Three years later:

Riker paced outside the bathroom door impatiently. Deanna was inside she had been inside for five minutes waiting on her pregnancy test results. Will new she was almost 3 weeks late but she didn't have the symptoms she had with Emilee. He tried not to get his hopes up but his gut was telling him she was pregnant.

Meanwhile inside the bathroom Deanna sat on a nearby stool holding a 21st century pregnancy test in her hands. She knew it was old fasioned but she just wanted to see what it felt like to get two lines. The timer goes off as Deanna looks at the test. TWO LINES! She was pregnant! She came out of the bathroom looking sad.

"Oh I'm sorry Deanna just because it hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it won't happen."

Deanna handed the test over to Will who peered at it.

"Two lines what does that mean?"

"We're pregnant!

Deanna squeals jumping into Will's arms. Lily, now an eight year old and Emmy, now a three year old ran into their parents room.

"What's the matter mom?"

"Nothing Lily."

"Then why are you screaming mommy?"

Emmy asked in her child like voice.

"We're having a baby!"

"Yeah!"

The family all hug each other.

Epilogue:

Life with its odd endings and beginnings

Its occasionally very painful middles

Its surprised hellos

And at times it astonishing adieus

It's green its blues

Its flowers which come

Like sun bursts on a gloomy day

Forgotten

Life with its rare gifts

Its strange charm

Its strong arm

Protecting you from harm

Its blunt pain

Its bleak rain

Its sorrow and its grief

Is somehow all too brief

The flame

With eyes aglow

And above all, dear friends

Before you go

Before it ends

And there it remains

No further tale to tell

Dare once…twice…

Often if you choose

But dare, yes dare to love

And if you do make sure

That you love well

For love is worth it all

It's worth a call

A dream

A scheme

A sleepless night

A carriage ride or crossing

Half the world

For a glimpse, a touch, a truth

For love is youth

Is fun, is grand

A carnival

An opera ball

For truth to tell

Love is Life

And Life is Love

Most importantly Love is All
