I'd like to thank everyone for reading this and for sticking with me as I write this. I had this idea back in high school and I'm glad I got to write this. Look for the sequel as soon as I finish writing it and posting it up. I will let you know in one of my stories.
But for now enjoy this epilogue and remember that not all stories have a happy ending.
Epilogue
2 days later
Lily sat on the edge of her bed, her bag beside her all packed with her clothes and necessities. She held a newly written letter in her hands. After everything that had happen; from almost getting killed to witnessing her father's death to finding out the sister she never knew about brought Johnny back from the dead, she needed time to figure things out and to be alone. And sadly the only way she could do this was leave. A lone tear streaked down her cheek before she wiped it away. She stood up, slung her bag over her shoulder, and set the letter on her bed. Lily stepped through the door instead of opening it the old fashion way, not wanting to wake anyone up in the early morning. She waked quietly down the steps, through the living room, and onto the balcony. Lily rose and stood on the banister, standing on the same spot where she had seen Johnny dead. She took a deep breath and was a bout to take a step off the banister when she heard a voice.
"Where are you going?" Johnny's voice asked her.
Lily froze. She slowly turned and sat on the banister. She kept her head down as Johnny stood in front of her.
"You're leaving," Johnny said after he noticed her bag.
She nodded as a tear leaked out of her eye. Johnny lifted her chin up with a finger.
"Why?"
"Because I have to," She whispered. "I need some time alone so I can figure things out."
"But you can figure things out here," Johnny said as he wiped her tear away.
"I know, but I can't do it without remembering my father die and you on the-" Lily said.
Johnny interrupted, "Don't, I understand. You need this."
He grabbed her hand and brought it up to his chest as he caressed her cheek with the other. Lily closed her eyes and leaned into his hand.
"I wish you didn't have to go," Johnny whispered. "I love you."
Lily let out a sob and he held her as she cried. Moments passed as she let out her tears. Soon it stopped and she leaned back.
"I love you too," Lily whispered.
Johnny smiled, "You call me. Twice a week."
Lily laughed, "It's a deal."
Silence ensued as Johnny ran the pad of his thumb against her cheek.
"Flirting's harmless," he whispered, "but it's the-"
"Kiss that's deadly," Lily finished for him.
Johnny leaned forward just as Lily did and their lips met. They kissed as Lily wrapped a hand around his neck and set the other on his cheek. Johnny ran his hands through her hair. She gathered her senses together and pushed him.
"First kiss?" Johnny whispered as he leaned back.
Lily nodded as she set her forehead against his.
"Probably the best eighteenth birthday present you ever had," Johnny whispered again.
Lily laughed.
"Happy Birthday."
"Thank you Johnny," Lily whispered as she leaned back and stood up.
Johnny let her go as she stepped off the banister and floated in the air. She turned and faced Johnny.
"I don't know how long I'll be, but I'll be back," Lily said.
"And I'll be waiting," Johnny said.
Lily gave him a small, sad smile and she turned around. She flew off into the sky without a backwards glance as Johnny watched.
