Epilogue

He pulled me back into his arms, and I could do nothing to resist. As we sat together in the grass, watching the stars and waiting for never, life became perfection.

"Namine," Roxas said softly. "Can we stay like this forever?"

"You know we will."

13 years later... (3rd person POV)

Roxas looked through a photo album as a short brunette girl lay asleep with her head on his shoulder. "I love you," He whispered, kissing her head. "More than the world." He went back to the pictures and came across several with Namine. "Wow..." He said softly, so as not to wake the girl up. "That was a long time ago. We were so happy."

"What are you looking at?" Another girl's voice said. She had dark blonde hair, and she was taller than the other girl, frowning when she saw her asleep next to Roxas. "What is she doing here?"

Roxas scowled. "Don't worry about it."

The girl huffed and folded her arms, stubbornly repeating her question. "What are you looking at?"

"Just some old pictures." A third woman sat down on his lap, also careful not to wake the sleeping girl up. She wrapped her arms around his neck and looked into the book he held.

She frowned. "I thought you got rid of those."

"Why would you think that?" Roxas asked, still flipping through the photos.

"Because I remember asking you to." She said pointedly.

"And I remember saying no."

"Roxas," She whined, and he smiled up at her.

"Why do you want them gone? It's not like there's anything horrible about me remembering my past."

"Our past," She corrected him.

"Relax, Namine. You look beautiful in the pictures. Almost as pretty as you are, now."

Namine smiled and kissed him softly.

"Um, ew?" The second girl dismissed herself, as the two laughed softly. "Night mom. Night dad."

"Good night."

After looking through the album together for a few more minutes, Roxas spoke up softly. "Namine, thanks."

"For what?"

"For everything." Roxas kissed her cheek and nudged her off of his lap.

"I can't believe you let her stay up so late with you. You know, her first day of second grade is tomorrow."

"She'll be fine." Roxas picked up the small girl. Their second beautiful daughter. He put her in bed and tucked her in. They went to the door of her bedroom and watched her sleeping for a while before walking down the hall to their own room. Just before Roxas closed the door, Namine stopped him.

"I love you," She said simply.

And he smiled.

Roxas kissed Namine and held her in his arms, like he did13 years ago to watch the stars. "Namine, can we stay like this forever?"

"You know we will."

The End.

---

hahaha! Roxas looked like a pimp!

what do you think?

Was it an okay ending?

It was an epilogue, so it didn't have to be miles long, but still, kinda short. Though I want to thank everybody for everything in this story and all my inspiration and drive to write, I want to specifically thank Lauren, the most amazing author on this planet, and one of my very best friends.

I also wanted to say thanks to Nikki and say that I really hope she doesn't move, because if she does, my prime inspiration will be somewhere down in Bakersfield, and that's just not right.

Thanks.

I'm so excited to write more!
