Eleven years later…

Wendy felt her heart swell with a warm feeling of familiarity as her bluebell eyes scaled the height of her home on Patch. The heat and light of the setting summer sun did not do the aging structure justice.

The snapping shut of car doors behind her was a reminder to not keep her grandparents waiting. She looked back over her shoulder, smiling at her parents and younger sister as they hoisted their luggage.

She readjusted the strap of a backpack on her shoulder and pulled her rolling suitcase behind herself with a smile as large and as bright as the sun itself. Her hand hovered over the doorknob as she waited for her family to catch up to her.

"What are you waiting for, kiddo?" Yang laughed as she stopped beside her, "Grandma's waiting."

"I just want us all to be here," Wendy shrugged as Wilma and her mother caught up.

Wendy beckoned for Wilma to join her as she swiftly pushed the door open. They both jumped inside.

"Guess who's here!" Wendy cheered.

Raven and Cinder gasped, briefly startled by the sudden appearance of their grandchildren.

"Wendy!" Cinder cheered as she leaped from the couch and crushed the girl in a hug, "Look how much you've grown!"

"Yeah, it feels like every summer we see you, you get even bigger," Raven chuckled as she stole a quick hug as well.

"That is because we do grow bigger," Wilma added with her finger in the air.

"Wilma! It's so good to see you again," Cinder grinned as she hugged Wilma even tighter.

"Y-yes. It is so wonderful to see you too, Doctor Fall," Wilma wheezed.

Cinder pulled back and looked at Wilma with a chuckle, "Would it kill you to call me Cinder? Or even Miss Cindy if you have to."

"I think Cinder will do," Wilma laughed as her cheeks turned pink.

"Wilma, Hun, we go through this every summer," Raven laughed as she briefly hugged Wilma, "You don't have to act so professionally with us. We're your family."

"Right. Forgive me, Grandmother," blushed Wilma, "Er… Raven."

Raven and Cinder laughed until Wendy and Wilma joined them.

"Hey, Mom! Hey, Cinder!" Yang smiled as she set her luggage on the ground.

"There you two are," Cinder grinned as she pulled Yang and Weiss into a hug, "I took the liberty of tidying everything up before you got here."

"Cinder, you're too kind," Weiss smiled fondly, "You really shouldn't have."

"Yeah, I mean we're probably just going to make everything a mess again," Yang shrugged.

"I tried to tell her," Raven shrugged back.

"Oh hush, you," Weiss and Cinder scolded their respective wives.

A wave of laughter rippled over the room.

"Well, we certainly know who takes after whom in this family," Wilma rolled her eyes, playfully.

"Yeah, no kidding," Yang chuckled as she pulled Wilma into a tight side-hug.

"Mom, what did I say about personal space," Wilma strained as she lightly pushed away from Yang.

"My bad, Hun," said Yang as she planted a kiss on Wilma's cheek.

"So, how has life in Atlas been treating you two?" Raven asked Wendy and Wilma.

Wendy nearly smirked at the familiar question. Her grandmother, Raven, asked that every time they came to Patch for the summer.

After her mother, Weiss, became the CEO of the Schnee Dust Company, the whole family had to move to Atlas so her mother could be closer to her work. Since her mom, Yang, was a huntress, it was easy for her to find work in and around the floating city too. However, they would always return to Patch over the summer to spend some time together with family in their old home.

"Same as it always is, honestly," Wendy began, "I can't wait to be done with prep school. I'm going to apply to Beacon as soon as I can and pray I get it."

"Well, you have two generations of top huntsmen and huntresses in your family, so I'd be shocked if you don't," said Cinder.

"Wait a second," said Raven with furrowed eyebrows, "Didn't Jaune and Pyrrha mention their son has been admitted to Beacon the other day?"

"I think so," Cinder nodded.

"I wouldn't doubt it," said Weiss, "Jaune and Pyrrha are Beacon Academy alumni too, after all."

"Hang on. Priam is here?" Wendy asked, "Like, on Patch? Right now?"

"Yes? Your parents didn't tell you Jaune and Pyrrha are visiting Patch this summer?" Cinder asked.

Wendy eyed her parents.

"I didn't know it was that big of a deal," Yang shrugged and looked at Weiss.

"I-it's not," Wendy stuttered, "It's just been a while since I've seen him."

Wendy ignored the knowing look she received from Wilma. Priam is Uncle Jaune and Aunt Pyrrha's only child. She remembered how inseparable they were when they were younger. Argus was not terribly far from Atlas, so they would get to play together a lot… That was until Priam started prep school in Argus.

"Oh, that's right! I wonder if Priam even remembers us," Yang chuckled.

"It hasn't been that long," Weiss rolled her eyes.

"Hey, so I don't mean to cut our reunion short, but Tai's hosting a bonfire tonight, and he said we should head over there as soon as you all got here," said Raven.

Cinder gasped, "I almost forgot!"

"Oh, awesome! Is everyone already there?" asked Yang.

"Everyone," Raven answered.

"It will be nice to see Lena and Nyssa again," said Wilma as she smiled at Wendy, "I'm sure Auntie Ruby and Auntie Blake are dying to see us as well."

"You should've heard them over the scroll," Raven chuckled as everyone began to funnel out of the house.

"R-raven," Wendy nearly whispered as Raven was about to follow everyone else outside.

Raven stopped and turned to Wendy expectantly, "What is it, child?"

"Is… Uh… Is Priam going to be there?"

Raven smirked and walked out of the house, "Come and find out."

A small smile crept its way onto Wendy's face as she stepped outside and closed the door behind her.

That's my grandma for you…

Looking ahead, she could only feel happy. Her family being together like this was not something that happened often, but it was always worth the wait.

Being surrounded by so many people who love her was the best experience of her life. They would always be close to her heart no matter what.

She learned that lesson from her own mom after all. When it mattered, Yang had her family to fall back on.

And Wendy knew that her family would be there for her forever and always.

A/N: This epilogue, like the one for Project Freezerburn, is more of a sneak peek for future stories I have an interest in writing while showing you guys what life is like for our freezerburn family now. Wendy and Wilma are grown up, and I'm already shipping one of them with another OC, Priam. I think I'm going to take a break from this 'freezerverse' for now, though. I think I'm going to write about a different ship. I've been feeling a Fallen Petals vibe. Maybe a nice, angsty Monochrome story? I'll probably just end up writing another freezerburn story. I do love the Weiss x Yang dynamic! Once again, thank you so much for reading my story! Please leave a review and stay posted for new stories.

I will be posting this story on AO3 too!
