Epilogue
"Happy Birthday to you, Happy birthday dear Delphine" Cosima whispered in ear, nibbling on the lobe. Placing kisses all over her flawless face, the blonde laughed awake with her girlfriend, kissing down her neck.
"Good morning birthday girl" Cosima beamed as she watched her open her eyes.
"Morning chéri" Delphine replied voice thick with sleep.
"Are you ready to get up?" Cosima hovered over body, kissing her once more.
"No, it is too cold" Delphine screwed up her face bringing the duvet right up to her chin.
"Well maybe you shouldn't sleep naked, it is December." Cosima said cheekily moving away from her.
"Well maybe someone should stop removing them from me" Delphine shouted causing Cosima to stop at the door way, her tongue behind her teeth as she grinned wickedly.
"You know pink fluffy pjs are my weakness" Cosima said full of mischief biting on her lip.
The blonde scoffed in laughter at her, she was never going to let that go.
"You are such a brat" Delphine rushed over to Cosima, arms wrapped around her neck, causing the petite girl to squeal in response.
Pinning her to the door way Delphine, she looked down to see the brunette was dressed in her ninja turtle short pyjamas. Her eyes flickering over Cosima's body, she licked her lips in anticipation but lips only hovered
"Nice pyjamas " she husked on her lips, body following down, bending down.
Cosima's breath heaved as she looked down at the blonde, head level with her sex that was starting to flutter.
She felt her breath blow up her shorts, giving her goose bumps on her skin. Her finger nails lightly trailing up her inner thigh, Cosima's eyes blinked rapidly, and head falling back against the wood.
Delphine smirked to herself, standing up. She kissed her softly.
"C'mon don't I have presents to open" Delphine said
"I hate it when you do that" Cosima said in fake annoyance at her ever teasing girlfriend.
"No you don't" Delphine replied back, her pyjama top now on her body. She started to descend the stairs when Cosima moved
"Hey, Delphine. Shouldn't you put on bottoms? I mean, I don't want these suburban folks getting an eye full. Cosima said concerned knowing how nosey their neighbours were.
"I will when I find them" Delphine replied which made Cosima snort.
They moved in together, Cosima's place was fine for staying over one or two nights a week but not for long term needs, and it was unfair to ask Krystal to move out. So Delphine bought a house for them both, three bed rooms and a huge back garden, for a swing set, maybe, one day. They never talked about marriage or children but the space was there if they needed it.
Delphine did eventually quit her job as the director of Dyad, she was constantly exhausted and she was unsatisfied, she had enough money in her savings account to live from. But she liked to be kept busy so in a surprise twist she now teaches science two days a week, watching small faces glow in wonderment is the reason why she loved science and now her job.
Cosima is still at Dyad working on classified science with the help of Scott, and on occasion she will ask Delphine for her input.
Delphine stopped at the bottom of the stairs picking up her sleeping shorts, slipping them on. The brunette squeezed her sides as moved up behind her.
The living room door had balloons and banners on the outside, Delphine opened the door to living to see balloons and banners around the room and sofa with a small bundle of gifts. Delphine kissed the top of Cosima's head.
Cosima tugged her arm into the room, pushing her down and passing her a gift at a time.
After Delphine finished opening her gifts, she thanked Cosima with loving hungry kiss.
Cosima moaned in protest as Delphine stopped; stretching her hand at the back of the couch she pulled a big gift bag out placing it on top of the brunette's knee
"Bon anniversaire, Ma chéri" Delphine kissed a shocked Cosima who kissed her back full of admiration.
"But why, it's my birthday. Shouldn't we be spending all day in bed?" Delphine groaned, pulling on a dress Cosima had laid out for her.
"Yeah, but it's also OUR anniversary so I have a say too. But I promise tomorrow we will spend every minute in bed." Cosima shouted up to the bed room.
She paced from the hallway to the living room waiting for Delphine to finally emerge; she received a text from Scott, telling her that everybody was here. The nerves whirled around her body, palms clammy with sweat.
"Is everything alright?" Delphine asked, blonde hair in a fancy bun, eyes winged in a similar style to Cosima's, lips painted pink. The white halter neck dress highlighted her body perfectly. It also showed off one of Cosima's favourite body parts, her back.
"Wow, more than alright" Cosima replied as Delphine walked down the stairs.
"You are so beautiful." Delphine embraced the smaller girl.
"I kinda just want undress you already" Cosima kissed, the blonde hummed in reply. Kissing Cosima softly, her tongue tracing her bottom lip as the brunette opened her mouth. Tongues stroking each other and wander hands exploring their bodies.
A loud honking of a car horn pulled their minds, back into the present.
Cosima bit down on Delphine's lip, tongue soothing it over before departing from her body
"That's our ride I guess." Cosima breathed
Delphine nodded, as Cosima clutched her hand taking her out to the taxi.
"Cosima don't you need to tell the taxi driver, where we are going?" Delphine asked as the taxi driver looked at the couple through the mirror.
"Nope! And I kinda need you to put this on" Cosima grinned handing her over an eye mask.
"Really?" Delphine asked unamused.
"It's a surprise" Cosima insisted.
"The things I do for you" Delphine said.
"Wait, wait. Okay lift up your foot up the curb. That's it, and the other one, walk forward. Keep coming, wait. I'm going to get the door. Right keep coming" Cosima called the instructions as Delphine gripped her hand tightly.
Delphine felt the warmth around her skin, and her ears heard the soft drum and bass of music.
"Wait, I'm going to get the door" Cosima said, pulling Delphine through the door seeing all her family and friends around the club that she hired.
She gave the thumbs up to the DJ who started playing Delphine's favourite song which brought a smile to the French woman's lips.
"Right ready" Cosima said.
Delphine ripped the eye mask off to get blown back with a shout of "SURPRISE, HAPPY BIRTHDAY"
Her eyes instantly to water at the effort and the incredible work Cosima had went to for her. She turned to her girlfriend, with teary eyes "I love you so much" she whispered kissing her lips impatiently, which made the crowd of their family and friends cheer and holler.
"Oi, Oi, get in there Cos" Sarah's voice distinctive in the crowd.
They both smiled out of the kiss, Sarah taking her sister in her arms with Alison and Helen close behind. Delphine hugged her sisters as they greeted them wishing her a Happy Birthday and congratulations.
It was a bright pink dress that caught her eye, Delphine instantly rushed over to her friend greeting her in a big bear hug, swaying back and forth "It's so good to see you" Delphine kissed her friends cheek
"You look so beautiful" Delphine beamed looking down at Krystal's pregnant stomach.
"I look like a beached whale. My feet are swollen, I can't wear heels. I constantly need the toilet; I can't sleep at night because she kicks all night. But it's a magical time" Krystal's voice became emotionally at the end of rant.
"I still can't believe that you are going to be a mum" Delphine shrieked hugging her again, lifting her spirits.
"And you an Aunt, oh my god, we are growing up" Krystal said
"Speak for yourself" Delphine bantered back.
"Can I steal her away for a dance?" Delphine asked Raj who gave her a thumbs up.
The blonde best friends made their way into the middle of the dance floor wiggling their hips and hold handing as they danced under the lights.
Cosima soon stole Delphine away from Krystal who was glad of it, as her feet were beginning to get tired. The brunette dragged her from the dance floor as the lights were turned on and quickly dimmed.
"Over here." She said, placing Delphine in a spot by the shoulders.
Two cakes came out, Sarah carrying one and Alison the other. Cosima watched her face light up with pure happiness as the crowd started singing Happy Birthday, seeing the blonde so happy made her heart swell, tears pricked her eyes but she dared herself not to cry. Not yet.
As the singing died down, Cosima clinked her beer bottle with Delphine's, getting the rooms attention.
"Hey. Hey" Cosima tried to get the room to quiet
"OI SHUT IT" Sarah roared silencing the room.
Delphine chuckled into the brunette's shoulder at her sister.
"Thanks Sarah." Cosima cleared the throat turning to face Delphine.
"As you guys know, I've been in love with this incredible woman, since like my eyes saw her. I had the most amazing year with you Delphine, and I never in my life, did I think that I would see you in this club, or that I would ever get to dance with you. Especially after I behaved like an asshole, but you did. And I am so grateful that you did, because I love you so much. In a way that words can't describe, you complete me. I miss you, when you go to the toilet. Okay well, maybe not but I never want to be separated from you, in this life or the next." Cosima bent down on one knee, holding up a ring
Delphine Cormier, will you marry me?" she asked,
"Oui, Yes" Delphine sobbed, her hands clutching the brunettes cheeks kissing her as their tears and tongue mingled together.
The photo hangs proudly in their living-room, with their family all squeezing in.
Never ever do they forget their anniversary, and most importantly Delphine finally gets the loving family that she has always wanted.
