A/N: This is the last chapter; I've decided to end it basically because I feel it's time and I have more stories going on that I need to be more focused on. I hope you all enjoy the ending, and again, I appreciate all the reviews and support. They mean a lot to me.💜  Plus a little smuttyness 😉

Wedding vow renewal is a ceremony for a married couple who would like to recommit themselves to each other with a ceremony. It's been ten years since Stella and Kelly secretly went to Hawaii and got married. So they decided on their tenth wedding anniversary to renew their vows in front of their family and friends.

The last ten years were filled with so much happiness. Not that every day was a good day; bad days came along. That's just part of life; you have good days and you have bad days. But Stella always made sure her good days out weighted her bad ones.

After Benny went on a shooting spree the night of Dream Teams opening, he was arrested live on TV. Stella and Kelly got to witness the FBI take him down and haul him away. He went to court two weeks later, and they, along with Kelly's family and Stella's parents, were in the courtroom when he got life in prison for killing two police officers. And was indicted and charged for all the charges the FBI had on him. Basically  getting life and prison with no parole.Kelly was beaming with happiness as they took his dad away. Kelly paid for the two officers funerals and started a college fund for their kids.

Summer was released thanks to Zoey, but she wasn't happy that Benny was locked up. She moved to Florida and hasn't talked to them in nine years. Kelly wasn't surprised by her decision, unlike Jennifer, who hated that she cut her out of her life. Summer was the only one to visit him in prison; Kelly wanted to but decided it was best to pretend he didn't exist. He was officially out of his life, and Kelly wanted to enjoy his new life without his father's input.

About six months after he got locked up, Benny was beaten to death in prison. Zoey said it was probably people he knew—people who he did dirty or people who hate cop killers. Either way, Kelly had no love loss; he paid to have him cremated and sent to Florida. Apparently Summer wanted his ashes, so Kelly made sure she had them. Knowing Benny could no longer interfere in his life brought him such happiness. Even Sarah was relieved knowing he couldn't contact her or her kids anymore.

Their company has become one of the most successful sporting agencies in the world. Everything Kelly has ever wanted to achieve company-wise has come true. He owns it all to Stella, which he says in every interview he gives. Stella made his dreams a reality, not just career-wise. But in every aspect of his life.

Of course they didn't move to Hawaii like Kelly suggested. After Benny got arrested, Stella told Kelly that night how she felt about moving to Hawaii and how excited she was about her new opportunities with the company and starting their family in Chicago. Kelly honestly didn't want to move to Hawaii either; he just wanted out of the spotlight. Even though after Benny's arrest, the media only got worse. Kelly had to hire private security to follow him and Stella everywhere they went. They had to have security outside the company and their home. After Benny was killed, the media went stir crazy. It got so bad that Kelly and Stella didn't leave their house for almost four months. They ran the company from home and had their groceries and other stuff delivered; the only time they left the house was when Stella had a doctor's appointment. It took the media months to finally move on to another story.

The stress of everything had Stella going into labor at twenty-nine weeks. Their baby boy was born at three pounds and one ounce. Little Austin Jamie Severide was a small baby, but a fighter. Stella was so worried and scared, but the doctor told them that with the kind of care that we are able to provide today, the majority of babies born prematurely will survive and do well. He spent his first two and a half months of life in the hospital. And now he is a hyperactive, talkative, smart, fun-loving, comic book-loving nine-year-old.
