Redmoonfae: Well, seems that most of you would like an epilouge, so here it is!
Kyo: And for those who think I had anything to do with Tohru going away, just shut up!
Redmoonfae: He's right. Some people were confused about Kyo being in on Tohru being taken away. But alas, he was merely there to suffer, with Yuki. That's what I meant. Sorry for any confusion. :)
Kyo: Still! Why the hell would they think that I would get rid of Tohru? Are they idiots?
Redmoonfae: Kyo, shut up. -smacks Kyo- Enjoy!

Tohru awoke late in the night, and slowly climbed out of bed, being careful as not to awake her husband. She quietly opened the door and walked down the hall. She slowly slid open another door and walked inside.
She tip toed over to a cradle near the window and looked inside. She smiled fully at her new daughter, Akemi. She had father's hair and her mother's eyes. Her skin was as fine as silk, her face carved by angels. She gently touched the sleeping child's head as she sleapt. Tohru moved over to the window and made sure it was locked tight.
She pulled the curtain over the window and tied both ends so it wouldn't reopen. Even though it had been a year since Kazumi was killed, Tohru was still frightened of him. He would live forever in her heart. She glanced back at her daughter one last time before quietly going back to her own room. She slid the door open and crossed the room to the bed.
Tohru climbed in and got under the covers. She jumped slightly as she felt an arm rap around her waist and pull her close.
"Was it another nightmare?" asked her husband.
Tohru smiled gently. "I didn't mean to wake you. I can't believe it's been a whole year." she said happily, turning to face him.
She layed her head on his arm as a pillow as he kept one arm protectively around her waist.
"The dark frightens me at times, still." she admitted to her husband, burriying her face in his arm.
Her husband gently lifted her head up so she was looking at him. He gently kissed her lips, sending shivers down her spine.
"Would you like me to turn on the light?" he asked gently.
Tohru smiled and kissed his cheek.
She resettled herself comfortably on his arm, eyes fluttering closed.
"No. For you, Yuki, are my light."

-Sniffles- Even though it was very short, I hope you liked this final, epilouge chapter of Melting a Frozen Heart.
