Epilogue
2 weeks later…
"What did you want to show me? And why do my eyes have to be blindfolded?" Drew asks as Alice guides her through their new home.
"Just keep walking, Drew. I told you, it's a surprise," Alice reminds him as she guides him.
Since their concert, which received the highest reviews in their band's history, the revenue that came to the band was a staggering amount and it made sense to divide them up amongst everyone. Everyone decided to buy and build their own home elsewhere within the city but would still come by the old apartment to work on the remaining music that they hadn't played. Drew and Alice, being together and all, used their combined money and bought a very nice house on the outskirts of the main city, away from the noise and crazy lights that always shown through the windows. As an added bonus, the Top dogs in the Tower gave them some leave as a reward for their performance as they were there to see it. Now, they had all this time to themselves, and Alice was acting giddy a week after the concert.
"You know I'm not good with surprises, Alice. Just tell me what it is, please," Drew pleads.
"Come on, don't be such a scaredy-cat. We're almost there," Alice guides him into the kitchen and stops him suddenly, "Okay, you can take it off now," she tells him.
Drew takes off the blindfold and blinks his eyes in order to adjust to sudden light exposure. He looks down in front of him to a neatly brown decorated box with a shiny caramel colored bow tie on the top. Drew frowns in confusion, "It's not my birthday, Alice," he tells her.
"I know, it's not an early birthday but this is something else. Something special to both us," she explains to him.
Drew looks at her with a puzzled look, "So it's a gift for both of us?" he asks.
"I guess you could say that, yes. Open it," she nudges him.
Drew shrugs and picks up the box, finding it remarkably light but he hears something bouncing around there as if there many objects within. He takes off the bow tie and lacing and holds the top down, unsure if whether she was trying to prank him or not. He looks at her once again to see her cute eagerness for him to open it. He gives an uncertain smile and opens the box. Drew closes his eyes partially to see what might come out and get him in the face but is surprised to see many pink balloons fly up out of the box with pink streamers attached to them.
"Wait, what?" he stares at the balloons in confusion as they rise and float to the ceiling. He looks at Alice in confusion, "What does this mean?" he asks.
Alice chuckles nervously and she steps a bit closer to Drew, "Remember back a few weeks ago when we had our first time together in New York?" she asks.
"Yes?" Drew says with nervousness in his voice.
"Well, it seems what we did had a special outcome in the end…" she holds his hand, bringing it up to her face and kisses it, then brings it down and places the palm over her womb, "For me," she finishes.
Drew's breathing becomes unsteady as he takes in this new information. He starts breathing hard as the gravity of her words sink down and stick to his mind. His mouth opens then closes to say something but his mind cannot form the words. Emotions clash within him as they struggle for dominance; Excitement, joy, fear, disbelief, etc. Finally, he calms down enough so his jaws stop quivering and he chooses his words carefully, "S-so you mean you're…" he trails off, hoping he isn't miss-interpreting her.
Alice clutches his hand in both of hers and looks up at him with her bright blue eyes, "Yes, Drew… I'm Pregnant."
Drew nearly collapses on the ground out of lack of oxygen but catches himself on the wall before he falls. He places a hand on his forehead, in utter disbelief of what he just heard but gets up again and faces Alice as she helps him up, "Y-you're serious?" he asks.
Alice hesitantly nods slowly; her mind is racing with scenarios that she would hope she doesn't have to face. But she had hopes that Drew's love would not go out on her now, "Yes, yes I am. We are having a child. A little girl," she tells him.
Drew looks at her with still with astonished eyes. Alice prepares for his rejection but is taken by complete surprise as Drew takes her into his arms and lifts her up, kissing her plump lips with an incredible passion that she had not felt from him before. She sinks into the kiss and cups his face in her hands. After a few moments, Drew separates and lowers her down, "I… have no words for this. How is this possible?" Drew asks excitedly.
"A week after the concert I went to the doctor to scope something out for me. After what we did together, I was curious if my body was capable of reproduction…" she trails off and rubs her belly caringly, "Turns out I did and our first time was a home run. I was pregnant. The Doctor told me that since I was an EXO I will most likely give birth to an EXO baby…" she trails off again with some sadness to her eyes as she looks away from him, "I'm sorry I couldn't bear you a Human child," she apologizes sorrowfully.
Drew smiles reassuringly and cups her cheek, gently bringing her face to look at him, "Human, Awoken, EXO, I don't care what it is, as long as it's our own then I'm happy," he kisses her softly on the lips, "And so will you. Our little Light," he tells her with a warm smile.
Alice smiles and kisses him back with a rivaled passion, "Our little light," she wraps her arms around his neck and pulls him closer to intensify the kiss, her love for him showing more than ever as she hugs him tightly. Since the day she first met him, she had always wanted him to be hers but her shyness always hid her from his view and attention. But then came something that caught her off guard; he had feelings for her too and from then on they had come close and experienced each other in ways they had both dreamed of doing. He had not rejected her and it was the best thing he could have done for her. Second to him giving her the chance to give birth to a new life of both their making.
Within Alice, the makings of life were unfolding as the spark of a new light was made.
"A Light for you and me."
OH YEAH!
Finally done with this and I have to say that this was a fun one to write. Yes, I know it's a short story but that's the point. I'm not gonna write a full-blown story on this. If you want more Destiny fics then PM me. Or I'll just write them as I please.
The idea for this pairing was a random pick out of a few others. I literally crafted a spin wheel and labeled some sections with a couple from different Universes, this story being one of them. I took the wheel and paper towel holder and placed the rod inside the hole (no sexual pun intended) then spun the wheel. Whichever idea landed on me, I would write regardless. I was up to write whichever one of them landed on me and it was this one; an EXO female and a Human male set in the Destiny Universe. The ending for this story is a bit controversial, I know, but if you look at the Fandom page on Exo's it says that they are so advanced that nothing short of a Ghost can understand their inner functions. So as my own special lore, I decided to have this ending. Just for the hell of it.
Again, I'm sorry for the lack of updates in the other stories if you are reading this. I've been wrapped up in other issues going on in my life and I've been finding it hard to find the time to write at least an extra paragraph. So, I'll be taking this time to officially take a break from everything and get my bearings before I go back and write again.
In any case, I hope you have a wonderful Merry Christmas or if you don't celebrate that then Happy Hanukkah or if you don't celebrate any of them then at least have a Happy New Years.
Thank you for your support on my stories and as always…
Have a nice day ;)
