"Daddy! Daddy!" Blaine yells, giggling as he runs into the living room and throws himself on Derek's lap, a giggling Meredith trailing behind.

"I'm going to get you," Meredith giggles as she tries to grab Blaine as he wraps his arms around Derek's neck.

"Sab me, Daddy!" he giggles as he buries his face in Derek's neck.

Derek chuckles as he winks at Meredith. "How about we get mommy. Together," Derek whispers into Blaine's ear.

Blaine pulls back slightly, a huge smile gracing his face. Three months ago he didn't know his daddy. He was happy, but now he has his daddy.

Derek winks at Blaine again before reaching out and grabbing one of Meredith's arms. She screams as he pulls her to the couch. "Derek! What are you doing?"

"Get her," he tells Blaine. Blaine lets go of Derek and jumps on Meredith. He begins to tickle her as Derek holds her down.

"Stop! Please!" she shouts through her laughter.

Derek chuckles as he leans down and whispers in her ear. "Say the magic word," his husky voice reverberates against her eardrum.

"I did!" she cries hoarsely.

"Not please. Say yes," he says as he pulls back and looks at her, his eyes twinkling with happiness.

Meredith wrinkles her brow in confusion as she stares at him. She doesn't even notice that they have stopped tickling her.

"What was the question?" she asks somewhat breathily.

Derek's smile broadens as he glances at Blaine. He has never felt so fulfilled in his life. He leans back down as he reaches into his pocket. He brushes his lips softly and slowly across hers.

"Marry me," he murmurs against her lips as he can feel his heart pounding against his chest wall.

Meredith's eyes widen as they quickly fill with tears. "Seriously?" she asks hoarsely.

Derek chuckles as he nods as opens the velvet box she didn't notice he was holding. "Seriously," he nods.

They sit in silence for several moments as Meredith stares at him in awe. "Mer?" he finally asks after a few minutes as he begins to worry.

Suddenly, a smile forms on Meredith's lips. "Yes," she whispers.

"Yes?" he asks in a choked voice as he leans down and kisses her quickly.

She wraps her arms around his neck as she nods. "Yes," she answers louder.

Derek chuckles as he buries his nose in her hair. "I love you…so much," he mumbles.

"I love you too…so much," she responds without hesitation.

As the two resolve into a fit of happy laughter, Blaine squeezes in between them, hugging them both and solidifying their bond that neither time nor distance could dissolve. Thirty months ago, they were strangers. Thirty months ago, they were almost lovers. Now, they are more than lovers. They are family.

Fin.

So...that's it. The end. I hope you all liked it and I would like to thank you all for reading. It took me longer than I would have liked to get this update up...but life is insane. This story was all about them finding each other again...and they did...they found each other and more. I have left the ending open for a sequel...as I do for most of my fics...but I am not promising one...and if there ever is one...it will only be after I have completed all the ones I have now...so once again...thank you all for reading. It has been a pleasure to write.
