Thank you to you all! Since my birthday is tomorrow, I wanted to give you guys a present by putting up the final chapter. Please enjoy!

Adalind and Nick had a nice night of peace after leaving Catherine's house. Opting to call off any plans for the rest of the day, the two lounged around Nick's house, going over all the crazy things that had happened with their family members. The fact that they're mothers hated each other did nothing to deter them from continuing their relationship. At this point, there was nothing their family and friends could do to ruin what they had.

They knew they couldn't avoid their family and friends forever and that's how they ended up at their favorite diner with Kelly, Marie, Catherine, Monroe, and Rosalee. Due to the fact that breakfast never worked out well for them, they opted to treat them to dinner instead in hopes that the crowded area would prevent any bloodshed.

So far, it had only created awkward tension and death glares thrown across the table.

"You know, Rosalee and I hate to intrude, we'll gladly leave." Monroe said as he and Rosalee suddenly stood to leave.

Nick sent them a look that was matched by Aunt Marie and Monroe practically pushed Rosalee back into her seat. Monroe was very aware of the anger Aunt Marie held for him after telling Nick about the plan to befriend Adalind. Kelly seemed to be more cordial as her hatred was focused on the Hexenbiest seated across from her. With each bite of her pork chops, Kelly looked directly into Catherine's eyes.

"We're all here because we need to connect. You all don't have to like each other, but you are going to need to tolerate each other as long as Nick and I are dating." Adalind commented, popping a couple of fries into her mouth.

Rosalee smiled at her and decided to make herself comfortable. If this dinner went well, she and Monroe wouldn't have to avoid Aunt Marie and Kelly for the rest of their lives.

The silence devoured the table once again as Nick snuck a few peaks at the people occupying their table. His eyes rested on Adalind's and when her eyes met his, he felt a lot more comfortable with the situation. Reaching out to touch her hand, Nick felt at ease.

It wasn't until he looked away for her moment that he realized his aunt was watching them. Her usual judgmental glare was still judgmental, but was slightly less menacing than usual. Her eyes rested on their hands holding each other.

She finally sighed before digging into her pasta dish. She did manage to sneak a few looks at Monroe and Rosalee who were avoiding her gaze at all costs.

"So, you're going to stay with the Grimm?" Catherine asked haughtily.

Adalind rolled her eyes at her mother but opted to answer.

"We've only been dating for a month. Moving in with him is way too soon."

Aunt Marie snorted, "Be careful dear, your mother doesn't know such words."

Kelly joined in on the laughter while Catherine didn't even flinch. She merely took a sip of her water and continues eating.

"Oh Nick, I must apologize." Catherine suddenly said.

Utensils hit plates dramatically as all eyes snapped to Catherine. Nick, himself, was in awe but answered her back.

"Well that's nice of you, but what are you apologizing for?"

And with Nick's question, a sick smirk etched itself on Catherine's face.

"I'm sorry that you had to be raised by such terrible bitches."

Nick's shoulders sagged as Monroe and Rosalee inched themselves closer together. Aunt Marie and Kelly merely shook their heads in distaste. Kelly set down her fork and rested her elbows on the table while perching her head on her hands.

"Oh darling, you really do need help. I'll give you some points for the whole shock factor you supplied, but the turnaround was nothing. Like shit, have some creativity." Kelly suggested.

Aunt Marie was still chewing but added on to the advice, "No for real. That was weak. Give me something with substance, with depth. Pierce my soul, bitch. You're a Hexenbiest for fuck's sake."

Catherine sat silently as Adalind tried to hold in her giggles. Of all things to get them talking, it would be bad comebacks.

"My comeback was fine, thank you." Catherine argued.

Aunt Marie shook her head in disagreement before leaning hack in her seat. She stared at Catherine for a moment before sighing.

"Look, if this whole being cordial and shit is gonna work you're going to have to learn how to hand out backhand comments. Gimme a reason to want to kill you without me actually going through with the act." Marie explained.

"What's wrong with my comments?" Catherine questioned.

"They're weak. Where's the entertainment? Where's the fight? Like come on now. Gimme something good."

As the three women argued back and forth, Nick and Adalind whispered to themselves as they realized what this meant. Any conversation, even one about insults and backhand comments was accepted and was considered significant progress. Monroe and Rosalee noticed too, as they both visibly relaxed and enjoyed the meal they ordered.

"How long do you think this is gonna last?" Nick said motioning to his mom, aunt, and Adalind's mother.

Adalind smiled, "Long enough." And with that gave Nick a peck on the lips.

The past few months were the best ones. They weren't perfect but the fact that she was waking up in Nick's arms in her comfy bed with the Nanny on as background noise. No matter how much Fran Drescher's voice annoyed Nick, he would never try to protest against watching an episode of the Nanny with her. It was like their bonding time, plus it was hilarious as hell.

She was just waking up and the early morning light could be seen peeping through the blinds. She turned away from Nick's sleeping form and looked at her phone. She had a few notifications but nothing pressing. Just as she was about to go for a few more minutes of sleep, something caught her eyes.

She quickly sat up in bed, woging at the intruder in her room. To her dismay, it was three instead of one. Nick hadn't even flinched as she moved around the bed, looking for a pillow to throw back at the three women smirking at her.

"How did you even get into my house?" Adalind hissed.

Her mother smirked, but held a skeleton key in her thin fingers.

"Get out, you freaks!" Adalind yelled, ripping the pillow right from under Nick's head and chucking at Kelly.

Nick was startled and quickly shot up. Taking in the scene before him, he shook his head opting to go back to sleep. Adalind had other plans however, as she shook him mercilessly awake. He sighed but knowing better than to make Adalind angry he sat up against the headboard.

The past six months had been a great experience for not just Nick and Adalind but for Kelly, Marie and Catherine as well. The three women weren't best friends or friends at all but they were acquaintances in their own right. Between going out to dinner just to make fun of one another or merely calling each other for insults, the women had several lines of communication between them.

"Mom? What are you all doing here?" Nick asked sleepily.

"We're here to take you to breakfast. We went by your house but you weren't there, so we came over here. You two really ought to just move in with each other. It would save us time and gas trying to hunt you both down." Kelly offered.

Aunt Marie walked over and made herself comfortable on the bed as she finally noticed the source of the background noise. Mesmerized by the nasally tone of Fran Drescher, Aunt Marie let out a hearty laugh over a funny line in the show. Adalind smiled as she found something to possibly bond over with Aunt Marie. That small fact didn't deter her anger either.

"We'll meet you guys downstairs." Adalind replied pointedly.

Getting up reluctantly, Aunt Marie led the other two women out of the room. As soon as the door clicked shut, Nick rubbed his eyes and let out a laugh. Adalind moved to settle next to Nick as they both let out a few laughs over the craziness of their family members.

"Well, I think we can finally call it for what it is. They're definitely friends. I think they work well together." Nick said looking down at Adalind.

She nodded and reached up to give a kiss.

"It's definitely a match."

Again, thank you for the reviews, follows, and favorites. You are all too kind and welcomed me into this fandom wholeheartedly. Hopefully this isn't my first and last fic with this pairing but I do plan to dabble into Chicago fire next, so I won't write any Nick and Adalind too soon. Thank you all.
