AN: Okay so now it's changed to 60 chapters and at the 60th one, it will end right before James gets cut in half. After that, I will publish two stories, one called YAABILY Canon Ending and YAABILY Fix-It Ending simply because it will make it easier to read. Also, each chapter for those will be published at the same time which means they will take a longer amount of time to publish but that way if someone only wants to read one, they don't have to wait longer than someone else.

Also, as this fic became way longer than intended, I am soon going back to school so updates will be less often again. However, I will obviously continue this and hope you enjoy it like always. :)


Alastair raised an eyebrow at James as the other did a little shimmy of excitement. "It's only the end of her Secondary Education."

"I know but the moment is finally here. She did it," James said happily. "And now the world is completely opened to her! I mean, I'd love it if she stayed here but she's such a good student, she could go anywhere. Even a different country if she really wanted to!"

"She certainly could," Alastair said approvingly as he concentrated on the street in front of him. They were driving to a family dinner as way of a little celebration for Roxy due to her graduating.

"Oh, what about Kingsman!? I think she'd be a perfect candidate for the part," James said earnestly.

"Perhaps," murmured Alastair. The idea had never come to his mind before and as he thought about it, he honestly couldn't lie. She'd do well there. "Still, there aren't any openings for agents at the moment and I'm not completely positive how I feel about my little sister getting into danger like that."

"Well she's all grown up now. If she wants to run off and fight the world, you can't really stop her," reminded James, "though it would be freaking awesome to see her in Kingsman. I can totally see her hitting it off with Harry and though I'm sure she'd figure out ways to annoy Merlin, I'm sure she'd be a little more forgiving than Harry."

"That is definitely true," Alastair replied as he finally stopped at the family estate.

For once, Kenton and Nnenna were able to make it and it was a warm gathering as Roxy told stories of her last few days, exams, and possible choices afterwards. They talked about other subjects though as she asked, "So how is the cat?"

"Manageable," Alastair muttered.

"He's just pissed that I caught him voluntarily petting 'Sut," James said with a chuckle. "Don't lie. I know she's grown on you."

"Yes, like a wart. Now, Roxy, what do you have planned for college?" asked Alastair as James simply rolled his eyes fondly.

"Not really sure, which I know sounds weird for me. I usually have most things planned out. But I'm honestly thinking of traveling the world first," she replied.

Though not necessarily approving, Alastair nodded at that, mulling it over in his head as Kenton leaned forward and asked excitedly, "Where would you want to go first?"

"I'd like to go back to Nigeria, especially now that I'm older," she said, glancing over at Nnenna. "I got to see so little while there but I did see was amazing."

"Perhaps we can have a just us girls trip," Nnenna responded with a soft smile. "Where would you go if you chose a place you'd never been?"

"Somewhere far," she said excitedly. "Mongolia…Chile, I'm not sure. What about you James? Where would you go?"

James racked his brain for a country he hadn't been to. "Uh…Japan…maybe? What about you Kenton?"

"I've done enough traveling. Once I retire I'm not moving."

"Well I'm not getting your food for you so that might be a problem," joked Nnenna. "But oh it is good to talk again. It's been to long since a nice sit down with everyone. So, you two finally moved in together, right?"

"Yep," James said happily. "Now I get to annoy this thing every chance I get."

"It's bliss," muttered Alastair sarcastically as the others laughed in response. "I get back at him for waking his ass up early in the morning."

"I swear, when work is not a factor there is no reason why one should wake up at the crack of dawn," James responded.

Roxy nodded. "I'm going to have to agree with you on that."

"I swear, you both agree on everything just to annoy me. And I will never forgive you for helping him pick out that hairless beast," Alastair replied.

"Ah, you know you love her," Roxy said with a grin.

On and on they went, until they finally broke apart a bit, Kenton stealing Alastair away to talk to him while the father went to go and take a rest. Nnenna succeeded in commandeering James and it just so happened that Roxy was by when she asked, "So, any farther thoughts on marriage?"

"Wait, you're thinking of marriage?" Roxy said excitedly as she quickly hurried to where James stood with hopeful and curious eyes.

James quickly shook his head and replied, "What? No! I mean…maybe. She's just talking about a conversation we had at her wedding."

"And it was about marriage," Roxy responded, "which is great except for the fact that then I really couldn't call you Uncle James any more. Brother would certainly have to do."

"Well I'm glad you've got that worked out but I sure as hell don't. I haven't even mentioned this idea to Alastair. And as I've said before, it's not even legal!"

"Just do a ceremony then," Roxy said. "Unless of course you don't want to get married which is totally fine. It's not for everyone. But just saying, it would be totally awesome to call you my brother-in-law."

"And I think it would be awesome to call you my sister-in-law but I just…I don't know," James responded.

Nnenna gave a small frown as she looked James over. "Are you alright?"

"I…I don't know. I just don't know what…I don't know what Alastair would think," James replied.

Confused and intrigued, Roxy moved over to a sitting area and Nnenna and James followed. Curious, Roxy commented, "I'm sure Alastair would be fine with it, would probably love that you asked him though in his usual way he'd probably throw it off like it was no big deal. But no, he'd probably love it."

"And I know! But I…maybe it's the fact that I never thought this would happen to me. But I…it's not cold feet. It's not that. I suppose it's just that I never envisioned myself falling for somebody so completely that I would want to spend the rest of my life with them. It's…scary," James finally got out. "Which is weird in and of itself."

"The unknown is always scary, but it is those that advance anyways that ever get anywhere. Marriage is terrifying in its own way, but as long as both parties agree to it, it can be a wonderful thing."

"True, but that doesn't make it any less terrifying. I think I'll just have to really think about it. Knowing me, I'll probably ask at some random point, completely unplanned, or way over the top in a way that I know would make Alastair groan in fondness."

"Well whatever you choose," said Nnenna, "do it soon. As my mother liked to say, don't ever believe that time is on your side. Do what you want and what makes you happy."

"I'll keep that in mind," murmured James as he particularly thought of the danger of his job. "I suppose only time will tell."
