*time skip 5 years*
you all bought a house in Tennessee and have been living there for the last 4 years. you are all in your 20s. nick still thinks about his parents every now and then. you have phones but stay off social media because it's too risky. you text riley all the time. riley checks up on nick's parents every few months. you made some new friends in Tennessee such as a kid named Ryland he is good friends with nick. payton is dating a girl named Avani she live 45 minutes away but she's over every weekend. Chase is engaged to a girl named charli. they are getting married in the spring. you dated a guy named Kio for 2 years then your broke up when he moved to LA to work with a modeling agency. you still talk all the time you just thought it was best if you weren't together. you are best friends with dixie (charli's older sister) and another girl named addison. you've stayed really close with nick. all your bonds have never faded no matter what.
sorry for such a long time skip i just felt that the story would be drug out if i did a play by play. i hope you're enjoying this story!
