Author's Note: Well… we've come to the last chapter of this story, shall we see just who wins the bet between Aisha and Kat.

Adam rolled over in his bed, waking up when he realized that Anaya wasn't sleeping curled up to him anymore. "Wha?," he yawned, shaking his head to get his brain functioning again, "Where'd she go?" He asked aloud to himself as he slipped out of his sheets and stood up. He took a sniff of the air, he smelled bacon, and pancakes, "She can't be… when'd she learn to cook," he asked himself, still slightly sleep fogged, as he headed out of the bedroom towards the kitchen.

Kat was busying herself at the sink, washing up the pans she had used to make breakfast with, watching out of the corner of her eye as Anaya play-fed her Froggie at the kitchen table, making tiny 'nom, nom, nom,' noises and cooing at him. She laughed softly and set a pan in the dish-rack, she felt amazing; she just knew, deep down in her heart, that everything was going to be alright.

Adam walked into the kitchen, stopping dead in the doorway. He blinked a few times, quite sure that it was a dream, or a delusion of his sleep fogged mind. He stared at the figure with her back to him. It couldn't possibly be who he thought it was, she was probably in London by now. "Kat…" he whispered, fearing to raise his voice anymore, thinking she would just disappear, again.

Kat tensed up hearing that whisper from the doorway. It's no or never, she thought to herself as she turned around. She bit her lip, "Adam…I…"

Adam quickly crossed the distance between them, wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close to him, he wasn't going to let the chance pass him up again. He'd already done that once. He caught her lips in a passionate kiss. "I love you," he whispered as he pulled away slightly.

"I love you too," Kat whispered a little breathlessly, caught off guard but the sudden and amazing kiss. "I'm so sorry Adam," she bit her lip. "I…" she trailed off, she wasn't sure what to say, now that she was face to face with him, and the surprise declarations of love were out of the way.

"You came back," he said softly, the realization of what had just happened and what had just been said hit him like a ton of bricks and caused his cheeks to flush. "How?"

"I got halfway to New York and realized what a huge mistake I was making," Kat replied softly, biting her bottom lip nervously. "Thanks to some of our friends, who know me better than I know myself, I was set straight and put on a flight back to where I belong…here," she said with a smile.

"I'm so glad you're back." Adam held onto her tightly, fearing that if he let go, he'd wake up and realize this was all just a dream and he was alone still.

"I am too!" Anaya got up and ran over to the couple, squeezing between their legs. "Pick me up!" She exclaimed looking up at them.

"I still don't understand…" Adam said as he picked up Anaya, holding her between himself and Kat.

"I'll explain everything, in detail, later, when you're more awake," Kat promised. "Now, why don't you sit down at the table, since I can't very well serve you breakfast in bed anymore." She playfully pushed him and Anaya towards the dining room, "Go on now…"

"If this is a dream, I don't want to wake up," Adam murmured to himself as he set Anaya down and headed for the table. "Ouch!" He exclaimed, looking down to see Anaya pinching his arm. "Honey… let go."

"See Dad, it's not a dream," she replied matter-of-factly as she let go of his arm.

"Thanks," he said shaking his head, when did my daughter become such a smartass, pondered to himself.

"So, Kim and Aisha brought you back here?" Adam said as he got up, taking their dishes to the sink. "Where are they now?"

Kat laughed, "They are down on the pull out in the basement, catching up on their beauty sleep, since they were up all night plotting against me." She got up and wrapped her arms around Adam from behind, and rested her head on his shoulder, watching him rinse off the breakfast plates.

Adam chuckled at that, "I can't believe they did that," he said setting the dishes aside and turning around to face her. "Actually, I can believe they did that," he amended after a moment, a thoughtfully look on his face. "I'm so glad they did," he said placing a soft kiss on her lips.

Kat smiled at the gesture of affection, why hadn't she realized this sooner, she wondered as she sighed contently as Adam's arms looped around her waist. "If you're so glad, pay Aisha the twenty dollars I owe her, I lost a bet because of you," she said poking him in the shoulder playfully.

"Bet? What did 'Sha bet with you about?" He asked curiously, letting go over her to catch her finger before she could poke him again. He laced their fingers together and brought her hand up to his lips so he could place a soft kiss on each of her knuckles.

Kat laughed softly and pulled her fingers away from his lips, "She told me you would grab me and kiss me as soon as you saw me, I didn't think you would; you did, so I lost the bet."

Adam laughed, "So you want me to pay up?" He wrapped his arms around her waist again, and pulled her close. "Well, I guess since it IS my fault you lost the bet, I could be a gentleman and pay her." He smirked, "But… it will cost you."

Kat raised an eyebrow at that, and did not think about how sexy he looked when he was smirking, "Cost me what?" She questioned curiously.

"You have to be mine forever more," he said before leaning in, kissing her passionately. After a few moments he pulled away, "Well…"

It took Kat a moment to gather her thoughts after that heated display of affection, "I think I can handle that," she said softly, licking her lips. "I'll be yours forever." She reached up and caressed his cheek, "And a day."
