A/N: Hi, guys! Here it is now: the epilogue. Please read this note, first! It’s very important!
First things first, I want to thank everyone who read, commented, liked/left kudos, and followed this story from beginning to end.
Second, a couple of things have occurred since the last chapter was posted and I’d like to address them here, now.
So, I know most of you were unhappy with how I chose to end that chapter but you already knew what you were getting into when you clicked on this story. So, to that one person who was very rude in their comment (you know who you are, if you are still even subscribed to this since I politely asked you to unsubscribe and I’m still kindly asking you not to bother with reading this Epilogue because it’s not for you), this is what I have to say. A writer can choose how to end their story in the way they want, it’s their work and it’s their vision. They worked hard to produce a story and, for an emotional story like “Lost Boy” that’s filled with angst and tragedy, it can take a toll on their own mental and emotional health. I have no problem with constructive criticism, but your comment was not constructive, at all. You have no idea how many times I’ve re-worked this story since last year, the effort and every bit of my own emotions I put on it. So, the fact that you said the things you did makes me believe that you don’t realize all the work it took to create this story you supposedly enjoyed but proceed to insult when it didn’t end the way you wanted. It’s MY story.
And, following up on that, if you’re unhappy with how I wrote my stories and you want to write your own version, please, please, please, PLEASE ask me for permission. My story ideas are precious and important to me, as any author will tell you. This is the second time it’s happened and both times, both stories were written without my permission. Even if you credit me in your author notes, which I appreciate, I still want to be asked if I’m okay with it because when it’s sprung up on me, I’m caught off-guard and it upsets me. I want to be able to make that choice to have something I come up with re-written and I won’t pretend I’m okay with it. So, again, please, please, please, PLEASE ask me for permission, it’s only common courtesy.
And, third, I’ll be taking a short break after this but I will start accepting prompt requests again, soon.
With that said, enjoy this Epilogue!

The streets and houses looked the same as he remembered…yet also not the same.
Mrs. Singh’s shrubs are still shaped like birds. The Caranos’ front porch had been re-painted from white to a bright sunny yellow. Mr. Lee’s picket fence was finally fixed. And the Smith’s gnomes still stare stonily right into his soul.
A breeze swept by him and he shuddered, zipping his jacket further up before stuffing his hands into the pockets. He continued down the path to his destination, his gaze swiveling around and taking in his surroundings.
Everything was familiar…yet also not familiar.
After some time, he finally made it to the gray-painted house with the navy-blue roof and white windows. The picket fence surrounding it was still intact and still white.
He couldn’t help the smile that graced his lips as he walked up the path to the front door. His stomach was filled with butterflies and nerves. He kind of felt guilty for being here and almost turned tail and ran. But, no, he was going to do this. He swore to himself that he would.
Raising a hand, he pressed his finger to the doorbell and waited.

I’m extremely sensitive right now after watching the finale, but so so happy and grateful for this show and for what we got. Bittersweet. It be like that sometimes, ig?.
I need a hug :( sending virtual bear hugs to everyone out there who needs them too
- Why does he need me? - He needs you to lift him up, to tell his Ranger Rick stories to, and make him feel like a hero. You like his stories and he likes yours.
GHC! ... I’m not crying, you are...
Boss: TJ, you are a great employee and I really don’t want to let you go, but I’m gonna need a very good explanation from you for that not to happen...
TJ: Remember how you say everyday that the customer is always right??
Boss: Seriously Kippen?...
TJ: ...And that “if it’s in our hands, we should go above and beyond to make sure they leave happy and satisfied ”??... Your words, not mine!
Boss, to himself: Oh God, I think I know where this is going...
TJ: ... the customer seemed upset and this specific request was literally in my hands! Technically I was just following your instructions!
Boss, trying to keep his composure: Bringing the customer to your side of the counter and hugging him from behind, your chin on his shoulder, while still taking orders at the register doesn’t meet that criteria!!
TJ, looking down at Cyrus, still wrapped in his arms: But that’s what the customer asked for! right muffin??
Cyrus: Yes sir, I specifically said “ I want a long and tight hug from my boyfriend, for here please”
Boss, conflicted: You could have waited until lunch break!
Cyrus, with guilty puppy eyes: I might have added the word “Now” at the end of the order... please don’t fire him, it’s all my fault...
TJ: Sir, how can one say No to those eyes?!!
Boss, defeated and sighing: Fine! I’ll let you go with a warning this time, but don’t let it happen again... and honestly, I don’t think I can fire you, your mom would never forgive me if I did
Cyrus, relieved: Thank you Mr. Kippen! Won’t happen again, we promise!
TJ, whispering while dragging Cyrus out the door with him: Talk for yourself...
Mr. Kippen: I heard that Thelonious!!.. Don’t be late for dinner!!
Cyrus’ voice from the distance: See you tonight sir!! I’ll bring dessert !!
Mr. Kippen, soft smile and rubbing his temple while making a phone call: You won’t believe what our silly son did today, that kid is so in love...
