+This Is Where I Belong+

Jack stood waiting on the porch where there were thousands of people trying to get to him or talk to him. It had even gotten so bad that the police had to come by and tape the place off to keep the fans back. However, the media was allowed in though, which was really bad on his part, because he had to keep his body guard near him at all times.

Jack looked at his watch and sighed. It was 20 minutes until she was supposed to be here, and there was no sign of her. What had he been thinking? He shouldn't have done it on T.V. He should have done it in person. Matter of fact he should have given her time to think about it.

"Don't worry man, she'll be here. She ain't that stupid to turn away a good man," Tyler smiled reassuringly towards Jack as he patted his shoulder.

Dianna's P.O.V

The Night Before.

Dianna looked around her room with glistening eyes. What really was keeping her from Jack? What was making her not want to go to him? The only thing she could really come up with was fear of commitment. Fear of being strapped down. Fear of getting hurt again. That's the only reason she could come up with. Every time she tried to find a reason it would always do a U-turn right back to that answer.

"Damn it," Dianna growled angrily as she stood, and kicked a nearby basketball into the wall.

"Don't kill the ball," came a snicker from her doorway. Turning she found Kurt smiling at her with courage. He knew everything and yet he still dared to enter the monster's cave unlike her family. Dianna might not have mutant abilities anymore, but she still knew how to throw a punch thanks to her dear old daddy.

"The ball made me mad. It deserved it," Dianna chuckled trying to lighten the mood.

"I'm sure it did. You ready to go. I can only transport you to the mansion. We'll have to take the Blackbird from there," Kurt told her in his thick German accent.

"Yeah, I'm ready," Dianna mumbled as she grabbed her bag off her bed.

"Are you sure," Kurt said narrowing his eyes and crossing his arms across his chest. Looking up at the blue-faced, fanged man, Dianna shook her head, "I'm not sure what I'm going to say to him. I'm not even sure if I can tell him what he wants to hear. Right now I'm confused as it is about this." Dianna placed her hand over her belly as she frowned. In just a few months she'll lose the figure she had prided herself in for so long. How the hell was she going to be able to handle all of this at once, when she could barely handle the small things?

"You'll be fine," Kurt told her as he placed his hand under her chin to bring her to look at him. Dianna smiled at him as she leaned forward and placed a kiss on his cheek. "Thanks, it means a lot to hear it from a friend," Dianna said as he grinned. "Well, come on. Let's not keep the future groom waiting shall we," Kurt laughed as Dianna shoved him playfully.

Present

Dianna sat waiting in the Blackbird as it flew across the states to Detroit. They were going to try to land it in the baseball field, but considering someone had leaked out her arrival, they were now having to land even further at her old High-School. Oh the memories that lied buried there.

"How you holding up sis," Bobby asked as he took a seat in front of her.

"Nervous," Dianna mumbled into her hand as she continued to look out the window.

"It's Jack, what's to be nervous about? I thought you'd be thrilled to find out the boy wasn't using you to prove us wrong that he wasn't gay, then again," Bobby snickered as Dianna turned and narrowed her eyes at him playfully before kicking her leg out at him. Bobby managed to catch it though as he tried bringing it higher.

"OW, Bobby stop you dork," Dianna laughed hysterically as she tried standing up to lessen the pull in her leg.

"No, you tried to kick me," Bobby chuckled as Logan made his way over and extended his claws mere inches from Bobby's face.

"She might not have these anymore, but I do," Logan smiled innocently at Bobby, as Bobby smiled sheepishly at him, before dropping her leg.

"Thanks, daddy," Dianna said innocently as Bobby mimicked her from behind Logan's back.

"Bobby, stop being a childish baby, just because you have someone that can kick your ass now," Sarah said as she took a seat in his lap with Adrianna's arms and legs wrapped around her.

"The kiddo finally fell asleep, huh," Bobby asked taking Adrianna from Sarah's arms slowly as to not wake her.

"Yep, thank god," Sarah said as she turned to Dianna and replied, "They take forever to hit the sack. You're going to hate it."

"God, I don't even want to think about it," Dianna groaned before Storm came over the intercom on the ship.

"Hey guys, the local police department just called. They said they cleared an area for us to land near your old house Di. Will that be good," Storm asked as Dianna pushed the button beside her.

"That's fine Storm," Dianna told her, as Storm replied back, "Good, because I'm lowering us now." With that Dianna felt the sudden jerk of the plane as everyone scattered to get into his or her seats securely before the landing. Dianna slowly began to feel that butterfly feeling in her stomach once more.

Jack's P.O.V.

"She should have been here by now," Jack frowned looking over to James, and Tyler.

"Yeah, she's 5 minutes late, wow. Like that hasn't been done before," Tyler said sarcastically as James smacked his shoulder. The crowd was becoming frantic as the police began moving them back for a large space in the intersection of the streets.

"What's going on," James asked as he stood up to look over to the space they were making.

"I'll go check," their bodyguard said as he went down to talk to the police. When he came back he had a huge grin on his lips.

"She's arriving," he told them as Jack too broke out into a grin. Suddenly he heard a whoosh above them, before a plane suddenly stopped in midair above the cleared off area. Ever so slowly the plane descended down to the ground. When it touched down the whole crowd went silent. At first nothing happened until the hatch in the back opened up and hit the ground.

Slowly people made their way off of the plane, such as his brother Bobby, Sarah who was carrying Adrianna, Logan, that one Kurt guy, John, and then finally after a couple of moments Dianna peeked her head around the corner before slowly emerging. She looked beautiful as she came down off the plane wearing a pair of tight blue jeans, long white boots that extending halfway to her knees, she wore a long sleeved white dress shirt, and finally a long cream colored coat over it. Her hair was the color it had been so many years ago; however there weren't any blue highlights this time, and something about her just seemed different. She seemed much more meek, and scared like she was afraid of the crowd.

Jack remembered that picture he had seen of her mother years ago, and that weird dream he had had when he was in a coma. Dianna looked almost exactly like her mother, except for her face structure. However, she also had her father's features as well. It was safe to say that she could have gotten her qualities from either of them.

Jack watched as the guards helped make a path through the crowd for them. Dianna seemed to huddle into the blue man more than her own father. Maybe it was because he could transport her out of here if things got ugly.

Finally when they emerged out of the crowd and into the paparazzi, Jack's bodyguard decided to intervene. He managed to pull Dianna out of their grasps and into Jack's almost immediately.

"Sorry about all of this. Really I am," Jack smiled sheepishly at her, as Dianna merely just smiled at him.

"So, um…yeah," Dianna said looking over at the crowd of people.

"Yeah, I didn't really know they were all going to be here either. Guess I shouldn't have proposed to you over a live television audience, huh," Jack chuckled as Dianna rolled her eyes and replied, "Well Jack that is how you are?"

"So I'm waiting on that answer," he said as their friends and family finally made it the rest of the way over to them.

"I'm still waiting for you to get the ring out," Dianna smirked at him playfully. Jack smiled and scrambled for the ring on the chain around his neck. Unhooking the clasp he let the ring fall into his hand as he pocketed the chain. Getting down on one knee he looked up at Dianna.

"Dianna Howlett, you've been a Mercer since you've lived with us, but now I'm asking for you to finally take the real Mercer name. Di I love you with all my heart, and I'd give and do anything for you. Di, would you marry…please," Jack asked with his cute little puppy dog eyes. Dianna felt that warm feeling wash over her as the crowd got louder around her, as they coaxed her to say yes.

"Only on one condition," Dianna laughed getting down to his level.

"What's that," he questioned with a raised eyebrows.

"Don't argue with me, when you know I'm right next time, and please no more teasing me," Dianna smiled at him as he leaned in and kissed her. About that time the cameras and news crew went ballistic as the crowd went into cheers. They could hear their family behind them wolf whistling, and egging them on.

When Dianna pulled away, she whispered, "Yes, Jack. I'll marry you."

Dianna wanted to tell him everything, tell him about how she felt, how she had recovered since she'd be gone, and how she was…pregnant. Well, maybe she'd tell him that part later, but for right now, this was her and Jack's moment. 'This moment in time, some people could wait a lifetime,' as the song went. Right now that was the song her heart was feeling as Jack held her to him. Dianna had finally given in and let her heart merge with his. She was no longer resisting. She just hoped she was making the right decision.

As Dianna looked up at him and his lips found hers she knew she was making the right decision. Jack was hers, would always be hers. She loved him more than anything, and nothing, and no one was going to change that.


Hope you liked the end, well maybe not the end. I'm planning on making a sequel. I haven't quite started on it so, it might be a while, but it will probably be much darker than Part 1. It will mostly be about x-men, whereas this one was about Four Brothers. As you've read in this one you can see there's an oncoming war, and the cure is slowly dying. In the sequel to this there's going to be drama going on between Jack and Dianna, and her pregnancy; even after the child is born. There might be some romance in the next one, but probably very little unless I change my mind between now and then
