Ten years later...

Ira's POV

I was so anxious! I felt like everything in my body... was gonna explode! I couldn't stay calm. I panicked as I turned my head to the door every 5 seconds.

Then a women came out from the door that I was pacing in front of.

"You can come in now" she said, wearing a bright smile.

I felt stiff. I couldn't move. I was so nervous.

O my god.. what's going to happen now!?!

"U-Um... ok..." I said, slowly following her in the room.

It was pretty bright when I first entered the room. But nothing was brighter than the woman lying on the bed...her arms folded,..

I turned to her. Tears overflowing from my eyes as I faced her.

There stood before me... the most wonderful, beautiful person on earth... the love of my life... not to mention.... my beloved wife...

"Ira!" Rikka exclaimed.

"Now now, don't push yourself dear!" said her mother, "you're very weak from the procedure"

"I'm sorry mom. Thanks for helping me!" said Rikka.

Then she faced me.

"Ira... it happened!" She said

"You mean...."

Then she unfolded her arms, to reveal....a beautiful baby girl.

I cried even harder when I caught a glimpse of the child.

"Ira! You're a father!" Rikka cried.

"And.. and.. you're a mother!" I said, crying my heart out.

"Congratulations you both!" said the women.

I was so happy... the girl was small and gorgeous like her mother. And she wore a bright smile.

"She has your eyes Ira!" said Rikka's mother.

Then the baby frowned.

"Not to mention your stubborn personality" giggled Rikka.

"Hey!" I said.

The baby smiled again, and laughed.

"But she has your positive attitude" I pointed out.

Then we heard a knock on the door.

"RIKKA!! DID IT HAPPEN!?" cried a voice

"Oh Rikka-Chan! Are you feeling alright?" asked another.

"Stay strong!!!" said two voices.

"You can do it!" said one more.

"Guys guys! Come in!" Said Rikka.

The door flung open to reveal the Cures and Regina.

"IM AN AUNT!!!" Cried Mana.

"Mana! Shh!!" hissed Makoto.

"Oh my! The child is wonderful!" Said Alice.

"Aww!!!" said Regina and Aguri.

Rikka and I beamed.

The time passed and we all sat on the chairs around Rikka's bed.

"Aww!! She's so sweet!!" Mana gushed.

"I have to agree!" Said Makoto.

"What are you going to name her?" asked Alice.

Rikka and I faced one another. As if we were reading one another's mind.

"You should tell her" I said.

"We were going to name her Hope"

"That's a wonderful name!" said Aguri.

"Hope... I love it!!!" exclaimed Mana.

"That's a beautiful name, Rikka" said her mother.

"Is there a reason why you named her Hope?" asked Makoto.

"Well, we decided to name her Hope because it was hope that brought Rikka and I together" I explained.

"THATS SUCH AN AWESOME MEANING!!!!" yelled Mana.

"MANA!! SHH!!!" Makoto hissed, again

Mana blushed with embarrassment.

"Sorry!" She whispered.

Rikka and Alice let out a small laugh.

I turned to my newborn daughter and gave her a smile. She beamed back.

I thought that I could just smile forever with my new family around me. Not to mention the Cures.

It was hard thinking that my enemies are actually now my closest friends. I smiled at that thought.

"So Ira, how's it like?" asked Regina.

"Huh? What do you mean?" I asked.

"I mean that how's it like being a father and husband"

"Well, I thought it was pretty strange at first but now I think it was the best for me!"

"If it hadn't been for Rikka, I would've been stuck in the darkness forever"

"Ira.." said Rikka.

Hope started to giggle and wave her hands. Rikka and I beamed at our angel. Along with the rest of the Cures.

Few years later...

Third Person POV

"Makoto-onéechan is really good at singing!" exclaimed Hope.

"I have to agree! That concert was good!" said Ira.

"That's Makoto for ya! She's got a lot of talent!" said Rikka.

"Mommy? Have you ever sang before?" asked Hope.

"M-Me..?" asked Rikka

"As a mater of fact, Your mother did sing!" said Ira with a smirk.

"Ira!!"

"Really Daddy? Have you sang before?!" asked Hope, eagerly.

"I-I..."

"Oh yes, honey! Your father has sung before!"

"R-Rikka..!"

"Mommy! Daddy! Can you sing for me?"

Rikka and Ira looked confused their child.

"Well, how about we sing the song when we get home" said Ira.

"Aww! Why not noooow!!" whined Hope.

"You'll get to hear the song your father and I sang when we were teens!" added Rikka.

"Wow! Really!? That must've been really long ago!" said Hope.

Rikka and Ira beamed.

Hope let out a small giggle.

"Mommy? How did you and Daddy meet?" asked Hope.

Rikka and Ira stared at each other. Then they burst into laughter.

"What's so funny?" asked Hope.

"Well my dear, that story is quite an interesting one! Don't you think Ira?"

"Yep! It's one of the best!!" Ira replied.

"Oh wow!!! I wanna hear all about it!!!" said Hope.

"Well, in order to hear it, you're gonna have to believe every word we say, ok?"

"Ok!!!" beamed Hope.

Hope grabbed her mother and fathers hands as they walked home.

Little did they know that two people were secretly watching them...

"I see that Ira is doing well.... well, I still can't believe he's a father an all... but I'm happy for him..." said Mamon.

"Whatever.." said Bel, as he teleported away.

Mamon teleported with him but before she could do that Ira turned in her direction and gave Mamon a smile. Mamon smiles back and teleported away.

At home...

Third Person POV

Ira and Rikka were alone in there bedroom. The sat on the bed and faced one another.

"It's kinda hard to believe thAt we were mortal enemies... and now... look at us!" said Ira.

"I know, it is pretty hard to believe but... I can't help but believe that we were meant to be with one another" said Rikka.

Then Ira kissed her. Then they broke free of one another.

"I feel the same way, love" said Ira.

"Ira... I love you!" cried Rikka.

"I love you too... darling" said Ira.

"AWWWWW!!! SO CUUUUUTE!!!" cried someone beyond the bedroom door.

"MANA!!! SHHH!!!" hissed another.

"Oh wow! Mommy and Daddy are being kissy!!" said a little voice.

"Well it cant be helped!" said another.

"They really are crazy for one another!" said another.

Blushes spread across Ira and Rikka's faces.

"Y-You guys!!?! You've been here this entire time?!?!" cried Rikka.

The door open to reveal the Cures, Regina and Hope, all giggling amongst themselves.

Then a figure teleported in the room.

"I didn't know that you were capable of that Ira!" teased Mamon.

"MAMON!!?! WHAT THE HELL!??"

"I've come in peace!" began Mamon, "I guess I finally realized that there's no point in stopping Ira. He really is a brat!"

"Glad to hear it!" said Mana.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY!!??"

Everyone burst into laughter. Hope rushed up to her dad's side.

"It's ok Daddy! I still love you!" said Hope.

"AWW!!!" cried the Cures and Regina.

"I love you too, Hope" said Ira, picking his daughter up.

"She's not the only one who loves you, Ira" said Rikka.

Everyone burst into laughter once more.

And Ira and Rikka sealed the moment with a kiss.

Love is really is powerful...
Ira thought.
