《Heart Strings | ✓》EPILOGUE

"No, this is how you do it." Jack moved my fingers across the piano as he tried to teach me.
I knew how to play the piano before but it has been a while. I sold my old keyboard to make extra money for mom's medication.
I've gotten the hang of it mostly. I sometimes make a mistake by accidentally playing the wrong chord. I did have a teeny-tiny problem with having to understand the music sheets. But I'm making good progress.
Jack was playing wonderfully and I can't help but look at him with adoration.
I was too busy admiring him to realize he was playing Lover by Taylor Swift then he began singing.
We can leave the Christmas lights up 'til January
This our place, we make the rules
And there's a dazzling haze, a mysterious way about you dear
Have I known you 20 seconds or 20 years?
We have known each other longer than that.
Can I go where you go?
Can we always be this close forever and ever?
And ah, take me out, and take me home
You're my, my, my, my
Lover
We could let our friends crash in the living room
This our place, we make the call
And I'm highly suspicious that everyone who sees you wants you
I've loved you three summers now, honey, but I want 'em all
Our gazes match and we found ourselves smiling stupidly at each other instead. I scooted closer over to Jack and rested my head on his shoulder. We sat in comfortable silence.
She's right. Loving someone for a long time now, you can't help but want to spend the rest of your lives together.
Jack asked me to move in with a year ago. I said yes to him. Although it was hard moving saying goodbye to Stacy and the others and to my job, I was sure with my decision. I found a new job in a nearby preschool from our home.

Our home.
Those words bring warmth to my heart.
Mr. Louie is alive and kicking. And I mean literally kicking specifically anything that belongs to Jack. I really need to tame this cat whenever he's around my boyfriend. I don't understand how he's such a sweetheart when it comes to me.
The world knows about his relationship with him. I agreed to let him announce that we're together but that's it. Our relationship is still out of the public eye, only a few pictures of us here and there on social media.
That's most of what happened the past three years.
"I-I remember that I have to do something real quick." Jack said, moving from our seat. "I'll be back, Angel." He placed a kiss on top of my head before going.
I hummed in reply.
While he was gone, I continued pressing random chords on the piano trying to create a melody. I put my focus on that as I waited for Jack to come back.
I wonder what he was doing?
I glide my hands on the keys mindlessly. What am I even doing? I laughed at myself.
"Callie," I can hear Jack from behind.
I quickly turned around. "Hey, what-" My jaw dropped at the sight in front of me.
Jackson was bent one knee, an opened red velvet box with a beautiful ruby red ring.
"Jack..." I put a hand over my mouth in shock.
"W-Will you, Callissa Beatrice Garwood, marry me?" He asked, shaking.
I nodded my head continuously, tears falling down from my eyes. "Yes! Yes, of course!" I exclaimed, running to him and knelt down to hug him.
He pulled away from the hug and slipped on the ring.
"Can't wait to change your last name and make me your husband." Jack said before crashing his lips on mine.
=====
A/N: No, because this book is finally done! I really had fun writing this story and will for sure miss Callie and Jack after this. I hope you loved reading the book as much as I did writing. Now that that's done, I have a lot of editing to do.

Love Of Baybur [Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
The Sultanate won a huge battle against their enemies of different religion, and now left them with only a piece of land surrounded by Sultanate's forces. Baybur, a yerliyya from a backwater place, is hailed as a hero after the war for his past contributions in a strange manner and is, thus, invited to a banquet prepared by the Sultan and attended by many Great Nobles. To Baybur, who had dreams of stepping on a higher stage in Sultanate's politics, and in his Orta's ranks, this is a chance for him to shine and rise. Yet he, and many in the banquet, knows that victory is far from over. And this presents a chance, with greater risk than before, to impress the Sultan and the Pashas of the Sultanate. Sanjak-beys and Aghas of the Janissary Corps all seek to devour their enemies, both in and out of the Sultanate. And Baybur, in the midst of this brewing storm, is no different from a fish dreaming to be a dragon. But a woman he meets at the banquet changes everything; his goals, his dreams, and his fate. After all, love, without expression, is a deadly curse. As a note, Cover is not mine obviosuly, and I write this both for NaNoWriMo and Writathon. To some history lovers and nerds who specialize in it, I know you might be angered quite a deal with some things I've written.(I get the feeling when someone talks wrong foolish things in a study I know, no hate) But this is a historical fiction written by a seventeen-year-old, don't expect much from me to know every single detail. Much of my research is surface level and some things are, well, to fit plot, are changed. So bear that in mind. For schedule/chapter thingt, there will be at most five chapters until I pass the 55.555 words mark. Each chapter will be around or above 10k+ words. It is also not edited, and probably won't be unless I find a great deal of time in my hands after November to see what I lack in where. That's all. Now go read, or leap to another fiction. Enjoy!
