FINAL CHAPTER UP!!!!! I can't believe I'm finally doing it. "Troubles" is finally over (When I finish "Troubles: A New Generation" the series are over). After almost four years working in the same story, with the same characters, I'm officially over. And this time, I'm not going to work in a sequel.
I'm really feeling sab because of it, but all god things must come to an end. I know "Troubles" has never been one of those popular stories, but it was always been my fav story to write. As people say, there is nothing like our first love, in my case, there is nothing as my first story.

At Night
After the graduation, the small gang had decided to leave to Chris' beach house. It was the best place for the farewell party. It was the perfect place to say goodbye to all those years full of craziness and stories to tell.
"This time I did great" Stacy thought to herself sat on the sand. As everyone was having fun inside the house, the blonde had decided to leave them and go to the outside. She was on the beach with her eyes landed on the sea.
- Why do I always need to be so precipitated? - Stacy asked herself and then closed her eyes.
"5 Years Ago
- Someone today is in a very good humour - Torrie exclaimed watching Stacy, walking from a side to another in the bedroom - What happened last night?
- Nothing special - Stacy answered without to lose her smile.
- So, did the date suck? - Torrie asked with curiosity. She had never thought her best friend and John would ever get friendly with each other.
- No, it didn't suck. Why would it suck? - Stacy replied and sat on her bed - It was nice.
- But nothing special happened - Torrie concluded and sat at her side - Are you really sure about it?
- Well, when we backed some monitor saw us and thought we were going to do something stupid and yelled with us. After it, he send us to our rooms - Stacy told Torrie and the malicious smile on her face - I'm sixteen. I don't have sex with a guy with only a date.
- I know that. I know you hit them and send them to the hospital - Torrie replied and Stacy laughed - C'mon, you have to tell me what you think about John. He's a sweet guy.
- A sweet guy that I think I already know - Stacy whispered remembering a certain football game where one of her friends got his tooth broken by a guy from the other team.
- So, you think he is sweet? - Torrie questioned and bit her lip.
- I only repeated your words - Stacy exclaimed - You said he was sweet, not me.
- I'm your best friend, so tell me right now what happened last night or our friendship is over - Torrie threatened the other blonde - Tell me!
- Well...- Stacy was going to tell Torrie about the date when they heard a knock on the door. It didn't take them too long to see a girl entering on it.
- They want everyone in the lunch table. They have something important to tell us - the girl told Stacy and Torrie and then left the room.
- News run fast around here. I can't believe you didn't tell me it. I had to hear about other people - Randy told John, who looked to him confused. About what was he talking? - You slept with a chick and you didn't tell me it.
- First thing, we aren't girl friends, so if something like that happens, you don't have anything to do with it - John replied not feeling confused anymore, now he was feeling a mist of confusion and surprise - Next thing, what hell did you say? With whom did I sleep?
- Well, with the chick you went out last night - Randy replied and both left the lunch building - Everyone is talking about it.
- Everyone is talking about it? - John asked laughing. He couldn't believe in what he was hearing. Did he sleep with a girl without know it? - How the hell is someone talking about something that didn't happen? Who the hell told you it? In fact, who the hell started it?
- You - Randy answered and the two continued walking to their bedroom. They had some time until the activities they would be obligated to participate to start - You started it. You told it to someone who told it to someone else who decided to tell it to another someone.
- Great - John whispered without believing it was happening with him. If he ever thought having something with the girl, now he knew it would never happen. He was sure she was going to hear about it and think that he was an asshole.
- Someone put you in a big trouble - Randy whispered when saw Stacy walking to them. Torrie was trying to stop the younger girl, but she was too mad to be stopped - If you need me, I'm over there - with those words, Randy left John, who got very surprised.
- Where are...- John never finished his sentence because the blonde girl with whom he had a date slapped him. She had more force than he would ever think. Before he could say a word, the girl talked.
- I can't believe you did it - Stacy exclaimed very angry. She had heard people talking about her sleeping with him and when she confronted them about it they told her it was John who told it.
- Stacy, easy down - Torrie whispered her friend, but she ignored her.
- You, guys, are all the same. There is only one thing inside your pathetic heads: Sex - Stacy replied. Once again John tried to say something, he tried to tell her he didn't do a thing, but she didn't allow him - I hope you are happy because now I'm the whore. I'm the one who has to handle the other guys thinking I'm easy. Torrie says you are sweet, but I say you are an asshole. The biggest one I ever meet.
- Before you continued insulting me...- John started, but she stopped him.
- Don't say a word. You have no idea with whom you messed with - Stacy advised him - Just have lookout - with those words, the blonde turned around and left Torrie and John behind. It didn't take Randy too much time to come back to their side.
- Nice scene - Randy told and landing his hand on John's shoulder. Seeing his expression, very quickly Randy removed his hand.
- You have no idea with whom you messed with - Torrie whispered and John looked to her confused. Stacy didn't look the kind of girl who could be a bitch.
- What do you mean with it? - John asked Torrie. Why didn't she let him explain?
- Well, I know Stacy. She can be sweet and nice, but at her same time she has the capacity to make your life a living hell - Torrie revealed to John - Have lookout or your Summer will become a hell."
- I should have let him explain - Stacy whispered placing her head on her knees. Lost in her thoughts, she didn't feel John arriving.
- Are you calmer? - John asked sitting at Stacy's side. Noticing his presence, she looked to him.
- Yes - Stacy told him - I guess Candice isn't the only having jealousy attacks. I know you told me millions of times that you don't like Dawn anymore and that you are only friends, but you have a past and it's one of those pasts you can't erase from your life.
- We have a past too, we have a five years past and with luck it can become a bigger past - with those words, John wrapped his arms around Stacy's waist and pushed her closer. The blonde placed her head against his chest - Do you want to make it bigger?
- Do you know in what I was thinking? - Stacy asked John without answer his question - In our summer camp. In the Summer camp where we met each other and had our first date. Do you know what I regret from those days? Not letting you to explain what really happened, that you didn't have anything to with the rumour. If I had let you, our past would be already a little bigger.
- Trish can we talk? - Chris asked his girlfriend, who looked to him with curiosity. Without say another word, Chris grabbed her hand and pushed her into the kitchen.
- Is something going on? - Trish questioned Chris.
- We can say that - Chris said very serious. He was worrying Trish. As Chris wasn't the most serious guy in the world, every time he decided to have a serious conversation she would always get worried.
- Okay, can you tell me what happened? - Trish exclaimed without want to wait more time for an answer.
- Well, I have been thinking and we should get married this Summer - Chris revealed and Trish smiled - I know you never wanted the engagement, but it's the time to start a new chapter in our life as a couple.
- You want to marry me this Summer? - Trish asked very surprised and Chris nodded with his head - Oh my God the fortune-taller was right - hearing her words, Chris stayed without know what to say - Some years ago when we went to circus, I went to a fortune-taller. We weren't engaged at the time, but she in her words told me that a question in the night after my graduation was going to be the door to my happiness.
- That's a yes, right? - Chris asked after some moments. He never got an answered because Trish lips crashed into his.
- So, how was Drew? - Torrie asked Maria. Both girls were in their bedroom unpacking.
- He is sweet. Maybe he can be the one - Maria answered - Maybe I was wrong about Punk. He was the first guy I like.
- Yeah, the first love can be only the first and never the last - Torrie added smiling. She was free to find someone new and she was happy for it. She never thought she would be happy for getting free of Billy, but she was. She was finally free from a guy who hurt her a lot. This time she wasn't going to get back with him again, it was finally over.
- We have to find two guys to the group. The other girls took them from us - Maria said and Torrie laughed.
- Believe me, we don't want those - Torrie said wrapping her arm around Maria's shoulder - Never date a guy who isn't meant to be with you, a guy who is meant to be with your best friend.
- It sounds a familiar story. I think I already hear it - Maria said trying to remember it.
"And that' the Maria we all know" Torrie said to herself and then put on her feet - Let's get back to the living room. Our farewell party is waiting for us.
- Where the hell are Matt and Amy? - Randy complained. He never had problems with animals, but Lucas was making him crazy. The dog didn't stop barking. He wanted to spend some quality time with Candice in the couch while everyone else was busy, but it seemed the dog didn't want to leave them alone.
- They went to buy something that was missing - Candice told Randy by the third time - Why?
- Their dog doesn't stop barking - Randy replied and Candice straddled in hips.
- Leave the dog alone - Candice exclaimed and kissed his lips - You will always forgive me, right?
- What did you do? - Randy asked very surprised with her question. Why was she asking him such question?
- Well, I didn't do anything, but if I ever get jealous again, I want to make sure you don't get mad with me - Candice told Randy - Because I know I'll always have jealousy attacks. I'm jealous by nature.
- Okay - Randy replied smiling - I will do everything possible to not get mad with your jealousy attacks.
- Because if we survive to it, I think we can last - Candice whispered placing her forehead against his.
- Next time, we stay home and someone else is going to shop - Amy complained locking the door's car.
- I wonder when the next time will be - Matt said waiting for Amy to arrive to his side. When she did it, he wrapped his arms around her shoulders and the two started walking to the beach house.
- Why is everyone acting has it is the end? - Amy exclaimed - C'mon we aren't going to stop being friends or seeing each other.
- Well, but we all agree it would be hard to spend time together as we do - Matt replied and Amy rolled her eyes and smile - What?
- Matt, as long I'm with you and as long I'm able to stay talking with them and spend a day of the month with them, I'm happy - Amy told him.
- What if we only spend a day of the month with me? - Matt asked Amy.
- Well, then I'm going to be miserable during all the other days, but we have cell phones and we can always try to catch a plane in the middle of the night - with those words, both of them started hearing Lucas barking.
- Why I have the feeling Lucas made their life a living hell? - Matt whispered and Amy laughed.
- We should have taken our little boy with us - Amy replied. Kissing his lips, she opened the door and both entered in the house. It didn't take too long to Lucas ran to them.
- Som does it mean "yes"? - John asked and Stacy nodded with her head.
- Yes, it does - Stacy answered and then kissed his lips. Breaking apart, she stayed looking to him - You asked me this morning if I could see us together in the future. The answer is yes too. I can picture us together, living in a big house probably with a kid running from a side to another and with ring in my left hand.
- I thought you didn't want to marry - John exclaimed very surprised.
- Well, my mind can change. After all, my father married and he was the last person I thought would get married - Stacy replied - And most part of people married because they are in love. I'm in love with you.
- I love you too - John said pushing her closer - Let's back inside? We have a farewell party waiting for us.
Without say a word, Stacy put on her feet and John did the same thing. Holding each other's hand the two backed inside the house.
One chapter of all their life was now closed and another one was ready to begin. No one knew what was going to expect them in the future, but they hoped to stay together and leave a time all full Troubles behind.
THE END
