Isabella sat in front of the mirror with Hailee right beside her, the singer/actress looking at the person she has feelings for with a small smile on her face. "You look beautiful."

Their eyes met through the mirror, making Isabella send her a smile. "Thank you."

Not needing words to tell each other how they feel, Hailee stood up and started zipping the beautiful wedding dress up, gently putting her hair to the side so it won't be caught between the teeth of the zippers.

Isabella had a soft smile on her face when she saw the look Hailee had, her mind going over what was about to happen.

"Are you ready for this?"

"Nervous for the vows, but I'll be fine."

//

"Right now, we are about to film the first single off my new album, this has been in the works behind the scenes for a while now and I'm just excited to finally bring my vision to life and finally put something out to the world. And to introduce my album with this song? Yes."

"What's the title of the song?"

"Paubaya."

"What does that mean?"

"There really is no specific translation of the word to English, but it means to entrust, let go and move on."

//

There was a knock on the trailer door, making the both of them pull away from each other even though nothing was really happening. Michelle's head popped in, the look on her face softening when she saw her eldest daughter in the beautiful white flowing wedding dress.

"You look beautiful, Mija." Michelle walked in, stood in front of her daughter, and smiled. Isabella saw Michelle put her phone out to take a picture of her, but she noticed the smile faltering on her face a bit.

She knew her Mom was thinking about Lola, since she was one of the people she would send updates to, and she used to always gush about how excited she was to attend her great granddaughter's wedding. But she was gone. 

Giving her Mom a sad smile, she held both of her hands and took a deep breath. "I know, I miss her too."

Not wanting to bring the room down, Michelle took a deep breath and nodded her head, bringing her phone up so that she could take a picture and send a picture to her wife and the text chain she has with Isabella's godmothers before putting her phone away.

"We have to go now, Paige is ready."

With one last nod, Hailee and Isabella gave each other a smile before following Michelle out of the trailer.

Isabella Press - Paubaya | Official Music Video |

Isabella and Paige stood in front of the altar, it was only the two of them with an actor who was acting as a priest.

"Paige, do you take Isabella, to be your lawful wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worst, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?"

Paige took a deep breath, made eye contact with Isabella (who avoided eye contact with the tall blonde), and smiled. "I do."

Season 2:
T

he Last Chapter


Isabella and Paige were both walking hand-in-hand, down the empty street, giggling like lovestruck teenagers.

.

Then a clip of them rising a scooter, Isabella resting her chin on Paige's shoulder as they laughed and cruised around.

.

Isabella had her head on Paige's lap, both of them laying on the field with a bunch of food around them, signifying that they were both on a picnic date. 

Piage pulled her upper body up so she would be in a sitting position. She looked down at Isabella with loving eyes as she grabbed a cupcake, used her pointer finger to scoop some icing up, and put the icing on Isabella's nose.

Isabella ley out a gasp before standing up and watching Paige scurry away and start running from the fast soccer player.

.

Saan nagsimulang magbago ang lahat/ When did it all start to change
Kailan nung ako'y 'di na naging sapat/ When was I not enough anymore

.

Isabella and Paige stood by the scooter, Izzy holding 2 helmets. "Paige, get the helmet."

"No," Paige replied with a cocky grin.

The younger girl shook her head at her ex-girlfriend. "I swear to god, Paige."

Letting out an exaggerated sigh and a breathy "fine," she grabbed the other helmet from Isabella and put it on her head. "Happy?"

"Very."

"You're fucking unbelievable."

"I know, this is why you dated me."

"I didn't mean it as a compliment."

.

Ba't di mo sinabi nung una pa lang/ Why didn't you tell me from the start
Ako ang kailangan, pero 'di ang mahal/ I'm the one you need, but not the one you love

.

They both started walking around the property, and it was starting to get chilly but Isabella didn't have a jacket on, so Paige took her leather jacket off and put it over Isabella's shoulder.

Isabella looked at her and smiled. "Thanks."

"No problem."

They both started walking again, both of their hands grazing each other. Paige tried to stop the smile on her face while Isabella already had a huge grin.

Their fingers touched.

Then they connected.

Like how they would have naturally been 4 months ago.

.

Saan nag kulang ang aking pagmamahal/ Where did my love lack
Lahat ay binigay nang mapangiti ka lang/ I gave everything just to make you smile

.

They both walked into the chapel, hand-in-hand, swaying as they both caught up with each other.

It was inaudible, the conversation the two of them were having, but judging by the huge smile Paige had on her face and Isabella's head leaning back, it was something funny.

Isabella pulled the now blonde-haired woman along the aisle with her, pointing at the windows, until they stopped at one of the church's pews and they both sat down.

Content smiles on their faces.

Just like before.

.

Ba't 'di ko nakita na ayaw mo na/ Why didn't I see you don't want us anymore
Ako ang kasama, pero hanap mo siya/ I'm the one you are with, but you're looking for them

.

It was Paige's turn to pull Isabella up. She pulled her towards the aisle, Isabella looking at her confused.

Until Paige kneeled down.

Reaching her back pocket, Paige grabbed the black Tiffany box from her back pocket and grinned up at Isabella.

"Isabella Blaire Press, will you marry me?"

Isabella looked around reluctantly, thinking if this was a good idea, until she took a deep breath, kneeled in front of Paige, grabbed both of her cheeks, and smiled, nodding her head.

Paige grinned and slipped the ring on her finger before they both stood up and hugged each other. She buried her head in Isabella's nape, smiling contently.

Meanwhile, Isabella spaced out, her smile faltering a bit.

Her mouth said yes... but her mind said no.

.

At kung masaya ka sa piling niya/ And if you are happy with their company
Hindi ko na pipilit pa/ I'm not going to insist no more

.

Paige stood there at the end of the aisle, watching Isabella with teary eyes as she walked down the aisle holding flowers they got from the garden outside the church. 

They wanted to practice what it was going to be like at their wedding, and why not take advantage of the empty chapel.

Isabella tilted her head, not breaking eye contact with Paige. She had a smile on her face, but you could see her mind going a million miles per hour.

.

Ang tanging hiling ko lang sakanya/ All I wish from them is to
'Wag kang paluhain/ Never make you cry
At alagaan ka niya/ And to take care of you

.

Once Isabella reached the end of the aisle, Paige put her hand out, which Isabella willingly took. 

They both danced around, laughing at every twirl, smiling at every turn. grinning at every whisk.

Isabella looked back, her hazel eyes meeting green ones before their foreheads connected. They just stared at each other with huge smiles on their faces.

Reminding them of what was.

.

Saan natigil ang pagiging totoo/ When did the faithfulness stop
Sa tuwing mababanggit na mahal mo ako/ every time you tell me you love me

.

Isabella was in the backroom, getting ready. She put her makeup on, her hair up while she prepared herself, a beautiful white wedding gown behind her.

While Paige was in the other room, also preparing herself for the wedding, her suit hung behind her.

.

Ba't 'di mo inamin na merong iba/ Why didn't you admit there was somebody else
Ako ang kayakap, pero isip mo siya/ I'm the one you are hugging, but you're thinking of them

.

The door of the chapel opened. Isabella had a conflicted look on her face as she started walking down the aisle, holding the bouquet of flowers. She unconsciously put her head to the side so that the veil would fall off her shoulder.

Meanwhile, Paige's breath was taken away, with it being the first time she saw Isabella in her wedding dress. She felt her smile widen, and her eyes start to tear up.

She looked beautiful, she always does.

.

At kung masaya ka sa piling niya/ And if you are happy with thier company
Hindi ko na pipilit pa/ I won't insist no more

.

Flashing back to when they were doing the rehearsal wedding. Piage had her arms wrapped around Isabella's waist while Isabella had her arms wrapped around Paige's neck, both of them swaying to nothing.

Paige leaned forward and kissed Isabella's forehead, making Isabella close her eyes and take a deep breath, trying to stop herself from crying.

Back to the wedding, the priest put the mic up to Isabella's lips, waiting for her to say 'I do,' but she just looked at Paige, her eyes tearing up, before shaking her head.

"I'm sorry"

.

Ang tanging hiling ko lang sakanya/ All I wish is for them to

.

Flashback to the rehearsal dinner.

Isabella held the flowers close to her, laughing and dancing around, throwing petals on the floor before she stopped and looked at Paige who was just smiling at her.

She started walking up to the taller girl, going on her tiptoe, and giving a kiss on Paige's cheek, making the both of them smile.

.

'Wag kang paluhain, at alagaan ka niya/ never make you cry, and to take care of you

.

Back to the wedding

Where Isabella is running towards the door of the chapel.

Where she left Paige standing there by herself.

Confused

Hurt

Paige sat on the church's pews, looking at the window Isabella pointed at, a tear threatening to drop down her face.

Letting out a deep sigh, Paige stood up and walked towards the aisle, her hand going to her face as she leaned on the chair.

.

Flashback:

November 20, 2026 -Mitch's birthday

Isabella sat in front of the camera, holding silver streamers in her hand.

"We are celebrating with Mom and Mama's friends today for Mom's birthday and on Thanksgiving, we are going to Grandpa Cody's house and Palos Verde where most family is going to be so that we would be able to celebrate with both."

Paige walked in the room, not knowing that Isabella was filming the interview part, but stopped when she noticed the camera. She gave Harold and the crew a shy smile before facing Isabella.

"Chris asked me to go and get something, so I'll see you in a bit?"

Isabella's smile widened and she nodded her head, watching Paige go over and kissed her on the cheek before giving the camera another smile and making her way out. Izzy turned back to the camera, meeting Harold's smirk.

It's been months since he saw the both of them since they both had been in Stanford and whenever they have parts in the show, it's usually Paige who was holding the camera for her girlfriend.

"Well isn't that sweet?"

"Shut up Harold."

.

June 3, 2026 - GTA

"Oh shit. The cops."

She pulled up to the side and waited for the cop.

Cop Claire: Vehicle off, windows down ma'am

Isabella looked at the chat when she heard the raspy voice, as she tried not to smile

"Oh my god, her voice."

She watched this attractive cop walk out of the car with tattoos and shit making her eyebrows pop up.

"Oh damn. Okay. Fitting for a voice like that, to be honest, sheesh."

Cop Claire: Good afternoon Ma'am. I'd Deputy Everly with the Blaine County sheriff's office, badge number 380 for reference. Can I have your license and registration before we proceed further?

"Oh my god. Is it weird that I am so attracted to her voice? Dayum."

Bella: Uh sure, can I have your number in return though?

She handed her the license and registration but the cop was just silent.

Cop Claire: Are you aware that you were going 48 on a 40?

Bella: I'm so sorry officer, I just really in the rush because I needed to use the restroom ya know. But I promise to stop if you go on a date with me...

Isabella facepalmed because of how hard she was simping right now, and the fact that over a million people are watching her do it too.

Cop Claire: Uhhh yeah sure, as long as you're paying.

Isabella looked at the screen wide-eyed.

"What the fuck?"

Cop Claire: I'm still gonna give you a ticket for speeding though. $2,000 is that okay?

Bella: Uhhh yeah. Here.

Isabella quickly paid and got her id back.

Cop Claire: Okay thank you. You may go after you see the red and blue flashes of light turn off. Be safe okay? I appreciate you.

Isabella watched the white-haired cop walk back to her car.

Cop Claire: Oh and I have a long day off on Saturday, think you could go and do the date by then?

Bella: Uh yeah sure, want me to pick you up at Mission Row or something?

Cop Claire: That would be perfect, thank you. I will just ping you.

Bella: But you don't have my number.

Cop Claire:

Isabella watched the cop drive away, while she immediately dialed Ray Mond.

Ray: Hey.

Bella: I just got pulled over by a cop for speeding.

Ray: Oh my gosh, are you okay?

Bella: Yeah I'm fine, I'm perfectly fine. I ended up paying 2,000 dollars and now half my money is gone but it was worth it because guess who has a date on Thursday.

Rae's laugh could be heard on the other side of the line making isabella giggle.

Rae: Oh my god, no way.

Bella: I mean, I asked her if she wanted to go on a date and in return, I won't speed anymore and she said yes.

Ray: You lucky bastard.

Bella: Hell yeah I am, I fucking scored.

.

June 15, 2026 - Pride concert

Isabella bent down, face-to-face with the girl with the purple hair, noticing that Kris and Thomas (Sykkuno) were standing beside her. She gave the both of them a poke on the nose and threw a suggestive look at the mystery girl before standing up and staying beside her band.

Isabella made her way to the side of the venue, where Rae, Thomas, Leslie, Kris, and the rest of OTV and friends were waiting for her. She quickly hugged them before Thomas and Kris dragged her to a more secluded place.

"Okay slow down fellas, first of all, I am gay. I don't see any of you like that. And I don't think threesomes are my think. Mom on the other hand-"

They quickly shushed her and stopped in front of the person she doesn't know but has caught her attention the whole day.

She took this time to really study her. She was tall, maybe 6'1 or 6'2 at most, she has beautiful purple hair, beautiful green eyes, and don't even get her started on the lips.

"Finally got to meet you without you offering hostage's shoes at me to throw at you."

She was taken aback by the familiar deep and raspy voice. Her eyes widened as she looked at the woman in front of her.

"Cop Claire?"

"Bella?"

Isabella grinned and pulled her in a hug, having to tiptoe so she could wrap her arms around her neck.

"Oh my god, I never thought I would get to see you in real life. Your voice definitely matches your face."

"Uh... thanks? My name is Paige by the way."

"Isabella."

They both looked around and saw that the 2 boys left them alone, making the both of them roll their eyes.

"So, you ready for Claire and Bella's date tomorrow?"

"I mean I guess, but I would rather us date."

Isabella's eyebrows shot up in amusement and shock.

"Excuse you? Is this your way of asking me out on a date?"

"I mean, I'm just saying. Why not right? You don't have to though. Oh god, are you dating someone already? I should have asked you first I knew this was a bad idea. I just thought-"

Isabella cut her off by grabbing her hand and giving it a soft squeeze.

"I would love to go on a date with you. Pick me up tomorrow, I'll send you the address."

.

Ba't 'di ko naisip na merong hanggan/ Why didn't I think that there was an end

.

The music stopped, it was eerily silent as Paige stared ahead.

There was a creaking heard as the door opened, Isabella, who was still in her wedding dress, peeked her head in. The sound of clicking heels could be heard as she started slowly walking to the "person she left at the alter."

She stopped in front of Paige, taking a deep breath.

This is the part where she wasn't staged. 

This is where she's going to have to "Paubaya"

Let go.

Isabella tiled her head and started fixing Paige's coat, while Paige looked at her, both of them silent because they didn't know how to start this.

"You look good," Isabella broke the silence "This is what you would have worn to our wedding?"

Paige chuckled and nodded her head. "Yup, and that what you would have worn, I see. You look beautiful."

"You too." Isabella grabbed her tie and untied it, before starting to tie it herself. "But you still have no idea how to tie your tie."

"I don't have you tying it for me anymore."

Paige gave Isabella a sad smile, feeling Isabella's movements falter a bit, before continuing like she didn't hear anything and fixed it. Once she was done, she immediately took a step back to put space between them, going back into silence.

But the silence only seemed to make them both feel heavy, really feeling the unfinished business they both had.

"I'm sorry, Paige." Isabella started, making Paige look up at her again. "I'm sorry because I felt like it was my fault. I got tired, I got confused, I don't know."

Paige shook her head, watching Isabella cry is breaking her heart. "It's not your fault, Iz. Why are you saying sorry? Nothing is your fault."

"I just... I just feel like I could have done more, I should have fought harder, I should have..." Isabella took a shaky breath and wiped the tears that were running down her cheeks. "I should have done more. I'm sorry. I got scared, scared because these feelings changed, frustrated because nothing was wrong but... you were so good to me P. So fucking good. And it's so frustrating that this ended this way."

"I gave you my everything, but despite that, it still didn't work out. It's frustrating that my everything was not enough. I just got too tired."

Isabella took a deep breath, looked up, and shook her head. "And I hate this too because I don't hate you, and moving on would have been easier if I hated you. Do something to make me fucking hate you."

Paige stood there, just staring at the crying woman in front of her, feeling herself cry too. Now it was her turn. "I'm sorry. You're blaming yourself for not putting in effort when it was all you Iz, I was the one not putting in the effort. I took you for granted because I just expected you to be there, all the time, but then you were gone. You were gone and I got scared and.. and then you were gone forever."

"I wanted to be there for you, I watched you hurting from afar but I just watched you crumble. It hurt the strongest person I know crumble like that. Then I got scared, I pulled back, and I'm sorry I watched you suffer more. I had the power to make it all better, but I didn't."

Isabella took a deep breath and looked at Paige, both of them silently staring at each other. Both of their minds flashed back to their relationship.

They barely saw each other because of their busy schedules, they had different friends, they both loved in different worlds, and they knew it wouldn't have worked out.

Not if they were not on each other's priorities. And they knew their priorities won't be changing soon.

Paige smiled and gave Isabella a small smile. "But I just want to thank you, for the memories, for your care, for your concern, for all the laughs, and the tears, and most especially for the love. You made me feel loved every single second, and I thank every millisecond that I got to spend calling you mind, for showing me the side of you that only I got to see, for loving me."

Isabella couldn't help it anymore, she lunged at Paige, pulling her in for a hug while Paige wrapped her arms around Isabella, giving her hairline a kiss before resting her chin on Isabella's head as she comforted the crying girl. 

"I missed you so much," Isabella sniffed.

Paige closed her eyes and pulled Isabella closer. "I missed you to Iz, but I just want you to be happy, even if it's without me."

Isabella pulled away slightly, her eyes swollen from crying while she gave Paige a look. Paige chuckled and pinched Isabella's cheek. "She's good for you."

The soccer player shook her head and just rested her head on Paige's neck. "She's good for you too. I like her."

The taller girl laughed softly and rested her head on top of Isabella's. "Really?" She felt Isabella nod, making her smile. "Good, cause I want you to like her."

Paige pulled away and rested both her hands on Isabella's cheek, wiping her tears using the pads of her thumbs. "I have to go."

Isabella felt herself start crying more, more tears rolling down her eyes and her grip around Paige's waist tightened. She shook her head and Paige saw Isabella's lips start to quiver. 

"No, please don't"

"I need to."

Knowing Paige really had to go, Isabella put her hands on Paige's hand (which were still on her cheeks) and closed her eyes when Paige kissed her forehead one last time. 

.

Ako yung nauna, pero siya ang wakas/ I was the first, but they are the last

.

Paige started walking away, both of their hands still connected, while Isabella just held onto Paige's hand for as long as she could before releasing her grip in defeat.

They let go.

.

At kita naman sa 'yong mga mata/ And it could be seen in your eyes

.

Flashback:

June 22, 2026 - Hospital looking after Rae

After what felt like forever, the doctor finally came and she took that as a cue to leave. Isabella walked out into the lobby, to see Paige sitting there holding 3 cups of Starbucks.

"Uh, I got this for you and Rae."

She grinned and walked over to her, sitting on the chair beside her and gratefully accepting the cup of coffee.

"Thank you so much."

"It's no problem."

They sat there silently for a few seconds before Isabella turned to her.

"Thank you."

"You already said that."

"No, not for the coffee. For driving to Rae and me here. You didn't have to really."

"I was honestly so worried, I wanted to make sure you were safe... oh and yeah, of course, also Rae."

Isabella chuckled and gave the purple-haired woman a soft smile. Her mind drifted off to Dinah. She would never do this for sure. Let alone call at 5 in the freaking morning to ask if she was okay because she was still online in discord.

And looking at the girl beside her now, she couldn't help but feel all fuzzy inside. When she looks at her, she sees her future. It's nothing like how she felt with Dinah or Billie. Looking at her now she was sure. As much as she wants to stray away from the lesbian stereotypes of moving things so fast, she couldn't help it.

In those 3 dates, she was able to find out so much about the girl. Childhood stories, their exes, and she was already easily picking up on her ticks. Her competitiveness was also endearing and her sense of humor was just perfect. She is literally Isabella's ideal partner but she doesn't want to risk rushing everything, just for it to burn out faster.

... Except she knows that wasn't the case.

Fuck it. I don't care if people would tease me because of this.

"Paige will yo-"

"Do you wanna be my girlfriend?"

Isabella looked at the girl beside her in disbelief, before pinching her sides.

"Fuck youuuu, I wanted to ask you fiiirsssst."

"Ha! I win!"

Isabella watched with a huge smile on her face as she started flexing, and she's not gonna lie, she's enjoying the view.

"This is not a competition Paige."

"Well I made it into one."

The younger girl stayed sitting with a pout on her face. Paige pushed her face closer to hers and wiggled her eyebrows.

"So... is that a yes?"

Sighing in defeat, Isabella grinned and nodded her head.

"Of course."

The smile on Paige's face was enough for Isabella to know that she made the right decision. The taller woman kissed the cheek before pulling her in for a hug.

"I hope you don't mind me not kissing you, I just want to make our first kiss more special and not in a very busy hospital."

The grin on Isabella's face never left as she reached over and her girlfriend's hands.

"Of course, I don't."

They gazed into each other's eyes dreamily, not wanting to break eye contact but Isabella started giggling.

"This is not how I imagined this to go."

Paige shook her head, pulling the girl closer. Not believing that the beautiful woman in front of her is officially hers.

"Me too, but I'm glad it played out like this."

.

Kung bakit pinili mo siya/ Why they are the one you chose

.

Isabella stayed at the end of the alter, watching Paige walk away. Paige lifted her hand up to her face to wipe the tears running down her face, resisting the urge to turn back around and go back to Isabella.

.

Mahirap labanan ang tinadhana/ it's hard to fight fate

Flashback:

July 6, 2026 - Meeting the parents

They all hung out in the living room until midnight, where they all just sat down, watched a movie (which was ignored since they were busy telling stories), and showed Paige Isabella's baby pictures.

Isabella is now outside with Paige, bringing her to her car and saying goodbye.

Paige gave Isabella a huge smile, pulling her closer to her by the waist and Isabella's arms wrapped around her neck.

"Did you like my family?"

"I love them."

Isabella bit her lip as her eye laid on Paige's plump lips. She was so tempted to lean in and just kiss her.

"Do it."

Her hazel eyes met with Paige's emerald eyes, their eyes hooded with love and admiration as they stayed in this position.

"I thought we were waiting Ms. Paige."

"Well, your Moms love me, Aquila and Diana invited me over to play with them again, and you are my beautiful beautiful girlfriend, so I think I deserve a kiss don't you think?"

Isabella hummed, the smile on her face widening as she kept eye contact with her girlfriend.

"I don't know, do you?"

Panic consumed Paige because she felt like she was pressuring Isabella.

"I-I mean, if you're not ready, I could wait. I do-don't want to pressure you."

Isabella just chuckled, going on her tiptoe and pulling her girlfriend by her neck, connecting their lips together.

It was everything the both of them imagined. It was magical. Addicting.

They pulled away when they needed air, their bodies still close together as they kept their foreheads touching, the huge smiles on their faces never leaving.

"That was my first kiss."

Paige tightened her grip a little and grinned.

"Really."

"Do you... was it okay?"

"It was perfect."

Pinapatawad / I'm Forgiving you

.

Isabella and Paige laughed sa they both raced towards the scooter, which was a few feet away from them. Paige noticed that Isabella was starting to pick up speed so she leaned over and grabbed her before she could reach the scooter.

Isabella let out a loud squeal in surprise before laughing as Paige twirled the both of them around.

.

Pinapalaya / I'm Letting you go

.

Paige laughed when she saw Isabella accidentally trip on her wedding dress, making Isabella glare and pout at her. Not wanting the younger girl to ignore her, Paige walked towards her and kiss her nose, making Isabella smile.

Pinapaubaya ko na sakanya/ I'm just entrusting everything to him

.

Isabella leaned on the church pews, still in her wedding dress, watching the door close.

Officially signaling the end of their chapter.
