Epilogue
Two Years Later
"Do you Hunter Bradley take this woman, Victoria Renee Hanson to be your wife?"
Hunter stared in the shimmering blue eyes, "with all my heart."
"Do you Victoria Renee Hanson; take this man, Hunter Jacob Bradley to be your husband?"
"With all my heart." Tori's voice trembled with the emotion of the moment.
Sensei smiled, "very well I pronounce you man and wife." The sound of applause came as the two kissed. Tori felt the same thrill go through her each and every time he kissed her. Both he and Amanda had filled the hole in her heart and she couldn't wait for what the future would bring.
Two Years Later
The bedside clock read 2:15 a.m. as Tori, nine months pregnant sat up, "Hunter wake up."
Slowly he did, "what's wrong?"
"Oh nothing I'm just in labor that's all."
Hunter jumped up and called the hospital and then Shane to come over to look after Amanda. He had just arrived when the six year old came to see what was with the commotion.
"Daddy what's wrong?"
Hunter knelt in front of his daughter, "remember what we talked about? What would happen when the baby came? Well in a few hours you'll have a new brother or sister."
Amanda's face lit up, "neat."
"Push Tori push!"
Tori looked at her husband, "shut up that's what I'm doing!"
It was now ten o clock at night; in four more hours it would've been a full day of labor and Tori was not happy. The doctor looked up, "ok just one more push."
Tori pushed for all she was worth and a scream came as she felt her child leave her body, and then she heard a new sound.
The very first cry of her child.
Hunter was speechless as he watched the baby being cleaned and then laid in his arms, "congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Bradley it's a boy."
Hunter sat down and handed their son to Tori, her eyes filled with tears at the small bundle, a perfect little duplicate for Hunter.
"Oh he's beautiful." She whispered.
"Just like you."
The doctor smiled, "what will you name him."
Tori smiled at the name she and Hunter had agreed to, "his name is Blake."
Just the Amanda came in and Hunter smiled, "say hi to your brother."
"He's small." She said.
Hunter sat her down on the bed, "would you like to hold him?"
Amanda nodded eagerly and Tori's eyes filled with tears at the sight of her daughter holding her baby brother. Hunter looked into her eyes.
"I love you Hunter" she whispered.
"I love you Tori now and forever."
