This is the last chapter. I’ve been writing since 6am yesterday morning so I’m going to bed in a minute. xD I’ve also been writing this whole fic for around six months now, urgh, it’s taken so long, sorry.

Thank you thank you thank you to the people who read this <3 I know it’s not brilliant or whatever but I hope you’ve enjoyed reading it.
