A/N – I'm so sorry for a month's wait. I was really busy, but here it is. The end. Please leave me a review on what you think. Thank you so much for all the reviews I have received. Thank you to each of you. I am thinking about possibly writing another story for HOA, but I want to know from you guys if you think I should. I posted a possible story idea on my profile along with a poll, so please go vote. Thank you, once again.

There's a moment in our lives, where we feel as if the world has suddenly stood still. It's as if nothing else in the world matters. It feels as if you are all alone, and that one thing is a dim light.

I always used to think a thousand years was a long time. But now, as I tried to move my feet across the pavement, suddenly a thousand years didn't seem long enough. My feet felt like cement. Even though I'm running, everything around me feels like slow motion.

My mind was running a thousand miles a minute, yet my feet were only moving one inch for a thousand years.

One promise. A thousand year and more, kept ringing through my head.

I've broken promises in the past. Everyone has at least once in their life time. But, a promise for a thousand years wasn't one I planned on breaking.

I've lived a thousand lives. A student, the American, the ex, a writer, and the list goes on. But, I don't want to live a thousand and one.

My breath came in short breaths, screaming for air as I keep running. My lungs weren't getting the proper air needed, but I didn't give up. My legs, felt like Jell-O. My legs were wobbly and ready to collapse at any moment. I didn't stop though. I run, as the world around me stood still.

The sweet sounds of church bells ringing in the distance didn't sound so sweet anymore.

Up ahead, thousands of reporters surrounded the church. But, I don't slow down. Everything around me changes. No longer is it in slow motion, but fast forward. I was running out of time.

I push and shove my way through the crowd. I didn't listen as they yelled. I just ran. I jumped over the rope and ran straight to the door. Security guards are all around me, but they can't stop me.

Fabian and Joy stand up at the altar.

"Does anyone object?" The priest asked.

Before anyone could speak, I walked out of the shadows. "I object!" I shouted.

Around the church I saw my former housemates. Besides Amber, many looked surprised to see the girl who disappeared.

"You stupid American!" Joy shouted. "Your too late."

"Fabian, I lied the other night." I said, ignoring Joy. "I do love you.

I can't win, I can't reign
I will never win this game without you, without you
I am lost, I am vain,
I will never be the same without you, without you
I Won't run, I won't Fly,
I will never make it by without you, without you
I can't rest, I can't fight
All I need is you and I, without you

Without,.

You! You! You! You!
You! You! You! You!

Can't erase, so I'll take blame
But I can't accept that we were estranged without you, without you
I can't quit now, this can't be right
I can't take one more sleepless night without you, without you
I won't soar, I won't climb
If you're not here I'm paralyzed, without you, without you
I can't look, I'm so blind
I Lost my heart, I lost my mind without you,

Without,.

You! You! You! You!
You! You! You! You!

I am lost, I am vain
I will never be the same, without you, without you

Without you

My voice rang through the church. For the first time in my life, I sang in front of people. Tears stained my cheeks.

"I'm sorry for everything Fabian. But I want you to know I lost my heart and mind without you."


7 years later

I ran into my house with a large smile on my face.

"Fabian!" I shouted.

He walked into your kitchen with our five year old daughter trailing behind him.

"I did it." I said, holding up a book. A Thousand Years, by Nina Rutter.

He lifted my feet off the ground and spun me around.

"I knew you could do it." He said, kissing me.

"A thousand years." I whispered breaking the kiss.

"A thousand years." He smiled.
