Reeve had recovered the night before and had been anticipating his talk with Yang.
He knew he'd made a mistake not going after her and letting Cinder get to him, but now was his time to set things right.
"I hope she can forgive me, I may not have done anything with Cinder but that look on her face, I never want to be the cause of it again." He swore to himself.
Finally after a while he saw Yang walking towards him in the distance.
"Okay, be cool, worst case scenario, Yang doesn't forgive you and you end up alone, no pressure." He thinks, panicking.
"Ruby said you wanted to talk to me." Yang said.
"Yes." He mumbled.
"I just wanted to apologize to you, I shouldn't have let Cinder get away with what she did, but you know I love you and I would do anything for you to forgive me for what I've done." Reeve pleads, kneeling down to her.
Yang looks at him and a small smile breaks as a tear falls from her eye.
"It's alright, I understand what happened and I know you fended Cinder off, I know you would never do anything to hurt me." Yang says, putting her hand on his shoulder.
Reeve looks at her, staring into those eyes he always found himself lost in.
"So, I'm forgiven?" Reeve asks.
"Yeah, you're forgiven." Yang says, kissing him on the cheek.
Reeve does a backflip in excitement and pulls her in for another kiss, more intense than ever before.
Yang pulls back, catching her breath.
"However." She says.
Reeve looks to her with a confused expression.
"I seem to recall you said you would do anything for me, right?" Yang says wickedly.
"Yes." Reeve said, terrified of what she would come up with.
"Well then, the wedding is coming up, my dad will be there and hopefully my mom too, so it would be so nice if you could tell them that we're together and all about our relationship." Yang told him her terms.
Reeve paled in fear, he barely survived his encounter with Qrow and now he had to deal with both of her parents.
He gulped and stuttered out his answer.
"V-Very w-well, if that Is w-what you wish."
Meanwhile.
Ren and Nora were just finishing the final touches on the wedding.
"Okay, so Weiss will be maid of honor, Pyrrha, Ruby, Blake and Yang will be the bridesmaids, Jaune will be the best man and of course, Zwei will be the ring bearer." Nora listed off.
"Great, and who will be walking you down the aisle?" Ren asks.
"I asked Ruby's uncle Qrow, he said he'd be fine with it." Nora said.
"Excellent, seems like everything's all set." Ren says.
"Yeah, I can't wait to read my vows to…you." Nora suddenly stops.
"What's wrong?" Ren asks.
"Ren, we remembered to find an officiant, right?" Nora asks.
Ren's eyes widen in realization.
"No." He says in shock.
Nora face plants her head on the couch.
"Great, now what are we gonna do?" Nora asks.
"We'll think of something, don't worry." Ren tries comforting her.
Yang and Reeve enter, seeing the disappointed looks on their faces.
"Hey, what's up?" Yang asks.
"We ran into a little problem, turns out we forgot to get an officiant for the ceremony." Ren explains.
"Oh man, bummer, I bet we could find somebody." Yang says.
"How?" Nora asks.
"I'll do it." Reeve offers.
"Really?" Nora says, with hope in her voice.
"Yeah, I can go into town and get a license in no time flat." Reeve says.
"You'd really do that for us?" Ren says.
"Of course, you guys are like family to me, it's the least I could do, it would be an honor." Reeve says.
Nora immediately after hearing this, tackles him into a hug.
"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" Nora thanked him over and over.
"You're welcome." Reeve choked out.
"Nora, crushing, me." He said, slowly turning blue from her hug.
"Oops, sorry." Nora said, letting him go.
"It's alright." Reeve says.
With that the plans were set and soon enough, the next chapter of their lives would begin.
Back in Menagerie.
Raven had set out to the docks, catching the last ship headed for Patch.
She had taken Yang's words to hear and had decided it was time to reunite with her family.
"Hopefully I won't disturb the celebration, our family drama shouldn't interfere with the couples big day." She wished for the best.
She took out her photo of Team STRQ once more, staring at Summer.
"I'm sorry old friend, I hope you can forgive me." She says.
In that moment she ponders what Summer's daughter will be like.
She had never even seen Ruby before and now she was appearing out of nowhere.
"I hope she doesn't resent me, who knows, maybe she'll see me as a mother figure." Raven hopes.
"Now boarding Patch! I repeat, now boarding Patch!" The captain alerted.
"Moment of truth." She thought, exiting the ship and venturing into the forests.
It didn't take long to find the lone cabin in the area.
Raven walked up to the door, going to knock but held herself back.
She looked down, thinking for one last second on her decision.
She shook the thoughts aside and knocked on the door.
"Coming." She heard a voice from inside.
The door opened, revealing Taiyang.
"Raven?" He says dazed.
"It's been a long time." She says.
The two stand there in silence, not knowing what to expect.
Eventually, Taiyang breaks the silence and offers her to come in.
Raven obliges and enters the home.
She takes in the view, seeing pictures of Yang and Ruby as they grew up, hanging on the walls.
She smiles sadly as both joy and regret take her.
"What are you doing here?" Taiyang asks coldly.
"I was invited by Yang, she told me her friends were having a wedding out here and that I should come." Raven explained.
Taiyang smirked then in a split second his expression went unamused.
"So, that's what it took to get you out here." Taiyang says with disdain in his voice.
"No, I know it may take a long time, but I came to make things right between us and to make things right with my daughter." Raven says determined.
Taiyang looks into her eyes to find any sign of doubt or betrayal, but finds nothing of the sort, only remorse and genuine care.
"Fine, I believe you, but know this, if you ever hurt us like that again, I won't let it go this time." He warns her.
Raven nods and goes to leave before being pulled back into a hug.
"It's good to have you back, Raven." Taiyang whispers.
Alright, well that was nice.
See you next time and have an awesome day.
