We Are The Roses

Part 19

5 years later.

Ali and David were sitting at the castle table. "Mia." Ali yelled up the staircase, "Come on" David yelled. "Coming." they heard Mia shout back. "Breakfast is ready, it is going cold Mia." Ali shouted up once more. Mia appeared at the bottom of the stairs and went over to the table and sat down. As they sat at the table eating pancakes they talked about the previous day. How they walked around the castle grounds and gardens and how Maya had met different animals, how she learned to ride a pony called Daisy, and had picked flowers to make a tiara just like her Mothers. Once they had finished Ali turned to Mia and asked "Do you want to come and see what Auntie Maya, Uncle Dawson and Alison are up to right now?". Mia nodded and took Ali's hand. Ali, David and Mia went to the window and Ali told Mia once more "That is the most beautiful person to live, after you of course. Do you know you are named after her?. "Yes. Auntie Maya" Mia whispered.

Maya and Dawson woke up to howling "Not again." Maya grumbled under her breath. "I'll get her, you rest. This is a big day for us." Dawson told her. "No, she is our baby, we will both go." Maya insisted. "Okay then." Dawson chuckled. As they walked through to Alison's room Dawson turned to Maya and said "I can't believe it is today. We are officially Doctors. Even if you can't work for a couple of months." Dawson said as a smile formed. 

As Maya spoke to Alison to get her back to sleep she told her how she was named after the most beautiful person she had ever met, after her of course, her Auntie Ali. As Maya looked up at the sky she smiled and said "We made it Ali.".

"Yes we did" Ali replied.
