My heart beats fast.

Today’s the day.

Today is the day everything changes

I take a deep breath, Mello adjust the tie on his tux “everything’s okay mom” he huffs tucking a strand of my hair behind my ear.

I laugh “Mello you haven’t even proposed to Layla yet”

“I know” he takes a little black box out of his pocket “I’m going to ask her tonight”

I gasp grabbing the box. “Hey!” he yells trying to grab it back from me, he almost trips on my train when Rain grabs his arm.

“Mello! Get serious for one god damn day!” he growls through his teeth. He then turns to me smiling adjusting my dress. Like nothing happened.

I hug Rain close “are you sure you don’t want to walk me down the aisle?”

He smiles “Watari would be so proud of you”

I start tearing up “thanks my little storm cloud”

He kisses my cheek, he walks down the aisle. Followed by Layla,and Angela, Near, Matt and Emily.

“It’s okay Angel” I look down meeting her little blue eyes “just take a deep breath”

I wipe away my small tears “thanks Snow” I mutter adjusting my bouquet of red roses. It’s been three years since I have been brought back to life.

*flash back*

(Three years ago Angel’s P.O.V)

I tip toe into the room, Layla sound asleep on the couch in Lawliets arms.

He’s sound asleep; his face snuggled into her hair.

I slide onto the couch across from them; I stare at my daughter and fiancés perfect faces.

I lay my head down onto the arm of the couch. My eyes start to flutter close.

I’m awake to the sun shining through the windows, Lawliet and Layla still lay on the couch across from me. Lawliets eyes start to slowly open.

I smile.

“Good morning, my love” I whisper.

For the first time…

Lawliet begins to cry.

He gently lets go of Layla who is still sound asleep, I stand up with him wrapping my arms around his waist. His arms wrap around my shoulder.

He’s still crying into my hair.

“Angel!’ he shrieks “my beautiful, loving, smart, caring Angel!” then finally he leans down to kiss me.

(Layla’s P.O.V)

I rub my eyes before slowly opening them, I feel as if I’m dreaming at the sight I see Mom and Dad hugging.

“Mom…” I mutter while stretching “It worked?”

“Yah baby” she sobs “it worked!”

I smile getting up to hug her.

“So… we are a normal family again?”

No answer.

Mom is staring into my eyes.

Only than do I notice that her name and lifespan were gone.

I look at Dad… his name and life span was gone too.

I’m scared, I run to the elevator pressing the button. The door swings open revealing the mirror wall inside. I stare at the girl looking back.

That can’t be me… my jet black hair is now a dark red, my eyes glow blue like mom’s, my hunched back is almost straight.

“Beyond Birthday didn’t inject you with his D.N.A”

I turn around to see Angela smiling sweetly at mom.

“He injected you with a virus that all shinigami’s have” she than turns to me “I was able to drain your system of it while you were in your coma. Since you’ve awaken you have been cured but the color of your eyes and your hair just now changed”

“So this is how…” I gently stroke my cheek with my fingers still in disbelief. “I was supposed to look like this?” I relies that besides a few features on my face… I don’t look like Dad anymore.

My blue eyes began to water.
