Sunsets - Epilogue
A cool breeze blew Rosie's long hair back as she sat, furiously typing away on her laptop.
Classes may have already started here at the University of Maine, but she already had a biology paper to write.
She had graduated high school a year ahead of her class, and she was now a sophomore in college, studying to be a doctor.
A shadow fell across her, and she looked up.
There was someone standing in front of her, but the sun was glaring in their face, Rosie couldn't see who it was.
"Hey there." The person said, leaning forward and out of the sun.
It was a boy.
He had light blue eyes and blonde hair the same color as white sand; he looked familiar, but Rosie couldn't place him.
"Uh.... Hi." Rosie said awkwardly.
"Do you know who I am?" The boy asked.
Rosie smiled faintly, "No, should I?"
He looked down, bit his lip, and then pushed Rosie's legs over so he could sit down on the bench.
They were sitting in the middle of campus, red and orange leaves fell to the ground around them.
Autumn was in the air.
Rosie scratched her head.
"Um, you probably don't remember me, I mean, we uh, met like, five years ago..."
Rosie smiled faintly and tilted her head.
Five years ago?
What is this boy talking about?
"My name is... Anthony. Anthony Robinet. You uh, you liked to call me Tony."
That's when it hit her.
Rosie's jaw dropped, and every memory came rushing back to her.
She jumped up, her heart fluttering like a bird's wings.
"No," she shook her head.
Anthony got up, "I knew this was a bad idea, I'm so sorry-"
"No!" Rosie pulled him into a tight hug, her breath coming in short gasps.
He still smelled the same, like lilacs and the beach.
"What are you doing here?"
Anthony shrugged, a broad smile on his face, "I turned my grades around, did well on all those big tests and got accepted here... It was fate really."
Rosie bit her lip, "That's fantastic! Did you stay friends with Timothy?"
Anthony's smile seemed to falter a bit, but he recovered, "Uhm, no. Why?"
"Oh, it's just... we're dating now and everything. He goes here too, so, yeah," Rosie stuttered, blushing and looking away awkwardly.
"Oh, well," Anthony lightly smacked Rosie's arm, "I'm excited to connect with him again."
Rosie looked up at Anthony, eyes shining.
Then, Timothy ran over.
"Hey! Rose," Timothy frowned, "oh my God, is that Anthony Robinet? Come here man!"
Timothy pulled Anthony into a bro-hug.
"What's up?" Anthony asked.
"Well Rosie and I were just going to the beach to watch the sunset, wanna come?"
Anthony looked from Timothy to Rosie and a small smile spread across his face, "Sure. Why not?"
The three then took the short car ride to the beach, and sat in the sand.
A chilly breeze blew leaves everywhere, and because of the cold they were the only one's out there.
"It's so beautiful," Rosie whispered as she watched the pink and orange sun slide below the dark purple waves.
"Just like you," Timothy whispered back, kissing the top of Rosie's head.
Rosie smiled at him, but she heard Anthony make a noise.
She turned to look at him, but he just looked away.
When the sun was finally gone, Anthony pulled Rosie away from Timothy.
"What is it?" Rosie asked, slightly annoyed.
"Why are you with him? You could do so much better!" Anthony sighed.
"You have no idea how stupid you sound," Rosie hissed, "and I love Timothy."
Anthony tilted his head a bit, "And I love you."
They both paused and looked at each other.
"What I said, in Florida..." Rosie started.
"No," Anthony breathed, "it's okay," his voice was soft, like velvet.
The leaned in, but Rosie put a hand on Anthony's chest, "No, I can't do this. I love Timothy."
Anthony straightened a bit, and looked Rosie straight in the eye, "I love you Rosie, and I guess that means I'll just have to fight for you."
THE END.
THE END!!! Oh my gosh!!! D: I REALLY hope you guys liked it... It took me FOREVER to write because I was busy watching Missy Franklin win gold and beat the WORLD RECORD! Team USA :D Anyways, This is for you Casey. And I hope you're all happy. -.- I wanted Rosie to end up with Anthony but NO, everyone wants Timothy... So I just gave it an open ending, and that way I can leave it or go and do a sequel. :P Keep checking my profile for another story...
