Weird question... but do you want an epilogue?

Listen to once in a lifetime by one direction while reading this for a better 'experience'.

Enjoy:)!

Lia's p.o.v

     It was the day of his funeral. Broken, it's what I was. I closed my eyes, I heard someone call my name, it sounded like him.

I swallowed so hard, as I walked out of my bedroom door. All my brothers were wearing black suits, they were waiting for me.

Jason's father told me to prepare a speech, because I was one of the closest people to Jason.

It feels weird to see Tom without Jason.

We arrived at the graveyard, I held Owen's hand, and he lead me to Jason's grave.

It also feels weird to say Jason's grave.

All around were crying, and some were screaming 'no... Jason didn't die,' and I don't know why but I feel like they're blaming me.

We prayed for his soul, then all of us were seated in a row. People talked about him, and how amazing Jason was.

•ok now start listening to Once in a lifetime•

In the corner of my eyes, I can see Jacob looking guilty. Then behind him, was Jonah. Even though Jonah never met Jason, he came to show his respect.

They're bad guys, but they can't take this moment away.

"It's your turn, Lia," Owen whispered.

"Oh," I breathed. As I walked up the stage, everyone was looking at me, they were waiting for me to speak.

"G-good morning, everyone... for the ones who don't know me, I was Jason's girlfriend. My name is Lia, I remember when I first saw him, he was leaning on my locker, and let me just tell you, that kid was popular in his first day, because my brother told everyone about him."

Flashback

"excuse me" I said, but he did not hear me. "Excuse me"

"Oh, hey" he removed his headphones, and turned to me, I realized that the guy was the new kid.

"Oh, you" my eyes widened.

"Me?" He raised a brow.

"You're famous" I chuckled. "Uh can you move a little?"

"What do you mean?" He moved to the other locker.

"My brother found your comment on Instagram, and kind of stalked you, he told the whole school about you, and now they're waiting for you" I explained.

"This is the first day of school, and I'm famous? And I already met a beautiful girl, wow! I'm loving this school already" he grinned.

"Ha Ha" I rolled my eyes playfully.

"I'm serious. Anyway, I'm Jason" He lifted his hand up a little for me to shake.

"I'm Lia" I shook his hand, smiling.

"Nice name, Lia" Jason winked at me.

Flashback ends.

"And I remember telling him not to be friends with my stupid brothers, because I wanted him to be mine, only mine.

Jason helped us with a project in the past, and I remember clearly that I wrote The alphabet begins with abc, Numbers begin with 123, Music begins with do-re-mi
And friendship begins with you and me.

Who knew that our friendship could turn to relationship?

He lied to Owen, he told him that he looks like he was the youngest, but we all know that was a lie

Jason was m-" my voice cracked.

"Jason was my best friend before he became my boyfriend. That's what made us special, that's what made us closer. As long as we both had each other, even if we're thousands of miles apart, we stood up for each other, especially Jason. Jason tried to help me even though I broke up with him.

When Jason died, I thought I'd never move on with my life, but I think he would want me to move on and live my life. He'd want me to get married, and start a family. I think he'd want me to tell my kids and my grandkids, about our love story.

Although, I still hear his voice in my head, and even when I close my eyes, I feel like he's by my side.

Last night, right after he died, somehow I felt him with me, and I did feel safe. I felt that he was watching over me, and I knew that even the bad guys aka who tried to kidnap me, and who killed Jason or even who helped kill Jason, they can't take it away, they can't make me feel unsafe.

Right now, I feel him sitting and listening to my speech about him...

And Jason, if you're listening..

Just know that

Once in a lifetime, you were mine."
