Summary: Sometimes, without realizing it, we inflict our own punishments. At other times, we feel entitled to inflict them on others. All the while we ignore that we must learn to forgive and forget.

Rating: T (will change to M later.)

Pairing: CB. Last DB chapter as a couple.

Disclaimer: I obviously do not own anything.

AN: I'm very sorry for the wait. Not only did I make you wait for this update, but I also haven't delivered my promised CB Christmas fic. I would have finished it some time ago, except that I've been dying from the flu. Yes, that's my excuse, and I'm sticking to it. My internet at home has failed me recently to boot, so I think I'll just have to give you a belated Christmas present for Valentines day. And, as always, thank you Tati for betaing. She really is wonderful.
