At first, Juliet had not believed that Gnomeo was in any way serious about moving. She had thought that it was a whim because of what had happened. They'd gone to bed wrapped around each other and she'd been so engrossed in him that it left her mind. But when she woke up, she knew it was not just a whim of his.

"What's all this?" She asked, sleepily as a stray paper tickled her nose. Gnomeo was sitting up in bed, pillows pressed behind his back. Papers were littered around him as he sat in his bathrobe, which was just opened a little at the top to show his broad and toned chest.

"Good morning." He grinned. Violet was talking to herself in baby gibberish in her crib that was next to the bed while Shroom watched Violet intently. Gentle sunlight danced on the white sheets.

"What are you doing?" She asked, smiling.

"I thought I'd work from bed today." Gnomeo replied.

"On what?" Juliet said as she sat up next to him.

"London. Look here, this is where I want to build you a house." Juliet's heart melted a little as she looked at his papers all marked up with his handwriting.

"Gnomeo." She breathed. "I can't believe all this." There were plans for everything.

"And look babe, this is where Dad's company is going to be. And over here is a little park that I figure Violet will love, and there's a little bakery that's supposed to be really good right here." He moved her finger gently across the map.

"I didn't know you were so serious about this."

He turned to look at her. "And you weren't?"

Juliet thought for a moment. Her next answer would change everything. She thought of her life here. Nanette, her father, Gnomeo's mother. Then she thought of what was bad. The hatred they had faced, their feuding families, Sowden's treachery. She made her choice then and there.

"I'm serious if you are."

Gnomeo smiled and kissed her cheek. "Good, because Jules I have so many plans for us." Juliet smiled and leaned on his shoulder. "I can't wait."

"We're going to have the life we always wanted." He promised.

"Being with you is all I ever wanted." She told him honestly as she stretched out next to him.

"I love you so much." Gnomeo said, his voice full of happiness. She looked up surprised and smiled.

"I love you too."

Featherstone returned to take care of some things at the end of that week and Gnomeo and Juliet met him at their home. He'd brought Adelia along too.

"Adelia, this is Gnomeo and Juliet Bluebury." He'd happily introduced them.

"Yes, you're the crazy kids who helped return my husband to me." Adelia replied with a smile.

"Wait you guys are married now?" Gnomeo exclaimed.

"We figured, why wait?" Featherstone explained.

"That's so wonderful." Juliet told him earnestly.

Featherstone looked happier than words could say. "And how's my little goddaughter?" He asked.

"She's already getting so big." Juliet told him as he took Violet in his arms.

"She is!" He laughed as they went to sit down for lunch. At lunch, Gnomeo explained the situation to Featherstone. Finally he said, "You two really want to move?"

"I do." Gnomeo answered. "It's the only way I'll ever feel happy and safe."

"What about your parents?" Adelia asked delicately.

Gnomeo and Juliet looked at each other. "They won't support us but they'll understand." Juliet told them.

"Trust me, it's not easy to leave them behind." Gnomeo quipped. Juliet nodded in agreement.

"But they have money and people to care for them and we're not going to cut them off."

Featherstone looked not sold. Gnomeo was surprised at this reaction but Juliet continued.

"Look, here in New York, we can't have normal lives. We'll always have this stigma for what we did. We can't move on and have lives because the things that happened keep coming back like ghosts. At first, even I was hesitant but this is our chance. London has always been our chance to start over and get away from it all. If we don't take this chance, I'm afraid there won't be another."

Gnomeo took Juliet's hand in his. "She's right, and if we're going to really do this, we'll need your help." He said.

Featherstone smiled, "I'd be glad to help. Anything to repay what you've done for me."

The following weeks were a blur. Gnomeo met with associates to permantly buy back the company and move it to London. Juliet looked at properties that Featherstone sent. She and Gnomeo needed the perfect land to build their dream house. The news hadn't been taken well by their parents but both and learned that no matter what they bargained or how much they pleaded, it was useless. There was one person who Juliet wasn't sure of though. This person was Nanette. Nanette had been living with them and caring for Violet and doing what she had done for Juliet when they lived with her father. But Juliet also knew that Nanette might still have a thing with Paris. In that case, she didn't want Nanette to not get her happy ending too. She truthfully was afraid to ask.

But as the date they were leaving was fast approaching, she knew she couldn't put it off anymore.

"Nanette, can I talk to you?" She asked one morning as they were watching Violet.

"Of course." Nanette replied not even looking up from her catalogue.

"So we're moving in a week and I was wondering if you were planning on going too."

Nanette looked up, surprised.

"I mean, if you want to stay for Paris, I understand. But I just didn't know and I was afraid to ask and I mean I would totally want you to come and I know Gnomeo would to but I don't want you to feel like you have to an oh-" Nanette stopped her.

"Julie, baby, it's alright."

"What do you mean?" Juliet asked, sadly.

"Honestly, I don't know right now. It depends on Paris, but if this is going where I think it's going then I'm going to stay." Nanette said from her heart.

"I just want you to be happy, whatever that is." Juliet whispered, hugging her friend in all her emotion.

"I know." Nanette replied hugging her back. As Juliet laid her head on Nanette's shoulder, she sighed. She would miss her friend very much. Nanette had been there for her when no one else could have been. Nanette had cared for her and kept her secret and Juliet owed her the world.

On the last day before they were supposed to leave, Gnomeo and Juliet stood in their empty house. Boxes were piled around them and it felt empty and abandoned.

"Are you ready to go?" She asked him.

"I think so." Gnomeo replied. "I have the passports and the papers and the plans all here. Why?"

"There's nothing you have to do?" She asked.

"No, I don't think so." He turned to look at her. "Jules, is there something you need to do?"

"I want to go to the cemetery. To say goodbye to my mother." Juliet told him, seriously.

"That's a good idea, my dad is there too." Gnomeo said thoughtfully. "Let's go before it gets dark."

Gnomeo and Juliet rode to the cemetery in thoughtful silence. A chill lingered in the late afternoon air and Juliet wished for some sunlight so she wouldn't have to rely so much on her velvet cloak. The cemetery was mostly empty of other living people when they arrived.

"We won't be too long." Gnomeo told the driver as he helped Juliet down.

For Gnomeo, it had been a while since he had visited his father's grave. For a while, it had been a ritual for his mother and him. Eventually, Gnomeo had stopped going, mostly because it made him feel sad and powerless and he hated that. His mother hadn't stopped visiting and that was obvious when they found the grave still surrounded by blooming wisteria and blue flowers.

"Do you want to be alone?" Juliet asked him, kindly.

Gnomeo shook his head. They stood there in silence for a moment before Gnomeo spoke.

"I didn't know him that well. I mean I did, but I didn't." Juliet nodded, not saying anything.

"I always knew that I was like him, and I was going to take after him but I don't have many real memories of him."

"He would be proud if he saw you now." Juliet reminded him.

"Yeah, I wish he hadn't died, sometimes." Gnomeo said, his voice thick. He felt very sad and cold.

"I know." Juliet replied.

"You can go on, and find your mom and I'll find you." He told her.

"Alright." Juliet whispered. He listened for her retreating footsteps and sighed He hadn't wanted her to see him get upset. He sat down on the hard ground next to the marble slab and blue flowers. He wished his father could talk to him and at least say he was happy with everythinfg Gnomeo had done.

Juliet walked on, finding her mother's grave easily. For a moment, her mind flashed back to the day of the funeral. Harsh sunlight had beat down as she'd stood by her father in a rough black velvet dress with tears on her cheeks. It made her feel better to know that she wasn't that lost little girl anymore. The grave was less decorated than Gnomeo's fathers had been. Juliet stole a red rose from a neighboring bouquet and laid it gently across the bottom of the tombstone.

I hope you are happy with me. She thought to herself. I love you so much and I know that if you were here, you'd be so proud of me and my family and everyone. Dad and I miss you a lot. She felt tears dancing on her eyes and she allowed herself a precious few, wiping them away with her gloved hand.

I love you mom

She heard Gnomeo coming behind her and felt his arms around her instantly.

"You okay?" He asked and she turned to face him.

Juliet took a deep breath. "Yes."

"You've been crying?" He asked concerned. His thumbs brushed her tear tracks.

"Only a little." She admitted and he drew her closer to him. They stayed like that for a while, her head on his heart. Just the sound of his heart and the rise and fall of his steady breathing made her feel so grateful to be alive with him.

As they were walking out, a grave caught her eye. "Look." She said to Gnomeo. "It's Charles Sowden." His tombstone was small but stature. All it said was his name, not even dates. He wasn't a beloved anything and no one had bothered with an RIP or a bible verse. Juliet couldn't imagine who would even make sure he had a proper burial.

"He was a bastard." Gnomeo said as they stopped to look at it.

"He was." Juliet agreed. "I guess all his crimes finally caught up with him. Although I can't imagine who would make sure he had this burial."

"Rosalie." Gnomeo said simply.

"Rosalie would have." Juliet exclaimed, agreeing. "I nearly forgot about her."

"Yeah she never tried to contact us and I guess we shouldn't have expected much else." Gnomeo replied.

"I wonder what happened to her, like how's she doing." Juliet said, looking down at the grave.

"Yeah, but part of me thinks we don't want whatever mess that is in our lives." Gnomeo responded and Juliet laughed a little.

"Are you ready to go?" He asked, abruptly.

"Yes." Juliet replied, leaning on his arm as they left the cemetery and its ghosts behind.

That night, they had to sleep on a lone mattress under a blanket they weren't taking with them. The good things like the bedframe and silk sheets were already on their way to London. A dying fire cast a glowy light around the room and Juliet lay underneath it waiting for Gnomeo. She became so engrossed in her thoughts that she didn't see him come in. It wasn't until the [CG1] mattress shifted with his weight that she realized he was there

Hey." She whispered as he put his arms around her.

"You look so beautiful tonight." He whispered kissing her neck gently, making her shiver in a good way. She turned over and their lips met, gentle at first but slowly deepening. His hands slid down her body and she held his face gently. Finally, they pulled apart from the kiss and she gazed at him.

"Tomorrow's the day."

"I know." He replied with a happy grin. "Are you ready?"

"Yeah." Juliet whispered. "I am I think"

"Me too." He said. "I can't believe it's really happening."

"And this time, Sowden isn't going to take over our boat and lead a crowd of angry people to the dock to come after us." Juliet added with a small laugh.

"Yeah thank god." Gnomeo agreed. It was strange that they were sort of laughing over what had been a horrible ordeal's beginning.

As Juliet closed her eyes, she couldn't believe it was her last night here. It made her heart race a little, but as Gnomeo's arms tightened around her, she knew everything would be alright.

The next morning, they had to wake up early. It was a cloudy and drizzly morning but that didn't stop Gnomeo from loading the carriage with their suitcases and trunks. As they left the empty house for the last time, Juliet gazed up at the buildings and the sky. Around them, the city was carrying on around them. There were some things like the hustle and bustle of a New York street that never changed. It almost made her feel nostalgic. When they got to the docks, they found a small group waiting to see them off.

As Gnomeo went to register their luggage, Juliet stood with them surprised at the turnout. Tybalt, Benny, Lady Bluebury, Lord Redbrick, Nanette and Paris had all come to say goodbye. It made Juliet happy. Finally the whistle blew, signaling that the boat would leave soon.

"I guess this time to go." Gnomeo said, with some finality and Juliet's heart dropped.

A quick hug from Tybalt and a handshake from Benny followed suit. After Lady Bluebury finished loudly embracing her son, she hugged her granddaughter tightly, wiping her eyes dramatically. The women made eye contact for a brief moment and Juliet hugged her lightly.

"Take care of him." Lady Bluebury whispered, almost a hiss, in her ear.

"I will." Juliet promised. "I'll do my best."

Next, her father hugged her too. What an awful lot of hugging, she thought. There was a deep sadness in his dark eyes and she felt sorry for him.

"Is there anything I can do, to make you stay?" He asked, huskily.

"No." Juliet told him and he sighed.

"Be good." He told her, simply. He couldn't find the real words he wanted to tell her. He doubted he ever would.

"I will." She promised again.

"And Juliet?" He added.

"What?" Juliet replied.

"Your mother would be proud." Juliet looked at him, and felt a surge of affection for her father.

"I know. She'd be proud of you too."

"Oh I don't know…" Lord Redbrick quietly trailed off as Juliet kissed his rough cheek.

Finally, came Nanette and Juliet couldn't even talk. Nanette's arms and perfume scent were all too familiar and Juliet felt like a little girl again.

"Don't cry." Nanette told her, almost sharp.

"I wish you were coming." Juliet said, honestly.

"You'll be fine darling. You were born ready for this." Nanette consoled her.

"I'll miss you." Juliet said, trying not to break down and cry like a baby.

"It's not goodbye. I'll visit, I'll write, it's not goodbye when it's best friends." Nanette promised

Juliet hugged her friend a little tighter for the moment she had left.

Gnomeo didn't enjoy goodbyes. It had been hard enough going to the cemetery. Now, he was being forced to say goodbye to his family.

"You know I never thanked you for saving my life in the ocean." Tybalt told Gnomeo as the men shook hands.

"It was nothing." Gnomeo said. He hadn't expected nor wanted thanks from Tybalt. He had wanted to save him because he didn't think he could live with letting a man die on his conscience.

"No. It wasn't. I owe you one." Tybalt replied.

"You don't." Gnomeo insisted.

Tybalt rolled his eyes. "Whatever you say." But Gnomeo knew that that wasn't how debt worked. Tybalt still owed him anyways.

It wasn't particularly hard to say goodbye to Lord Redbrick. The men had always been distant too each other. In some ways, Gnomeo regretted it. Lord Redbrick would have been a good father figure. But he also knew, that Lord Redbrick didn't trust him with his daughter and that made him feel sad because he would never do anything to hurt Juliet.

"If you hurt her, I'll make sure you live to regret it." Lord Redbrick mumbled. Gnomeo had known it was coming.

"I wouldn't worry if I was you." He said, plainly.

His mother was next and she embraced him tenderly. "I'm sorry we couldn't make you stay." She said, in her usual dramatic and sad way. "I know." Gnomeo told her, patting her back.

"Now, be a good boy. And don't lose touch." She told him.

"Will do." Gnomeo agreed.

"You're my son and you were my son first and you'll always be my son. Don't you forget it." She said, with a hint of darkness in her voice.

"I won't forget." Gnomeo promised as the horn blew again. Now they really had to go.

"It's time." Juliet told him and he nodded.

"Goodbye!" Juliet called and like that they were being shuffled inside an ocean liner. Like last time, they stood on the deck to watch the take off. However unlike last time, their family was there to watch them say goodbye. If the Gnomeo and Juliet of then and seen the Gnomeo and Juliet of today, they would have been surprised at the transformation.

Gnomeo was no longer the naïve boy with a plan to escape. He was a husband and a father who had been to the edge and back. His face was wiser and he was stronger. As he stood on the dock in a gray overcoat, he did feel a sense of contentment. He had Violet in one arm her head rest on his shoulder. Juliet had dressed her in a beige coat and hat set and she looked very cute. His grip instinctively tightened around his daughter. Her whole life was ahead of her and he was determined to make sure it was perfect and that she was happy and safe. His other arm was around Juliet. She too, looked older and wiser and stronger. Instead of a scared and excited young girl, she more resembled a proud lady in her lavender purple coat, her brown curls blowing a little from underneath her hat. To him, Juliet was still the most beautiful woman he had seen. He still felt his heart race when he saw her and everyday she still gave him reasons to smile and fall in love with her more. He never felt that he had made a mistake by loving her. Their love had started as something so wrong and so wonderful and grown into something that not even death could break and when he had promised her forever- he had meant it.

Juliet leaned against Gnomeo and watched as the people on the dock became farther away. Violet was squealing in excitement as scattered drops of water sprayed them. Juliet smiled at her tiny daughter with her very same nose and Gnomeo's blonde hair. In her eyes, Violet was the most perfect little human and Juliet knew she would have the happiest of childhoods. A little farther up and she made eye contact with her husband. Even now, his eyes could take her breath away for a moment. He flashed her his signature grin and held her tightly. Juliet was so grateful to be with such a man. She couldn't think of anyone who was stronger, as loving, as kind, and as perfect as Gnomeo. She loved everything about him. From the moment they met, she had known that he was special and different and no matter what happened, there was a constant – their love. She had a feeling they would be very happy.

Their cheeks were flushed from the wind and they didn't know what the future held but they were a happy little family. As the boat drifted away, Gnomeo kissed her lips romaticallly.

"What was that for?" She asked with the slightest little grin.

"Don't you know?" He teased back.

"Is it because you just love me so much?" Juliet replied, laughing.

"It was, Jules. I do love you very much." Gnomeo told her.

"I love you too."

And it goes without saying that he was her endless love and she was his. And throughout the years, one thing would remain constant. Gnomeo and Juliet would always be each other's Endless Love.
