Epilogue 2 Faith's POV

I landed at the front door. Scared. I wanted Max to answer it and hug me and kiss me but I know that was probably the last thing that would happen. I hugged Jay close to me and rang the doorbell.

Instead of me meeting brown eyes with dirty blonde hair I was met with blue eyes and curly blonde hair.

"Hi Angel" I said. He was eleven now I think. He didn't seem surprised. He probably heard me coming from a mile away.

"Hi Faith" he said smiling. "Come in" he said. I slowly walked in prepared for the worse. "Max!" he shouted. "Its for you!"

"Angel who's at the door-" Max stopped mid sentence when he saw me.

"Hi Max" I said.

Jay turned in my arms and met Max's eyes. "Daddy!" Jay shouted. He jumped out of my arms and ran to Max. Without hesitation Max scooped him into his arms. He stroked Jays hair and kissed his head. "Jay" He whispered. "I missed you"

I almost felt jealous I wanted him to hug me kiss me tell me how much he missed me. This is what I get though for being selfish.

Max looked to me and I could see tears streaming in his eyes.

"Jay" He said looking down at him. "I missed you so much. I haven't seen you since you were a baby, but your back now and I love you so much"

"I know daddy mama told me so" Jay said.

Max's eyes met mine with so much less emotion than he had when he looked at Jay.

"Jay?" Max said.

"yes daddy?" Jay said.

"Me and your mommy need to talk" He told him.

"Can I come?" Jay asked.

"No but you can meet your aunts and uncles." Max said. He called the flock in and introduced Jay to them. Once Jay had started talking to them Max took my hand and lead me to another room.

I'm guessing it was his room. When he led me in he shut and locked the door behind him. I stood there waiting for him to say something but he didn't he moved in front of me but kept his back turned to me. He looked bigger. More masculine. He's grown into a man.

"If you thought you could just bring him back and everything would be exactly the same you're dead wrong." He said still not looking at me.

"I didn't bring him back for us I brought him back for him. He needs his father" I said.

"He always needed me. He needed both of us." Max's hand moved to his face and he rubbed it in irritation.

"Max you need to understand why I took him-" he cut me off.

"I did understand" he said turning around. His eyes were red but he wasn't crying. If he didn't look so broken I would have said his face looked older. "I do understand." He said. A sob broke through his chest and it broke my heart.I didn't know if it was what he needed but by instinct I wrapped my arms around his waist. He squeezed me holding me closer to him.

"I understand why you had to leave, I really do" He cried. "But it doesn't mean I was okay with it." He paused barring his face in my hair. I was still shorted than him. That didn't change. "I was so heart broken Faith. I was depressed. I couldn't even lead the flock for a while because I didn't have you: my right wing women, my second in command, the love of my life." He cried.

And I listen. I listen to him cry for seconds? Minutes? Maybe hours.

Then when he was finished pouring out everything he felt over the past four years, I kissed him. I kissed him because I had not kissed him in four years and I needed him. I needed him not only for Jay but for me. I needed him in more ways then one.

Max's POV

"I hate you for it" I told her when we pulled apart. "I've hated you for it every year you both weren't here with me. That's why I went after the schools I think. I knew you would come back if they were gone." I finished. I pull her head away from my chest and made her look me in the eye.

"Say something" I said. Anything

She looked deep into my eyes seeing right through my soul like she always had.

"Hate is the closest emotion to love" she said. I smashed my lips back to hers moving my hands to her hips. I tugged her figure closer to my bed until I fell back with her on top of me. I flipped her over and her head landed on the pillow. Her long black hair exploded against the white surface.

"I've missed you so much." She said as her hands traveled up my shirt and rested on my back in between my wings.

"The feeling is mutual" I whispered in her ear. I kissed her neck and moved my hands up her shirt.

She slipped it off with ease. Then moved to take mine off. She ran her hand up my stomach across my shoulder and down my back. I haven't touched her in years. She continued to rub her hands over me getting reacquainted with my body as I did with her.

I slid my hand up her back running my fingers up and down her silky black feathers. I fingered her bra clip before undoing it. I threw it over my shoulder not caring where it ended up.

Her breast had gotten bigger. But pregnancy had very much changed the landscape that is her body. Though her breast were bigger they weren't as perky as they were before. She was still as skinny as ever but stretch marks wrapped around her stomach blending in with her scars from past fights with Aria.

Aria.

She had died about a week after Faith left. When Jess buried her in the woods I went and watched from a tree. I'd only know about it because Angel told me he heard her thoughts.

I put the thought out of my mind. Faith was here. After all these years I finally had her back and I was going to celebrate.

I hadn't even noticed we were both fully naked now and she was waiting for me.

I reached over her to my dresser drawer to grab a condom. No I was not having sex with other girls the condom isn't even mine. But Eddy won't mind beside I think we both know that it's best not to make the same mistake twice.

Faith glared at the condom. She lightly pushed my chest back so she could sit up.

"Why do you have that?" She asked. Her voice was calm but her eye were angry and almost...hurt.

"I think we both know that we need to talk about it before risking having another baby." I told her logically.

She let out a frustrated scoff. "Not that Max. I mean why did you already have one when I wasn't here?" She asked.

"Faith there not mine Eddy hides his here so dad won't find them so he and Izzy can-"

"Ok I believe you" She said.

I let out a laugh.

"So you never...with Diane?" She asked looking down.

"No" I said bewildered. "I haven't even seen her since that dinner. "

Faith nodded. I cupped her cheek. "I was never with anyone else but you." I told her "What about you were you with anyone?" I asked her and instantly wanted to take it back. I didn't want to know about the guys she's been with. Guys had always thrown themselves at her. She was so beautiful of course she dated other guys.

"No" she said surprising me. " I had Jay to think about plus I was always hoping you'd defeat the school so we could be together again." She finished sliding her hands over my shoulders.

I smile glad she waited for me like I waited for her. I smashed my lips down to her then I made love to her for the first time in four years.


Once we were dressed and cleaned up we walked out back to the living room.

Jay jumped off Nash's lap and ran straight to Faith.

"Mama I like it here can we stay here forever with daddy and the flock?" He asked looking up at her with big brown eyes just like mine.

Faith looked up at me as if to ask permission.

I smiled "I would love it if you both stayed here" I said.

Faiths mouth curled into a smile "Well I guess we'll have to stay then."

Jay cheered finally my family was whole again.


The End!

I probably won't make any stories anytime soon but i'm thinking of doing an Izzy and Eddy one shot as like an extra chapter so tell me what you think. REVIEW!
