Epilogue: Happy and Together

Syd watched as Tomas and Lina spoke quietly. Weddings here were a bit different than on Earth. They did exchange a kind of vow, however this vow magically bound them. They carefully came up with their vows together and then when spoken aloud at the ceremony it created a binding. Syd was actually quite impressed when she had heard that there were no divorces on here. People took it very seriously and so when they spoke the vows they knew they were it in forever.

She sighed and reached over and slipped her hand into Bridge's. She looked up at him just as he looked at her and grinned. Bridge was able to recover about a week afterwards. When they were dealing with the bullet some complications had arisen which is why Bridge had been out for as long as he was. Dr. Felix was able to fix him though and now Bridge was doing fine. He hadn't gotten back to training completely just yet, but he was making progress.

She of course had returned to seeing the counselor. She still had horrible nightmares and she didn't like to think about them, but now that they knew, Z, Bridge and Sky helped her out, and her parents spoke with her. Sometimes it was a bit exhausting to continue on that topic, but she was happy to have at least everyone still care.

Tomas and Lina both closed their eyes as a shimmering blue light surrounded them. They were encased in the light for a few minutes and then the light seemed to dissolve into their skins. There was a quiet murmur in the crowd as the two then proceeded out the door in front of them. There they were to share the kiss sealing it. Here they did not think it fitting to share something as special as that with everyone, it was only for the partners to have.

She looked over at Bridge, "That was just beautiful."

He smiled, "I figured you would say that. It was definitely different, but quite interesting. So is there the…reception?"

"The after gathering is…I'm trying to remember where Tomas told me it would be."

"Syd?"

Syd turned to one of Tomas' friends, "Hey Tiy, that was quite beautiful."

He smiled, "Thank you. Not many people outside of here are allowed to enter for a ceremony."

"We're honored."

He nodded, "Tomas wished for me to show you and your companions to the after gathering. Please follow me."

"Thank you."

Syd looked past Bridge towards Z and Sky who were in their own conversation, "Come on."

The four got up and followed Tiy to an open area outside the building. Even though it was open, there were lights surrounding it which seemed to cause somewhat of a cover. "Please feel free to partake of the food or drink. Tomas and Lina will appear briefly in a short period of time."

She nodded and turned back to Bridge, Z and Sky, "This was amazing."

Z nodded, "It was different."

"I'm going to get something to eat, do you want something?" Bridge asked looking at Syd and then the other three.

"I'm good." Sky stated.

The brunette again nodded, "Me too. Thanks."

"I'll have something to drink."

The man clad in blue nodded and headed over to the table. Syd watched as couples began to dance. She looked over at Z and pointedly looked at the floor and then Sky. Her friend rolled her eyes and shook her head. Syd glanced at Sky hoping he was watching, but instead he was watching Bridge. He had still been worried about his safety, it wasn't like they all weren't, but Sky still thought it was his fault that Bridge got taken. Plus Sky saw Bridge as a younger brother, he didn't like the idea that Bridge could have died.

This was another topic that was brought up in her sessions with her counselor, Bridge and her Mother's abduction. It had been hard but she had repressed all thoughts and feelings during the time that they were gone. It was when things had settled down and she wasn't holding up her guard when it hit her. Her counselor was working on this as well; she said it wasn't good to repress things, no matter the circumstance.

Bringing herself back to the present she smiled as Bridge handed her drink to her, "Thanks Bridge."

He smiled, "You're welcome." He had taken a couple of bites from something off his plate and then looked back where the people were dancing. He looked back at Syd, "Would you care to dance?"

Smiling Syd took his offered hand and followed him onto the dance floor. "This really was a beautiful ceremony."

"It was. And it wasn't one of those ceremonies where it was overly done or randomly placed but it was just right you know?"

Nodding she looked up, "It wasn't. It was just right. That doesn't mean that when I get married I'm not going to have my dream wedding."

He laughed, "Of course not. I wouldn't expect anything else. The most perfect setting in the whole world…although I still don't know how you can determine that. I mean when you think about it, so many different things can be perfect in their own way. Besides what if one spot is perfect and you plan it for there and then by the time the big day comes up it's completely not perfect? How can you really define perfect anyways? Is there a clear cut answer, although—"

"Bridge." Syd stated and watched as his eyes shifted back to hers, "I get it." She thought for a minute, "It's perfect because that's where I want my wedding at."

"I see. That makes sense."

She smiled, "Good." Then he looked back at the crowd and grinned, "What?"

He smiled down at her, "You'll like this a lot."

Turning around so that she was now facing the way he had been she saw Z and Sky dancing a little ways off. Syd smiled, Z looked so happy and Sky, he looked like he definitely wanted to be there, "They're dancing. It's only a matter of time now."

"For what?"

"Dating and then getting married! I can't wait!"

"Isn't that a little too soon?"

Syd looked back at the other couple, "Nothing is too soon."

"What about you…and me?"

Syd looked back at her boyfriends' eyes, "Bridge…I didn't mean. You know I love you."

"I love you too."

Smiling the two leaned in and shared a gentle kiss. After moving slightly away the two opened their eyes, "I'm still focused on us."

"I know."

"And the future that we do have together."

A bigger grin broke out on his face as Syd felt her own lips stretch into one. They didn't need to say anything else about it. Syd leaned her head on Bridge's shoulder, regardless of all that had happened recently things were now just perfect. Two of her best friends were getting together, even though they might have a long road ahead of them, Jack and Ally were still happy and together, and she was in the arms of the man she loved who loved her back. She was happy, and no matter what came her way she knew that much.
