It's sad to think that some won't find it
And others won't recognize it even when it comes
We're all at the mercy of the will of love

This was life, this was all she ever wanted. Okay, so he wasn't blue eyed and riding on a white horse. He wasn't rich, but luckily the Council provided for her. Payment for services that went way above and beyond anything any other slayer had ever given them. He understood the importance of family, even if it was the one you had to make.
He didn't have a last name and that didn't bother her. She'd be Mrs. Summers instead of Miss Summers. At least she was getting to be a Mrs. Slayers normally never lived long enough to get that. She was in love, and at her happy cookie-her.
Buffy smiled at him as he lifted the veil to kiss her. His large hand cupped her face as he leaned forward. She could see Mikey, Leo, Donny, and Casey behind him, getting ready to whoop it up, just like she knew April, Dawn, Willow and Faith were planning on doing. Giles and Splinter were watching like the proud fathers they were.
"Love you, Raph," Buffy murmured against his lips.
"Love you, too."
