i vaguely remember coming back to the hotel last night. i mean, it's not like josh and i were flat out wasted, but still. all i do remember was that the both of us were too tired to do anything but rinse off in the shower and fall asleep straight away.

but for now, i was laying on my back, testing the waters by opening my eyes ever so slightly every minute. once the ache in my head had dulled down a bit i groaned and sat up, "mmmmmmm joshua," i said as i reached out to my left, accidentally smacking the yellow haired man next to me in his bare chest. i heard the thud and quickly pulled my hand away from him, "ow," he said and reached out and pushed me over. "sorry," i muttered as i rolled over so i was straddling him, my hangover only slight.

"g'morning," i smiled and looked down at the still tired josh beneath me. i leaned down and pressed a chaste kiss to his jaw and i felt arms snake around my tummy. he pulled me down on top of him and hugged me close, "good morning Cub," josh sad and nestled his nose in my hair, placing a kiss to the top of my head.

"so, whats on the agenda for today?" i asked, breaking the comfortable silence. josh sat up, bringing me with him, and pulled me into his lap, cradling me. he glanced at the clock above the tv in front of us, "it's about noon now," joshua said with a smile, looking back down at me.

i felt safe, in his arms, so relaxed, his coffee brown eyes scanning over my body, and i melted into his arms, making myself feel small and bubbly.

josh chucked and i felt his chest vibrate against me, "we're supposed to go out to this strip mall called Tin City with Ty and Jenna later to look around and get some things if you want," he said, trailing off a bit as he stared at me.

"what?" i asked and got no answer, "josh what," i said and wriggled my arm out from between us and waved a hand in front of his face. "joshua!" i sad and booped his nose.

"sorry," he said and shook his head, "josh..."

"i cant help it, im trying to figure out what i deserved to have this."

i blushed and struggled to sit up a bit in his arms, reaching my head up to his and attaching our lips. it was gentle, the kind that every craves every so often, safe.

when he pulled away, he looked away sheepishly, i nearly cooed at the freckled man and how adorable he was. "i always think the same thing about you," i said and his eyes flicked back to mine.

"y/n, can i tell you something? i-it's... important," josh said, his cheeks turning a pretty shade of pink as he pulled me up to straddle him again. i had my hands behind his neck, his hands were resting comfortably on my waist, i felt his fingers tense up a bit and grab me a bit harder than normal. "yes josh, anything."

he took a deep breath and blinked slowly, "this has been on my mind a lot recently," he paused, "josh, just say it," my heart was beating fast, should i be scared for what he has to say?

no. i shouldnt. not at all.

"y/n" he closed his eyes for a moment, "i'm in love with you."

"josh, im so much more than in love you you," i said and leaned for ward, kissing him happily.

Josh and y/n went back home after saying goodbye to tyler and jenna, abandoning the rest of their florida vacation. they successfully moved all of josh's belongings into her house, Jinx and Spooky got well acquainted with one another. after many more months of dating, josh finally proposed to y/n, he took her to the park where they met, just like the day he asked her out. that's where they had the wedding too, it was set up just the same as before. it was their special spot. they ended up getting a dog, three more cats, and had 5 children, and they lived happily ever after.

the end.

im just kidding everyone. im sorry please dont hate me, when i was brainstorming one of the things that came up would lead to an ending and i actually cried, i never want this to end, but eventually it will.

im sorry this chapter is so short, i had a lot more planned out but i really dont feel well anymore, and i promised to give you SOMETHING. if i feel better tomorrow then i'll update all three books with the stuff i planned, (i only skimmed the surface with this chapter, i had a lot more planned but i get really depressed when i start my period and very uncreative so theres that, have a TMI) i'm done promising stuff to you guys because i feel back not keeping them. im so sorry about that, but i didnt expect this to happen. no more promises alright?

thank you guys, stay safe, eat breakfast/lunch/dinner/or a snack, drink plenty of water (something i dont do), and take your meds if you take them. also, if it's like 1 in the morning or something where you are when you're reading this, try to get some sleep. i know it's hard sometimes (the other night i woke up every hour, and yesterday i only slept like three hours), but just try. and if you ever want to talk, im here, please dont hesitate to reach out.

i love you all
