Kurapika lets go of Neon's hand as she spins her way out of the courthouse. The cherry blossom scented air of spring hits her face as a breeze blows by. Kurapika leans against the railing as he watches her dance, grinning from ear to ear.

Neon throws a bouquet of flowers in the air. "I'm the luckiest girl in the world!"

Kurapika walks toward Neon. He grabs her arm. "Mind if I join you, Mrs. Kurta?"

"Of course!"

Neon wraps her arms around Kurapika's neck as he grabs her waist. The newlyweds dance in front of the courthouse, oblivious to the world around them.

"I wish we had some music," Neon says.
Kurapika presses his lips against her ear. "You gave me the best of me so you'll give you the best of you so show me I'll show you," he sings.

Neon buries her face in Kurapika's shoulder. She sniffles. "I love you so much."
"And I love you." He presses his lips against hers. Not caring who is around to see, he kisses her passionately. He breaks away for air after a few minutes. "Let's go start our new life together."

An older lady witnesses them and smiles. "Want me to take a picture of the two of you?"
"Yes, how kind of you to ask," says Kurapika. He hands her his phone.

Kurapika holds Neon's waist while she rests her hands on his chest. They smile as the lady takes a few pictures of them.

"What a nice looking couple," she says as she returns Kurapika's phone. She stares at Neon's belly. "How far along are you?"

"Six months!" Neon places her hands on her baby belly.
"Boy or girl?"
"We don't know yet. We're keeping it a surprise."
"That's nice. Not many couples do that nowadays. Mind if I touch your belly?"
"Go right ahead," Neon answers, proudly.

The lady places a hand over Neon's belly. "May this tiny life grow without any complications."

As if accepting the lady's prayer, the baby Kurta kicks her hand with force.

"Oh my! That's a strong baby," she says.
"Thank you. Your words mean a lot to us," says Kurapika with a bow.
She bows before turning around to leave.

Kurapika takes Neon's hand and the two of them walk to the car. Much to Neon's dismay, they decided not to have an extravagant honeymoon. Kurapika explained how it would be smarter if they saved the money for the baby since he's working less.

Neon found a bed and breakfast that overlooked a field of cherry blossom trees.

The pleasant staff members greet them as soon as they walk in. The historic three-story building has a cozy vibe with its warm colors and vignettes. Kurapika and Neon walk up the stairs to their room on the third floor. He opens the French doors that lead to the balcony. Cherry blossom trees line either side of the building.

While Kurapika is outside, Neon is eyeing a small box that is sitting on top of the bed. She sits down and grabs it. When she opens it, a piece of paper falls out. She unfolds the paper and sees Kurapika's handwriting all over it. She begins to read it.

Dear Mrs. Neon Kurta,

I remember the first time I laid my eyes on you. I apologize that it wasn't love at first sight. It's not because I didn't find you beautiful. With a heart full of rage, I couldn't believe love even existed. However, over time, you awoke my heart and filled it with something words cannot describe.

I never want to leave your side for a mere moment. You hate that I am a hunter. I understand why. I couldn't imagine waiting up for nights at a time wondering where you're at or if you're safe. Trust me when I say I'm trying to find something a little safer. Not only do I have you to protect, but our child as well.
