A/N: Thanks for all the stunning reviews on the last chapter! I loved all of them, and I love all of you who reviewed, and I'm glad that you enjoyed the story so much! I'm kind of sad right now because this is the last chapter in this story. A short epilogue of how Seth and Summer's lives went on after their reunion. I hope you like it as much as the rest of the story, and please review, one last time :)

You Can't Change A Good Thing

She was so beautiful. So pretty. And even though she was so tiny, she was the most precious thing in his life. He loved her even more than he loved Summer. No, that wasn't true. He loved her in a complete different way than he loved Summer, but he loved them both more than his own life, that was for sure.

Seth readjusted the camera he was holding and grinned.

"Move a little to the left…" he said and found Summer making a face at him.

"You're the one with the camera, if someone's moving it should be you." She said, trying to sound annoyed.

Seth shook his head but continued smiling. "All I want is a tiny little space between the Princess and you."

At the word "Princess", Summer's gaze softened and she looked down on the tiny bundle of life that was sleeping peacefully next to her. Her daughter. No, their daughter. Seth's and her beautiful little two-month-old baby daughter Carrie.

Every time Summer looked at the baby she couldn't believe that she was actually hers. Her life seemed so perfect that she was afraid sometimes that someone would wake her up and tell her that it was over.

But every time little Carrie had a dirty diaper or was crying and neither Seth nor her knew how to calm their little daughter it seemed real again.

"Seth, let me do that." Sandy's voice interrupted Summer's thoughts and she smiled as she saw how unwillingly Seth seemed to give in to Sandy's request to take the photo from them.

"I'm not sure if you can do that." Seth said and scratched his head.

At that comment, Summer laughed out loud and threw her head back. "God, Cohen..." she giggled and wiped away some laughing tears that had appeared in the corners of her eyes, "if anyone knows how to take a picture it should be your dad, don't you think? So now move your ass over here."

Seth pouted and looked from Sandy who smiled broadly at him to Summer who had an amused grin on her face. "But I-"

"Shut up and move your bony ass over here." Summer said again, this time with a threatening look on her face that made Seth give in eventually.

He held his hands up and shrugged. "If you say so..." he mumbled and went over to his little family, spooning Summer from behind and watching the sleeping baby over his girlfriend's shoulder.

"Perfect!" Sandy exclaimed and grinned broadly. "You're gonna love this."

"I could have done this too." Seth whispered into Summer's ear and the same rolled her eyes, turning slightly around to face him. "I'm sure you would've." She said and pinched him in the cheek with her fingers. "And now shut up and smile into the camera."

Seth did as he was told and gave his father the friendliest smile he could manage when he heard a very familiar voice in the distance. The shrill squeaking of his little sister – that meant another interruption of the family photoshoot.

And just as he had predicted, Lilly's little face poked into the room, her eyes widening twice their normal size when she spotted babyCarrie laying in front of Summer, and – typically Cohen – she just ran over to the baby, not caring at all that her father was trying to take pictures of Seth, Summer and little Carrie.

"Aww, can I hold her? Pretty pleeeeeaaaase." Lilly asked, clapping her hands to emphasize how great it would be for her to hold the little girl.

Seth rolled his eyes and sighed, but Summer smiled broadly and stroked a strand of hair away from Lilly's forehead.

"No – Yes" they answered at the same time, and Lilly looked quite confused all of a sudden.

"Stop being a pain in the ass and let dad take the photos, will you, Lil?" Seth asked, his voice unnerved.

Summer frowned and hit Seth in the ribs with her elbow. "Shut up, Cohen." She mumbled and faced Lilly again, putting up a friendly smile. "Sure you can hold her, honey, but let your daddy take the photos first, okay?"

Lilly sniffed a little but nodded eventually. "Okay, I'll be outside playing with the Barbie family... They're taking a trip to the zoo today." She said and turned around without waiting for an answer.

"Oooh, suspense." Seth mumbled while Lilly was walking away, and Summer hit him in the ribs again, this time a little harder than before.

"Ouch! What was that for?" Seth asked indignantly.

"That was for making fun of your sweet little sister." She explained and turned her attention to Carrie who had started to whimper a little, softly stroking the baby's tiny head that was covered by beautiful dark hair.

"Is everybody ready? I'm an old man, my weak arms can't hold up a camera like this for long…" Sandy's voice interrupted the happy family moment and Summer looked up from her little daughter and smiled at him innocently. "Sorry, Sandy. Of course we're ready." She answered. "Aren't we Seth?"

"I'm always ready." Seth said and grinned one of his irresistible smiles that had always made Summer's heart melt away.

A few moments later Sandy was putting his photographer stuff away while Summer was rocking her little daughter to sleep in her arms, Seth sitting next to them and watching them. From the look on his girlfriend's face he could easily tell that she currently was in a state of pure happiness. He had never seen Summer looking at somebody the way she looked at Carrie, not even at him. It was this special mother-look she had since she had been giving birth to their daughter, and everytime she wore it it made Seth love her even more.

There she was, their daughter Carrie, their creation, the bond that would hold them together for the rest of their lives, whether they wanted it or not, in the arms of the only woman he had ever loved. The woman he knew he would love until the day he died.

Just as Seth was about to once again consider himself as the luckiest man on the planet, his little sister came marching into the room again, stucking out her small chest proudly and grinning from one ear to another. "The photos are finished, can I hold her now?" she asked and placed herself in front of Summer and Seth, watching baby Carrie expectingly.

Seth rolled his eyes and stood up to help his sister sit in a nearby rocking chair. "Fine then. You won't be quiet until you really can, will you?" he asked while Lilly smiled brightly at him. "Not really!" she exclaimed and leant back in the chair.

"Okay, but you have to stabilize her head, okay? Because she hurts herself if you don't." Summer said and softly put the baby in Lilly's arms. "I know." The same said and rolled her eyes. "I'm not dumb-o."

Summer and Seth gave each other an amused look. "She's just like you." Summer said and sat next to the rocking chair, stroking her daughter's head and watching over her while Lilly held her.

"Hey Summy? Can I ask you something?" Lilly asked, her gaze never leaving the baby.

"What Lilly?"

"They want us to write something about bliss in school. And I will ask anyone I know what is their bliss, and then I will write about it. Cool, huh?"

Summer grinned and nodded. "Very cool. Who did you ask yet?"

Lilly shrugged and giggled as baby Carrie hiccupped in her arms. "No one. You're the first." She said and smiled brightly at Summer who raised an eyebrow.

"You want to know what's bliss to me?"

Lilly nodded and focused her attention to the baby in her arms again. Summer wasn't sure if Lilly was really paying attention to anything she would say now, so she hung on to her thoughts for a little while.

And she only knew one way to describe what was bliss for her. It was just as easy. Everything that made her life what it was was gathered in this room, close to her. She threw a sideways glance over to the wall that Seth was leaning on, a happy smile on his face. Everything she had and everything she loved started with him. He had shown her love in the past, and she knew he would show her even more of it in the future. And Summer knew that she would always love him, as long as she lived. The love between them might change over the years, the initial fire would slowly but surely subside, and what would be left then was real love that would last a lifetime. Summer had no doubt that Seth was the one she would be with for the rest of her life.

She looked back to the little human being that was now sleeping soundly in Lilly's arms, and her heart was filled with even more joy. As if Seth hadn't given her enough by loving her, he had given her this wonderful little girl that sealed their love forever.

"Bliss is…" Summer finally said and turned her head to smile at Seth. "What you see here, Lilly."

At those words, Seth couldn't help but smile even more. He knew her so well, and yet she surprised him everyday. When he looked back on the early college years, he didn't even know how he had survived one single day of being without her. Their break up had been the stupidest thing they had ever done in their entire lives, but it had also given them time to realize how much they really loved each other.

And after Summer had come back to him at the day of her wedding with Craig, they hadn't spend a single day apart, just as if they had wanted to make up for lost time. Carrie was the result of that. One year after they had officially gotten their college degrees, the little girl was born, and Seth had never been more amazed by something or someone before. The birth of his first child would always be burned in his mind, the countless hours of labor Summer had to go through until she finally was there, the first scream the tiny person had made as soon as she was there, and the idiotic feeling of happiness as the nurses had placed the crying baby on Summer's chest. Seth knew he would cherish those moments forever.

And when the time was right, he would show Summer how much he really loved her. He let one of his hands slide into the pocket of his sports jacket, fingering for the tiny box that was in there. A content smile crossed his lips and he sighed. He didn't have any doubts that Summer would accept the ring that was in there when he asked her tonight.

They brought Carrie to sleep every night together, and he was planning on proposing to her then.

And when Summer turned her head and smiled at him again, her eyes full of love, Seth knew it was the right thing to do.

It was just as easy as that. You can't change a good thing.
