-Tracy's POV-

Alright so I think this will be last one… Thank you for the reviews, follows, & favorites!

I love the feedback and hope you like this ending better!


We continued to converse more as we walked towards my apartment. We talked about the Renaissance, which lead to calligraphy, and then to coin collecting! And then we were all the way to my apartment door.

"I still can't believe you have 16 1969-S Lincoln Cent With a Doubled Die Obverse pennies!" Ted said in awe.

"I can't believe you know 1969-S Lincoln Cent With a Doubled Die Obverse is!" I reply, "Well this is my apartment." I point, still looking at Ted and him at me.

I can't believe we've talked all the way to my apartment, and we have so much in common, we could be soul-mates. (Quick little author's note: I wanted Tracy to fall for Ted as quickly as he did for Robin as a, 'Yeah it can happened that quick even for you Ted!' type thing…)

"Did you just say 'we could be soul-mates?'" Ted asked with a surprised smile.

"Did I say soul-mates?!" Out loud! I repeated.

"I meant to say…" I paused and thought, "Soul food."

His smile got brighter, and I just closed my eyes, closed my mouth into a line, and turned my head away.

"We could be soul food together… as in popular Southern comfort food?" Ted jested.

"You know in my head, because believe it or not I actually put some thought into that statement…" I recessed.

"I recall you taking a pause, yes go on." He remarked.

"Right. So in my brain the first more realistic words that came besides 'soul food' was 'roommate.' And I thought: Yeah cause that's sooo much better. No we're not soul-mates but I think we should move in together." I said staring off in the distance, and then back at him.

"So now that I've said all that out loud… I'd just like to thank you for your time. You were great by the way and if you'd like to leave any comments on anything you liked or would maybe change? You know except for the whole soul-mate/soul food thing…" I continued.

"I liked everything, including the soul-mate part, and especially the soul food thing." Ted joked, and I laughed.

"Well spoiler alert 'we could be soul food' one of my better lines." I joke.

"It's a good one I think you should get that put on a t-shirt or like embroider it on a pillow." He continued.

"Yeah and above it will say top 10 weirdest & inappropriate things I've said to a guy I've just met." I add.

"Here why don't I balance it out by saying something just as inappropriate too soon… Like: think how great of a story this will be to tell our kids someday! I'll get to say 'and kids when she said soul food in that moment I knew she was the one!'" Ted said animated.

"And when he went along with it, in that moment I knew… he was as big of a dork as me!" I said with a laugh.

"And that kids is how I met your mother." Ted finished.


Cue 'Heaven' by The Walkmen and Jason Segal as Marshall credits and cue the tears… Seriously the finale aside I still can't believe it's over!
