Epilogue

8 Years Later

"Bridget! Timmy! Ryan! Your aunts and uncles are here!" Jo called to her children as she went to answer the door. She was about to open it when she was pulled back by strong arms and spun around. She found herself looking into laughing green eyes. "Kendall!" she exclaimed as she leaned into her husband's embrace. "Would you like to let me go? I need to get the door," she said.

"Well, I wouldn't like to-" Kendall began but was interrupted.

"Oh, don't worry you two! Carlos can get the door open!" James called from outside. A moment later, Carlos and Stephanie walked in, followed by Camille and Logan, and then James and Jennifer.

"Uncle James! Aunt Jennifer!" Bridget yelled as she ran towards the two. She had shoulder length blond hair and her father's green eyes. "Will you help me with my hair?" the seven year-old asked as she held up her comb. She and her brothers were all seven years old.

"Sure thing, shorty," James said.

"Let's go," Jennifer added as they walked off.

"Aunt Camille! Uncle Logan!" Ryan shouted as he ran towards the couple. "Will you read this book to me?" he asked as he looked up at them with wide brown eyes. He had dark blonde hair.

"Of course," Camille said.

"What book is it?" Logan asked as Ryan led them to the living room.

"Uncle Carlos! Auntie Stephanie!" Timmy called as he ran into the two. Carlos laughed and Stephanie smiled. "Will you go on the swirl-y slide with me?" He had blue eyes, which his parents were not sure how that happened, but he had blond hair like his siblings.

"Yes!" Carlos shouted as he put on his helmet. The two ran off. Stephanie smiled and hurried after them.

"Wait for me!" she called.

Kendall and Jo looked at each other and smiled, happy at the chance to be alone. They sat down on a small couch in the main hallway. Jo looked up at him. She moved her hand up and gently traced the light scar on his cheek. He was amazing. He had gotten it because he saved his best friend. She was lost in thought until Kendall put his hand on top of hers.

"Memories?" he asked as he rested his forehead against hers. She nodded.

"Don't worry. It's in the past now," Kendall told her before giving her a soft peck on the lips. At that moment, Bridget came running down the hall, followed by James and Jennifer.

"Mommy! Daddy! Look at my hair!" the little girl said excitedly. Kendall laughed as he lifted her into his arms.

"You look great, sweetie," Jo said just before Ryan, Logan, and Camille came down the hall, acting out a scene from the book they'd just read. After they finished, all the adults in the room clapped.

"Mom! Dad! Can you play four on four with us?" Timmy asked as he came running. Carlos, James, Logan, Timmy, Ryan, and Bridget looked at Kendall and Jo with pleading eyes. James had taken to latching himself onto Kendall's leg while Bridget looked at her dad with wide innocent eyes. Carlos and Logan stood on either side of Jo with pleading looks while her two sons grabbed her hands.

"Fine," Jo said and looked at her husband.

"You know I wouldn't turn that down," Kendall said as he moved Bridget onto his back and followed the others out to the yard. With Camille, Jennifer, and Stephanie as referees, the game began.
