Life returned to normal after the return party for Germania, if you could consider their lives normal anyways. Much to Gillian's relief, it turned out that the party only caused for her to be kicked out until the house was clean of all the trash (which really, it'd seem odd to not have her clean it all up, but everyone knew she wouldn't do it). This led the girl to waltz across the yard and to her boyfriend's house and crash (eat pancakes, watch the season finale of hockey, and just be themselves) for the time being. Oh, and they told his parents about their newfound relationship and like Gillian predicted, they freaked out. Don't worry, they waited until Gillian could go home to tell them.

As for the others, they acted like nothing changed, because really, nothing did (Alfred still forced people to play his new video games with him, Lovina and Antonio argued in that way they did while still managing to be hopelessly in love, Felicia still showed up to cook for Ludwig and the Beilschmidt family without any warning, Francis tended to his mother's garden and paraded around declaring l'amour for any person with a pulse that came within a ten mile radius of him, and Arthur would forever complain about anything he could). Gillian and Katyusha were on speaking terms now, too, except that the German still refused to trust the Braginski name.

And as Gillian looked back on the recent events, all she could do was smile brightly at how everything seemed right in her new, if not bizarre and loud, life. She was ready for a new chapter of her story, anyways, and this one involved Matthew Williams, the man that managed to capture the heart of the one woman who no one had captured before then.


Author's Notes: Uh, yeah? I'm not very good at endings and this one sucks, but it's an ending nontheless. I'd just like to say that I really love every one of you that followed me until the end, reviewing, favoriting, and alerting this. I just wish I could give you all a big hug and wish the best of luck with the school year. (I'm returning this Monday, myself. :'D)

Well, I'm off to go do something. Oh, and if anyone has a tumblr, tell me so I can follow you. I like to follow people, yeah. Just let me know you have one, it's where I am most days anyways. 8D
