**6 months later...***
Bride laughed and giggled as I bounced her on my leg; just another 일 at the park. It was summer, finally, a break from school. I guess I was looking 앞으로 to being a sophomore. School wasn't that bad anymore now that I had my friends. Felicity wasn't that bad either. We're not exactly the greatest of friends, but we can tolerate each other now. Also, Trace and I started dating. It was great; he's really sweet and funny. I couldn't ask for a better guy.
"Come on, Harley! Gail said to be 집 의해 three!" Aspen called. Everyone else was already at the sidewalk, starting on their way home. I ran up to catch up to them.
We got home, right at about the time we were supposed to. Gail was 읽기 on the porchswing, with Sky at her feet. I looked off into the distance. There weren't many houses around here. The closest house was down the street, but 당신 could still actually see it from our house. That house had been up for sale for quite a while. Only then did I notice the "sold" sign there. Huh.
"Hey, girls," Gail smiled from the porch. Even though she's now our legal mother, we all still call her Gail. It'd just be weird calling her "Mom." Still, I 사랑 her like I would a mother. I smiled. "Who wants to help me with dinner?" She didn't have to ask. She always has Scout and I help with dinner, while the younger kids play in the house 또는 backyard.
After a nice meal of meatloaf (*couch cough*), Gail set out bowls of mint ice cream; the perfect dessert.
"Did 당신 see that house sold?" Gail asked. We nodded. "Did 당신 meet the family yet?"
"No," Scout answered. Gail smiled.
"Well then, when 당신 girls are done eating, why don't we go say hi?" she suggested. We shrugged. Once we were done, we headed on over to the house. I furrowed my eyes at the car in the driveway. It seemed familiar.... We knocked on the door. It opened.
My 심장 practically burst out of my chest right then and there.
"Nikolai!!" I shouted. I jumped up and wrapped my arms around his neck. He laughed.
"Hey there!" Carmine and Reed emerged from the inside of the house. I couldn't believe it!
"Carmine! Reed! What're 당신 guys doing here?!" My face hurt from smiling so huge.
"We decided we needed a change," Nikolai said.
"And we saved up enough money for a house," Carmine added.
"So we thought we'd 옮기기 out into the country, away from all the city crap," Reed finished. I felt like I was going to explode from happiness overload! This as just amazing! Not even in a million years would I have thought I'd be able to have all the people I loved together with me.
"Well, aren't 당신 guys gonna come in?" Carmine smiled. We went in, and were given a tour of the house.
Now everything is perect, I corrected myself.
The End. ♥

To think, most of my character names come from a thrift store baby book!
