Epilogue

The day had finally come. Steve's injuries had healed, and Jaime and Oscar's need to be together was too strong to ignore. Jaime was awake before the sun was up, and took a jog down to the office complex and into Oscar's arms. They'd decided to keep things extremely low-key until they went official, so she was meeting him before Callahan arrived for work. She could spend some quality time in his arms, planning the future, and she'd be home in time to make breakfast and then sit down with Steve. It would be the hardest thing she'd ever done, but once it was over, this would be the start of a whole new life for Jaime...

Steve was awake early as well. The day had finally come. Today, he planned to ask Jaime to marry him. They had grown so much closer during his recuperation, almost the way they used to be. He was sure that, this time, she'd say yes. She was out of the house when he got up, but he figured she'd gone for a little jog, and Steve decided to run his other errand first, then come home, make coffee and make his move. First, he was headed down to Oscar's office to share his good news and ask Oscar to be his best man. This, he knew, was the start of a brand-new life...
