AN- Did I mention how much I HATE the last chapter? Anyway...this one will be nothing but sap...once again. And some angst...and lovey dovey crap. Lots of lovey dovey crap. Enjoy!

Chapter 13: Epilogue...I suppose.

Dee went through the apartment. He had been picking things up off the floor, and had been cleaning all day. He had rested a bit, because of his ankle, but after he rested for a few minutes he was up and about again. Five months had passed since the incident happened. JJ and Ted were ready to go back to work, but Dee still had one more doctor appointment before he could go back. Bikky was due to arrive home within the next two weeks. That is, if he still wanted Dee in his life. Things were going good in his life...except one thing he wasn't ready for.

"Damn it! Tonight is the night. It just has to be. I mean really. He has been so patient with me over the past few months...I need to tell him."

Dee said to no one in particular. He was really worried about tonight for some reason. Sure he and Berkeley had gone through a lot over the past few months, but there was one thing in particular that Dee still wasn't sure about: his love for Berkeley. After that night, when Berkeley had found him in the warehouse, and had promised to come back for him, and then had risked his own life to go back and save him...Dee knew right then that he had loved him.

'Then why has it taken me this long to just tell him how I feel?'

Dee sighed as he went back into the kitchen to check on dinner. He may not have been a real good cook, but he could make spaghetti and meatballs. It wasn't that hard to boil noodles, and heat up the sauce.

'Too bad I never did figure out those eggs. Eggs are probably easier to make then this.'

He laughed to himself when he heard a soft knock at the door.

'Shit. Ok. Breath...just relax.'

Dee walked over to the door, and answered it.

"Good evening darling."

Berkeley greeted Dee. He was wearing a nice pair of black pants, and a nice dress shirt. He had roses, and wine in his hand.

"Good evening Berkie."

Dee stepped aside and let Berkeley come in.

"Oh. So I don't get any hello kiss or anything? I even dressed up for you."

Berkeley pouted as he looked at Dee.

"Fine. But then after that...I need you to do me a huge favor."

Dee kissed Berkeley, and then parted.

"Now...what is it?"

"I need you to put on that apron, and finish the food. My ankle is killing me, and I need to shower."

Berkeley frowned and concern crossed his face.

"Dee. You know until you see the doctor Monday you need to stay off of it. You had several pins put in it, and a plate. I think you need to listen to the doctor for once, or else you might have to go back into surgery."

Dee just smiled, and walked down the hall.

"Don't worry about it. It's only hurting because I didn't take my medicines yet. How's everything going at the precinct?"

Berkeley followed Dee into the kitchen.

"Fine. Everyone's been asking about you though."

Berkeley smiled.

"JJ is worried sick. He looks like a lost puppy without his Dee there."

Berkeley laughed at the look that came to Dee's face.

"Don't be angry Dee-sempai!"

Berkeley laughed even harder at Dee's angry expression. Dee just threw the apron at Berkeley and told him to finish things himself. Dee stormed off to the bathroom and locked the door.

Dee and Berkeley sat on the couch now. They had eaten dinner, and were now sipping the wine by the window. It was winter outside now, and the snow was falling down. The two of them just sat on the couch wrapped in a blanket, and listened to the soft quiet noises of them breathing.

"Berkeley?"

"Yeah?"

Dee swallowed hard. It was either now or never.

"I...have to tell you something."

Berkeley looked down at Dee, who had his head on Berkley's chest.

"What's the matter Dee?"

"Well...remember that time, when you told me that you wanted to take our relationship further?"

Berkeley nodded his head.

"Yeah. And you said that you wanted to have some time to think."

"Right. And I have had some time to think. I've had a lot of time to think. And...I want to...take us further then friends."

Dee looked up into Berkeley's eyes.

"Dee...are you sure? You really want to take us further?"

Dee nodded his head.

"I know that's what Ryo would have wanted. He wouldn't want me to just live life grieving over his death. He would have wanted me to move on, and live my life...even if it is without him. I want to live my life with you. Just like I was doing to Ryo...you waited for me to make my mind up. Except...this time it has a better ending."

Berkeley saw the small tears forming in Dee's eyes. He whipped them away.

"Oh God Dee...I love you."

Dee smiled before their lips crashed together.

"I love you too Berkeley."

The two of them sat for the rest of the evening just basking in the warmth of one another.

AN- Wow. That was the sappiest thing I have ever written. I normally don't do romance...so if I made any puke because of all the sweetness...I'm sorry. Anyway. That ends Moonlight. Now. As I said last chapter, I plan on making a sequel to this. So be on the look out for the sequel soon. Also, just some quick notes: I don't really know how long it takes for a person to heal after they just had pins and a plate put in their ankle, but my friends dad had that done to his ankle, and he was able to walk on it within like six or so months. Yeah. Anyway...I want to thank all the people who reviewed chapter one and wanted more to this, and all of my reviewers after that! Thank you! Without you guys, we wouldn't be here today! Well...we would but this story wouldn't. Anywho...Review please and keep an eye out for the sequel!
