Synopsis: Future AU. Jonathan and Susan are now an elderly couple and Susan has yet to tell him about her side of the family being made of dragons.

Deathbed Confessions

"Susan." Jonathan calls his wife.

"Yes, Jonathan?" Susan asks.

"Susan, I feel like I don't have too much time left." Jonathan tells. "I think it's time we tell all we always wanted to so we'll no longer bear the burden of secrecy."

"You're right, Jonathan." Susan replies. "There's a thing I've always wanted to tell. I came from a family of dragons."

"Yeah, I always suspected that 'dream' back in 1986 wasn't just a dream." Jonathan comments.

"Then why didn't you say anything?" Susan asks.

"Because I would be either wrong and crazy or right and alter history." Jonathan explains. "I'm a fan of 'Back to the Future'."

"Sorry, Jonathan." Susan replies. "I meant to tell but I was always afraid."

"It's okay." Jonathan explains. "I've suspected from those bathroom runs. If Jake and Haley didn't want me to find out they didn't use their powers to beat each other to the bathroom every morning."

"And what about our daughter-in-law?" Jonathan asks. "Is Rose also a dragon?"

"No." Susan sheepshily answers. "She's a former dragon slayer who changed her ways when she found out about our son."

"Well, as long as she makes our Jakers happy." Jonathan comments.

"I agree." Susan replies. "And you, Jonathan? Is there any secret you'd like to tell?"
