Orphans

Epilogue

( Sixteen years later) 

I was sitting in the living room with my two year old daughter, Rae. She had gotten her brown hair from Bond, but my dark blue eyes. She was playing with one of her blocks on the ground. She laughed once her blocks fell from being stacked on each other. I'm glad she found it some entertaining. Bond had gone out with Aaron, for the time being. Mary had told me earlier that she along with Rebecca and Hope were coming over. 

When the doorbell rang, Rae squealed. I went to open the door with her following behind me slowly. Once I opened the door, Mary hugged me. 

" It's been a while," she said. " How are you and the little one doing?" she asked. I shrugged. I heard Rae cooing at Mary. She then released me and looked at Rae. 

" You're so cute," she said. Rae responded by putting her hand in her mouth. Rebecca chuckled. 

" Married life treating you well?" she asked. I nodded. 

" What about you? How are you and Aaron doing for you first time sharing a bed together?" Rebecca sighed. 

" I think I would rather sleep on the couch. He kicks in his sleep." Hope laughed gently. 

" Why are you laughing?" Rebecca asked. " What about you and Josh?" Josh had been a friend that she met in high school. They had started dating when it was our second year. 

" We're okay. I don't know how you guys waited so long. I can't wait to get married." Rebecca chuckled nervously. 

" As long he doesn't kick you in his sleep, I think you'll be fine."

Aaron and Bond had came later and hung out with us. Aaron sighed as he sat down next to Rebecca. 

" Time flies by quickly, doesn't it?" he asked. I nodded.

" I can't believe it. It felt like we were just at that orphanage dealing with whatever happened. Now, we're here and together with kids." I then looked at Rebecca and Aaron.

" Speaking of which, when are you two having kids?" I asked. They both looked at each other and shrugged. 

" We're thinking about it," Aaron said. " Though, we need to put aside some things so that we don't mess this up." Bond grinned. 

" You'll be fine," he said. " Just spend lots of time with them and don't make them upset." 

" That's the same advice I had given you," I said. I then sighed. " I guess it works in both things." Rae then climbed up on the couch with Bond and I. She squealed and reached out for Bond. He gladly took her and hugged her tightly.

I smiled as Rae was screaming a little bit from her father's hug. 

" Now that's cute," Hope said. 

                                                                                    ~

The others left around midnight. I had put Rae to bed. She had fallen asleep sometime around ten o'clock on Bond's lap. She played until she collapsed. After I put her down, I went into the room that I share with Bond. 

He was putting on his shirt. He didn't have a lot of muscle, but I still found him cute no matter what. He turned once he noticed me. 

" Is she really asleep?" he asked. I nodded.
" She's knocked out. It doesn't look like she'll wake up anytime soon." He smiled. 

" She was really having fun today. Maybe we should have another one." I felt my face getting red. 

" Y-yeah," I stuttered. " Maybe."Bond grinned over at me.
He then crawled onto the bed, sighing. I joined him and hugged him.

" You're warm," I said. 

" You too. I want to fall asleep and not wake up until evening." I chuckled and got out of bed. I heard him whimper. 

" I'm changing relax." He nodded.
My family wasn't much, but it kept me happy enough. I lightly touched  my stomach. Maybe, another addition to the  family will come around soon. 

A/N

I finally done with this story. It took me a while to know what was gonna happen next, but I'm glad I got it done.
