Thank you Cookie05 for reviewing

Basically this is the last chapter. There will be a sequel but more details at the bottom of the page. Also sorry if Mo seems a bit OOC I just wanted to portray him in a different way.

I took a deep breath and knocked on the door, Mike opened it, "hello Immy, come to collect your stuff?" he asked, I nodded.

"Come in," he said ushering me in and the Police followed me.

"Immy," I heard Verus shout and her and Beta ran at me at one hundred miles an hour. I hugged my sisters,

"so what is going to happen?" Beta asked, "are you coming back?"

I shook my head, "I have to go to a specialist care home, for my... condition," I said. That's when i saw the tears in Beta's eyes.

"I will keep in touch, promise," I told her, she nodded wiping away her tears.

"Immy," I heard a small voice say, I turned round and there stood a boy with his arm in a sling, Mo.

"Hi Mo, I'm sorry that I pushed you," I said, "but thank you for not taking me to court."

"It's ok Immy, you didn't mean to hurt me. You were confused and anyway it didn't hurt that much," Mo said bravely, so I ran over to him and hugged him. The Police were unsure whether to pull us apart or leave us, so they let me hug Mo.

"Immy," I heard a voice say and I looked up and saw Tee, "I'm sorry that I blanked you,"

"no I'm sorry for being such a bitch," I said,

"no you weren't a bitch to me, I can't believe I judged you so quickly. I'm sorry for being a bad friend and not taking your side when you needed it," I walked over to her and hugged her,

"it's fine Tee," I whispered,

"Rick and Elektra told me that you were a clone, I don't mind," she whispered in my ear, I hugged her tighter. I didn't deserve friends as good as her.

"Anyway if it hadn't been for you I wouldn't be with Tyler," Tee said grinning, I smiled back.

I went up to my room, Elektra was lying on her bed.

"Hey," I said,

"hi," she replied, we paused awkwardly for a second. "I'm sorry that I blanked you and was so cruel to you," she said.

"I forgive you, it's fine, anyway it doesn't matter," I told her.

"I packed your stuff for you," she told me,

"you can keep the poster," I said indicating towards the Doctor Who poster,

"really?" she asked,

"of course Mandy Tennant," she chucked a pillow at me,

"don't let Johnny hear you call me that," she said laughing.

"of course, I don't want to make your boyfriend jealous," I replied.

Then there was a knock on the door,

"what do you want," Elektra shouted, Rick opened the door.

"Immy can we talk?" he asked, I nodded and stood up, sensing he wanted it to be in private.

We walked down into the garden and sat on the old seats,

"I am sorry," he said, "for jumping to conclusions, thinking you were cheating on me,"

"I'm sorry for not telling you I was a kissogram, I wanted to stop but I couldn't afford to get out of my contract," I told him.

"I'm sorry for reacting so badly about being a clone," he said,

"don't worry, I've seen people react MUCH worse," I replied.

"So you are going to a new care home?" he asked,

"yeah, a specialist one," I said,

"my friend Kitty, went to a specialist home," he said,

"you miss her?" I asked,

"she was like a sister to me," he replied.

We sat there in silence for a few minutes, they were our last few minutes together, alone.

"Immy, when you get to leave that home, come and find me. I will be waiting because Imitari Odissey I only just realised how much I love you. I want to spend the rest of my life with you, I want us to be together, forever," he said.

I looked in his eyes and knew he was telling the truth.

"I will wait for you, because I know it will be worth it," I replied and Rick looked at me. I knew what was coming next, so I mentally prepared myself. Then it happened. His lips were on mine. We kissed, and I remained focused. I didn't slip into a day mare.

Then we stood up, he took my hand and we walked back to the house.

Half an hour later

The two Police men had gotten bored of talking to me and one was chatting to Mike and the other, the older of the two was talking to Carmen. I walked closer to Carmen to hear their conversation.

"You know Carmen, I think my wife would really like you," he said,

"don't you have any children?" Carmen asked,

"my wife can't have children but she we weren't really interested in a younger child, she was more interested in a teenager," the police man said,

"Mike," he suddenly said, "could I organise a day for me and my wife to take Carmen out?" he asked, and went over to Mike.

"oh my stars," I said to Carmen,

"wow, I never thought any person would be interested in fostering me, but he is lovely," Carmen said grinning,

"well if you haven't got anything on, you could take Carmen out today," Mike said,

"well this is my last thing and I'm only here till Immy's social worker arrives," the police man said,

"so yes, I'll call my wife," he walked away and called his wife, who was free.

"Good luck," I said to Carmen,

"we may have never been good friends Immy, but I will miss you," Carmen told me.

Then there was a knock at the door and Mike answered it, in walked a lady wearing stylish clothes and a lot of pink. She locked eyes straight away with Carmen.

"Are you Carmen?" she asked,

Carmen nodded, "you are so gorgeous," the woman said.

Carmen grinned and I knew straight away that they would get along just fine.

Then there was another knock on the door and my social worker came in, "hello Immy, got your stuff?" I nodded, "ok, right, lets go."

I walked out of the house, to find all the kids had come round the back and were now at the front.

"Jeff is going to miss you," Harry told me, I hugged him and Floss who was standing next to him.

"I'm going to miss you," Jody said, "who is going to buy me my chocolate cookies now?"

I grinned, remembering buying her the cookies as a bribe.

Mo hugged me, "bye Immy," he whispered.

I then hugged Frank, Johnny, Tyler and Carmen, who had managed to leave for a second before going back to the couple.

"bye Tee," I said, hugging the first friend I made in this place.

"See ya Mandy Tennant," I said hugging Elektra, she hugged me back.

"See you Beta," I said hugging my little sister,

"see you Verus," hugging my older sister.

"Bye Rick," I said hugging my boyfriend, then he pulled away and kissed me. As we kissed someone wolf whistled.

Then I got into the front seat of the car, my social worker turned the car on. I rolled the window down, as the car drove away, they ran along side.

"I will write," I shouted at my sisters,

"bye," numerous people shouted.

Once we reached the road they all stopped apart,

as we drove away I swear I heard a shout, "I love you Immy," I smiled. I would see him again. I knew I would.

As we cruised down the motorway, I started thinking. I may have not got a fresh start but I did have the best time possible and I knew I would come back.

The End

So Carmen has found her perfect parents, she deserves them. Anyway there will be a sequel called

The Days Before Tomorrow

I will give you the summary now

Rick makes a choice, a choice that will change all of their lives but what will Immy do when she discovers the truth?
