A/N: It's the end. Its finally here. The last chapter sort of wrote itself this morning. I'm glad you all liked this story, and I couldn't possibly do anything drastic like kill someone off. I definitely wanted a happy ending, and I think Reid & Isobel got theirs. YAY! So another story down, and hopefully I'll b e getting back on track with all of them! :)

Chapter 20 - Miracle

Isobel stared at the large building in front of her, not intimidated by its massiveness. Several weeks ago that would be a different story. She would have entered school with her head hung low—wishing to disappear.

Today, however, was a new day for her, a new start to a good life.

Before Reid she questioned her existence, she didn't know the reason she was put here. Now things were starting to make a little more sense to her. The pieces were finally coming together.

Isobel glanced down at her wrists for a moment and sighed, wondering what her life would have been like without the cancer, without the suicide attempts. She felt a hand slip in to hers and smiled seeing the pale skin of a familiar hand.

Without the cancer—without the suicide attempts, she would have never met Reid. God's hidden angel that helped save her. A blonde haired, blue eyed bad boy who was on a path of destruction, who help rear her of her need to die. The person who made everything alright again.

Isobel squeezed his hand and looked up, meeting those same blue eyes. A grin spread across his face as he leaned in to kiss her. She met him half way and relaxed that much more.

"Ready for the first day of the rest of your life?" He asked quizzically.

The dark haired girl smiled at him with a nod, "I'm ready for anything,"

The blonde grinned at her and pulled her up the steps to the school. She could feel everyone staring at them, mostly the girls. She was waiting for the girls to start whispering back and forth to one another about what a freak she was.

But it never came.

This was a new start, she had to remember. No one knew her hear at Spenser except for Reid, and his friends. Isobel looked up when someone said her name, a small smile formed on her lips when she saw Sarah and Kate waiting for her inside.

"We were wondering where you were, we were getting worried!" Kate grinned looping her arm with Isobel's.

"Seriously, you have first period with us!" Sarah informed her happily. "We'll get you caught up on everything you've missed!"

Reid let Sarah take her away so that the girls could talk, and headed over to his friends, but not before blowing her a kiss and sending a wink in her direction. Isobel flushed brightly and followed Sarah and Kate to the side of the lockers.

"Good morning fellas," Reid beamed to his friends, clamping a hand down on Tyler's shoulder.

A good morning it was too—in Reid Garwin's eyes. He had everything he wanted and everything he needed within arms reach; his three best friends and his girlfriend. He had four of the most amazing people around him that meant more to him than life itself.

"Someone woke up on the right side of the bed this morning," Pogue grinned at his friend, happy to see the blonde happy.

"You could say that," He lifted his chin when he noticed Isobel looking in his direction, a content smile on her face.

He didn't know where he would be now if it wasn't for the pretty brunette girl that was talking quietly with his friends' counterparts. She had helped him find the light when it was dark, she helped him find joy in life again, and most of all she helped him find his strength.

Nothing would teeter his world like it had before, he had found his miracle. She was standing only a few feet away from him, dressed in Spenser uniform, within arms reach. She no longer lived in another city, or went to another school. She was here with him, making a new life for herself, and for him.

The bell rang and Reid glanced at his friends before Isobel walked over to him. She grabbed his hand and tilted her head cutely to the side.

"Ready?" The blonde asked her pulling her close to his side.

Nodding she let him walk her to her first period class, not sure what to expect of the students or the teachers, but now—none of that mattered anymore. She no longer cared what anyone else thought about her, she had the one person who meant everything to her standing beside her.

"Iz," Reid stopped her from walking any further.

Isobel stopped and looked up at him, a hint of curiosity playing in her brown eyes. Reid took both of her hands in his and kissed the tops of them.

"What's up Reid?" She questioned.

"I just," He cleared his throat nervously. "I felt like I needed to tell you this…"

"What?" She was intrigued now, wanting to know what he needed to tell her.

"I was thinking that I'd tell you this somehow all romantic and set the mood," He shook his head sheepishly. "Then I realized that it would be terribly cliché and that's not really my style…"

Isobel stared at him, waiting for him to continue, "Reid… get to the point…"

"Iz, I'm falling in love with you."

The blue of his eyes reflected the light in the hallway, but that didn't make it any more difficult for Isobel to realize that he was telling her the truth. That Reid Garwin was falling in love with her—Isobel Brady.

A ghost of a smile formed on her lips, she dropped his hands and encircled his slim waist, pressing her cheek to his chest. Tilting her chin up just slightly she caught his questioning glance.

"I'm falling in love with you too, Reid Garwin," She pulled herself to her tiptoes and placed an innocent kiss on his lips.

Reid couldn't fight the grin that was forming on his face. He let his hands rest on her cheeks and stared her in the eye, "You mean everything to me, Isobel—everything."

The dark haired girl bit the corner of her lip, feeling a thousand emotions rushing over her. She could hear Sarah and Kate calling her name and waving her in to the classroom, but she didn't care.

She wanted to stay like this for right now. Happily in the arms of the teenage boy that changed everything for her. The one person who made all the bad seem worth it. Reid Garwin had turned her life around, and she had done the same for him.

"I'll see you after class?" He questioned quietly, a smirk forming on his lips.

"You better believe it." She nodded giving him a lasting kiss until she was literally being dragged away from the blonde boy.

Isobel fell in to class, but not before glancing one last time over her shoulder. He hadn't disappeared, she wasn't dreaming. A grin formed on her lips when he winked at her and she knew then that she had found everything she needed in those cerulean blue eyes.
