lawns. But the trees had grown and it wasn't home to her anymore.

Aurora reached the entrance drive, just as the door opened.

There stood both her parents stood there.

Her mother hadn't changed that much. But then again Aurora was pretty sure that was due to surgical help. Her father on the other hand, they years past were written all over her face.

Aurora stopped and stared and finally mustered up the courage to open her mouth.

"Hello Mum, dad"

"Aurora" Her mother said quietly not looking directly at her.

"Would you like to come in?" Her father asked

"No actually, I just have something I would like to say. Right after you disowned me I thought you would come around soon after and understand why I did it, but you proved to be two sponges that hang on to everything. You can't how upset I was. But then I realized that you wanted a perfect daughter and that wasn't me" Her parents stood there silent her mother looking bored and her father looked guilty.

"I got married two years ago, but then again you would know that seeing as I sent you an invitation. And now I'm going to become a mother myself and I realized my son or daughter will have to grow up without grandparents but then again I'm not too sure I would want you two influencing him or her. So I guess that is it"

Aurora turned and walked away. They didn't follow her.

Not then at least. Two days later Aurora got a call from her father apologizing for everything and wanting to be apart of her life again, they talked for hours just catching up. So in the end all was not lost.

Further in to the future Aurora's mother forgave her too, just in time to be there to welcome Alyssa and a surprise Jacob in to the world.

Looking back Aurora knew that she didn't always make the right choices but that is what life is all about right? Living it your own way and learning from your mistakes, Because in the end, it was Aurora's life.
