Dedicated to my boy Hayden (Who is utterly awesome, wonderful to his mother, a proud Canadian, handsome, smart, brilliant, a wonderful actor…etc). Congratulations on your film coming out, looks awesome. If you're ever in town (and reading this story) I'd love to take you out to dinner or something (Email me: Skywalker_mara@yahoo.com). And hey, since you've got a bit of cash, you wanna support me for the MS Supercities walk?
**grin** Yeah, I know…I'm allowed to dream….

"I…" Mara began. "I want to stay with you and Hal." She decided finally. Luke took a minute to stare at her then broke into the biggest grin Mara had ever seen on his face.
"You…you are gonna stay?" Luke laughed slightly, as if he was trying not to cry.
"Yes. If you still want me." Mara stared at him, her face not betraying her mix of emotion at her decision.
"Of course I do, of Course! I love you Mara! I'm so happy!" He almost screamed, and broke into tears, burying his face into her chest and crying. Mara stoked his hair tenderly and took Hal from him to hold him close.
"Its alright Luke…" Mara laughed gently. Luke looked up at her and smiled slightly, his eyes red with tears.
"Its not alright Mara, its wonderful. It's the most wonderful thing to have happen to me." Luke whispered and pulled her face in for a passionate but delicate kiss. Mara was surprised when her body responded so eagerly to his loving touch and kiss. Luke kissed her a bit harder, his hands moving to caress her face gently, not wanting to let the dream end.
"She's staying!" Leia almost screamed from the door, ecstatic. Leia ran into the other room and told Padme and Aleese, and the kids, who were all full of grins and holding each other. Luke laughed lightly, touching foreheads with Mara and grinning.
"They're happy." Mara grinned as she heard the kids run into the room and climb onto the bed. Before they knew it, the room was filled with family and friends, all congratulating the two of them on everything. There were so many smiles that Mara couldn't help but see that they really did care about her deeply, for such a special family.
"I'm happy, Hal's happy." Luke whispered. "Are you happy?"
"I think so Luke. I just need time to get used to the idea again." Mara whispered back and leaned forward to kiss him again gently. The room erupted into cheers and clapping, and Luke turned red with embarrassment.
"I love you." Luke whispered, trying to ignore the rest of the room.
"I love you too." Mara replied, smiling warmly and rocking Hal, who was awakened by the loud cheers, back to sleep.
"This is perfection." Luke grinned.
"Yes, yes it is." Mara smiled.
A/N: Almost at the end of the story, unless you guys have some objections. Enjoy!
