EPILOGUE

It had been about five months since Shade had been born and Ven and Vanitas couldn't have been happier. Despite the earlier events, they could now forget about what happened the past and look to the future. After Vanitas could take Ven and Shade home, Ven was immediately put on bed rest until his stitches healed which was about one month later. Vanitas and Ven had set a date for their wedding which was four months later which is now! XD!

Ven was in his room getting ready when Xion came in carrying Shade in her arms. Shade was wearing a cute outfit complete with a pair of overalls, a shirt and a pair of black shoes while Xion was wearing a simple pink dress. At the sound of the door opening, Ven turned and saw his son with his sister.

"Aww, there's my handsome little boy. C'mere!" Ven said taking Shade in his arms who was having a giggling fit.

"Do you need any help Ven?" The blond shook his head smiling. Xion then left leaving her brother to finish getting ready. The blond set his son on the bed where he could see him in the mirror and fixed the tie on his tux more. Once he was finished with his tux, he scooped Shade in his arms again as Roxas walked into the room. The other blond was wearing a black tux with a checker board tie. The twins looked at each other, then Roxas took Shade into his own arms.

"I swear every time I see my little Shade, he gets a little bigger!" Roxas said giving Shade little Eskimo kiss.

"Are they ready yet Roxas?" Ven asked. Roxas instantly remembered why he was there.

"They'll be ready in a few minutes, but there's something I need to tell you." Ven nodded as he sat down on the bed. What could have possibly happened to his brother? Was it good? Was it bad?

"What happened?" Roxas smiled then put a hand on his stomach. It took a second for Ven to realize that his brother was pregnant.

"Roxas! I'm so happy for you! How far long are you?"

"I'm about three months along and I'm starting to show it." Roxas smiled as he rubbed his stomach. Shade looked confused and it was adorable.

"Does Axel know?" Roxas shook his head.

"I haven't told him yet. I just found out last week. I'm planning to tell him tonight." Ven hugged Roxas again as Shade tugged on his mother's tuxedo sleeve. Blue eyes looked into one crystal blue eye and one golden eye. Over the five months, Shade had been starting to look like a mix of both his parents. He started growing blond hair with some traces of his father's hair in it. Shade had also inherited somethings from his relatives like his Uncle Sora's cute button like nose.

It was time for the wedding and Vanitas was standing at the altar with his best man, Sora by his side. Along with his groomsmen Axel, his cousin Zack and Riku. Riku had gotten out of prison a month after Shade was born. Since the silverette had been a good friend to Vanitas while he was in prison, the raven felt it was right to make him a groomsman.

Soon, everyone's attention turned to the doors as Ven came walking down the aisle carrying Shade in his arms. It was a very cute sight. Ven was wearing a white tuxedo. He could've worn a dress, but he absolutely refused to wear a dress. As he was walking down, he continued to look at Vanitas. After all this time, he didn't know he'd see himself in the place he's in now. As he got up to the altar, Vanitas kissed his cheek then the priest started to talk.

"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to witness the union between Vanitas Nightshadow and Ventus Strife. If anyone objects to this union, please speak now or forever hold your peace." All was silent for about two minutes then the priest continued.

"Since there are no objections, the couple have written their own vows which they will now exchange." Vanitas was first.

"We were just a pair of sixteen year olds when we met. I had moved here from another town because my father had gotten a good job offer and I couldn't just have a place of my own to stay while the rest of my family were up here. On my first day of school, we met in chemistry class and I almost set the school on fire. After some time I realized that I loved you, but you liked someone else. The night we first kissed is something I still remember, you were really depressed and found comfort from me and then, we just kissed. When I got arrested the first time, you stayed with me even though everyone told you to leave me then when I got arrested the second time, you still stayed by my side. I promise for as long as I live I will be a great husband and father. I love you and our son more than anything and nothing will change that." Now it was Ven's turn to say his vows.

"Vanitas, when I met you I just thought that we'd just be friends, but we ended up being more. We ended up being friends, then we dated for about seven years then we became engaged, to being parents and now we're right here getting married. I never thought I'd be right here with you but here I am. I love you a lot and I never want to lose you. Sure there were many ups and downs in our relationship but we're human and we can get past what happened and look forward to our future. When you went to prison, I thought that I would have to leave you, but I couldn't... even if I tried to. Plus I had a reason for staying." Ven looked at Shade with a smile. "I loved you ever since our first kiss and I'll love you forever. I look forward to our future together." Once Ven was finished, everyone just said 'Awww...' because of how that sounded. The priest cried a little then picked himself up as he continued.

"Who has the rings?"

"I do!" said Yazoo, who just happened to be stuck as the ring bearer. Then he walked up with the rings which were sitting on a pillow.

"Vanitas, repeat after me: With this ring I do thee wed,"

"With this ring I do thee wed,"

"My dear husband who I will love in sickness and health, for richer or poorer, for better or worse until death do us part."

"My dear husband who I will love in sickness and health, for richer or poorer, for better or worse until death do us part." Vanitas repeated as he slipped the ring on Ven's ring finger. The blond lifted the other ring and awaited his instructions.

"Ventus, repeat after me: With this ring I do thee wed,"

"With this ring I do thee wed,"

"My dear husband who I will love in sickness and health, for richer or poorer, for better or worse until death do us part."

"My dear husband who I will love in sickness and health, for richer or poorer, for better or worse until death do us part." Ven said slipping the ring on Vanitas' finger. They both faced the priest.

"Vanitas, do you take Ventus to be your lawfully wedded husband?" Vanitas looked to Ven and smiled.

"I do." Ven felt himself start to cry happy tears. The priest then turned to Ven.

"Ventus, do you Vanitas to be your lawfully wedded husband?" Ven nodded as he cried.

"I do. I absolutely do." Ven and Vanitas then turned around to face the audience.

"With the power invested in me, I now announce Mr. and Mr. Nightshadow. Now you may kiss the groom." Vanitas then kissed Ven as everyone cheered and clapped.

Later at the reception, everyone was having a great time and there was laughter and dancing. Ven and Vanitas walked in and cut the cake, but then it turned into an all out cake fight. As the couple had their first dance, they whispered sweet things to each other. The night began to come to a close as people started to go home.

Vanitas and Ven went home last because they were so lost in everything, they forgot the time. Well... that and Shade was getting sleepy. When they walked in, Shade was half asleep and was looking up at the ceiling with lazy eyes.

"Let's get you in your sleepy time clothes and off to bed." Ven cooed as he went into Shade's room Vanitas had gone to their room and slipped on his night-clothes and was waiting for Ven in their bed. When the blond arrived, he had their son in his arms who was sleeping soundly. Vanitas smiled. Though Shade sleeping in the bed did cut into his alone time with Ven, it meant that the three of them could grow closer as a family. Vanitas was holding Shade as Ven was changing into his sleep wear.

Ven crawled into the bed and scooped Shade out of his husband's arms. Vanitas couldn't get any happier, he had a future with his family to look forward to. Ven caught the smile and left a chaste kiss on Vanitas' lips.

"You know, Sora and Kairi are gonna steal this one for a whole week starting tomorrow, so we have a week to be together to you know~" Vanitas caught on to what Ven was implying. Soon Ven positioned himself so he could both hold Shade and sleep comfortably as his raven haired lover pulled the covers up on all three of them and they soon fell asleep.

Meanwhile, Roxas and Axel were cuddling on their bed. Roxas was thinking of a good way to tell Axel while the redhead himself didn't know what was going on. For three months now, Roxas was throwing up, getting worked up when Axel accidentally made a comment about weight or said something about his eating habits and getting heavier. What was going on with him? Roxas finally came to his senses.

"Axel, I have something to tell you." Axel looked at Roxas puzzled.

"What is it?" Roxas then took Axel's hand and gently placed it on his stomach. It took about ten minutes before the redhead realized what his lover was trying to say. Roxy's pregnant! Axel thought as he kissed Roxas.

"How long?"

"Three months, but I found out last week! Aren't you happy?" Roxas asked as Axel nodded.

"Yeas. Yes I am!" How didn't I notice? Axel thought. Roxas then buried his face in Axel's chest with a frown. He had remembered how high the death risk was and whatever happened, Axel had to be there for their baby.

"Roxy, it's going to be okay. No matter what happens, I'll still be there for our little boy and/or girl. It'll be okay." The taller man said rubbing his lover's back. Roxas looked at Axel and kissed him. He really is changing... Roxas thought as he started to fall asleep.

"Axel... I needed to hear that. I love you..." With that, Roxas was asleep.

"I love you too Roxas." Axel said kissing Roxas' forehead. He was happy, even thought he screwed up in the past, this must've been what a life of wrongs was leading up to. Soon Axel fell asleep with one last thought, This must've been what my life was leading up to...

Me: Okay! We are officially done with Change For Me! This was the last chapter, I kind of left it on a cliffhanger which, if I can think of it, I think I might make a little sequel to it focusing on Axel and Roxas. Sorry if you felt this was a bit rushed and if you did, I apologize, I might reword and add some stuff to it later, but I just wanted to get this story done so I could work on this Final Fantasy VII story I'm writing. Actually, I'm writing three. First there's my drabble and one shot series, Life, which takes place in the universes of the stories that inspired me to make it: How To Say 'I Love You' and Kids Are Alright, then there's this Cloud/Angeal story I'm working on called Bonding Over A Loss, then there's this ASGZC story I'm working on that still doesn't have a name yet, but when the time comes I'll name it. Plus I'm also working on What's It Like To Be A Nobody?, which I am working on Xigbar's chapter so if you read the stories I mentioned and liked the pairings I also mentioned then stay tuned! Anyways, I had a TON of fun writing this. Thanks to all of you amazing viewers, you helped me make Change For Me one of my stories with the most words, most chapters most views, most reviews, most favorites and most follows! Thank you!
