Epilogue
What's Lost? What's Gained?
The door opened and the blizzard outside came rolling in with the man in his late twenties. He closed the door behind him and turned just in time to see his seven-year-old daughter come running down the stairs to jump into his arms.
"Daddy's home!" she said happily as her dark chocolate brown hair flew around her face. A young boy of the age of three with light brown/blonde hair came down the stairs to meet his father.
"How are my to little angels?" He asked with a smile.
"Daddy!" He yelled as he tried to climb down the stairs. His mother came down just in time to pick up the boy and greet her husband.
"More like little devils." She said sarcastically as she kissed him on the cheek.
"My children? Never." He laughed.
"They just made a mess of their rooms is all. How were the classes?"
"These rookie M.S. pilots all think there the best the world has to offer." She let out a little laugh. Heero set his daughter Saline down and bent down to pick up David. "And how was the big guy today?" The little boy laughed as he was lifted into the air.
"So when are you going to get a normal job and work closer to the house?"
"When Relena Dorlain comes back to life." She hit him on the arm playfully. "You keep that up and you won't be considered a pacifist any more." Relena glared at him. He set David down and began to take his jacket off.
He snaked his arms around Relena's waist and proceeded to kiss her passionately. He then rested his chin on top of her head.
"I invited Duo and Hilde to join us for Christmas, as well as Milliardo and Lu." Relena said.
"Not Duo's four little demons."
"Five. Hilde's pregnant again." Relena laughed a little.
"We better go eat so we can put the little ones to bed."
"Don't forget we still have twelve presents to wrap and Christmas is in less then a week and we're out of paper."
"I'll get it in the morning."
Ten Years Later.
"Well dad, how do I look?" Saline asked her father.
"You remind me of your mother when we were in high school. She wore a dress exactly like that one. I never knew how lucky I was back then to have her."
"That good huh?" Her dark blue eyes matched the dress.
"So when's your boyfriend going to pick you up?" David said with emphasis on 'boyfriend'.
"He's just a friend." She said to her father, Heero. The doorbell rang. "Oh daddy, could you get that? I left my earrings up stairs."
"Sure."
"And don't frighten him. Please!" David shook his head and continued playing his video game.
He opened the door and a young man around the age of seventeen was standing there in a tux with a bouquet of roses. "Is Saline here?" He asked. Heero eyed him up and down.
"Yea. Step inside." The young man stepped inside the cabin. "She'll be down in a minute." She walked down the steps and claimed her date.
"Goodnight daddy." She said as she walked out the door.
"Well it's time I left for John's house." David said as he turned off his game.
"Be careful sweetie" Relena called from upstairs.
"Don't worry mom I will." He yelled up the stairs as he walked out the door.
Relena walked downstairs to her husband. "They grow up to fast." Stated Relena.
"Yea." Was all Heero said.
"When I think back at what you told me of the time when I was supposedly 'dead'. I think it's amazing what you can lose, and what you can gain." Heero nodded in agreement.
