Things only got harder without Luca, but luckily Grey was there for it all. The breakdowns, the tears, the agony.. Grey was my biggest source of support, he even got Roderick to leave me alone. However, I didn't just sit and rely on Grey, not at all.

I decided to ensure that Declan, Garrett, and Luca hadn't died in vain. In their honour, I found the main man behind those horrid games and got him behind bars. I hosted an annual parade in Garrett's honour. I made their death day a holiday to commemorate your loved ones. I made a whole museum of Declan's inventions and blueprints. It all sounded easier said than done, but it was all worth it at the end of the day.

I lived fifty years after them all. I adopted a wonderful little girl, Clarity, and raised her to be just as selfless as Declan and Garrett. I raised her to be as honoured as Luca and as warm as I. I could see Luca's smile within her own, and sometimes I found raising her to be quite hard without my dearest Luca, but I knew it was right. I got to watch this wonderful child grow, and I knew he was proud of me.

I outlived Grey, and that was a sad day. I wasn't able to leave my room for weeks after his passing, but I again had to remember how he wouldn't want me to sit and mourn him, he'd want me to carry on stronger than before. So I got a park renamed after him. I didn't want him to disappear, despite being the God of One Sided Love, I still didn't want him to disappear.

If only I had known that fifteen years after Grey and five after Raven would I be on my own death bed, my twenty-five year old daughter at my bedside. I had fallen ill, and now I could see the other side. I could see my mother and father on the other side, Garrett smiling from the other side, Declan waving from the other side - Luca crying from the other side.. Grey awaiting me from the other side and Raven softly smiling from within the clouds.. I missed them, and I knew I really had.

"Clarity, dear.." I looked up at her, she knew this was it and I could see it in her eyes. "I love you very much."

"I love you too, mum.." She started to sob, and it broke my heart to see it.

"Don't cry, baby.." I smiled, softly. "Just as your father had once told me, this isn't a goodbye, but rather a delayed hello."

".. Alright.." She held my hand, before my world went black. Like everyone else's stories, mine had finally come to an end, but I was content with how it ended.
