This is the last chapter , guys :'( I've had this story for over two years now and it's finally over *sniffles* And I told myself I wouldn't cry.

Thank you to those who have stuck with me over the last two years. You guys are amazing! You're the ones who kept me going! Thank you guys so much! :)

Now, onto the last chapter :) Enjoy :)


Rose pov

I automatically pulled away, not regretting the action, but wishing I had waited. I didn't want to turn around, afraid to who was standing there. I turned around and saw a man standing there with Mom.

"Mom," I said warily, "who's this man?"

"This," Mom said, "is Ibrahim Mazur. Your father."

I stared at her in disbelief.

"It's nice to finally meet you, Rosemarie," Ibrahim said.

That night, I got into bed and thought about what life meant to me. To me, life was more than just ordinary; it was something that you had to cherish, something you had to keep safe.

I had my friends, my parents, and the love of my life by my side – supporting me through everything I went through – no matter what happened.

Letting my father come into my life after eighteen years is going to be difficult, but with everyone by my side, I knew I would get through it.

I felt the bed sink under Dimitri's weight. I turned around in the bed to make us face each others. I smiled at me and I smiled back, laying my head on his chest. He wrapped his arms around me, holding me tightly (but not too tight).

"I love you, Roza," he said softly, love evident in his voice.

"We love you, too," I told him. I leaned up and kissed him, him kissing me back.

Right then, I knew that whatever happened, Dimitri would always be by my side; and, I would always be by his side. No matter what.

THE END
