EPILOGUE

Amani walked through a path filed with pink flowers holding that hand of the man she loved for so many years. "Mitsu."

"Hai?"

"Thank you."

"Hmn?" Kunimitsu stopped from walking and turned to face Amani.

"Thank you for keeping your promise." Amani smiled then tiptoed to brush Kunimitsu's hair from his face.

"For what?" The confused tennis player asked his girlfriend.

"For keeping your promise to spend winter with me, keep me warm, so we can walk a path of Sakura's in Spring." Amani began to walk again pulling on Kunimitsu's hands.

It's been five years since they first embraced each other. They've happily stayed together even when they were oceans apart. That was until, Kunimitsu graduated from University and decided to "hire" Amani as his personal Sports Therapist so she can come to Japan and be with him. She isn't actually working for him though; he just wanted to be with her.

"How are Syuusuke and Shuichiro?" Amani asked as they continued to relish the falling sakuras.

"Fuji? I think he and Hatsu-kun are doing well. Oishi is still scared to tell Sayuri-kun how he feels, but I think he'll get there." Kunimitsu let go of Amani's hands and wrapped his arms around her waist.

"I see. Well, I'm just happy for both of them." Amani smiled.

"Ami." Kunimitsu stopped as they arrived near a small temple near a lake with clear waters and sakuras floating everywhere.

"Hai?"

"There's one more promise I'd like to keep." Kunimitsu turned to face Amani, a smile plastered on his face.

"Another promise?" Amani wondered.

"Hai." Kunimitsu nodded and smiled, letting go of the girl in front of him and placing both his hands in his pants pocket.

"What promise?" Amani asked with a smile, not taking her eyes off Kunimitsu's.

"I promised to take you here in winter, so I can keep you warm. Then we can walk around in Spring, so you can see the sakura bloom. Right?" Kunimitsu took his right hand out of his pocket his cell phone in hand.

"Hai. Nande?" Amani still smiling and wondering.

Kunimitsu pressed a few buttons on his cell phone as if to dial a number, but not really talked to anyone.

"Mitsu?" Amani waiting for a reply.

Fireworks suddenly burst in the sky in shades of blue, pink, and white.

"Wow!" Amani amazed at the fireworks.

"Ami."

"Hai, Mitsu?" Amani turned her head back to Mitsu.

Kunimitsu pulled his left hand from his pocket; it was clasped in a fist.

"Mitsu, what's wrong?" Amani beginning to worry.

Kunimitsu suddenly knelt, "I promised you, I'd spend every spring time with you." he opened his left hand to show Amani a ring, "Will you marry me?"

Amani covered her mouth in shock, her eyes welling up. Just then, more fireworks came flying to the sky. A strong wind blew causing the sakuras to shower the couple.

"Hai." Amani replied in tears.

Kunimitsu stood up, placed the ring in his fiancé's ring finger and embraced her tightly. Together they watched the fireworks in Spring, as he brushed the sakuras that fell on her hair.

"The fireworks were Fuji's idea by the way." Kunimitsu whispered in Amani's ears.

"Then, I better thank Syuusuke." Amani whispered back before resting her head on Kunimitsu's chest.

I know, it was short, it's an epilogue guys, it should be short. =)

But seriously, thanks to everyone who read the story, especially those regular reviewers (you know who you are guys). It was so fun writing this fic, and I'm really sad that it's over. Hope I can write another like this, or something better. Oh and I finished it just in time for Tezuka's birthday on the 7th! Yay! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MITSU! =)

When Worlds Collide Trivia:

*The original inspiration for this story (Chapter one specifically) was the song Collide by Howey Day, everything else just fell into place after that.

*Ami's full name was patterned after the author's real name

*Rainan's full name was patterned after the author's sister's name

*Cathleah's full name was patterned after the author's best friend's name.

*Ami's University course is the author's Bachelor's Degree

*Ami and Mitsu first met in Spring, got reunited in Spring, got engaged in Spring.

*The mirror's reflection changes at 6PM in Ami's time and 7PM in Mitsu's time and changes back 12 hours after, because of the one hour time difference between their countries. There are approximately nine Asian Countries that has a one hour time difference from Japan. One of those countries is the author's country of birth.

*Ironically (And I did not do it on purpose), the longest Chapter of this Story is the chapter entitled "Your Name is Too Long" with 8,240 words.

Again, Minna, Hontouni, Arigato Gozaimasu!
