Set after "You're sure?"

"Riles? Wake up." Maya shook the sleeping mass next to her. "I figured it out. Wake up," she insisted.

"Peaches, go back to sleep. It's too early," Riley threw her pillow on top of her head to drown out her fiancé.

Maya pried the pillow out of Riley's claws and tossed it onto the floor. "Don't you want to know what our last name will be?"

"Yes... in about 4 hours. Sleeping." She reached over and picked up the discarded pillow and cuddled into it.

"Bay Window right now," Maya insisted.

"Suspension of disbelief that our window bench is a Bay Window ends once I pass out. Sleep now, Peaches," she throws her hand over Maya's face, on top of her mouth.

"Ring power."

"Curses!" A very sleepy and disheveled Riley turns over and sits up in the bed. "You're awful."

"This is important," Maya responded adamantly.

"Sleep is important," Riley corrected her. "Sleep is the most important thing at 3 o'clock in the morning."

"More important than me?" Maya pouted.

"You are deplorable."

"Somebody is being a grumpy pants."

Riley glared at her.

"Sheesh," said Maya reacting to the look she was just given.

"Why am I awake again?"

"I figured it out. Our name!"

"I swear if you woke me up to tell me you are sticking with Matthews I'm going to be extremely angry with you, Peaches."

"Real angry or fake angry?" Maya teased her.

"Oh, very real angry. Ice cream in the face angry."

"It's a good thing that isn't what I decided on then," she said smiling.

Riley's mood increased dramatically, "Wait. You actually came up with something?"

"I did!" Maya was beaming at her, "and its perfect"

"Matthews-Hart?" Riley asked.

"No, Riles. It isn't any of the ones you suggested."

Riley frowned, "If you suggest something generic like Smith or Johnson... this has to include our current names!"

"It does, sort of."

"Sort of?"

"I was up all night thinking about why I was so against Matthews-Hart. It is both our names, it should be an easy decision."

"You've never made things easy."

"I don't want to keep Hart, Riley," Maya admitted to her.

"That's your name though."

"Hart came from someone who abandoned me. Hart broke me, Riley. I have a chance to change it now. You are right, this name needs to come from both sides of our family. But Kermit Hart is not my father by anything other than biology. I want our name to be Matthews-Hunter."

Riley's face lit up. "Peaches, that is perfect. My dad is going to flip."

"Mine too," Maya returned her smile. "We shouldn't tell them."

"Huh?" Riley's face crinkled into confusion.

"Once we are married, they will announce us. I want that to be when he hears it. I want him to be surprised."

"Oh both of our dads are going to be surprised. Don't be surprised when they start cheering and try to make it all about them."

"I'm used to them making everything about them by now," Maya admitted.

"Can I go back to sleep now?" Riley asked midst yawning.

"Yes, Princess," Maya cupped Riley's cheek with her hand. "You can go back to sleep now."

"Kisses," Riley said determined.

Maya leaned in and gave her a gentle kiss, which upon receiving Riley flopped back over and fell back asleep instantly.
