Last chapter :( I already have a new idea for my next story so…stay tuned haha

EPILOUGE:

There was a scent of vanilla that floated around the house. The likely cause of this was the new Vanilla Spice candle that Miley had placed in the middle of the kitchen table earlier that morning. The stereo was cranked up to the highest volume and docked on it was a blue ipod playing a playlist filled with Maroon 5, James Blunt, Radiohead, Regina Specktor, and John Mayer. And then there was Miley, grown tall and beautiful, with her cascading waves pulled out of her face into a low ponytail, singing along to the music while she strained the pasta.

"Look for the girl with the broken smile! Ask her if she wants to stay a while and she WILLLLL be loved!!! And she WILLLL be loved!" Miley belted.

"Hey there, Beautiful", a voice said behind her, and when Miley turned, her cheeks reddened when she found Nick behind her.

"I, uh…I thought you were taking Grace to the grocery store", she stumbled.

He chuckled. "We came back early".

"Well, where's she now?"

"Mikayla took her to a movie and then there coming back here afterwards".

"Oh", she said shortly and turned back to the pasta.

"So why aren't you dressed yet? Your guests will be here in about an hour" Nick asked, venturing further into the kitchen.

"I had to finish making the pasta", she said nodding towards the limp spaghetti.

"I'll do it", he grinned, and he kissed her. Though it was quick, it was enough to leave Miley breathless.

"Thanks", she grinned at him, and headed into their bedroom. As she passed by her mirror, her wedding ring sparkled in the reflection. She smiled at it. It was the best gift Nick had ever given her.

Voices and laughter overpowered the sweet sounds of Billy Joel in the background, and the smile on Miley's face was genuine as Nick slipped his arm around her waist. "You look beautiful", he whispered in her ear. She replied with a kiss on his cheek and then led him over to Mikayla and her husband Joey.
So far Miley's dress had been a hit. It was made of a soft violet fabric and fell just below above her knees in a bubble skirt. The strapless top left room on her neck for the diamond necklace Nick had given her last Christmas.

"Mickey!", Miley called to Mikayla, and hugged her friend tightly. "I missed you!"

"I missed you too!" Mikayla smiled.

"How was Italy?" Nick conversationalized.

"Beautiful", Joey responded, with his caramel-smooth voice.

"Miley!"

Miley turned to find a very tall Taylor in front of her. "Taylor, hey!"

She hugged her curly-headed friend, and smiled. "How have you been?"

"Fantastic", she grinned a toothy smile. "And I see you've been doing well too. I've met your little Grace".

As she said this, a little girl's tiny face peeped out from behind Taylor's legs. "Mommy!"

"Grace, baby", Miley picked her daughter up and kissed her cheek. "I love you sweetie".

Grace blew a kiss to Miley. She looked just like Nick.

"Excuse me, everyone, can I have your attention please?" Nick called. Everyone finished their conversations and turned to Nick. Just the Way You Are", by Billy Joel, played quietly.

"I just wanted to say happy birthday to the love of my life, Miley Ray. I loved you from the day I met you, and I will never ever stop loving you"

The room erupted in awws and Miley ran to Nick and threw a kiss on his lips.

"I love you sweetie". Nick grinned.

She kissed him again. She couldn't think of any other way to tell him how much she loved him too.
