...

ten years had gone by since high school and Soul couldn't be more happy with her life.

Her and EJ got married two years later on their anniversary and they are as strong as ever.

They even had four precious kids of their own; There is Reign and Rylee who are 5, Arlo is 4, while the baby of the Caswell bunch Nola is 1.

As promised Gina was in fact Soul's maid of honor with Ricky being EJ's best man as the duo grew closer over the years.

Of course, Ricky and Gina also got married a few years down the road after finding time with G's busy movie schedule with Soul and Big Red as the Maid of Honor and Best Man.

To everyone's surprise Big Red announced that he was in a relationship with Andy from North High, they are still going strong to this day. Biggie is now the proud owner of Slices.

Ashlyn followed Maddox to New York where she got the opportunity to work on a major movie set after Quinn's production of Romeo and Juliet, the couple actually adopted 2 siblings together and are getting married real soon.

Even though Gina announced Jet's feeling's to Kourt they decided to stay friends since she was leaving for Georgia... that was until they saw each other again at one of the many group meet ups and have been together for the last 2 years.

Then there was Soul's parent's Carlos and Seb. After their bump during their junior year the couple grew even stronger as a pair. They got married the year after Soul and EJ and still reside in Salt Lake, taking over Seb's family farm.

Nini is still out doing her rockstar things but moved to New York a few years after tour. She was engaged to a singer but recently broke it off so she's out there doing her.

Finally Miss Jenn or should we say Mrs. Mazzara. Yeah, you remember when the happy cople ran off to New Zealand; they eloped. Everyone could see how happy they made each other.

As for Soul's family, not much has changed.

There was still love shared between the 5 Walker family members; it only grew with people.

Stella Walker still lived in the same house from all those years ago. She enjoys the many visits from her children and grandchildren. The kids absolutely love Nana.

Sarah did indeed marry Chase; the pair lives in his hometown with Soul's twin nieces.

Sam did finally settle into a serious relationship with a really nice girl in college by the name of Stevie; yes the same Stevie who was Soul's background dancer on her first tour. The pair grew closer with their time on the road and have been inseparable since.

In college Sully finally came out about his sexuality of being gay and is actually in a relationship with Carter; they just hit their one year, who would have thought.

...

Soul was sitting in her home studio working on a song when she heard pairs of footsteps running her way, causing a smile to form on her lips.

"Mommy!"

"Hello my beautiful babies." Soul grinned, turning to face her kids, noticing EJ standing behind them in the doorway with baby Nola. "I'm almost done."

"No need to rush babe." EJ grinned. "The party's not for another hour."

"I know but I don't want to be the last one to show up like always." Soul explained, smiling slightly before turning her attention to the small versions of them. "And I'm sure you guys are excited to see your cousins!"

"Yeah!" The three oldest exclaimed together, jumping up excitedly, causing their parents to chuckle.

"How about you guys go grab your shoes and me and mommy will meet you by the door." EJ spoke, causing the three children to nod before racing out of the room. "I think they're excited."
"You think." Soul teased, smiling at the man.

"Hi." EJ smiled, placing a kissing on the woman's lips, causing her to smile into the kiss before they pulled away. "How's the song coming?"

"Really, good. I'm almost done." Soul spoke, glancing down at the book before looking back at EJ. "I just need to finish the bridge and the 2nd verse."

"Well, whatever you write, I know it's going to be amazing." EJ spoke, causing the woman to smile. "It's going to be your best song ever."

"You literally have zero proof to back the theory up." Soul chuckled.

"I don't need it when I have knowledge of it." EJ smiled, causing them both to chuckle. "You ready to go?"

"Yeah." Soul nodded, closing her songbook, turning around to face her husband, revealing her pregnant stomach. " Let's do it."

The man smiled as he helped his wife up before the couple walked up stairs hand in hand as they helped their kids with shoes before they were out the door.

...

"Knock, knock." EJ grinned, opening the door, allowing Soul in first as she carried Nola in her arms as the other 3 rushed in behind, racing off to the corner of the room to the other kids.

"Soul! EJ!"

"Hi guys!" Soul grinned, pulling everyone into a hug as tight as she could with a baby in her arm and a pregnant stomach.

As she finished giving everyone hugs, Gina took baby Nola from Soul's arms as she took a seat beside EJ, causing him to wrap an arm around her.

"How are you guys?" Kourtney grinned, causing the couple to share a smile before looking back to the group.

"We're doing great." EJ answered honestly, causing Soul to nod with a smile. "I have a happy wife, I have amazing kids, the baby is healthy, there is nothing else I could ask for."

"Didn't the twins start school this year?" Nini asked, causing the couple to nod. "How are they liking it?"

"They absolutely love Kindergarten." Soul gushed with a smile. "They even made a few friends."

"It's where some of the best friendships start." Ricky spoke, causing Soul, Nini and Big Red to smile.

"You can definitely say that again." Soul smiled before turning her attention to her pregnant best friend beside him. "How's baby Bowen doing?"

"Baby boy is very healthy." Gina grinned, bouncing Nola on her lap. "Only a few more weeks to go."

"Can you guys believe it has been 10 years already?" Ashlyn spoke, causing the group to smile lightly. "I don't know about you guys but it feels like it was only yesterday we were walking into the first day of auditions for High School Musical."

"Man, where has the time gone?" EJ smiled at the group.

"Mommy's here!" Miss Jenn announced, entering the room with Mr. Mazzarra, causing the group to all quickly stand to quickly greet the two adults that they loved so dearly. "Sorry we're late, Benny kept getting lost."

"I'm sorry, I didn't know if we were meeting here or in the actual barn again." Mr. Mazzarra explained, causing the group to chuckle.

"Since we're all here, we have something we want to tell you guys!" Kourtney spoke, sharing a grin with Jet before turning their attention back to their friends. "We're getting married!"

The woman held out her hand, causing everyone to finally notice the ring sitting on her left hand, cauisng the girls to squeal in excitement as the crowded Kourtney to get a glimpse of the ring.

"Oh my god, congrats Kourt!" Gina grinned, holding the girl's hand.

"Yeah, we're so happy for you!" Soul smiled.

"I'm so glad you said that." Kourntney spoke, tossing her hair over her shoulder. "I want you all to be my bridesmaids."

"I'm dying, yes!" Ashlyn exclaimed, causing everyone to nod with smiles.

"Neens." Kourtney grinned, turning to her best friend with a grin.

"I would love to be your maid of honor." Nini nodded, causing Kourtney to squeal, throwing her arms around Nini, pulling her into a tight hug.

After the celebration of the big news died down, everyone took their seats once again around the couches.

Soul sat beside EJ with their daughter laying in her arms as her best friend was sitting on her right.

Soul couldn't help but look around at the group that she called family with a happy face. Her life had turned out pretty good since high school and she wouldn't go back and change anything if she had the chance; she would do it all over again if she could.

the end :)
