    One year later...

    Xzavier watched the dancing flames come over the paper. They ate at it until it turned to a small pile of ash. He watched it all, and he loved every minute of it.
    He was sitting by the fireplace-his fireplace; their fireplace-of their apartment. It wasn't a fancy fireplace, just a small niche in the wall with a fire and some ventalation. Even so, Xzavier loved it.
    Something made him look up at the clock on the wall. "Em," he called to the girl who was probably in the bedroom or bathroom. "What time's Lori supposed to come over?"

    It was a relaxing Sunday afternoon, the last day Xzavier would be able to say he was unemployed. He started his new job tomorrow, a desk jokey at the Police Department. It was small, he knew, but he would build on it. Plus, he needed money for the night classes he planned on taking. It wasn't just about him, anymore. He had Emily to look after, too.
    And he wouldn't have it any other way.

    Xzavier should have been preparing for Lori's arrival, the first time she'd come to their apartment. Xzavier couldn't say he and Lori were best friends, but they didn't really hate each other anymore.
    He could have been preparing for his job tomorrow. After all of his arrests and strikes on his record, he was amazed when they let him work at the Police Department. He aimed to impress, not just his bosses, but Emily, too.
    He should have been doing a number of other things, but instead he was staring into the eyes of a fire. It would always astonish him. Fire would always be a part of his life.
    Just like Emily.

    Emily popped her head out of the bedroom and looked at him. A smile spread across her face as she realized he was watching the fire, his favorite past-time. "She should be here any minute now." She replied and went back into the room to finish getting ready. After all, she did want to look her best for the woman who took care of her for ten years, but she was trying not to over do it.

    It had been about a month since she saw Lori last, since they didn't live together anymore, and Emily was very excited. The first time she'd seen Lori after she and X had run away Lori hadn't been to happy with her. But Emily convinced her, after a long time of talking, that she and X would be fine, and that she needed to trust him. Lori and X still weren't friends, but Emily was satisfied with the relationship they had established. They could be in the same room and not try to kill each other, and that was good enough for Emily.

    Things hadn't started off well for Emily and X. Emily lost her job in the first month, and they couldn't find anywhere to stay. But Emily soon found a job, which she moved up to being manager in, and not long after they found their apartment. Emily was happy, and she could see that X was too. He was a very different person than the one she'd met a more than a year ago.

    "X," Emily called, walking into the hallway, holding up two necklaces. "What do you think, the blue one, or the green one?" She asked, knowing he was probably going to laugh at her for asking.

    Xzavier listened to Emily's response. He walked to the window to check for Lori. He didn't know how she was coming-she wouldn't walk this far, would she?
    The more Xzavier thought about it, the more he realized it wasn't that far of a walk. He could probably walk from the apartment to Lori's in fifteen minutes or so if he powerwalked.
    He squinted as the sun shone on his eyes. "Think she's here, Em," he called.

    Xzavier looked over at Emily. She looked absolutely gorgeous. He was too stunned for a moment to hear her question.
    "The green one," he answered. "Brings out your eyes more." He walked towards her and gave her a soft kiss. "What do you think she'll say?" he asked. "Think she'll like it?"
    He looked around at the apartment. "Of course she will," he answered his own question.
    There was a knock at the door. Xzavier looked back at Emily. "You get it," he said.

    Emily leaned forward a little to look at the window when X told her that he thought Lori had made it. She smiled excitedly and waited for X's response about the necklace. He chose the green one, and kissed her. She loved it every time he did that. It always made her happy and excited.

    She opened her mouth to answer his question, when he answered it himself, then told her to answer the door. "Scardy cat." She said jokingly, and walked to the door, opening it and smiling at the lady who stood on the other side. "I'm so glad you made it!" She said happily, giving Lori a hug and stepping back to let her come in. Lori walked in and looked around, a pleased look spread across her face. "Not bad." She said with a nod to Emily. "Better than my place." She added. Both girls laughed.

    Her gaze fell on X, and she gave him a polite smile. "I hope your treating her well." She said to him. "Got a job yet?" She had always been harking on him about getting a job to support Emily, even if she did work herself.

    Xzavier laughed at Emily's remark. "Scaredy cat?" he repeated. "You're the one that's half feline."
    He watched her open the door, a million things running through his mind. There was Lori, same as he had left her. She made some joke that Xzavier didn't hear, and Emily started laughing.
    She was beautiful when she laughed.

    Lori looked directly at Xzavier. He gave half of a smile. "I'm treating her like a queen," he assured. "And I'll have you know that yes, I do have a job. As of tomorrow, I'll be working down at the PD."
    Xzavier smiled fully now. "I don't anticipate screwing this one up, either," he said.

    Xzavier walked over to Emily and placed an arm around her waist. "Look, a family reunion," he said and stared at the two girls in the room. "Because basically, that's what this is, right?"
    It was his way of saying that the three of them were family now, replacement for the blood relatives they lacked. It was his way of saying, We are related, now.

    Lori nodded. "That's good, Emily deserves nothing less." She threw a smile at Emily, who gave a shy one back. It took Lori a moment to comprehend What Xzavier had told her. "The PD? I wouldn't have guessed, what with the record you have." She said, then half smiled. "But its good that you've found a good job. You better keep it!" She said when he told her he didn't plan on screwing it up.

    A hint of a blush came to Emily's fave when X moved closer to her and put his arm around her waist. She smiled at his remark. They were a family, weren't they? They were a broken family, but a good family. That thought made Emily happy. Maybe, some day, they could make their family bigger, but that wouldn't be any time soon.
