Chapter 29: Finale, Part 1
"Dad. Magic died out when the meltdowns struck, do you really think there are still people who practice it?" Léon helps me up off the floor, we both wobble, then turn to Dad.
"I've told you the story of.... how I almost died. Right?" He motioned to his mechanical arm and leg, and the blue glasses that zipped across his face.
"Yeah. Why?" I was confused, he had told me that he barely got out alive, and a mysterious stranger saved him, and gave him his tech.
"When Adam left, he asked me if I believed in angels, I thought he was joking. But.... now that this has happened, I don't think he was....." He trailed off, suddenly gripping Léon on the arm.
"When and Where did you get possessed?" Léon looked taken aback, but I could see him racking his brain for an answer.
"I started feeling off when I got back home, I felt..... empty.......kinda........and resentful." Dad released him. He sighed and shook his head.
"I'm getting too old for this shit." He stood and thought for a moment while we went to go check on the kids.
They were playing outside with Luna, and they came and gave us a hug when they saw us.
"We're glad you're okay Dad!" Luis chirped in Léon's ear, and he grinned hugely.
"Yeah, I'm fine, just needed to get rid of some inner demons." I hit him in the side, and knocked the wind out of him.
"What? It's been long enough we can joke about it." He laughed, and a shook my head.
"It just happened!" I replied, and Dad came walking through the door. Mom holding hand and trying to calm him down.
"We have to wait, they can't go until the kid is born. That's a lot of stress they don't need....." They were whispering furiously, but I could still here what they were saying.
"I know, but I don't like the sound of this, I've fought Deathclaws and ghouls and even my own mind. But never something like this." He caressed Mom's cheek, and kissed her forehead before walking up to us.
"Ái, when's your due date?" He asked, like I knew he would, and I gripped Léon's hand as I rolled my eyes.
"In a month, give or take." It seems to set his mind at ease little, and Léon yawns, it was getting late, and we had a long day.
"Well, I should let you two get to bed. You both had a day and a half." He started to walk away, but I wrapped him in a hug, I don't know why I did it, I just had a feeling if I didn't, something horrible was going to happen.
"Thanks Dad." He returned the hug, and I held his nonmetal hand brush my hair.
"Heh. Your welcome..... Baby Bones." I snort at my childhood nickname and push him off my, hitting him playfully in the side.
"Well your about to be Grandbones, so tibia honest, I don't think you can call me that anymore." I groan at my own pun, and I see Dad's smile turn into an annoyed smirk.
"Nah, You'll always me my Baby Bones, no matter how old you get."
"Yeah..... Good night Dad!" I replied as I took Léons hand and lead him up the the bedroom, Dad was watching us from the foyer.
"Goodnight...... baby girl."
Upstairs, Léon was unusually affectionate, He placed his hands on my stomach, and nibbled on my ear, I giggled and kissed his neck, it was a rare moment of bliss between us.
"I'm sorry." He says again, and I sigh, stopping my assault on his neck.
"For what, ruining the mood? 'Cause that's what you did." I knew that wasn't what her was talking about, but I really didn't want to think about what just happened.
"No, though sorry about that too, I'm sorry about all of this. None of this would have happened if you had never met me...." I look at the floor, so does he, I lay my smaller hand on his, he looks up.
"You are exactly right...." He looks dejected, but I smile and turn his face back towards me.
"I would have never met the greatest guy, I would have never moved out, I would have never met Luis and Comet. And I wouldn't be here, talking to the father of my kids." He smiles weakly, and I feel him squeeze my hand.
"I guess your right. And I would be stuck with my abusive parents. I would still be living in misery."'I nodded, A kissed him gently, letting him run his hands down my arms.
I pulled away, which is a shame because I was enjoying it. "See? This Journey wouldn't have even happened if I hadn't met you. And I wouldn't trade that for the world."
He chuckled and our noses touched, him smiling and running his hands over where he knew the baby was.
"True..... I don't regret a thing.....except maybe getting possessed, that wasn't fun." I rolled my eyes and tried to kiss him, but suddenly I felt water run down.... everywhere.
"What? Why are you-" His eyes grew big and wide, and mine did the same.
"M-My water just broke."
"A/N Yes, I'm ending this book, I don't feel as invested in it as I should be, so there will be a three part ending, the last chapter being as long as it needs to be to finish it. To everyone who loved and supported this book. Sorry it couldn't last longer.
And no, there will not be a sequel to this. It's gone on long enough and good things must come to an end.
Anyone who still wants to support my writing go check out my other books, I by no means am going to stop writing, it's just.... let's be honest. This book has overstayed it's time.
So, I'll see you all in Part 2 and 3.
Buh~Bye.
