"We only have one life. That's all we get. That's how it works, the question is how you want to live it and who you choose to be"

Diego was in a room sitting on the couch while flipping his knife when Lila stood in the doorway "Are you still playing hard to get?" she asked "Quiet. I'm brainstorming" he said "Smells like it. Crack a window" she said as she entered the room "Look, I just got a lot of things to think through" he said "Think what through?" she asked "The end of everything" he said "Mmm. Okay. Well, while we're all waiting for the big breakthrough, the boys are waiting downstairs before the wedding and while you are at that bachelor, Jane and I will have some girl-talk" she said "I'm not going to that wedding" Diego said as he threw his knife away "Like hell you're not. You're my plus-one. Get dressed!" she said as she walked over to him.
"I'm not going to no stupid wedding at the end of the world when I'm supposed to be saving it, alright?" he said "Our best bet was a human Rubik's Cube, and he went kablooey. What do you suggest?" she asked "Gotta be somebody's ass we can kick" he said and she took his belt off.
"What are you doing?" he asked "You're going to the wedding" she said "We got a kid to take care of" he said "You think I don't know that? I'm the one incubating that brat--" she said as she pulled him off the couch and down on the floor.
"Then I don't get why you're not fighting harder for this" he said "Not all fights are worth fighting for. Odds are, we don't survive this one" she said "I'll take those odds if it mean I get to spend it with you and the baby" he said and she looked at him while his eyes widened in shock over what he had just said "What happened to Mr. Lone Wolf doesn't need anybody?" she asked "He met a crazy lady. Changed his mind" he said and she smiled before she gave him a kiss.
"I love you, Diego, but I'm not gonna go on some doomed mission with your shaggy brother and senile father" she said "You have to listen--" "No" she said, cutting him off "You spend tonight fighting your bloody apocalypse or being with me" she said "Don't do that" he said "You can't have both" she said as she leaned back while they were looking at each other
She then stood up and started walking towards the door.
"Lila" he said and she stopped before she turned around and looked at him as he stood up.
He then threw her that bracelet they made together in the Asylum "I choose you" he said and she smiled before she ran towards him, jumping into his arms and kissed him.

Jane was in Sloane's room, laying on the bed "And that's is my story" she said as she have told Sloane everything about her life.
"Woah, and you made it through that. That is what I call a fighter and a survivor" Sloane said as she was knitting her wedding dress.
"I was also about to give up, but then I met Five and he made me want to enjoy my life again. He saved me from the darkness and he became my last hope and only light" Jane said "I think it's a funny story about how you two met, from enemies to lover story" Sloane said "Yeah, and he actually still had that scar I gave me once when I stabbed him" Jane said and Sloane let out a giggled.
