《Nothing Lasts Forever》Epilogue
Advertisement
Gigi makes her way onto the large oak wood stage in front of the even larger theater screen.
The crowd cheers for her, Hunter and I joining in as well.
"My name is Gigi,"
"As some of you may know, a few months ago I directed this little movie about the forbidden love between a princess and a knight starring a few people that you may know," she teases
The crowd cheers once again.
"I enjoyed working with these actors because not only are they extremely talented but they truly challenged me as well," Gigi continues
Gigi glances in Hunter and I's direction.
"I'm not sure if you're aware, but the two leads that I chose for this movie have actually had a not so happy run in with each other in the past,"
"Although they seemed to hate each other more than anything I was able to recognize some sort of underlying tension between the two of them," Gigi admits
I feel my cheeks begin to tingle with embarrassment.
"Unfortunately since they were so adamant on hating each other I did have to pull them to the side and have a talk with them,"
"Nonetheless, together they were able to create such a beautiful connection that extended beyond the screen,"
A smile makes its way onto my face.
"Without further ado, here are the talented women I had the chance of working with!"
Gigi uses one of her hands to motion over towards Hunter and I.
"McKenna King!" Gigi calls out first
Hunter places a gentle kiss on the back of my hand before releasing said grip on the body part and rising from her theater chair.
I just stare at the actress as she turns to face the screaming crowd, respectfully waving at them.

"And Delaney Carson!" Gigi calls my name
I notice Hunter remove one of her hands from her pocket and hold it out towards me.
I grab ahold of said hand as I stand up from my theater seat, turning around to face the crowd as well.
I wave at the large crowd of people who are cheering for the two of us.
"Will the two of you girls like to come up here and say a few words?" Gigi asks
Hmm...why not?!
Hunter and I make our way towards the staircase that is connected to the stage.
Once Hunter and I reach the staircase she holds one of her hands out for me once again.
I grab ahold of said hand, using my free hand to grab ahold of my dress so that I do not accidentally trip on it.
The two of us make our way up the stairs.
In no time we are standing next to Gigi.
Gigi holds the microphone in her hand out for Hunter to grab ahold of.
Hunter accepts said microphone from Gigi's outstretched hand.
"Hi guys, how are you tonight?" Hunter asks as Gigi makes her way back towards her seat
There is chatter among the large group of people that ultimately bubbles up to everyone having a good time.
"Great!" She smiles
I feel someone tap my shoulder, persuading me to turn around.
"I have to be honest, this is by far one of the hardest movies I have ever filmed," Hunter admits
I see a person in a tuxedo handing me a microphone.
I smile and thank them as I accept said microphone.
"I mean Delaney and I completely hated each other which not only took a toll on the people around us, but the work environment as well" Hunter says

"By the way we are so sorry about that, Gigi" I apologize to the woman in the front row
Hunter agrees with me.
"While we are sorry, we also want to thank you" Hunter adds as she turns to face me for confirmation
I nod my head.
"Yeah, without you and this movie we would probably still be pettily feuding over something which inevitably ended up being a huge misunderstanding!" I say
The two of us go on to give Gigi our gratitude before I glance over towards Hunter only to notice her fiddling with something.
What is she fiddling with?
She has been fiddling with something in her pocket for a few minutes now.
"What are you doing?" I chuckle as I glance down at her hand that seems like it is holding something in her pocket
"What are you planning?" I ask when she does not immediately answer back
"My hand is stuck- Oops"
She tries to tug her hand out her her suit pants which confuses me.
She was able to get it out easily a few minutes ago.
I go to help her only to stop when she finally gets said hand out but accidentally drops what looks to be a piece of paper.
The raven haired girl kneels down onto one of her knees in order to retrieve said piece of paper only to end up pulling a small velvet box out of nowhere.
What the- how did she do that?!
The box reads 'Kay jewelers'.
I feel all of the wind get knocked out of me as she opens said box, a shiny diamond ring greeting my eyes.
My eyes glance up to meet Hunter's.
I do not miss the cocky yet amused look on her face.
"Do you love me?" She continues to smirk
It takes me a moment but I realize that she is quoting a scene that she did in the movie.
Ugh! This lovable bastard!
"Of course I do" I quote back
I hear the chatter of the crowd begin to become louder.
"Marry me then" she says with a daring tone
"You make it sound like a dare"
"Okay, I dare you to marry me"
I chuckle at the us, understanding that no one will get our reference for another hour and twenty minutes at least.
"Okay, I'll marry you" I agree
Hunter's smile gets even bigger at my answer.
I help the actress up.
Once she is completely up she grabs ahold on my left hand and slips the ring onto said finger.
Oh wow! This ring is heavier than it looks.
"It was the last one they had in the store, we can go up another day and pick out a more simpler one since I know that's more your style" she whispers
I smile thankfully at her.
I remain silent as I pull her into a lingering kiss, solidifying our promising deal.
The crowd of viewers cheer at this, some even going as far as to whistle.
Oh my god!
I forgot that they were there!
I pull away from Hunter, unable to stop smiling.
"Enjoy the movie!" I say into my microphone
I grab ahold of Hunter's hand and lead us off of the stage.
The two of us hand out microphones to the person who handed me mine earlier before sitting down in our theater seats once again.
"Congratulations!" Gigi whispers to us as the lights dim and the movie begins
I smile at the mother figure.
"Thank you so much"
...for everything.
