Epilogue

Tawni's POV

"Meet me out there!" Steven called after me.

"Okay!" I sang. I walked out dreamily.

The rain had finally stopped and there was a fresh (maybe a little too fresh) scent outside. It wasn't the best thing to be exposed to my designer clothing.

I looked out into the night sky. At least it was still pretty. Maybe not as pretty as me, but you know.

"Portlyn? Portlyn?" a guy ran in here frantically. "Oh hey, Tawni, have you seen Portlyn?"

That guy was Nico. "No… why would I pay attention to Portlyn?" I scoffed.

"Just wondering. I told her to meet me out here."

"Why? There's something special about this place?"

"I don't know," Nico said truthfully. "But everyone that comes out of here acts all lovey dovey. I think Chad and Sonny were out here…"

"What makes you think that? Chad and Sonny hate each other," I said.

"Well, they've stopped fighting. They kind of… laugh… now that I think about it."

"Chad… laughing? That's ridiculous."

"I know right? But that's the truth."

"I can see why people fall in love her though, it's pretty," I sighed. "Wonder who'll be my Knight in Sterling armor. Sterling Knight! Yeah!"

"Haha," Nico chuckled. "Sure, Tawn."

"Tawn?" I asked. "Since when did you start calling me Tawn?"

"Um…" he shrugged.

I giggled. "It's fine. I kinda like it."

"Hehe. You're kinda out of character this evening."

"Is that a bad thing?"

"Eh, not particularly…"

"Ha, it's Christmas Eve. And soon, Christmas. Wait 'til Monday… I'll be back."

"Haha. So…"

"So…" I said to drag on.

Nico looked up and his eyes seemed to widen. "I think I know why people come out lovey dovey out here…"

I looked up. And my eyes widened.

I started, "Mistle-"

"Toe," he finished. "You know, we do make a pretty good couple."

"Maybe…" I said a bit carefully.

"So?"

"Um… kiss me…" I said awkwardly.

And as his lips crashed into mine, I felt some sort of connection. A new sensation. The start of something new.

And that's it for this story! I hope to finish "Something About The Sunshine" and I'll try to get a new one-shot up. Get those creative juices flowing, to all I can before school comes back (woohoo… MATH and ENGLISH and GYM and SOCIAL STUDIES and yep…).

And to show my appreciation… *gives donuts to everyone*
