EPILOGUE

Tig didn't go home. He lost himself in drink and women. Finding anywhere that wasn't the house he'd shared with Kozik to stay. He'd barely spoken to anyone at the club, especially not Clay. The man might have still been his president but he wasn't his friend. Gemma tried to talk to him. Pass on her sympathies but he didn't want to hear it. He didn't care. He just let himself drown in anything but the pain Kozik's loss brought him.

He'd thought he was broken, shattered. Completely this time. That there was nothing else for him to lose. Then Clay was shot and that's when he discovered that he still had two things' left to lose, and that losing either of them might just kill him.

THE END


A/N: Well that's it. It's over. Well, kinda. You don't have to worry that I won't be writing any more Tikozi. This isn't the last you'll see from this universe. I've still got a fic idea that covers Kozik's eight years away from Charming. I might even write something covering the beginning of season three. There's also a wealth of oneshot story I can set during Kozik's prospecting. And when I've done all of those there's the joys of AU. I've already got a couple of ideas floating around. So it's clear to say Tikozi will live on with me. As for writing something into season five, well I've got to finish watching the season first. They've only just started showing it in the UK and I want to see what the season has in store before I start messing around with it.

Anyho. I hope that you enjoyed this story, despite the pain. As always it was a joy to write. I truely do love playing with these two.

Just one thing about the season finale of season four. Did all of you know what Tig was going to do when he left the hospital? Cause I was yelling at the screen, like Chibs could actually hear me. I was scream that Tig was going to go and do something stupid and that they had to stop him. It still infuriates me when I watch it now, because those guys have known him for years, they know what he's like, how he thinks. How the fuck didn't they know that he was going to go shoot up the niners? I mean seriously. OBVIOUS! right? Sometimes I just want to knock there damn heads together. If they'd been paying closer attention then all the shit that goes down in season five wouldn't have happened. I like to think Kozik wouldn't have seen it though, and stopped Tiggy. Hell, maybe I'll write that fic. Maybe.

Anyway. That's all from me for now. Would like to thank all of you wonderful people for supporting me and this story and sending me such wonderful reviews. They're always a joy to read. I love you all so much, you have no idea and I hope to hear from you again soon. If you want to keep track of what I'm doing, and whether I'm working on any Tikozi you can find me on Tumblr (I'm a little obsessed with that place right now) and you'll find everything Tig and Kozik related in the Tizoki tag.

Well, it's time to go. See you all again soon and remember

Don't fear the reaper. lol
