Four years later....

(Kieran and Pony are both twenty years old now)

"HEY, KIERAN, WHEN are you ever going to stop writing in that notebook?" Pony asked, washing his hands off with a washcloth while glancing at me from the doorway.

I shot him a smile. "Trust me, you're going to like when I'm done with it. I'll let you read the whole thing."

He chuckled and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I stood up from my desk. "Well, I have to go out to the grocery store. We're about out of milk and that's what I need for one of the ingredients tonight." I started walking out the door but stopped and turned around.

"The gang is coming over tonight, right?"

He nodded his head. "Soda called and said they would be."

I went out the door and hopped in the car. I sprinted over to the section where the milk was located and grabbed a gallon. As soon as I turned around, I bumped into somebody, making all of their things drop on the floor.

"I'm so sorry!" I apoligized and started helping the person pick their things up.

"Kieran?"

I shot my head up and my eyes went wide. "Mr. Stilinski!"

I handed him back his stuff and he smiled at me. "I told you that you'd end up with Pony in the long run. Remember?"

"Yeah, yeah, you were the one in the triangle and you got the girl." I finished his sentence, making the both of us laugh.

"Well, it's nice meeting you again, Kieran. I hope to see you soon at your wedding." Mr. Stilinski teased, making me giggle.

"If we ever get married, I promise you'll be the first person I call to invite." I announced.

He clapped his hands together. "Can't wait."

I paid for my milk and got back in my car. I was walking up to the house when I saw a note on the door. I furrowed my eyebrows and grabbed the note off of the door, reading it.

Someone else is after you now.
- MM

"BOO!" Someone shouted from behind me, making me scream so loud.

Pony swung open the door and shot a glare from behind me. "Two-Bit, lay off!"

He ruffled my hair and snatched the note from me. "Sorry, I just had to do that. MM stands for Mickey Mouse."

I shook my head and chuckled. "I'm surprised you spelled everything correctly."

"Nah, I had Darry tell me how to spell everything." He replied, shrugging his shoulders.

Pony and I started laughing and we walked inside the house with the rest of the gang. After I finished fixing supper, along with Darry, we sat out everything for everyone. Ten minutes into dinner, and all of the food was gone.

Which wasn't surprising considering all of us had a love for food.

Pony stood up and had a huge grin plastered on his face. "I have an announcement to make."

We all turned our attention towards him and he grabbed my notebook. "I've spent months watching Kieran write in this. She wrote her and I's whole journey, and I'm going to fill up the last page of the book with what I'm about to do now."

We all knitted our eyebrows in confusion as Pony went to go grab something. He came out and ran his hands through his hair. "I lost it! Kip, can you come here real quick and help me?"

I nodded my head and stood up where he was. "I think I left it on the back porch when I was outside last night, so you check there while I'll go check in the bedroom."

I ran outside to the back porch and looked everywhere. I have no idea what he's even looking for. I shook my head and walked back inside. "Pony, I can't fin-"

There was this huge picture frame laying on the floor. It was a picture of Pony and me looking at the sunset when we were sixteen. I walked over to it, smiling. "Pony, is this what you lost?"

"No." A voice came from behind me.

I turned around and Pony was standing there, an amused look on his face. "This is what I lost." He exclaimed, holding up a box.

I gasped as he got down on one knee, the whole gang literally jumping out of their seats. "Kieran, will you-"

"Yes!" I shouted, tears falling down my face. I threw myself into him, making both of us fall to the floor.

We all started laughing and Soda started hopping around the living room like a little kid. "I told you that you were going to be my sister-in-law sooner or later!

"KIERAN, DO YOU take Pony to be your-"

"I DO!" I cut him off, making everyone laugh.

Pony said I do, and then the magical part happened. "You may kiss the bride!"

Pony put his hand on the small of my back and let me down slightly, kissing me.

what it looked like

The whole gang started cheering and clapping, making us laugh even more. Our wedding cake was just Darry's chocolate cake because, why not?

And that's the end of my book. I hope you re-lived all the experiences Pony and I had to go through, because in the end, it was all worth it.

-Yours Truly,

Kieran Smith. (and Pony since I wrote the last page haha)

the enddddd! I hope you all enjoyed this book because I loved writing it!

THIS IS WHAT WAS SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN, BUT DIDN'T.

- Dally was going to get stabbed
- Sodapop was going to get shot
- Kieran's parents were supposed to come back
- Bob was supposed to go missing
-Cherry was supposed to die
- And Johnny was going to tell them that he wishes he never got involved with the whole thing.

SO, let's just be glad that didn't happen.

peace out and stay gold :)

the next chapter and very last one will be the main song for this whole story.
