Two months later.

"Soo.. what do you guys think about this dress?" Xion asked while turning around to show her mother [I'll make it Tifa], Kairi, and Olette her wedding dress. It was a strapless white princess wedding dress with beading on the bust. The woman that was helping her put on the dress in the dressing room then came out and placed a tiara with a long veil attached on top of the young woman's head and stepped away to take a look.

"I really like it!" Olette exclaimed as her eyes widened. Xion really did look like a princess that was going to be married at one of those elegant, royal weddings. Xion smiled as she had one approval. Now she waited for her mother and Kairi to respond.

The red head smiled at her sister and nodded. "I like it too, Xion. It looks way better than my mermaid wedding dress." Suddenly, Akira began to cry lightly from her baby carriage stroller. "Oh, Akira woke up.." the young woman said softly while picking up her child. Then cradling her in her arms. "Shh.. go back to sleep, honey." Kairi said in a caring tone of voice while gently swaying her daughter back and forth in her arms.

A soft smile pulled on Xion's face as she watched her sister take care of her child, kindly. Suddenly, she heard her mother crying. "Mom! What's wrong?" The young woman asked concerned while rushing up to the older woman. The woman with longer black hair had her hands on her eyes, spilling out all of her tears until Xion came up to her. Tifa looked at her youngest child and hugged her into a tight hug.

"I-I just wish that your father was still alive to see both of you and see how you two are doing.." The older woman said while pulling away. "I'm so happy.. You two have your futures ahead for you." Then she looked at the new mother of a child. "Kairi, you got married to Sora and now you have Akira.. " Tifa than looked at the young woman with black hair and ocean blue eyes. "And you Xion, you are getting married to Roxas! That was something I was not expecting until you told me on the phone that you was engaged to him. I'm just so proud of you two." The woman finally said while wiping away her tears.

Xion hugged her mother as tears began to swell up in her eyes. She too wishes that her father was still alive to see them now.


That night.

"Roxas! Stop that!" Xion exclaimed while laughing as her fiancee was tickling her sides. Roxas smiled, seeing that the young woman was now happy and kissed her cheek.

"Now will you tell me what's making you so sad now?" Roxas asked while wrapping his arms around her waist and looking into her blue eyes.

"You know.. how my father died when I was just seventeen, right?" she started off quietly while looking back at Roxas. The blonde nodded his head, wanting her to continue. "Well.. I realized that he wasn't there for so many things. My graduation from highschool. Kairi's marriage to Sora. Then our graduation from college, his first grandchild's birth, and now our engagement.." Xion finally said as her eyes lowered in sadness.

The young man cupped her cheek with his hand as he sensed that she was going to cry pretty soon. "Don't cry, Xion.. It's okay because I'll always be here for you." and with that said, Roxas then hugged her closely to his body as she began to cry.

A/N:: I KNOW! THIS WAS SUCH A SHORT CHAPTER. I'm sorry... next chapter gets better? ;D
