Epilogue

3 Years later

Mackenzie had graduated from High School after going back once she had partial usage of her legs again. There, she met a boy, Aaron and they started dating. Never had Kenzie been happier and Lindsay was happy. She was headed to study Law Enforcement at NYU while her boyfriend Aaron studied Biology at NYU. Lindsay was sad to see her daughter grow up, but glad she'd found happiness and someone whiling to stand with her (A/N totally stole the 'Someone whiling to stand with her' from Castle). Thought, she and Danny still had the twins Lucy and Louis to worry about. Both where 3 years old, overly hyperactive and needed a lot of attention.

Stella and Mac had revealed feelings for each other and where happily married, awaiting the arrival of their first child. Flack and Angell had welcomed a little boy 2 years ago. Hawks had found the love of his life and together, they were married. Adam had started dating Hayden and they were just happy like that.

The whole team where meeting up at the restaurant for their Friday Reunion. Flack, Angell and their son Dylan were the first there. Soon came Lindsay, Danny and the twins. Mac and Stella arrived not long after with Hawks, his girlfriend Anna, Hayden and Adam. Like always, Mackenzie and Aaron were the last to arrive.

"We'd thought you'd never show up." Joked Flack. Kenzie laughed and hugged everyone. After 3 years of physical therapy, hard working and effort, she'd gotten full usage of her legs. If someone would just meet her, no one could guess what she'd gone through. After staying in a wheel chair for almost a year, crouches for 9 months and a cane for a little over a year, she was finally able to walk normally. Obviously, she had sequels and often had back aches. She would never stand nor walk to long because then she would start to have pain, but she was slowly getting better.

Everyone took a seat around their usual table and started chatting away. The twins were being trouble makers as always and Kenzie was always the one to bring them to reality. For a 3 year old, Lucy was very smart and much like her sister. She was an absolute girly girl and wanted to do everything her older sister did, when she saw her considering Kenzie had moved in with Aaron a few months back. At first, Lindsay wasn't sure, but after Danny had talked with her, she'd agreed as long as she got frequent phone calls and didn't live too far from the house. So, they'd found a loft just down the street from her parent's house.

Louis wasn't as smart as his sister, but he was really into sports. He and his father would always go play baseball together. Danny was glad his son had found an immediate bound to baseball and was surprise when his daughter had started to find interest in that sport.

"So, Stella, is it a girl or a boy?" asked Kenzie. Stella looked at Mac and smiled. "It's a little boy"

"I told you" Kenzie put her hand out to Danny and smirked. He pulled out a 50 dollars bill and passed it to her. Stella gasped and laughed. "You didn't actually bid on the sex of my baby." Lindsay laughed and Danny stuck his tongue out at Mackenzie.

"You're so immature." Lindsay told her husband. He smirked and placed a soft kiss on her lips. "Eww, mental picture." They heard coming from Kenzie. Aaron laughed and held his girlfriend's hand.

"Please, it's not like you two don't do it" Stated Angell laughing as Kenzie blushed.

"So, how you liking the 18 years old?" asked Mac.

Kenzie shrugged and took a bite of her food. "I'm officially legal in Canada, but sadly not here." The whole table burst out laughing and Lucy tapped her little hand on her sister's leg.

"Why everyone laugh?" She asked in her little innocent 3 years old voice. "Because I just said something and they thought it was funny." The little girl nodded and continued to draw her picture.

Everyone continued to eat their food passing jokes from time to time. Once dessert had arrived, Kenzie had gotten up saying she had an announcement.

"You're not pregnant are you?" Lindsay asked her daughter. Aaron chuckled and replied for Kenzie. "Nah, she's not pregnant."

Lindsay sighed in relief. "Well what is it?"

"Aaron and I talked about it and we'd like to get married. But first, we wanted to talk to you guys about it because you're all family."

"You know your 18 and for someone that age I think you're responsible. Dear daughter, you found a really good man and I. I think you should go through with it. I give permission" Lindsay smiled and started to tear up. Lucy looked worried at her mom and went to hug her and asked her if she was okay. Lindsay laughed at the little girl and explained to her what was actually happening. Everyone went around to the newly engaged couple and congratulated them.

Danny went to see Aaron and told him to take good care of his daughter. After the Twin's birth, Danny had adopted Mackenzie and she considered him like a father, considering he was the only fatherly figure she'd had every since she was born.

6 Years later

Mackenzie and Aaron were a happy 24 years old married couple. Kenzie had finished her studies and was a proud detective. Aaron on the other hand was a biology teacher and together they where a happy couple. Lindsay and Danny had just hit the 40s and both still work at the lab with all their friends. The twins where a handful, both nine years old. Lucy was a smart little girl and acted the same way that her sister did, when she was her age. Louis had more trouble in school. He had been diagnosed with Dyslexia, but he did everything he could to understand. He was really into sports, especially baseball. Dylan Flack was 8 years old and an only child. Angell had found out she couldn't have any more children, but both where happy with just him. Stella and Mac had their little boy Samuel Dan Taylor and a few years later, another little boy, James Manuel Taylor. Hawks had a little girl, Akeela whose mother died a few months later. Adam and Hayden where still childless but where happily married.

Kenzie parked her car and waited outside the elementary school. She watched as kids rushed out the school and the twins made their way to her car. Every Tuesday, she had a day off of work and so, she would pick the twins up, spend the afternoon with them, and bring them back before their bedtime. Louis and Lucy sat in the back of the car and tied their seatbelt.

"Hey guys, how was your day?" She asked them watching them through her mirror. Louis started explaining his day and Lucy just listened. When he was done, she started explaining her day. By the time they were finished, they had arrived at the apartment. She parked the car and took both of their bags as they ran to the door. They greeted the doorman and then made their way to the elevator. The wait wasn't long and they made their way to the loft. When they go there, Aaron hadn't arrived yet, but he wouldn't be late.

She helped the twins with their homework, especially Louis and then prepared supper. She smiled watching the two play around the loft.

Aaron had arrived around 5 o'clock, just in time for dinner. They all sat around the table and ate their food.

"You're a much better cook than mommy." Stated Lucy. Kenzie chuckled and looked at the little girl. "Well, thank you. But I don't think I'm as good as mommy, she's the one that though me every secret. The little girl's face light up and she asked her big sister "When I'm old enough, can you teach me?"

Aaron smiled and rested his hand on his wife's leg. He loved how well she was with children. "Of course" Kenzie told her sister.

They continued eating and once they were all done, they all cuddled up on the couch and watched a movie. When it got close to 8 o'clock, Kenzie assembled all the kid's things and brought them back to her parent's house. Aaron went out front to get the car and waited for them to come. They drove a short distance and made it to Lindsay and Danny's apartment.

"Hey we're here." She yelled as she opened the door. She saw her mom make her way from the kitchen holding a cloth. "Hey baby" Lindsay kissed her daughter's cheeks and then Aarons. The twins had already disappeared to their bedrooms.

"Mom, we need to talk to you and dad." She stated sternly. Lindsay nodded and called Danny. He rose from the couch and claimed that he hadn't heard them coming in.

"Becoming deaf already?" Joked Aaron. Danny laughed and said it came with old age. To that, Kenzie hit her father's shoulder playfully and said "Come on, you're not that old." He laughed and asked what it was that they needed to talk about.

Kenzie sighed and glanced at her husband. "I'm pregnant" Lindsay's face light up and she hugged her daughter while Danny patted the younger man's shoulder.

"But, I, I thought you couldn't have any children?" Lindsay asked confused. "Guess this is our little miracle."

Lindsay smiled at the young couple. It was unbelievable how happy they were.

Few weeks later

Kenzie woke to her phone ringing. She rolled over and looked at caller I.D. Seeing it was her partner, she answered it with a not very welcoming expression.

"Monroe"

Hey, we've got a body

"Hugh, okay I'll be there in 30" She hung up and pulled herself out of bed. She checked her clock which indicated 5:35 a.m. She sighed and got ready. She stopped and pulled her shirt up in front of the mirror. She smiled at the small bump that had formed. She felt her husband's arms wrap around her and she smiled. They shared a kiss until she interrupted saying she had to get to work. After lots of convincing, Aaron had let her go and she continued to get ready. She got in her car and made her way to her crime scene.

When she got there, the smell of the dead body was making her nauseous. The medical examiner, Jade also known as Kenzie's best friend saw her friend leave the scene and knew what was wrong.

6 years later

She stood on top of the grave holding the little's girl's hand tightly. They stayed there for a little until making their way to another grave. That one looked newer than the other ones. The little girl looked up to her mother and hugged her as she let a few tears fall.

"Hi daddy, it's me Aimee. Today, I made a new friend and she's really nice. And she's new. Me and mommy made cookies and they were really yummy. I miss you. And mommy misses you too." She told to the grave. Her mother smiled and placed the flower bouquet down on the ground.

"She's growing up really fast. She's exactly you. Can you believe our baby's already 5? I mean it as if it were yesterday that we held her in our arms for the first time. We miss you and we know you watch over us all the time" She kissed her hand and placed it on the grave like she'd been doing everyday for the past 4 years. They got up and walked away.

Kenzie unlocked the door to the loft and they made their way in. They got ready and headed to the restaurant for the team's Friday reunion.

When they got to the restaurant, Lindsay and Danny where already there with the Twins, who were both 16, Angell was there with Flack and Dylan. Mac was there with Stella and their two sons, Samuel, 14, and James, 12. Hawks was there with his daughter Akeela and Adam and Hayden couldn't make it. Jade, Kenzie's best friend was there with her boyfriend and their partner, David and their other partner Max. The three had started coming to the Friday reunion and together, they were all considered family. Like always, Kenzie was the last to arrive. She kissed everyone hello and took a seat next to her best friend, with her daughter sitting next to her.

Lindsay sat next to Aimee and repeatedly glanced at her daughter worried. Before everyone started to eat, Stella stood up and looked at her 'niece' Kenzie.

"I want to give a toast to Aaron. He sadly lost life in an accident but will always be in our memories." Mackenzie smiled gratefully and stood at her turn.

"Thanks everyone for sticking with me. I learned that life often isn't like we want it to be, but its life and you've got to deal with it. Sure, losing Aaron is hard, but he'll always be in my heart and in his daughter's heart. Life brought me lots of challenges but I was able to survive them all, and I'm grateful for that. So, thanks for sticking with me." She sat back down and everyone clapped. Jade hugged her friend and whispered in her ear 'You're one strong girl'.

The End!
