Okay so here is the epilogue, the end of Sweet Silver Lining as we know it, so please just comment about anything, and btw I love the last line I wrote in this, it just seemed to fit (P.S not the happily ever after thing). So this chapter is mainly just about what has happened in the past five years, not a lot of dialogue, but a lot of narration, it sets me up for the sequel, which has still yet to be names (tell me any ideas please). I love this chapter period but my favorite paragraph has to be the last one, has to be the best stuff I have ever written. Once again anyone that helped me, or favorite/alerted this story/reviewed, it meant the world to me. I just started to fool around with writing and it turns out it wasn't half bad, people actually liked it. To this day, no one I know knows that I write, or has ever written anything besides school writing assignments, but anyway. Thank you all and I hope you like it, because I love it and am very proud of this chapter, I am so sad that now I have to press this complete button but to every end there is a beginning. It hurts like hell to write, edit, and post this but I have to move on right? Or as Peyton said "Every song ends, but is that any reason not to enjoy the music?"

Five years later

"Hales were back, we brought dinner." Nathan yelled walking into the house with a six year old Kate, and a five year old Jamie behind him.

"Okay I'm coming." She yelled waddling into the kitchen.

"Hey Baby" Nathan said wrapping his arms around her and kissing her. "All of you" he added putting his hands on her growing stomach.

"We missed you too" Haley replied, she leaned into kiss him when they heard two "Ewws" coming from their children. "So what did you guys get?"Haley questioned.

"Pizza" Jamie said.

Nathan then informed Haley "And a half of the one pizza has pickles and olives."

"Thanks Baby" Haley said leaning into kiss him this time ignoring their children's 'ewws' Haley's pregnancy cravings had been getting the best of her. Four months ago the doctor confirmed Haley's suspicion, they were two months pregnant at the time, now six months. Then a month later they had learned that they were expecting twins! Nathan and Haley were thrilled, twice the fun and twice the blessing. Although they had seemed to forget that in a few short months they would be above their heads in diapers and midnight feedings.

When they told the kids they were ecstatic. Of course Kate wanting them to be girls, Jamie wanting them to be boys. Nathan and Haley would be happy with either, but secretly they each hoped it would be one girl and one boy. Then three months later they learned that their dreams had come true, that four months later they would have two girls and two boys. They had always been proud parents, and this just increased that. They planned on naming them Natalie Grace Scott and Patrick Jacob Scott.

Of course when they informed their friends they were thrilled for them. Brooke got inspiration from it and started a new collection in her popular store Clothes Over Bros, she called it Baby Brooke and it immediately took off, people loved it. It was great because a few months later Brooke learned she was having a baby too, with her husband of about a year Julian Baker. They had met in college, he was becoming a movie producer. Although Brooke still somewhat kept her name Brooke Penelope Davis Baker. They were the power couple in Hollywood, and would make wonderful parents to a baby girl who they planned to name Davis Nathan Baker. After his mother and uncle, Nathan was honored, both him and Haley both were when they asked them to be godparents.

Peyton and Lucas got married two years into college, Lucas being a successful author of two books and his third is about to be published. Peyton owning a record label, where she discovered her good friend Mia Catalano and later Mrs. Haley James Scott with her comeback album about a year ago. They were that epic romance that was set in stone, they have two children three year old Sawyer Brooke Scott, and one year old Adam Keith Scott.

Nathan and Haley had gotten married on the planned day and James made his birth known to the world when Haley went into labor at a college basketball game. Nathan was playing but Lucas came and told him causing Nathan to go frantic and run over to Haley. But he was safe and healthy along with Haley. They had both gone to college and then Nathan took over Whitey's position as coach, he also was gym coach and was in charge of a few homerooms and study halls at Tree Hill High. Haley also worked at Tree Hill High, she taught literature. Haley had gone on tour once after she recorded her second album, Nathan, Kate, and Jamie had gone with her.

Nathan and Haley had been lying in bed later that night.

"Can you believe this is our life?" Haley questioned.

"What we have wonderful jobs, two wonderful kids with two more on the way, and I have a wonderfully amazing wife whom I love with all my heart."

"You're my rock Nathan, my everything, I love you so much I can't breathe when I'm with you, and when I'm not I want to be, it hurts when I'm not around you. I don't know where you get your strength."

"I get it from you" He said looking into her deep brown eyes, he could look into them forever. "How did I get so lucky?" He questioned

"It helps that you're hot." She said jokingly. "I love you Nathan Scott."

"I love you too Haley James Scott. Always and forever." He said meaning every single word, then he kissed her. Every time they kissed it felt like the first time.

"Always and forever" Haley whispered on the verge of sleep.

"I guess our life does have a sweet silver lining." Nathan said then he fell asleep holding his wife whom he loved dearly. In their room which was just down the hall from their children's rooms in which their children were sound asleep in dreaming of candy and toys. In the house they bought after college to hold their growing family. In the neighborhood which was so dear to them, where they grew up, where their children would grow up, and maybe even where their grandchildren with grow up. Tree Hill would always be their home. Nathan and Haley loved each other, and that's all that matters right? Having that one person in your life you can't live without. Well they found it in high school, they were the lucky ones. Not having to search for each other their entire lives, look where it brought them. Together, at this moment in time, completely head over heels in love. And I guess Nathan was right, their life did have a sweet silver lining.

And they all lived happily ever after. The End.

And that's all I wrote! And yes I had to add the happily ever after cheesy thing, but it sets me up for the sequel. The line I was talking about was the one that ends with sweet silver lining
