And I couldn’t be happier.

We made it to the event building just before the time we were supposed to arrive. The coordinator led us inside to our table where most of them around us were already filled. Tess and Jonah, and their redheaded boys sat at one. The Xanders and their daughter, Kayla, took up residence at another, then my family, Dad and my brothers with their assortment of children and significant others, took up about three other tables, before Beck’s parents and still-single sister sat at the last.

It was strange how some things worked out in the end, but they always seemed to sort themselves through, one way or another, for better or worse. Something good, a hope to hold onto, always bloomed from the tragedy and suffering, making every dark patch worth fighting through.

And while Bailey-met-Beckett-on-the-night-of-the-worst-drunken-hookup-of-his-life wasn’t exactly a story we’d be telling our grandkids, it was something I’d always be grateful for, anyway.
