This is the end my friends.

An end for one you thought you once loved

Two weeks later

I haven't talked to Brydon in two days. I thought we were doing really well. I called to Decklen to see if he was all right. Decklen told me that he was fine and was coming over with a surprise next time he comes.

I paced around the den hopping to make time to go by faster.

" Relax Ember. It's only been two days. You will get to see him again. Brydon wouldn't want to upset you by not seeing you. He is probably going through the same kind of stress right now." Colleen said from the sofa. That just made me pace faster.

" Two days though! Two days! I haven't seen his face or heard his voice. I feel like I'm never going to see him again. What if something happened to him! What if he's hurt or he got into some kind of trouble. What if-"

" Don't think about the what ifs. Nothing happened to him. He is fine. Don't worry about him. You will get to see him again."

" You better be right. I don't know what I would do if something did happen to him." I said sat down, trying to calm down.

A knock came from the front door. I dashed to the door to see if it was Brydon. I pulled the door open to see it was him. I jumped into his arms. His lips were on mine before I could blink.

" What happened? I was so worried something happened to you." I said looking into his eyes. It felt like I haven't seen them in forever.

" I'm so sorry." He brushed my hair away from my face. " I have a surprise for you though." He said. He picked me up. " Is Tim here?" He asked

" No. He's out hunting. He should be back soon though." I said.

He brought me into the den and put me down on the sofa.

" Hello Brydon." Colleen said getting up.

" Hello." He said. Colleen left the room. He kneeled on the floor in front of me. He took my hands in his. Oh boy what is he doing? He hasn't even told me that he loves me. " Ember, I have something to tell you that I've known since the day you left." Oh boy here comes the ' I hate you and I never want to see you ever again.' He pulled out a small black velvet box. Wow maybe he doesn't hate me. " I love you. I love you so much that I think my heart is going to explode. What's in this box is to remind you of how much I love you and how much I will always love you." He opened the box but I didn't look at it. He just told me that he loves me. He just said it 4 times. He's never said it.

" Brydon." I said

" Yes?" His eyes hardened as if he was expecting bad news.

" I love you too." I said to him. He smiled and kissed me so patiently that I thought I was going to die from a passion over load.

" Please look at the ring." He said. I looked down. The ring was simple but so beautiful at the same time. It was a silver band with a circular turquoise stone in the middle. I loved it. " It's the same color as your eyes." He said.

" Oh Brydon, I love it." I couldn't believe he gave me a ring. I wrapped my arms around him. " I love you so much Brydon. So much. I'm so happy." I started to cry form being so happy.

" I love you too. Don't cry. I still have to ask you something."

" What is it?" I asked

" Well school just ended and I want you to come live with me. We would have to go to school in September but you would get to be with my family and I." He said.

It took me all of 5 seconds to pick my answer. " Yes. I'll come live with you."

" We have to tell Colleen and Peder though." He said.

" Don't worry I will." I said. " I have to get my things together."

" Okay but put this on first." He handed it to me.

" I want you to put it on." I said and handed him my left hand. He slipped it on my ring finger, and then kissed me.

" Ember, what's going on?" Tim asked from my right.

I pulled away from Brydon. " Can you go get my stuff together?"

" Yeah sure." I kissed his cheek. He left the room and I turned to Tim.

" How long?" His voice was soft.

" Oh come on don't be upset. You knew it was coming. You don't love me."

" I don't love you? Why would you think that?"

" Lets see you kiss another girl and you're not the best at blocking your mind. I guess your going to have to make out with a pillow." I said.

" How long?"

" Two weeks, two days. I'm going to live with him."

" You tell Peder?"

" He knew I was seeing him and it would only be a matter of time before I would be going." I got up and walked past him. I went into the living room to see if Colleen was there and she was. " Colleen I need to talk to you." I said.

" Sure what's- Did Brydon give you that ring?"

" That's part of it. Brydon did give it to me. He's upstairs right now. I'm going to go live with the Moores. There's no point in staying here anymore." I said.

" Your right there isn't. I'm so happy for you. I knew you would make the right choice. I want to be there for the wedding." She joked.

I gave her a hug. " Thank you so much for everything. I'll come and see you all. Tell Matt and Peder that I'll miss them and it's a given that I'll miss you." I said. She laughed.

" Well get packed and get out of my hair." She joked.

I went upstairs and Brydon was sitting on my bed with my bags all packed. I grabbed one of y bags from off the bed and we headed outside. I hugged Colleen one more time and then we put the bags in the back of the Audi.

I felt so happy. I couldn't believe it was going to be just Brydon and me from now on. Just the two of us. We wont have to worry about Tim any more. It felt so unreal but I knew it was real. I love him so much and I couldn't believe that he loved me too.

We got into the car and he started it up. He took my hand and squeezed it.

" I love you Ember." He said

" I love you too Brydon." I said. It felt so right being there and in love with him. I knew it was meant to be.

Well that's it. It was fun wile it lasted. I started another fanfic but it's for The Outsiders so if any of you want to read it go ahead. I will only write a sequel if I get 20 or more reviews saying I should. Till next time - Criz
