This is a Future fic that is borderline AU.

Introduction

The year is 2019 and time has certainly changed since Bianca and Maggie lifted off the ground and headed to Paris to start a new life together. The years have changed both Maggie and Bianca. These many years have brought joy and sorrow, moments of regret and moments of simple pleasure. The years brought on conversations they wished they could have again; fights they wish they could erase and children they love more then each other.

The first year in Paris brought with it a romantic relationship and that brought with it an engagement and the engagement brought with it a marriage. The second year in Paris brought, them a decision to have more children and a pregnancy that brought them two wonderful fraternal twins and gave Miranda a little sister and brother, Christian and Emily. When the twins were 3 and Miranda was 5 there was another conversation of having children and at the end of the year Bianca gave birth to a little boy that her and Maggie named Franklin, Frankie for short.

The years flew by then...they went through a lot of rough patches. Nine years into their relationship and 6 into their marriage they hit a large bump in the road that Maggie considered a hill and soon after that considered a mountain. Bianca had been caught with another woman the day before their 7th wedding anniversary. In an attempt to win Maggie back Bianca pulled out all the guns, more like roses jewelry and a lot of apologizes. It didn't work and Maggie had insisted they move back to Pine Valley, she was being offered a job that she couldn't pass up and with Bianca still trying to win Maggie over they packed up from Paris and moved back to Pine Valley. Once back in Pine Valley things cooled down to the point where Maggie and Bianca barely spoke and Maggie was a few days into getting a divorce but the divorce didn't come till years later.

Bianca and Maggie separated later that year but continued to raise their children together. They each had their own home in Pine Valley and never let the other not see the kids. Soon after the separation Bianca began to drink and soon after the kids were informing Maggie that Bianca was always drunk. Maggie had tried to help Bianca back on her feet which seemed to make it worse, and 5 months into the separation Maggie threatened to take Bianca to court for full custody of the kids, if she didn't get some help. Bianca left for rehab the same week Maggie had delivered her threat and didn't come back for a while.

When Bianca returned she came looking for the forgiveness of her children and Maggie's love and heart once again. Maggie and Bianca being who they were, and are, got back together. Two years after their reunion they had a very familiar discussion and by the end of the year they had another addition into their family, Melissa Myrtle Montgomery-Stone.

The family became what it was once again, a great family. Maggie and Bianca's relationship was at its peak and their children and their lives were perfect. The kids were given cousins and a new aunt, Anna Devane had married David Hayward again and they became honorary grandparents to the Montgomery-Stone children, and an old aunt; Greenlee returned to Pine Valley after Maggie insisted she come back. Greenlee and Maggie became good friends with Erin and both Greenlee and Maggie forgave the Lavery men who hurt them. Babe and Bianca became friends again, to Maggie's displeasure and JR was now as close to Maggie and Bianca as they had been when they were just kids. Except now their kids were like they used to be, just at a much younger age.

There were new duos and trios and foursomes and five some growing in Pine Valley. The third generation of Kane became old news and the new generation of kids was just what the town of Pine Valley needed.

Spike and Christian were the best of friends always together and complaining when they weren't together. Molly Chandler was always with Frankie doing what ever it is the two of them did. Adam Chandler III was always with Kate Martin, Miranda and Emily. The poor boy was just outnumbered by girls and by the way it looked now...or it looked then Maggie had predicted Adam to be gay when he got older. JR and Babe didn't really like that at first but as time passed they grew to realize it might be true and excepted it, though for a while they all had blamed each other until Maggie just said it was her fault and they all laughed and began to blame her. Bianca and her got a kick out of that, so did little Adam.

Martin Kane and Ashley Kane, Josh and Amanda's children were always hanging around with Melissa, they were always attached to the others hips. Mathew and James Martin were the twin boys that seemed to steal all the hearts of Pine Valley's youngest generation of girls, Jamie and Tad are both very proud though Julia had some things to tell her husband and father in law about how her sons acted. Bianca and Maggie had some trouble with Emily and Miranda when they finally realized they liked boys and they didn't have cuddies.

Though as the years continued to pass and friendships grew and old enemies became friends again, and old friends became enemies. With old relationships ending and new ones beginning and lives of loved ones past into the afterlife and new ones began the lives of people in Pine Valley seemed to become dull. The parents just watched and raised their children and their parents watched as they all became what they were meant to be. They became doctors, lawyers, private investigators, actors, lovers, mothers, fathers, grandparents and aunts and uncles... and life was good and peace full.

Though in Pine Valley nothing could truly be peace full for very long and after 14 years together Bianca and Maggie became one of those many old couples that broke up and made it final. Though to all those, close to them none knew why they finally had ended their lives together. All they were told was it was over and when they came back from what was supposed to be their 14th anniversary vacation to Pairs they had divorce papers.

And that is where the story truly began. The two spiteful ex-lovers wanted all their children to themselves and still refusing to tell anyone other then themselves what had caused their final separation they went to court and court is where they have been for the last few months.
