A/N: Thank you so much for all the lovely reviews, dolls! Okay, I thought today would be the perfect day to update all of my stories and post my new ones because HTR Cee Lo is tomorrow and...Halston Sage replied to one of my tweets! Might as well put my happiness into writing, right? Sadly, this is the last chapter of Dear Zander. Before I get to replies, I want to remind you to write one-shots, update your stories quicker, write new stories, and post Zevie pictures/videos throughout all of December since it's Zevie month! Have you spread the word yet? You better! Okay, now let's get to replies.

Reflections of Twilight: I made you a Zevie fan? Cool! I do mention a lot of other shows, huh? I think it makes stories funnier so that's why I do it!

Elizabeth: Aw, thank you so much! I inspired you to write stories? Okay, if it's a How to Rock story, it's only fair that I check it out!

Again, thanks, guys! Alright, did anyone see the HTR Cee Lo sneak peeks? In the mayo one, it's definitely Ali Castro in the back. Next, did anyone else see how Stevie was gripping Zander's arm in "Just Kacey"? To make it all better, in "Gravity Dreams", Zander/Max says, "Sup, baby." Major fan girl-ing moment right there! So, ready to see if Zander finds Stevie? By the way, no flashback! Hope you enjoy this last chapter!

I don't own How to Rock or Gilmore Girls.

[Zander]

Right after the words leave the waiter's mouth, I widen my eyes. Grace, Kacey, Nelson, and Kevin all drop their jaws.

The guy behind the bar, Luke, states, "She's using one of her sick days."

Jess, the waiter, groans and stomps to the kitchen of the diner muttering, "She hasn't been to work in over a week."

The woman drinking coffee replies, "Hey, be nice to Stevie. Poor thing just got her heart broken."

That immediately made the girls gasp. At once, all five of us ran over to the bar and in front of the woman. She puts down her coffee and furrows her eyebrows. I sit down in the spinning stool beside her and stick out my hand.

"Hi, I'm Zander."

She tilts her head and asks, "Do I know you from somewhere?"

Kevin nods and answers, "He's the guy that broke Stevie's heart."

Kacey punched him in the arm while a look of realization hit the woman's face.

She shakes my hand saying, "Oh yeah. You know, you've got some nerve to break her heart over email."

I groan and shout, "It wasn't me!"

Everyone in the diner turns to look at us. With one look from the woman, they immediately turn away.

She looks back at me and asks, "What are you guys doing here? Don't you live in California?"

Nelson takes a seat in the stool behind me while explaining, "He really wanted to see Stevie so he made all of us come here and find her since she never told him where she actually lives."

Grace leans over to the woman and whispers, "It's totes adorbs, right?"

I roll my eyes, face the woman, and question, "Could you please just tell me where she lives? Please?"

The woman shrugs and answers, "Yeah, sure."

She pulls a stack of Post Its out of her purse, rips one out, sticks it the counter, and starts writing on it.

The flannel shirt guy, Luke, snatches the pen out of her hands and hisses, "Lorelai!"

The woman, obviously Lorelai, questions, "What?"

Luke rolls his eyes and yells, "You can't just give away one of my worker's address!"

Lorelai scoffs, "Come on, Luke. The kids in love! Don't you remember him from Stevie's pictures?"

Luke responds, "Yeah, sure, but it doesn't matter!"

He points a finger at her before adding, "If you give him Stevie's address, I will cut you off from your coffee."

He slams the pen down on the before and walks into the kitchen.

Lorelai looks back at me and apologizes, "Sorry, kid, but I need my coffee."

I sigh and prepare to walk away, but she grabs my arm so I turn back to her. Lorelai reaches behind the bar, pulls out a bag, puts her half-eaten donut into it, and continues to write on her Post It.

Still writing, she orders, "Go deliver this donut to this address."

I furrow my eyebrows and state, "I don't work here, and you already ate it."

She rolls her eyes, sticks the Post It on the bag, and hands it to me saying, "I don't care. Just go give it to that address."

Kacey takes a step forward and replies, "But we don't work here."

Our waiter, Jess, walks behind the bar and offers, "I'll go deliver it."

Lorelai shakes her head, gives me a deep look, and slowly commands, "Go deliver this to the address on this Post It."

Behind me, Nelson starts, "But we don't..."

Lorelai interrupts him, "Just go deliver the donut!"

Once Grace parks her car, she mumbles, "I can't believe that woman is making us deliver her donut."

From the backseat, Kevin adds, "It's not even a whole donut."

I sigh and respond, "Let's just get this over with. Tomorrow, we are going door-to-door if that's what it takes to find Stevie."

I open the car door, hop out, and close it. After looking both ways, I walk across the street and towards the average house the woman gave me the address to. As I reach the front yard, I look up at the sky and realize that it's about to rain. I groan and jog towards the door. When I finally get there, I knock on it and wait just as I hear rain pouring behind me.

Inside the house, a voice questions, "Who is it?!"

I answer, "Um, Luke's Diner?"

The same voice shouts, "You sound unsure!"

I roll my eyes, just wanting to get this over with, and reply, "I'm supposed to deliver something to you!"

"I didn't order anything!"

I shrug, trying to think of something to say. "Um, Lorelai's treat!"

"Whatever you're selling, I'm not buying!"

I shake my head and put the paper bag on the porch swing to the right. "Listen, I'm putting it on the porch swing!"

No response. I sigh and turn around to see it heavily raining. I groan and step off of the porch. The raindrops immediately land on me, making me wet from head-to-toe. I shake my head and start walking towards the car. When I reach the mailbox, I hear the door to the house open.

I turn around saying, "Hey, I put it on the..."

I immediately stop when my eyes land on one thing: A pair of black high-tops with words on the white part. I start looking up to see ripped shorts, a grey v-neck, a flannel shirt with sleeves rolled up to the elbows, and finally straight brown hair. I look at the face of the person, only to meet a pair of hazel eyes that I haven't seen in 5 months.

Knowing that she can't hear, I whisper, "Stevie."

She gapes as she walks off of her porch and over to me, not even caring that the rain is soaking her. She stops in front of me and stares in shock.

Out of the blue, I state, "It was Molly that sent the email."

Stevie stays silent. With all seriousness, I say, "I'll leave if you tell me to."

Instead of answering, she puts her hands behind my neck and crashes her lips to mine. Immediately, I kiss back right as she wraps her legs around my neck. I hold her legs as we continue to just make-out in the rain. Across the street, I hear someone in the convertible honk the horn. Stevie smiles against my lips before she pulls back.

Close to my face so I can feel her breath on me, she whispers, "P.S. My dad accepted a new job."

I laugh at her letter-like statement but furrow my eyebrows at why she's telling me.

Seeing my confused face, she adds, "It's in Brewster."

I smile and press my lip to hers.

"If someone is truly yours, they'll come back."

That's what Stevie told me the night before she moved. Well, it's a lie. People don't just waltz back into your life. If someone is truly yours, you have to fight to get them back. The journey might be hard, but you'll feel ten times better when you reach the destination. Who knows? Before you get there, maybe you could write a few "Dear Zander" letters yourself. Turned out great for me, right?

And so they live happily ever after. The end! No plans on a sequel since I think this story wrapped up nicely. Anyone remember that "they'll come back" line from the first chapter? So, thank you to everyone who read this story! If you followed, favorited, or reviewed, I really appreciate it! I want to list some specific people I'd like to thank, but I'd feel bad about the people I left out. I just want you guys to know that you are so awesome! 265 reviews for only 20 chapters is incredible, but I don't think of it like that. I think of it as 265 thoughts being shared. That is so amazing! Again, thank you so much! Imagine me giving you a virtual high 5 and cyber hug right about...now!

Hope you enjoyed reading Dear Zander as much as I enjoyed writing it!(:
